Zohran Mamdani has fully balanced New York City’s $12 billion deficit — an uncomfortable reminder to the political establishment that governments can, in fact, function when taxpayer money isn’t funneled toward lobbyists wealthy benefactors

Nearly 50,000 people in the Lake Tahoe area have been told that their utility will stop providing power to them, because it's redirecting that power to data centers. /1

All the developers 404 Media talked to were excited to try using LLMs at work at first, or were at least curious about them. Their feelings about the tools, based on their personal experience, are now overwhelmingly negative. AI is rotting their brains www.404media.co/software-dev...

On a Microsoft Teams call, @josephcox.bsky.social interacted with a deepfake version of himself in realtime. This is the first time a journalist has exposed how the Haotian AI software works. Read now: www.404media.co/hello-boss-i...

Here's the horrifying truth & few in corporate media are willing to properly address it: Trump and Republicans are passing policies to deliberately kill Black & brown people, women, low income people & the disabled—and that's the point This is Structural Eugenics www.qasimrashid.com/p/trump-and-...

A private citizen steals a loaf of bread and it's 3 years in prison… A corp steals 29 million gallons of water and it's "oops."

In all my years covering this stuff, I have NEVER seen Americans so explicitly labeled terrorists like they are in the newly released national counterterrorism strategy 👇 www.kenklippenstein.com/p/insane-pre...

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #DV1 #ONEV1 De-Trumpification: stop the De facto Trump ownership of non-partisan institutions. De-Trumpification must start this year with the Democratic Party’s Midterm win in Congress and State/Local offices.

Putin's aide Ushakov: "Putin & Donald Trump have voiced essentially similar assessments of the Kyiv's regime behavior, headed by Zelenskyy, incited and supported by the Europeans..." An interesting attempt to group "terrorists" Ukraine and Europe together, and Russia& the US on the other side

The Birthday cake of Israel's National Security minister. Can you imagine any other country pulling a stunt like this?

I just gave the commencement address at Paul Quinn College — the oldest HBCU in Texas. I told them: “You have scrolled through more suffering, division, and chaos than any generation in human history. But as painful as it may be, your disillusionment is a superpower."

Seems like a good time to remind everyone that he posted these too:

"Emergent technologies – including generative AI and nudification tools – are becoming increasingly integral to the deliberate targeting and silencing of women in public life by lowering technical barriers to abuse while amplifying its reach": @thenerve.news.

What a horrible betrayal of justice. I have lost all respect for Sheldon Whitehouse. Unbelievable. 3 Senate Dems Vote To Advance Election Denier To Lifetime Court Seat share.google/yDd0rvyKyqOQ...

New York — Two years after students occupied Hamilton Hall (naming it "Hind's Hall" in ode to the little girl killed by Israeli forces), Columbia students & faculty are demonstrating on campus, honoring Palestinian scholars killed by Israel's genocide. Video: Sunrise Columbia

Today's report from the Labor Department was bad news, but it just confirms what we all see in CO-04 every day. - consumer prices in March up 3.3% from a year ago - gas prices increased by more than a dollar a gallon, on average since February - utility bills up 4-6% www.npr.org/2026/04/10/n...

He murdered Renee Nicole Good. Shot her three times and then called her a “f*cking b*tch”. Her last words? “It’s ok dude I’m not mad”. He got three days administrative leave before being transferred to another state. No punishment. No accountability. No justice.

So they finally admit it's a problem, and then pushes it off for the next generation to deal with. Their grandchildren will despise them someday.

Another fact you'll never hear the Trump regime acknowledge. Israeli settler/colonizers are driving Christians out of the West Bank. Not Palestinian Muslims. Not Hamas. Israeli colonizers backed by Netanyahu & the US Government are violently attacking Christians www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

It appears that the result of this conference panel was a half empty room with protestors outside, a few disruptions, and most people either boycotting or showing support for trans people and protestors. They were not able to sneak a conversion therapy panel through to unsuspecting doctors.

✊ Thousands of protesters in Israel are filling the streets in protest of Benjamin Netanyahu. They are demanding the immediate resignation of Netanyahu and a new investigation into the October 7 terrorist attacks. Bibi isn’t even liked in Israel. @ShadowofEzra

Standing alongside working people across Colorado to support passage of our legislation prohibiting surveillance wages and prices--the algorithmic theft that allows mega-corporations to spy on us to charge us more and pay us less.

A little-known law that lets the government sidestep the Constitution to spy on American citizens is set to expire at the end of this month. We need to make sure Democrats don’t reauthorize this civil liberties disaster. 👇

Sound on! You do not want to miss this. Listen to the whole thing. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Love this guy💞 This one of many of my favorite clips of McGovern ...he just so good😂

Keep Walking The Walk,Mayor Mamdani.......

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X. I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!). So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

Find out more about who is behind Trump's strategy to transform the country to match Christian nationalists’ fantasies and try to take over our elections so we can’t fight back.

Court To Bondi: Demanding Platforms Censor Speech And Bragging About It On Fox News Is, In Fact, A First Amendment Violation For the better part of five years, we've been treated to an elaborate performance about the unprecedented constitutional horror of "jawboning." Jim Jordan held hearings.…

Senator Slotkin says new NSPM-7 Joint Mission Center likely includes CIA and NSA, for "looking at...people who may just take a very different view on the world than the president."

ZOHRAN MAMDANI: "It is sad that for too many Americans when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, they have to turn to a history book."

Axon says the Fusus platform does not have cloud processing and runs on Evanston hardware. Kelly makes the good point that Fusus does not seem to help *prevent* crime. Kelly, my NIMBY queen, pop off.

Police rep says it's necessary, and been necessary for a while, because of mass casualty events where you are "on the hunt for a suspect who is at large" Note this is uh. Not the same as preventing the mass casualty event lmao.

Computers don't really do any math you can't do by hand but they just do it WAY WAY WAY FASTER. kelly says she wants to see a more itemized cost breakdown.
