No es una derrota de Trump, es una catástrofe. El escrutinio continua y la diferencia en el voto popular ya es de casi de 14 puntos (16 millones de votos). Es la victoria más aplastante desde 1974. Para tener una idea, los Republicanos no llegan al 56% de los votos desde 1928.

Warren: "Democrats must deliver popular, meaningful legislation to Trump's desk, and then dare him to veto it. Dare him to veto an increase to the minimum wage for hard-working Americans. Dare him to veto a ban on price gouging. Dare him to veto a ban on AI surveillance pricing ... you can't win what you don't fight for"

Amazon is building a gas fueled data center in Texas that will pump out 33 MILLION TONS of CO₂ every year.

It would take the average American 2 MILLION YEARS to produce that much CO₂.

All so trillion-dollar tech companies can build out AI slop machines.

The vast majority of Americas unions support Medicare for All. 66% of the country supports Medicare for All. 50 healthcare billionaires do not.

Troy Jackson makes like $80k a year. Him and his wife's biggest asset is his wife's retirement account which is under $250k. He is one of us. And we need 100's more in Congress just like him.

Listen to this. And then listen again. And again. Until you get it.

Just 10 years ago the 1.5 breach was expected in 2042.
Now: It is expected in the next couple of years. Accelerated warming.
If you are not willing do the hard work, you fail.

Jon Stewart on Chuck Schumer: “Someone has to meet this moment. You have an opportunity to actually govern. One of the first things you need to do is remove that system of seniority from Democratic politics. It’s a bullshit system and it needs to go. Chuck Schumer fought tooth and nail against half of these fucking people. He does not understand the urgency of the moment and what the future demands”

i need americans who "love" their "great health insurance" to try to imagine never having to think about health insurance (or copays, or deductibles, or "choices") again and how wonderful that would feel. i deeply miss the feeling of it never entering my mind.

People looked at these kinds of maps in 2024, which showed GOP swings everywhere, and decided the country was on a new MAGA trajectory. Trump hadn’t even cracked 50% of the vote. He won by 1.5%. Democrats just won the midterms by 13%, the biggest margin in at least 40 years.

so stupid that every election is about gas prices while we have rendered cheap chinese electric cars illegal

[David Wallace-Wells @dwallacewells]

The new high water mark for Democrats in national congressional races in the modern era is now D+13. Republicans haven’t managed better than R+6.8. In presidential elections, Republicans have won more than 50% of the vote just once since 1988. This is not a red country.

Aeroponics is the process of growing plants in the air or mist environment without soil or an aggregate medium.

👀 It looks like the North Pole is nearly 30°C above the 1991-2030 average for this day. THIRTY.

[Charlie Warzel @cwarzel]

lots of real reasons for concern right now. but the despair and hopelessness described here is such a product of being online. even just yday being in nyc for the marathon and watching tens of thousands of strangers show up for people is such a balm. there are so few incentives on these platforms to be the best versions of ourselves and the aggregate effect is corrosive and not reflective of reality!

The area in red has 1,335,977 residents and 40 early voting locations

The area in blue has 1,370,416 residents and only 1 early voting location.

People need to stop looking at lines like this and thinking wow this is so awesome so many people are voting and start seeing these insanely long lines as what they are- a form of voter suppression.
