Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

This could wind up being the most-watched newsmagazine segment in television history!!
Congratulations to the Ellisons and Bari Weiss!!!
Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.
Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.
“That’s what we’re seeing with the disparity in how the C-suite is treated in the courts, and how regular people are treated in the streets.”
Former FTC Commissioner @bedoyausa.bsky.social exposes Trump’s two-tiered justice system.
It was Republicans, including Ryan McMahon, that were against the switch so maybe there is something else going on.
The richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?
It is not “deal-making.” It is extortion built on Christopher Rufo’s idea of “taking down” one or more elite university.

Jerry Garcia on a boat flipping a peace sign ✌️

If folks had voted for the Black lady who wanted to tax the rich and give everyone else a tax cut, we wouldn’t be having this problem.
This guy nails it. 🔥
Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq
In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam.
It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.
This. Is. Very. Good.
The World Cross Country Championships is in Tallahassee in January.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suggested allowing bird flu to spread, so as to identify birds that may be immune. Veterinary scientists said that would be inhumane, dangerous and have enormous economic consequences.
The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.
If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Good morning…
I declined a work trip that was supposed to happen in May. They were very understanding.
