@jamestalarico.bsky.social for Texas US Senate gets it - under his opponent Ken Paxton and Gov. Abbott, data centers are running amok in TX. Talarico has a sensible plan to regulate data centers. Texas, he is the right choice for your next senator, not the corrupt, 15 home owning Paxton.
Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
James Talarico on Texas officially banning THC: “Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst."
I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.
Apple workers could have gotten $4 MILLION each over 8 years. Instead, Apple spent $650 BILLION on stock buybacks. Shareholders got rich. Workers got nothing. This isn't investment. It's theft. Tax the rich.
RFK jr assured us the Covid vaccines where a nefarious plot to depopulate America. Out of the 250 million people who got the vaccines, only 9 died. 1.2 million Americans died from Covid by comparison.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden? $30 million. The amount special interests have spent against @abdulelsayed.bsky.social in the Michigan Senate race? $60 MILLION. Twice as much to try and buy one Senate seat. It’s the many vs. the money. Vote for Abdul.
Donald Trump’s war with Iran is costing Americans every time they fill up their tank. Meanwhile: Exxon’s quarterly profits doubled to $14.5 billion. Chevron’s nearly quadrupled to $12.1 billion.

Media types are like "He's one of the reasonable Republicans." There is nothing fucking reasonable about sending $200 billion on a foreign country when 40,000 Americans die every year from lack of proper medical care. #DSA
Thread (1 of 5). Time to set the record straight, MAGAs will say “fake news” but it’s not, and the truth is the truth. A thread on US assistance to Ukraine. Total U.S. defense spending from full scale invasion to today: (Feb. 2022–mid 2026) ~$4.2–4.5 trillion Cont...
Of course it’s breaking the law! But as a joke of a country that can’t even prosecute a blatant coup, I have no doubt this will continue unchecked.
The Trump Crime Family is committing theft at rate not seen since the collapse of the Soviet Union. From insider trading off the Iran War to giving his family hundreds of billions in contracts. Then there is Jared Kushner. Every cent has to be clawed back with interest.
The American Legal system is based entirely on who you are NOT what you did.
Teaching students new ideas and concepts is the opposite of indoctrination. Indoctrination is telling people 1 idea over and over, like religion or how glorious Orange Shitler is.
Gerrymandering lets politicians choose their voters instead of the other way around. Until we end that, it will remain difficult to achieve the things most Americans already agree on.

Christianity makes zero sense. If Satan is evil, we would he punish bad people? That would make him good, not evil.
Epstein files aren't worth seeing or discussing, but Fauci's personal diary...? THERE's our new distraction. I'd listen to this remarkable woman.
RFK is "the" vaccine misinformation super spreader. Basically patient Zero of anti-science propagandists. Together with Trump, they killed a million Americans.
When will Trump apologize for killing 1 million Americans with lies, theft, and deliberate mismanagement.
Only in Trumpland can you molest little girls and only get a slap on the wrist. It also helps to be white and living in Texas.
One of the things I love about Abdul El-Sayed is that he is openly saying America is better with immigrants than without.
This is really really dumb. The current inflation has 1 cause, Trump. Raising rates aren't going to remove his illegal tariffs. And it's not going to end his illegal wars.
Persistent inflation concerns are expected to push the central bank toward an interest rate hike.
