Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans.
Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.
Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

You know what pisses me off, when conservatives are personally negatively impacted by policies that we told them what the consequences would be.....then they have the audacity to say "this isn't what I voted for". HELL YES IT IS EXACTLY what you voted for. You just refused to listen.

"It's not that we have a unitary executive, but we have a wayward executive...a corrupt executive," @gtconway.bsky.social tells @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social. "We have an executive who defies the law, who fails to execute the laws properly because he doesn't consider himself bound by the laws."

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

Every last ICE/J6er Agent needs to be charged, convicted then deported. They do not belong in America, they're the threat. I'm glad he spoke out. Nobody deserves that except the entire cabinet & they're lying prop spoxes.

The mainstream media just failed a basic civics test so badly that you'd think their brains have been pickled by the kinds of folks who spend all their time on X (oh, wait…). Headlines across major outlets are breathlessly reporting that Donald Trump "blocked states from passing AI laws" with an executive order. Except, that's not how any of this works, and anyone who stayed awake during middle school social studies should know better.

Achieving genuine peace requires more than the ceremonialism of signing documents and empty declarations of success by President Trump; It requires implementation and inclusive processes to address root causes of conflict.

Wow. Indiana Gov.

Holy shit. The US is pulling ALL conventional forces out of Europe by 2027. That should make the US top brass sit up. Now they know they are working for a Russian asset - or maybe not. They could very well be that treasonous.
