How Putin is stealing the 2024 election. Trump isn't the only Nazi on Putin's payroll. Putin is financing Nazi parties in every democracy, and nobody is doing anything to stop him. Soon it will be too late.

In April 2024, Trump asked Big Oil execs for a $1 billion donation in exchange for deregulation and tax cuts.

How Trump Will Change the World The contours and consequences of a second-term foreign policy.

The professor mentioned above is Peter Feaver, who opposed Trump and still does, and thinks of Trump’s foreign policy as nihilistic transactionalism easily manipulated by chaos agents. Which sounds right to me. Here’s his analysis about what’s going to happen: www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

Just from a business perspective i don’t understand how these guys think allowing offensive bigoted crap on their platforms will be productive for them. Do they think there’s a larger market for people who want to alienate women and minorities than everybody else?

OMG YES!!!!!!

AI Needs So Much Power, It’s Making Yours Worse There’s a strong link between proximity to AI data centers and higher levels of distorted power in residential areas

AI data centers are multiplying across the U.S. and sucking up huge amounts of power.

New evidence shows they may also be distorting the normal flow of electricity for millions of Americans

Obligatory reminder that we had an effective vaccine for Lyme disease a quarter century ago, anti-vaxxers sued it out of circulation for humans, but since medicine for dogs is only lightly regulated our pooches have continued to enjoy protection denied to their owners.

Harris got the 3rd highest popular vote count in history. trump simply got more, given the global anti-incumbent sentiment globally.

When democrats lose elections they are told to change. When republicans lose election, they are never told to moderate. It's always about going to the right.

We have a peculiar historical event shaping up where the oligarch billionaire class is about to fleece this country while most of their supporters are working people who are convinced that they are on their side because they hate migrants & trans people.

While Hegseth complains about the “Left” smearing him with “fake, anonymous sources & BS stories,” remember that the abuse allegations against him came from his own mother.

Tammy Duckworth on Tulsi Gabbard: "I think she's compromised ... Russian controlled media called her a Russian asset."

Trump’s picks to destroy America.

This is a must watch!

Post showing interview with Brendan Carr: Trump's nominee for FCC Chairman Brendan Carr suggests that the FCC will go after CBS for editing their 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris. Trump called for 60 Minutes to be taken off the air numerous times during his campaign because of this interview.

A key early goal of fascism is to neutralize the media as a guardrail.

Brendan Carr wrote the FCC chapter in ‘Project 2025.’ Now he’s Trump’s pick for the agency | CNN Business President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for chairman of the Federal Communications Commission signaled that it won’t be business-as-usual at the country’s communications regulatory agency

Donald Trump has picked Brendan Carr as his FCC chairman.

Carr was a co-author of Project 2025 and wrote an entire section about the govt agency.

Remember how Trump said he didn't know anything about Project 2025 or who was behind it?

It’s Putin
