Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?
for as long as i've been alive, republicans have ran the same playbook: a few weeks before voting begins, they roll out completely fabricated smear campaigns. these things are always coordinated, so the talking points take over the news. the party is never electorally punished for their dishonesty.
This is devastating. There are only 74 Southern Resident Killer Whales left and they rely on endangered Chinook salmon for survival. I'm fighting to urgently invest in salmon recovery and to create a better ecosystem so that we can help support these orcas' survival.

Ukraine blows up Russian data centres and immediately and mysteriously online talk about Germany’s Far Right AfD virtually disappears. Stop Putin you stop the Far Right.
One of reasons finance bros like Bessent hate Warren is misogyny of course but Also the fact that she knows their language and how the sausage is made in the financial world and routinely humiliates them publicly

Zelenskyy: “This week was very difficult for us, not only geopolitically, but also because of massive Russian attacks on our civilian infrastructure. They attacked our energy sector 196 times, our gas and oil 20 times. So far, they've killed 153 civilians.
If you're a reporter asking a candidate to denounce a foreign terrorist group simply because he shares the same religion, you are a gutter bigot of the worst fucking kind. Do they ask Mike Rogers to denounce Christian terrorists like Tim McVeigh, Eric Robert Rudolph and Robert Lewis Dear? No? Huh
James Fallows@jfallows.bsky.social · 6h ago@meetthepress.com interview w @abdulelsayed.bsky.social is 100% gotcha, starting w his criticizing Obama 14 years ago, at age 27. Two Qs on that, then 'can you deny ties to Muslim Brotherhood' etc. He handles them all with aplomb, and keeps coming back to economy, corruption, etc. But COME ON.
The misogyny in this letter is appalling and if Bessent had ever sent something like this to a woman colleague in the private sector he’d have been sued for gender discrimination and fired. What an asshole

Very dystopian that on the article about a A.I. data center poisoning the air, there's a little rainbow A.I. chatbot button just lurking at the edge, waiting to poison the air some more to answer your banal question

In a story on political violence (where they depict the targets as equally democratic and republican), the @nytimes.com gives a sympathetic ear to a member of Congress who was part of January 6.
Political violence is a serious issue. But it’s not a “both sides” issue. The leaders of the Democratic Party do not call for violence, do not elevate violent supporters, do not pardon violent thugs who attack our seat of government and our elections. America is under threat from the right.

Opponents of the proposed billionaire tax in California raised over $300 million, which is 10 times more than what supporters raised. Opposition funding came mostly from tech barons and venture capitalists, with a third coming from Google co-founder Sergey Brin. Gavin Newsom opposes the proposal. 🧵

When Donald Trump says that the war to Ukraine wouldn't have happened if he had been president, he is not only lying, he is in fact obfuscating his specific role in what happened.
It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.
David S. Bernstein @dbernstein.bsky.social · yesterdayRepublican US Rep Brian Fitzgerald tweets that he will introduce a bill to block purchases of Russian oil.
