Big Tech is trying to greenwash data centers and wants us to believe that they can be powered with their own clean energy. But we’ve got the receipts to show that data center energy resources are FAR from renewable 👇

A “commander had “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ”. @us.guardian.com

Short of an invasion, the Islamic state in Iran seems likely to survive bombing. If opposition to Israeli is defined as anti-semitic, then it seems Americans are likely to become more “anti-semitic”. This would be a disastrous outcome for everyone.

On this day in 1895, funeral services were held in Washington, D.C. for Frederick Douglass. The Library is home to the Frederick Douglass Papers, which include dozens of bereavement telegrams that were sent to his widow following his death. 🧵

“For all the moral panic about resurgent antisemitism over the past several years, much of it aimed at Palestine solidarity activists on the left, nothing has encouraged the real thing quite like the Epstein files.”
AIPAC, crypto, and AI industry Super PACs are spending millions on upcoming Democratic primaries.
If the Democrats wants to win back voters' trust, they must reject the influence of these Big Money donors. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uzc57eD3cWI

Upstate transit riders pay taxes that fund roads used by drivers. It’s disappointing Hochul doesn’t see transit riders as an important constituency.

Working with the fantastic Governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry, we are going to send a great hospital boat to Greenland to take care of the many people who are sick, and not being taken care of there. It's on the way!!! President DJT
Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good.
Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies.
So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.

"It is beyond comprehension that the Senate confirmed this man to oversee America’s health."
the right really hates it when you call their planned concentration camps "concentration camps." their whole program works only if you make migrants into a scary mass of undocumented criminals coming for white families. its a lot harder when you humanize it. keep it up.
Monroe County's cameras are not Flock and Sheriff's Office told us they cannot share data with ICE without a judicial warrant.
Did the early voting thing in my state's primary today. Chose the progressive candidate when that was an option. No, I don't think we're gonna solve this mess solely through voting but given that I'm the kind of person they want to disenfranchise, it felt a nice piece of spite to vote while I can.

I’m tired of “both sides” arguments and challenges. “My side” is not always right, but the “other side” is wrong. It is attempting to destroy any real dialogue and aims to deceive us about the power of economic and political elites.

The draft Farm Bill released by Chairman GT Thompson of the House Agriculture Committee last week is a slap in the face to consumers, sustainable farmers and animals. Urge your members of Congress to say NO to this disastrous bill now: https://fwwat.ch/4c2Br1d
This is a warning to Democrats. They must pivot from the immigration issue to cost of living issues before Trump out maneuvers them.

We are going to be living with these tools of oppression for a long time, unless we organize an opposition strong enough to eliminate them.
