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.
It really seems that his objective is to destroy our country.
Laura Ingraham invited disillusioned Democrats who don't align with the DSA platform to support the GOP. She thinks they should join a party that rubber stamps anything and everything their glorious leaders asks of them - including covering up for a deceased sex trafficker.

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"
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.

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."

I’m glad the President has his priorities straight.

On one hand, it's a good thing CBS finally told the truth. On the other hand, CBS can still go fuck themselves. Bullshit artist Bari Weiss and the Ellison family, even with all their money, can't buy back credibility. And smart Americans will never forgive them for what they did to Stephen Colbert.
UPDATE: CBS News reverses course, airs story on 9/11 families supporting Mamdani

He was so proud, & bragging about it..Texas GOP has a history of throwing out ballots, by the millions…They have gerrymandered to their hearts’ content. They are working towards closing down half the voting locations in a battleground county….All before Trump’s Fixer AG joins with his shenanigans.
Ken Paxton is on camera saying he threw away 2.5 million ballots in Harris county. Republicans are throwing votes away
GOOD NEWS!! IT seems they BACKTRACKED after the sustained outrage!!!! GOOD JOB. KEEP FIGHTING!! bsky.app/profile/jenr...
Jen Rice@jenrice.bsky.social · yesterdayBIG PLOT TWIST in TX: Tarrant County's GOP officials, faced with intense public outrage about huge cuts to the battleground county's polling locations in November, have decided to delay their final vote on the plan so more polling places can be added
In Texas, Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare cleared the meeting room, silencing public opposition to the GOP plan to eliminate half of the battleground county’s Election Day voting locations before the midterms.
WATCH — Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social on Trump’s insider trading: “If you pay Trump $100,000 a month, he will give you early access to White House announcements on economic and trade policy. None of this is normal, and a lot of this is illegal.”
The same old Susan Collins charade. As soon as a controversial nominee or a bill has enough votes to pass, she announces she will vote no when it doesn’t matter. She never casts a deciding vote against Trump. Now she will claim this shows how she is so “independent.”
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.
Fifty years from now, historians will conclude that Trump's decision to go to war in Iran was likely driven principally by a desire for personal self-enrichment. The Trump and Kushner families likely executed billions in oil futures contracts and enhanced their wealth by untold sums by manipulating
