I had a moment of realizing just how disgusted, frustrated, and angry I am with the federal government every day. From Trump and the republicans, the bulk of the democrats and the Supreme Court.

NEW | California just reached a world-first solar milestone Over HALF (51%) of electricity generation across the whole month of May came from solar power. Battery storage is the big difference maker, enabling California to push the share of solar generation to this level.
Florida homeowners pay $5,520 more a year than Californians for the same coverage. Why is California cheaper? Proposition 103, a law voters passed requiring insurers to justify every rate hike. Republicans call that overregulation. Florida families call it $460 a month. #Florida #Insurance
Interesting comment in this article: techcrunch.com/2026/07/21/o... "It’s unclear whether OpenAI will face any legal consequences as a result of the breach, although it’s likely that the models’ actions violated the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act."

OpenAI has come forward to claim responsibility for the Hugging Face breach, saying it was the result of internal testing gone awry.

Wow. The ICE shooter in Maine asked his ex-wife to "to lie for him and to cover for his character." She said he was abusive and had previously reported concerns about him to his military superiors. He was also a volunteer firefighter, but was removed after several spats with department leadership.
ICE agent who killed man in Biddeford identified as former Maine law enforcement officer
An ex-wife told the Press Herald that David Brouillette called her and admitted he was the ICE agent who shot Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero.

It is because members of Congress treat Congress like a country club. A club that “normal” Americans can’t join. They all chum around with each other, even when things like Roe vs Wade gets overturned… since they are living in the country club bubble.
It is not a great look that some senior Democratic leaders have had time to put out statements on social media about how much they'll miss Lindsey Graham but haven't had time to talk about these latest executions carried out by Trump's gestapo in American streets.
Statement that matches my anger and disgust. Said in a clear and historical way. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8GtTk1Y/

It was a 5-4 decision you feckless nothing. What are your plans to reform the Supreme Court? Why can't you lead? Why are you all so useless?
Despite Trump’s best efforts to bully them, the Supreme Court just reaffirmed that if you are born in America, you belong in America.
This type of article is gaslighting to the maximum. Donating $26 million is roughly .011% of Jeff Bezo’s net worth… that would be the equivalent of writing articles for somebody with the median networth in the United States donating $21.13. luxurylaunches.com/other_stuff/...
While Elon Musk fills the sky with internet satellites, the ever-selfless Jeff Bezos has donated $26 million to fund an advanced orbital network that can scan the Earth from space, detect wildfires as...

Sitting here thinking today about John Brown, who we laud as a hero today. Many folks in the South considered him to be a domestic terrorist. Mikie Sherrill would have told him to go quietly sit in a field and express his views about slavery "peacefully."
