I defeated Trump and his allies more than 60 times in court when he tried to steal the 2020 election. When Trump sued me for RICO in 2022, I didn't settle. I fought and won. He and the GOP hate me because I fight. They fear me because I win.

I've been told the same. Fuck Reform, fuck anyone who stands for them or votes for them.

This is who you are, Sunderland. Congratulations.

Proud of yourself, Sunderland? First Brexit, now this.

On Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday, we look at the degraded landscape now restored which he called "a miracle". Thameside shows we can choose to bring land back to life. @eastangliabylines.co.uk @jennyrhodes42.bsky.social

I just can’t. How does anyone support this lunatic?

Gustav Klimt was 17 years old in 1879 when he drew (with charcoal and black chalk) this portrait of a young girl. His superb technical ability as a draughtsman is evident even as a teenager in the way he uses shadow to create a three-dimensional picture on paper.

Researchers in Hong Kong developed a nasal spray for rapid stroke intervention. The system uses nanotechnology to deliver neuroprotective drugs directly to the brain and reduce neuronal damage during the emergency stage.

Just so we understand.

Sonny was left behind by his old family. He waited but they never came back. He got sick but he never stopped waiting. After saving him and building him back up we found Sonny a new family. Look at what it means to him now to belong somewhere again!

U.S. Rep. Sylvia Garcia after touring the Dilley ICE jail: "There is nothing humane about Dilley. Children are being held in jail while women with no criminal history are denied basic dignity, medical care, and hygiene products. "A jail is no place for children. This baby jail must be shut down."

The only politician that every single person in Los Angeles loves, whether they're left or right, is Kenneth Mejia. He's the city controller and his only job is to audit the city budget. That's it. He's just everyone's favorite accountant. He also has a corgi and his billboards look like this:

Reality check: oil market manipulation is being done at our expense. Trump isn't for "you" he is for "him" finance.yahoo.com/markets/comm...

How humiliating. I love it.

Standing before the White House to demand we close the concentration camps where roughly 70K people are now forced to endure horrific conditions by virtue of who they are, not anything they've done. #CloseTheCamps #BringThemHome

COLBERT: How dumb do you think it is for people to say that I should run for president? OBAMA: Well, you know, the bar has changed. I think you would perform significantly better than some folks we've seen. COLBERT: Is that an endorsement? OBAMA: It was not

Anyone who votes for this party knows what they are voting for and every single one of them is deserving of our utter contempt. It should be as socially unacceptable to vote for them as it was to vote BNP 20 years ago.

Goode won.

"If you give the rich tax breaks, they'll lower prices for everyone else." No, they won't. Want proof? Every single MLB team owner is in the richest 0.1% and receives hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax breaks every year. And it now costs an average $225 to attend a game.

Oh my god

Mark Zuckerberg built a massive data center in Georgia just hundreds of yards from people’s homes. Now the water pressure is gone. Sinks don’t run. Toilets won’t refill. Homes shake nonstop. Power outages are routine.

OBAMA: A good policy that I'd like to see followed is that the president shouldn't have a bunch of side hustles that companies and foreign entities can invest in COLBERT: How much of that is just jealousy that you didn't think of selling sneakers?

Meanwhile the California grid now boasts the equivalent of 12 nuclear power plants worth of batteries -- the total cost of which was, I suspect, less than a single nuclear plant.

It’s the way to go. Invest in solar energy.
