Huh? The guy who founded Playboy had nudes of young girls? The guy who lived in a bathrobe & had blow out parties? Who would believe it? Old, saggy, wealthy white guys; is there ever enough for them? And a 60 yr age gap kinda gives it away. 🤮But she's "shocked!" www.huffpost.com/entry/hugh-h...

A new report from Gartner argues that by 2028, misconfigured AI will shut down the national critical infrastructure in a G20 country. www.networkworld.com/article/4132... This should concern everyone, especially those with the levers of power #AICrisis #BlueCrew

Shooting people in the street. Ripping parents from children. Americans stopped, detained and killed. Now, ICE wants to build a new 400-bed facility in New Hampshire? Governor Ayotte should be doing everything in her power to block this. Enough is enough.

A seventh child has died from influenza-related causes in Massachusetts. The state's public health commissioner said last month that there is a "simple, effective, and available way to address these concerns: vaccines."

Not a single one of ID representatives can articulate how women are supposed to vote in the election. "Read the SAVE Act to find out what documentation is accepted" Guess what? Marriage certs are not one of the docs. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO VOTE?

Jamie Raskin...after reviewing Epstein files at DOJ: evidence suggests victims as young as 9.

Breaking MS NOW: Some of the Epstein docs the DOJ invited members of Congress to view are STILL redacted, despite promises otherwise. Raskin says DOJ's reading room has just four computers. It would take seven years to get through the files in the current conditions established by the DOJ.

Why isn’t every politician, leader, prosecutor, and news channels focused on this. The President is accused with significant proof of killing and raping minors.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

For the infirm and mentally ill.

Many people think of Nazi concentration camps as purpose-built institutions. But many of the concentration and internment camps in Germany and occupied countries were repurposed buildings: asylums, barracks, farm complexes, even hotels. former Ilag VIII internment camp, Toszek, Poland

That's all YOUR MONEY, Americans.

Purchasing and converting these warehouse detention camps will cost the U.S. government billions of dollars. So far ICE has purchased at least half a dozen warehouses at a cost of $70-$110 million each. It'll cost billions more to refit them into detention camps, and hire staff.

The largest federal prison in the nation is Fort Dix, which has a rated capacity of 4,600 people. The largest of these warehouse camps may hold more than twice that number of people. The federal government hasn't operated a prison camp inside the United States that large since Japanese Internment.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps. If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

In the last month ICE has bought warehouses in: - Hagerstown, MD: $102 million - Surprise, AZ: $70 million - Hamburg, PA: $87 million - Tremont, PA: $120 million - San Antonio, TX: $82 million - El Paso, TX: $123 million - Social Circle, GA: price unknown This is unprecedented.

This week Trump urged Republicans to “nationalize” elections. It may be one of the most anti-democratic ideas he’s floated and follows a well-worn authoritarian playbook, slowly chipping away at free & fair elections. Our democratic institutions are strong—but this is deeply disturbing

It appears @davidcorn.bsky.social was right. NBC did censor Green Day. They're likely terrified of Brendan Carr, who's apparently "investigating" The View for not bringing on enough weird, boring MAGAs to anesthetize their audience. www.themirror.com/entertainmen...

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.
