Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

Alt-right Christian groups are now pushing a new Rapture and 3 Days of Darkness date. They are saying it will come with Earthquakes, black man made skies, and the eclipse. They are now saying it will come with the eclipses 8/12. I’m not religious, but I like to keep 👀 on their ways.
🚨 HAPPENING NOW 🚨 Women's Marchers have been arrested in the Capitol for standing vigil for the people killed by ICE. #AbolishICE llustrations by @channeldraw
El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."
Next time there's an insurrection, Capitol Police should shoot to kill all of the insurrectionists immediately because that's the only way to get justice.
I guess the cat is out of the bag, to coin a phrase. Ronaldo has graciously agreed to consider taking the role after much pleading from MGM. He wishes to be paid in wheatgrass and tube treats.
James Bond producer shares update on 007 casting: ‘It’s got to be really different’
ICE set a record in July. 51,000 arrests. Yet…we watch the biggest criminal in US history…walk around unscathed.

Apple got a $2.2 billion tariff refund check. Amazon got $600 million.: Walmart got $10 Billion. So basically they got to raise all the prices then cash in?
Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.
The Seattle library levy is on track to pass with 80% voting yes. The Seattle Times came out against it and was resoundingly ignored. Seattle voters want nice things and are willing to pay for them.
So far, voters overwhelmingly approve Seattle library levy

They indicted an Olympian for damage their own contractor caused. 5 hours cuffed. National smear. Then dismissed “without prejudice” so they can do it again whenever they want. Prosecutors get immunity. Does this poor man even get an apology? #USDemocracy #RisingBlue apple.news/AEfSKoBgCSa2...

Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
The DOJ says it won't release unredacted victim info, but it remains unclear who the DOJ considers to be the "victims", young girls, or old rich men?
The state said it needs the records to investigate allegations of abuse at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch.
