1,500 AND COUNTING.
Angel Reese has officially reached 1,500 career points, adding another milestone to a résumé that keeps growing.
Buckets. Boards. History.
US corporate profits have hit a record high of over $9 trillion the first half of this year, while workers’ slice of the pie has recently sunk to historic lows.
Walmart spent $8.1 billion on stock buybacks last year.
Over 156,000 Walmart workers are on Medicaid because they don't get healthcare from the company.
Trump's FTC just admitted it won't go after companies who voluntarily disclose the use of personal data in pricing.
This would effectively allow big corporations to keep engaging in "surveillance pricing" — weaponizing your personal data to rip you off.
The water that data centers use for electricity generation in just the top 7 states with the most data centers is the equivalent of 12-times the annual water use of Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Washington, DC, combined.
The think tank Ceres has a new report detailing how data centers use much more water for electricity generation than they do in the facilities themselves.
Bloomberg just reported on the study, saying that data centers in the seven states with the highest concentrations of them use about 3.4 trillion gallons of freshwater for electric power generation every year, but few electric power producers have connected this increasing power demand to water supply risks.

"I paid $2500 for power — two weeks later I'm still out of power."
We went to Indiana, where thousands of people still haven't had the power switched back on.
In Gary, Maryville, and Hammond schools are closed, families are throwing away spoiled food, people are driving to Illinois to get ice for insulin.
Power rates are higher than ever, but people in the region are being put through hell just two years after Blackstone bought into their power company.
Now residents are fighting back against the utility company -- filing a class action lawsuit against it for negligence.
Proud to announce that New York City has registered a record 4,200 New Yorkers in our doula care program.
Pregnancy and childbirth are life-changing moments. No one should be forced to navigate them alone.
The Citywide Doula Initiative has connected thousands of New Yorkers with free doula support, addressing longstanding inequities in maternal care for Black and Latino families.
We’re going a step further by adding doula coverage to eligible health plans so that more New Yorkers have the care they need before, during, and after childbirth.
“Israel says…” is not journalism. When we were filming in Hebron, the IDF killed seven-month-old Sam Abu Haikal. Israel claimed his family’s car accelerated toward its soldiers. Then video emerged. Israel lied.
Journalists need to do better than "Israel says."

Attorney General Todd Blanche says the federal government should play a role in elections.
That’s not what the U.S. Constitution says.

NEW: North Carolina’s GOP-controlled election board has again denied an on-campus early voting site at the nation’s largest HBCU.

NEW: Chick-fil-A isn't open on Sundays. Therefore, polls shouldn't be either, one GOP North Carolina county board member argued to restrict weekend voting — a critical window for many Black voters.

Walmart just received a $2.9 billion tariff refund, massively boosting the company's profits.
Regular people paid the costs of tariffs by and large across America.
But now corporations are getting huge checks from the government, while working people get nothing.
Parents, what would you do with four hours of child-free time?
We launched a Parents’ Night Out program with @NYCparks to give NYC parents a little time back for themselves, because we’re committed to making it easier to raise a family in the greatest city in the world.
The Trump EPA has now backed off its re-assessment of cancer-causing nitrates, despite decades of research suggesting it's more harmful than previously thought, and despite nitrate pollution reaching crisis levels in U.S. drinking water.
