Pregnant girls as young as 13 are being held in a remote Texas immigration facility while a member of Congress (Rep. Maxine Dexter) says she was blocked from speaking to them. Some of these pregnancies are the result of rape.
This is one of the most horrifying immigration stories right now in the USA.
How many pregnant children are there? Where are these girls coming from? Where are they being sent? Are they getting real prenatal care? Do they have access to proper legal representation? Are newborn babies being ripped out of their mother's arms? Why are members of Congress being blocked from speaking with them?
No agency should be able to hide where vulnerable kids are being sent. We need to free these children and give them healthcare, lawyers, family reunification, and safety.
The Nashville Zoo has launched a public campaign to block construction of a proposed 69,000-square-foot AI data center that would sit directly adjacent to habitats for endangered animals, including vulnerable clouded leopards.
Zoo officials warn that the facility’s constant noise, bright artificial lighting, and electrical hum could seriously disrupt animal behavior, stress levels, and long-established breeding programs. The zoo is home to more than 3,700 animals representing over 350 species and maintains one of the most important collections of rare and endangered wildlife in the United States.
This conflict highlights a growing backlash against the rapid expansion of data centers driven by the AI boom. These facilities require massive amounts of electricity and operate 24 hours a day, prompting communities nationwide to raise concerns about energy consumption, water use, noise pollution, and environmental impacts. Wildlife conservation groups are now joining the resistance.
More than 180,000 people have already signed a petition opposing the project.
The developer behind the data center states that it will use waterless cooling systems, meet all local noise regulations, and comply with environmental standards. However, zoo leaders argue that the location itself, immediately next to sensitive animal habitats, makes the project unacceptable regardless of technical mitigations.
The dispute underscores a broader challenge of the AI era: how to build the vast digital infrastructure needed for artificial intelligence without placing undue pressure on local communities, ecosystems, and wildlife.
This is exactly what she gets for kissing his ass for years.
He was the one called Hillary Clinton crooked and they went right along with it especially Chuck Todd her master.
By the way, he talks like this isn’t his country and that he isn’t American and a president.
“Your elections in this country are crooked’
The guy hates America!!
🚨BREAKING: TRUMP JUST HAD HIS WORST MELTDOWN EVER.
Trump completely unravels when Kristen Welker challenged him on his California election claims.
Instead of providing evidence, he called her "crooked" and "stupid," attacked the press, and abruptly WALKS OUT in the middle of the interview.
She did what every journalist should do every time Trump spews his unfounded bullsh*t.
Thank you, Kristen.
🚨 Trump's new Medicaid rules just made it official: having cancer is not enough to be exempt from work requirements. You have to PROVE cancer is stopping you from working. While you're in chemo.
This week, the Trump administration released its final 400-page rule on how states must enforce the Medicaid work requirements that were buried inside last year's "One Big Beautiful Bill." Starting January 1, 2027, most low-income adults on Medicaid must prove every single month they are working, volunteering, or attending school for at least 80 hours — or lose their coverage.
For months, advocates for cancer patients and people living with HIV had been pushing for a blanket medical exemption. What they got instead was a trap. The new rule ties the definition of "medically frail" — the exemption category — directly to a person's ability to work. That means cancer patients who are still capable of working, even in between chemo rounds, do not automatically qualify. A woman with early-stage breast cancer receiving radiation treatment? May not qualify. A man living with HIV who takes medication and still reports to work? No exemption.
And here's the part that should stop you cold: Harvard health policy professor Adrianna McIntyre told reporters that even cancer patients who ARE technically exempt could still lose coverage — because the paperwork process is so complex that "a recently diagnosed cancer patient who is employed might lose Medicaid coverage due to errors in completing the necessary paperwork." Cancer will not wait while a Medicaid office sifts through forms.
The American Cancer Society ran the numbers. Researchers at the University of Chicago published a study in JAMA Oncology projecting that over 1 million mammograms and colorectal and lung cancer screenings will be missed within the first two years of these rules. That translates to more than 2,300 undetected cancer cases — hundreds at advanced stages — and an estimated 155 avoidable deaths from just three types of cancer alone.
A coalition of 48 patient advocacy groups signed a joint statement calling the rule "life-threatening." The American Academy of Pediatrics said it will "harm those whom Medicaid is intended to support." The HIV+Hepatitis Policy Institute's director said bluntly: "We will lose individuals from Medicaid, and many will become ill and die as a result."
68 million Americans depend on Medicaid. The CBO says at least 5 million will lose coverage. And Dr. Oz went on TV to defend it by saying Medicaid recipients watch too much television.
Sooooo....The Pentagon just declared Israel an enemy to the US the same week Congress voted to merge our military with theirs.
Am I getting that right?
🚨🚨Just in case you missed it. Here is Benjamin Netanyahu in his own words, thanking Congress for implementing “his plan” to take over the US military and intelligence services..🚨🚨
