"Earlier this year, Elon Musk built a gas-burning power plant large enough to power a small city, claimed it was exempt from air pollution laws, and placed it next to Boxtown, a Black neighborhood in Memphis where he had built a new data center. People in Boxtown started breathing polluted air – […]

US Congress voted 285–98 to condemn "socialism." 88 Democrats joined Republicans, including Hakeem Jeffries. What they mean by socialism is your access to healthcare, housing, safety regulations, and anything that benefits you instead of the oligarchy. There has been no vote to condemn fascism. #3E

Dear #getfedihired, Despite “my” contract ending with the end of the year, but the company being a side in that contract decided to kick out some people, including me, earlier. So their Christmas present for me is the lack of a job. So I'm looking for opportunities for a jack of all trades […]

#ukraine is on the path to win the war by wiping out Russia’s oil industry. To save lives, it’s time to take air superiority and Europe needs to help with this. We need to look at the top of the law of deminishing returns. Just a few Gripin E’s or Typhoons with a few AMRAAMs or European […]

Cloverdale, a tiny town in Sonoma County, California, is being invaded by secretive investors who want to build a new "town." Of course, the backers of "Esmeralda" have very deep ties to the Network State cult and Peter Thiel. My notes: www.thenerdreich.com/esmeralda-ne...

When it's observable that the very rich are steadily growing richer while the vast majority of people are growing poorer, it's obvious that the tax system is not neutral: it is actively redistributing wealth upwards. For the tax system to be neutral, it MUST tax the very rich much more. To do so […]

Wild graphic on front page of WSJ.

It’s a mob story indeed. Trump always visualizes himself as the don of the greatest mob family. I think we’re going to uncover facts that demonstrate his role was an American don, while others such as Putin were even higher leaders in the mob structure. @wdlindsy […]

We lawyers and legal scholars have an overriding ethical obligation to document the Trump regime’s constant use of bad faith legal moves and its bad faith legal arguments. One major feature of U.S. constitutional democracy is that it is supposed to instantiate a government FOR the people, that […]

I’m disgusted with the Democrats in the Senate. Abject capitulation for a promise that means nothing. Way to take your eye off the ball and turn the momentum that was building this last week against you and us. Your GOP colleagues are laughing their asses off at your cowardice and stupidity […]

RE: https://toot.cat/@riley/115523362183859311 Trump is projecting again. He expects relatives for every use of “trump”. He doesn’t know the meaning of “work”. It’s all about selling his soul for a buck.

France starved, Louis and Marie build magnificent buildings, threw fancy parties, and glutted on exotic foods. Too bad Trump slept through history classes. It didn’t turn out well for them, and I hope Trump eventually sees accountability.

The richest 1% of the country will back any number of dead kids and and traumatized city residents and hungry Americans in exchange for this. They’ll accept infinite harm to strangers to avoid paying anything toward our collective good.

This is posted by Patton Oswalt and I'm just really sick of the fact that we have to explain this to people on the Right, who will then try to argue that it's necessary & a good thing.

The current GOP lie is that they’re going to replace Obamacare with something better. Bullshit. In all of the majorities they’ve had since Obamacare passed, they’ve never once tried to replace it. They’ve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.

A friend told me that everyone is voting by provisional ballot until new machines can be brought in later this morning. There were also bomb threats in Paterson, Newark, Hackensack, and Lodi. All towns with a majority Democrat population. Just a Republican scare tactic to keep Dems from voting.

…In short, #trump has doubled down on the concept that he has ordered a resumption of explosive #nuclear testing — which the #us has refrained from for 33 years — to match what he contends were secret nuclear underground detonations, presumably by #russia, #china, & other nuclear-armed states […]
