A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job.
One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution.
Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?

I am begging every Senate Democrat to vote against confirmation of this clown. Take a stand. Don't try to triangulate. This is an easy call.

Alan Dershowitz: I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party turned 18
Former Capitol Police officer Shauni Kerkhoff doesn't say how much she wants from the Blaze for accusing her of being the J5 pipe bomber, but it's going to be a big number.

They're just little guys. You can look at them for free and you can look at them up close if you pay for Bird Premium (binoculars or camera). They're just doing behaviors. They will never email you.
“Instead of site visits, Cal/OSHA merely sends a letter to employers so that they can “self-inspect” and report their conclusions back to Cal/OSHA. These “letter investigations” now account for 60% of Cal/OSHA enforcement actions.”

WARREN: Name one aspect of President Trump's economic agenda with which you disagree
KEVIN WARSH: He said he thought I'm out of central casting. I think I'd look older, grayer, and maybe show up with a cigar
WARREN: Quite adorable
WARREN: That's not my question. Are you refusing to tell us if you have investments in vehicles set up by Jeffrey Epstein?
KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed
Trump: "I would've won Vietnam very quickly if I were president. Look at Venezuela. I took it over in 45 minutes."
WARNOCK: What grade would you give the American economy?
WARSH: Well, if i gave a student anything other than an A, the dean would summon me because I would've hurt his self-image
WARNOCK: Consumer confidence is at a record low. That's Americans' grade on the economy
GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?
WARSH: That is, senator.
GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.
In the national divorce we are now adding "heterosexual marriage" to the NFL, butter, cooking oil, being attracted to adult women, standup comedy, Bud Light, and Catholicism. This list will update until morale improves.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "I'm pretty confident coal will lead the world in global electricity production when I die"
I’ve been thinking about doing a meta story on this for a while: the second trump administration is so pathetically, world historically psychotic that you likely don’t know what’s happening with his labor department. It’s a constant stream of scandals and excess
Constant.
wait a minute if tim apple leaves apple do they still get to call it apple or does he take his name with him

"BP’s first completely new oilfield in the Gulf since the company’s Deepwater Horizon disaster 16 years ago.
It will be deeper than Deepwater Horizon, and in riskier waters... drilling 6 miles below the sea floor, deeper than the height of Mt. Everest"

One of the Sandy Hook families lives in hiding 1500 mi away from their baby’s grave due to people stalking them.
The graves of multiple children have been defaced.
One of the fathers had to submit DNA evidence to prove his son was a REAL HUMAN BEING after Alex Jones’ book said he never existed.
Of COURSE he's insider trading. He's a crook, he's ALWAYS been a crook, he's using the presidency to make billions.
He ran to stay out of jail, to make money and to feel powerful, because that's what a narcissist like him gets off on. It was never about helping people.
Profile of the nose section of a B-17 bomber painted in olive drab and gray. Under the cockpit is a painting of a pinup-style lady who happens to have a guillotine for a torso. There are arms in the sleeves of a military jacket extending from the sides of the guillotine frame, one is holding an empty basket and the other is saluting. Below the hole where heads go sides wearing a short, pleated, olive drab skirt and her legs, covered in gartered nylons are curled up under her. A discarded crown is upside down behind her. In front of her across the nose is text reading ‘Maybe it will happen today’. Much of the rest of the nose is covered in mission markers but instead of bombs they are small images of guillotines.
Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.
You watch Jon Ossoff speak like this about the actual stakes & then you watch Andy Beshear speak about Funny Words, & the abject poverty of the latter approach to Democratic politics in 2026 is so stark that you don't know whether to laugh or cry about the latter.
This is as good as everyone's saying it is. The anti-corruption message is a good one, imo
A step away from asking the Russians to investigate their own influence operations in the US. The guiding principle of Trump policy is that Russian ops are good because they support him personally. The guiding principle of Russian policy is that Trump is good because he wrecks the US & helps Russia.
