The Declaration is America's great moral power. It animates her and it directs her. A country that stops believing its own founding principles has nothing left to steer by.
ExxonMobil and Chevron on Friday both reported windfall profits for the second quarter of the year. Chevron said its earnings soared nearly 400% to $12 billion, while Exxon’s profits more than doubled to $14.5 billion. https://t.co/WZCKAoLaZs
The cost of this war is astonishing and we know very little about it. Munitions spent. Damage to bases. Cost of deployments. Injuries to service-members. Taxpayer price tag will easily reach into hundreds of billions. All to accomplish...what?
Healthcare worker here. I worked the COVID pandemic front lines. I can testify with 100% proven reliability that the only patients who died were primarily the UNVACCINATED.
Dr. Fauci is a deadly pathogen professional whose efforts and efficacy saved countless lives. The man’s a hero.
The Bureau of Land Management just approved an AI data center on public land.
Never been done before.
Not through a real environmental review either. They dug up an old solar farm's approval from 2023 and decided it counted for a completely different project. No new review. No public comment period. No public say at all.
The site sits on desert tortoise habitat outside Boulder City, Nevada, three miles from residents' homes.
The company behind it is Skylar Capital Management, a Texas hedge fund.
Its water will come from the Colorado River Basin.
The same river that gives nearly 40 million people across seven states their drinking water.
The same river where farmers and ranchers use almost 80 percent of the supply, and it's already so short that farmers this year left fields unplanted and ranchers are shrinking their cattle herds just to survive the season.
The same river so overdrawn that seven states have spent months failing to agree on how to split what's left, and this week, the federal government takes that decision out of their hands entirely.
The same river where Navajo, Hopi, and Paiute nations have waited 118 years for water they were legally promised back in 1908, while states actively fight to block them from getting it.
Now a hedge fund wants a straw in that river too, for a server farm.
Who decided an AI data farm needs water more than the 40 million people who depend on the Colorado River? 💧

Trump has been having a hypomanic episode the past 2 hours. Post after post after post. I count about 60 of them - mostly images, many of them AI. All his trademark pathologies; all his underlying themes: Malice. Grievance. Division. Entitlement.
His gut is a simmering stew of agitation, rage, and desperation. His disordered brain is filled with paranoid fantasies of revenge alongside fantastical visions of regaining his grandiosity.
He hates being trapped and stuck in Iran. He hates that Epstein won't go away. He hates being told his speech at the dinner was inappropriate. He hates that his name needed to come off a building. He hates that musical artists canceled from his show. He hates losing in court. And he especially hates his own mortality.
Neither you nor I can EVER feel the kind of frenzied fear and fanaticism that Trump feels now. This is a man, who knows he's in his final chapter, who is confounded that he, all that he is, all that he ever said he was, his lifetime of secrets and lies and false constructs - is vulnerable to exposure.
How can he possibly sit still? How can he sleep? Who can he trust?
Malignant narcissists in decline always get worse, it's always messy, and they never want to go down alone.
Trump gave a 26-minute speech about election integrity and accidentally declassified a document proving Russia helped him. The call is coming from inside the house.
Ronald Reagan: “You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman…But Anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American…This, I believe, is one of the most important sources of America's greatness.”🇺🇸
Everyone needs to see this!
Bill Maher to JD Vance: "Here's my deal breaker for your side. Okay. Under Trump, you guys have two outcomes in an election can be. Either we win, or they cheat it. That shit has to stop. "
Wow. Donald Trump is holding affordable housing hostage until Congress passes his voter suppression bill.
He is literally delaying help for families struggling to afford a home in order to make it harder for married women and Black Americans to vote.
He is a sick man!
It took about 140 years to finish the Duomo in Florence.
The original architects knew they wouldn’t live to see the dome rise, yet they laid the stone anyway.
When you believe in eternity, you build things differently.
“Dear migrants, before I say any other word to you, I want to bow before your dignity.
“You are not numbers or case files.
“You are people — with a family and a home left behind, with dreams that no one has the right to scorn.” — Pope Leo XIV
🚨 WOW! MS NOW host Mika Brzezinski delivers a brutal reality check. She demands the media completely run over Donald Trump's lies and fight back with facts.
She warns that failing to do so turns networks into nothing more than state-run mouthpieces for the administration!
