A toy gun has to meet federal safety standards, but a real one doesn’t 🤔🤔

We put together an educational resource on 250 years of guns in America, from the revolution to the present day. It's history, laid out so you can see the throughline. 250.marchforourlives.org

The thing to remember is that everything dangerous and miserable that happens in this story was predictable.

Trump continues to use his pardon power as a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card for his political allies.   From Jan. 6 rioters who attacked police to financial fraudsters to polluters — it seems there’s no crime he won't pardon.   He's making a complete mockery of our justice system.

Tesla Cybercab: mass-producing a car it can’t sell or drive itself

Kia’s EV push is paying off with a full lineup from entry-level electric SUVs to vans

Trump’s DOJ intervenes to keep Musk’s xAI gas turbines polluting Memphis

"PJM also issued a warning to prepare some transmission owners and utilities for the possibility of curtailing data centers and other large loads in their regions and moving them to backup generation." They didn't shead datacenters to theirown backup power. They load shead consumer air-conditioning

Instead of asking for people to not use their AC in the heatwave, how about turning off the data centers instead?

The entire history of FSD has been the next rewrite with a major version number change will solve Full Self Driving. Now v15 is the claim. Then there is the hardware side. Hardware 1,2 and 3 failed. Hardware 4 has sofar failed. They will move to hardware 5. Hardware 6 is being designed.

Tesla ‘Robotaxis’ are not crashing because they are not running

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious. Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.

Of course not. That's why Trump started the war in the first place. Now Trump walks away having spent everything we have and gained nothing at all.

omg this is insane

You may remember Republicans absolutely losing their mind when Obama released $1.7 billion in frozen Iranian assets.

So I created an alternate ending version. Enjoy ;) #DonaldTrump

Trump & Hegseth = war criminals. "The president may also hope that he can change the subject by launching another military operation, this time against the government in Cuba. And the news media have indeed begun writing more about Cuba than about the unfolding disaster in Iran." 🎁 t2m.co/SRrgzMJC

Abrego García should apply for the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.” How many other people have a district court ruling actually *finding* vindictive prosecution?

Interior Dept. decided on its $1B oil bribe to stop wind power before it had a reason

Today, the American people won. After we exposed Trump's $1.8 BILLION taxpayer funded slush fund & threatened to make Republicans vote on every part of it, they're running scared. They've pulled down votes & are going home. We know they'll be back at it, but so will we.

Solid-state EV batteries hit another major milestone in China

To inflate the value of the IPO Elon has been speaking about things as if they are facts and are happening doing visible things that are meaningless because the S-1 shows they are only concepts. There are no deals. A framework at best. They probably will never exist.

Nice way of saying we failed in saving money, but we did fuck up your government

Mean while Tesla and other US manufacturers aren't doing anything but eat China's dust.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our town hall in Butte and showed the rest of the country what it takes to make progress on an issue this important.

Today, I asked acting-AG Blanche if a convicted pedophile & Jan 6 rioter would be eligible for his & Trump's $1.8 BILLION taxpayer funded slush fund. The fact that he can't rule it out is obscene.

The costs, chaos and corruption continues, therefore the list continues. Today, @wyden.senate.gov and I released the latest update on RFK Jr.'s harmful actions.

Today, Blanche got very offended when I called him out for continuing to act like Trump's personal attorney. Now, we learn he quietly signed a deal to bar the IRS from EVER reexamining Trump's, his family's, or his companies' prior taxes. How does this serve the American people?

Yup: "But at this point, if you are taking Elon Musk at his word on virtually anything, and especially on something as ridiculous as this, you probably deserve a night in jail and whatever fine that comes with it."

Yesterday, Trump announced a $1.8 BILLION taxpayer funded slush fund for his allies & friends. Today, I asked acting AG Blanche if Jan 6 rioters who assaulted police & committed violent crimes, would be eligible for payouts. He couldn't say no.

PFAS has been linked to cancer & developmental delays in children. We should be doing everything we can to get it OUT of our drinking water. But instead, the Trump Admin wants to do the opposite — putting our communities at risk. This isn't just wrong — it's dangerous.

So much depends on whether our system, and our leaders, speak to what is best in us - or what is worst in us.

Trump's DOJ is funneling your tax dollars to a slush fund to pay off Trump's buddies & allies, like rioters who stormed the Capitol & assaulted police on Jan 6th.

An outrageous abuse of power.

US bill would overcharge EVs to pay for road damage they aren’t doing

Musk says Tesla unsupervised FSD will be ‘widespread’ in the US by year-end — again

Americans agree that corporate money in politics has gone way too far. This year, Montanans have a chance to do something about that.

This article is the earth is flat false and stupid. Distributed datacenter does nothing to help the grid. It is an additional load on it. It increases electricity consumption and cost. Under peak load this adds to the load which makes new powerplants necessary with all cost transferred to the public

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @dennisgoris.bsky.social )

Using the presidential power of inside information to enrich himself because as president he can do no wrong and he can't be prosecuted for anything he does while in office.

The guy is 94. The country has its new leadership in place for many years. Iran proves bombing won't overthrow a government. (It never has) War monger Trump would need to fight a ground war and the countrys defense is designed for one. How does Trump win? He got nothing from Iran. We spent billions

ProPublica obtained 3,000 pages of emails sent last year by executives asking that their facilities be exempted from Clean Air Act requirements. The White House approved more than 180 requests and is considering more.

The Louisiana Senate voted to eliminate one of the state’s two majority-Black congressional districts. Sen. Katrina Jackson-Andrews (D) said it best: While Republicans “make up 35.6% of the state registered voters, they will have 83% of the congressional representation of this state.”

Trump himself said we didn't need any help. Now that Trump says the war is over, do you see any evidence that we did? Nope. This was entirely a war started by Trump because HE failed to make a deal better than the JCPOA agreement HE chose to exit because Obama signed it. No deal from the war either.

AI PISS is the reason for the layoffs.
