It was great joining @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @ginafortexas.bsky.social today in Texas. They're working hard to make a difference in the lives of all Texans, and will be able to do even more as your next Senator and Governor. Let’s get it done, Texas!

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, passed by Democrats, capped Medicare Part D drug costs at $2,000 (now $2,100 for 2026 adjusted for inflation). This life-saving benefit helps seniors with cancer and remains active. Mentioning this here and now, before lying Donnie tries to take credit for it

A timelapse of the 3 minute walk it now takes to get from the current waterline to where it was just 5 years ago. The drought is real. And Alberta cannot afford AI datacentres.

"The Mikisew Cree First Nation (MCFN) is suing the governments of Alberta and Canada for the effects it says nearby industrial development and activity such as oilsands mines have had on its territory over the years." #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

GNB itself has decent AI policies and info but they’re all behind SharePoint and not publicly accessible at all. Tricky for people to find and use them. I don’t know why NB’s AI policies and guidance docs are so secretive; they should be public

“My childhood home is being taken by @GeorgiaPower to supply power to a new data center…” 🤔 They are now seizing people’s homes in Georgia via eminent domain to build power lines for a $17 billion data center. One has been forced into Utah. And xAI in Memphis. And on and on.

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

"Forty-one Texas Democrats sent Abbott a letter pointing out that in 2023, a Christian church in North Richland Hills booked a city-owned waterpark for a private faith event. They didn’t get a letter from the governor or a funding threat. Weird how that works."

Yesterday a California woman pled guilty to acting as an illegal foreign agent. Faces 10 years in prison. Her crime? At behest of China, posting propaganda on a news website she ran. So, uh … crazy timing for allegation Bari Weiss let Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu influence CBS coverage.

X derives its power from newsmakers and influencers choosing to post their content there If official and influential accounts stop posting there, it’ll just turn into right-wing influencers yelling at each other and everyone else will get bored and leave

For the next one, I need someone with acting chops in Nanaimo between 30 and 50 who can play a counsellor/therapist. No memorization needed, it's only a few lines, but must have an office that looks like where someone would see a counsellor. This you? Please contact me at tally.so/r/3NP8O0 🙂

I NEED AN ACTOR 🎭 I know this is a long shot... I'm making a video series about buying local Canadian-made snack products (it's basically a PSA; I'm not being paid by any brands to do it). 1/2 cont...

A 10-year-old wrote MAGA Congresswoman Virginia Foxx for a school project. He chose to write about an electric vehicle tax credit. He thought it was good for the environment. Virginia responded by attacking him and his teacher for being propagandized. These people have power over your life.

“We have watched those with power and privilege manipulate the system, shielding themselves from accountability while survivors have suffered in silence.” ~ Lauren Hersh Survivors were silenced. The powerful protected their own. Keep talking about Epstein files. Survivors deserve truth. #SheShed

So it turns out OSAP is actually a pretty efficient system and only about 0.3% of money given out per year (out of $2 billion in total!) is wrongly allocated. Damn what happened to that crime ring Doug Ford warned us about where students were using all their OSAP to buy cologne

Just PSA that if you're resisting slopAI then these people are not your friends and should not be allowed to speak for you.

“I don’t think about anybody.” The ads write themselves. Voters, remember this in November.

The comments made by a senior ICE official at a trade show highlight how Palantir is increasing the speed at which ICE operates. Most people detained by ICE have no criminal conviction.

This is my life as well

The RCMP are investigating, the auditor general is working on a report, and Albertans also deserve a full public inquiry. If there is nothing to hide, then this wouldn't be a problem.

The DOJ filed a lawsuit against Denver CO, alleging the city’s 37-year-old assault weapons ban violates the 2nd Amd. Denver restricts certain semi-automatic AR-15 type rifles and high-capacity magazines. Denver’s mayor says they’ve kept 'weapons of war' off their streets.🧵 #DemsAbroad

Secure AI sites are a myth, they are harvesting your data to make money and train Ai. The only safe way is to host your own local #Ai #SayNotoAI #Ontpoli #Canada www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/poli...

172 reports of sexual abuse and assault at the Tacoma’s Northwest ICE Detention Center. And instead of accountability, survivors were met with failed investigations, ignored evidence, and a system that protects private prisons over human lives.

Governments are meant to be caretakers - to look after & improve the things we care about, that serve & support us. But Danielle Smith & the UCP are destroyers, willing to undermine & tear down every institution we depend on, all for their own political gain. It has to stop. #abpoli

Child protective services ripped a 14-year-old from her home to stop her from leaving the state for an abortion. They also threatened her mother with murder charges and the removal of her other child if they crossed state lines for care. So please don't tell me Republicans aren't banning travel.

The Trump White House freaked out so much at the political disaster they created for themselves with Minnesota and other viral images of their roving, trigger happy crackdowns that they were forced to make their secret police force more secretive, but they’re still committing lawless abuses and…

Don't tell us this isn't about denying Black people representation. It always has been.

Trump Admin has cut aid to Ukraine by roughly 99 percent and shamelessly cozied up to Putin. Even allowing Russia to benefit financially from our costly war with Iran. Good news: Ukraine is becoming more self-reliant and mounting a more effective defence against Russia. Slava Ukraini! #MEpolitics

Survivors to return to ‘scene of the crime’ for shadow congressional hearing into abuses committed by Epstein

🚨🚨🚨

In 2012, former child actor Brock Pierce emailed Epstein, “I had a great time with the girls. Hope they had fun too. Thanks.” Last week, Brock helped to unveil the golden statue of Trump... You are the company you keep. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks newrepublic.com/post/210269/...

ICE: “Any claim that there are subprime conditions at ICE Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma are FALSE." If that’s true, let our health inspectors in to investigate the 3,500 complaints about worms in food, being served raw meat, refusal to give medication, and much more.

There’s no shortcut. Only doing the work. And that’s what these Tech Bros and AI slop fanboys will never understand.

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

The theory is that the Virginia Supreme Court is wrong on two issues of federal law: the first being the federal legal definition of "election", and that the court violated the state legislature's power to regulate federal elections.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

We need to squash this attempt to reify "Conservative" as a legitimate identity category. There is nothing intrinsic to a person about believing lies, hating your neighbors, and alternately perpetrating and falling for a neverending series of scams. They are merely idiots and assholes.
