Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater.
This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning.
Never doubt your power to change the system.
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
Screenshot of a tweet by Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) noting that Stephen Miller nearly uses the phrase "final solution" when discussing Trump's Iran policy before catching himself. The embedded video shows Miller appearing on Fox's Hannity, with a chyron reading "Trump Projects Strength on the World Stage."
It sure sounds like what he nearly said.

Former TIME editor Richard Stengel: “He is repeating every foreign and domestic policy mistake the US has made over the last 5 decades, but he’s doing it with a gracelessness, cluelessness, and corruption that has no precedent.”
The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.
EVERYONE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT THIS:
Conflict of interest doesn’t even begin to cover it.
Chad Bianco really seized over 650,000 ballots based on conspiracy theories that don’t even hold up to basic scrutiny. No credible fraud. No real discrepancy.

A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.
For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.
One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.
Time to impeach. He's done.
Peter Magyar’s Tisza, which scored a landslide win over Viktor Orban's Fidesz, shot to prominence following a controversial presidential pardon in a child sex abuse case.
Viktor Orbán has been ousted—and efforts by Washington and Moscow to prop the autocratic leader up give his defeat implications that extend far beyond Hungary, @isaacstanleybecker.bsky.social reports from Budapest.
AP publishes a good multi-state rundown on pushback all over the country against plans for huge Trump prison camps:

-Delivered millions in restitution for workers cheated by gig companies
-Cracked down on predatory landlords
-Launched the first stage of a universal childcare program
-Fixed thousands of potholes in NYC streets
This is what leadership looks like.
I feel like this should be a bigger story.

Remember when Trump fawned over his wealthy donors, calling them “rich as hell” while promising to give them tax cuts?
That's one campaign promise he didn't break.

"What we have learned is that local resistance works when it is persistent, scrappy, and deeply informed. This... fight has been built on facts, records, legal pressure, public health evidence, and relentless visibility..."
