One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

holy crap youtube.com/shorts/hyqtA...

He's so utterly out of his mind. Everyone, he's tanking our economy. He's the insatiably, needy, greedy sick one who needs to be confined to a mental institution. Send him away before we lose everything to his madness.

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a sick & racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason, rape, and child abuse from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.

NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected. And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.* Tax the rich. Greg Ryan in @bloomberg.com:

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

All day, Baby.

Surprise! Elon's SpaceX which rakes in billions of the taxes you pay, doesn't pay corporate taxes. He's the biggest parasite in the world. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/15/t...

Mayor Young and xAI lied relentlessly to Memphis. Time Mag's superb report on NASA's discovery that proves hugely increased poisons in Memphis air since xAI's arrival and deployment of gas turbines: time.com/7308925/elon...

jfc, let us stop these corrupt fascists from crashing the economy! People with 401ks have some power here to stop trump. Let us do all we can to avoid this utter corruption. It's relatively easy, but we must act. @brendanballou.bsky.social tells us how. slate.com/business/202...

this warms the cockles of my heart. "These giants are standing tall against fossil fuels, rising up out of the ocean like a middle finger against CO2."

This is a huge deal and one more reason why I love California. No more masked ICE arresting w/o cause: 👇👇👇 www.latimes.com/california/s...

Sundog, a memecoin by crypto billionaire Justin Sun, just posted a meme depicting its mascot controlling the White House. Sun has spent (or will shortly spend) a total of $213 million on Trump-connected crypto projects.

Inside Elon Musk’s plan to rain SpaceX’s rocket debris over Hawaii’s pristine waters

Enviro groups including NAACP, Young, Gifted & Green filed to appeal xAI's permits in Memphis. The permits allow Elon Musk's co. to keep using gas-burning turbines to power their Colossus "supercomputer" facility, which in turn helps run the Grok chatbot. www.cnbc.com/2025/07/16/m...

1 in 12 Americans live in California. 1 in 35 Americans live in LA County. LA is America

Fed Chair Powell graduation remarks to Princeton nod toward our current predicament: "Look around you. I urge you to take none of this for granted. When you look back in 50 years, you will want to know that you have done whatever it takes to preserve and strengthen our democracy."

“DOGE has already squandered half a trillion dollars… Not billion. Half a trillion, $500 billion… In other words, in about eight weeks DOGE managed to lose the U.S. government — more or less light on fire — more than half of what goes to all non-defense discretionary spending.” @joshtpm.bsky.social

It seems that Elon's DOGE boys may be involved in at least one illegal heist of information. You have to wonder if Musk has been squirreling our data at Colossus xAI all along: www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Who wants to take bets that every American's info is being used to train Musk's xAI in Memphis? Or that Musk is holding your data on his own company servers?

COMPARE: the results of fighting back to the results of not fighting back

Musk’s Supervillain laugh…thinks stealing water is funny. Get ready, Memphis @thetnholler.bsky.social @justinpearson.bsky.social @niedermeyer.online

And they thought they would be getting away with all of it too.

I didn't have to wait long for the LTTs to find the feathers. I placed them last evening & were found at dawn. This pair have a huge task ahead of them to locate 1000+ feathers & they are very choosy about which feathers they will use for nest lining. @nicwilson.bsky.social @ianparsons.bsky.social

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

Trump has passed his "malignant narcissist" stage and gone full blown into his "I don't care who gets destroyed because they tried to destroy me" stage. And that extends to his own supporters. He's that sick.

Memphis Mayor Paul Young dodges Q’s re Musk’s xAI polluting gas turbines & and this vid got him ouchy👇

Here's a ton of good money news. We just have to go for it: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Just a reminder that Trump's government of thieves knows Greenland has enough mineral reserves to supply the Western world for decades. And that there are massive amounts of lithium that Musk badly needs for Tesla batteries. www.bbc.com/news/article...

DOGE fraud (gee, ya think?) in the firing of IRS agents for their job "performance" without any review. Great @propublica.org piece by @andykroll.bsky.social www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Memphians, get thee to tomorrow's chat with Mayor Young and make your feelings known about Musk's presence and our city's water, grid and air. Ask the Mayor why he's not protecting Memphians from Elon Musk's vandalism of the air we breathe. And Musk's plans are scaling waaaay up.

No kings.

Reminding everyone how Musk deliberately lies when he comes to build in a new community, then sucks up massive amounts of water, robbing towns of their precious resource, to make his businesses run. Memphis, beware, he'll do it to you. Via Bloomberg: www.insurancejournal.com/news/southce...

This looter is running to NSA for god knows what: www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

You all know what to do. FOIA their asses. As for what DOGE has on your personal info. Then sue if they don't answer:

This brave, decent man said it for me. 👇👇👇

Everyone, follow this vital government group who Musk fired for doing what he claims to be doing. And read their blogpost as they tell what happened: 18f.org

Elon always be frauding
