A data center was just shut down in Wisconsin after the town council refused to have private talks with the developer and told them everything would include public approval That’s how it’s done, folks

I’ve decided to start a business. I’ll walk around rich neighborhoods at night, recording their comings and goings. Provide detailed information about the exact location of their expensive cars, and when they are most likely vulnerable theft. Then sell the information to anyone. #Flock. #Palantir

Australia has reached the “lets label anti fascist and anti genocide activism as terrorism” in case you are wondering how fucked we are.

Convo at the grocery store: “Do you ride your bike every day?” “Most days.” “I see you with it. In my country, I wasn’t allowed to ride bikes. Because woman. I’m going to learn to ride. When I do, I’m going to tell you.” — Thanks for telling me your story, Bahar. (I live for these moments.)

Facts suck, if you're delusional and in a cult.

On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂‍↕️

Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

Another Israeli airstrike in Gaza. More people murdered. Since the ‘ceasefire’ over 1,230 Palestinians have been murdered in Gaza,and over 4,000 injured. There is no ‘ceasefire’ Stop selling UK arms to Israel.

A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.

Awww….That idiot (aka Putain de Merde) in the White House missed the legal deadline for screwing up birthright citizenship. I liked the cartoon. I don’t care who boots him out of our country.
