Check it out:

Number go up Our charts tell the story of oligarchy in overdrive.

AI lobbying is skyrocketing. Meta spent more on lobbying in 2025 than America’s three largest oil and gas companies combined.

By 2030, data centers will consume as much energy as 41 million US homes.

Al Gore: Trump administration is the most corrupt in history The former vice president rebukes Trump’s attack on Iran and condemns the administration’s dismantling of climate regulations.

Palantir wants to bring back the draft (And also the Axis Powers.)

Should men like Alex Karp decide what this country is? He certainly thinks so.

I've always admired Governor Moore's dedication to service and his willingness to stand up resolutely especially in the face of adversity (this administration thinking that they call bully Maryland into submission.) Great to be in St Mary's County. Im running be your next fighter in Congress!

Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.
