Just in: A video from inside a court in occupied Jerusalem shows Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya appearing via video link and attempting to speak with his attorney before Israeli court security blocked the screen and terminated the call, preventing journalists from filming the exchange or the video appearance.

I listened carefully to what the attorney was saying to Dr. Abu Safiya. It appeared that Dr. Abu Safiya could not hear him. The attorney repeatedly stated that he could neither see nor hear Dr. Abu Safiya after his “captors turned off the camera.” He also informed him that some people were present in the courtroom to show their support and that they were waiting for the judge to arrive so that he could be brought back on screen before the court addressed the appeal.

This is Israel’s democracy. Dr. Abu Safiya has been subjected to starvation, abuse, and cruel torture, and this latest development only adds to concerns about the conditions he has endured and the lack of public scrutiny surrounding his case.

Knicks coach Mike Brown on the referees in Game 3: “I never thought I’d be in the NBA Finals and see a team get 24 free throw attempts in the second half to another team’s eight. I don’t think I complain much about officials or the fairness when it comes to the free throw attempts. San Antonio is a great team. It’s going to lower our odds big time if we play Game 4 and in the second half they get 24 free throw attempts to our eight. Maybe we were fouling, but they fouled too.”

Erin Brockovich's latest project is a website to report and track data center construction across the country:

"The race to build AI infrastructures is unfolding town by town across America... This map captures the real-world footprint of that race — revealing patterns of growth, conflict and uncertainty."

I appreciate the continuing coverage of women/miscarriage/abortion from ProPublica … long after the political headlines may have died down.

1/ At 17 weeks pregnant, Emily Waldorf was suddenly faced with a life-threatening situation: Her baby’s foot was dipping out of her cervix.

Doctors told her the longer her cervix stayed open, the higher her risk of infection.

They knew how to treat her. There was one issue…🧵

absolutely losing my mind that you have hundreds of international citizens who were been abducted, abused, some raped and tortured by Israel and… crickets in our news media. We are beyond “complicity” and ‘giving Israel impunity’ - its complete acquiescence and surrender.

A US city has effectively banned data centers for the first time.

St. Charles, Missouri has changed their land use rules so that data centers cannot be built.

The change is indefinite, and to build data centers in St. Charles the land uses rules would need to change again.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

Data centers are the leading cause of a 76% increase in the cost of electricity for America's largest power grid over just the first 3 months of this year, according to Bloomberg.

The 13-state grid managed by PJM serves 67 million people, and costs have spiked this year.

This time last year the cost of electricity on this grid was $77.78 per megawatt-hour. Now that cost has almost doubled to $136.53 per megawatt-hour.

Bloomberg attributes that skyrocketing cost to the "booming demand from artificial intelligence data centers, which require vast amounts of energy and are putting a significant burden on America’s aging power grids."
