Albanians are fighting harder against their land being stolen to build Epstein Island 2 than Americans ever fought against our CEOs, politicians, and presidents being in the Epstein files and raping children.
What Albanians are doing is extraordinary. Time for us to do the same!

Thank you @RoKhanna for defending our country against this madness and corruption:
"Last I checked, Netanyahu doesn't have a seat on this committee.”
It is treasonous that the House Armed Services committee just voted to merge our military with Israel’s.
Rise up America!
People power works. ✊
The House just passed a War Powers Resolution opposing Trump’s unauthorized war with Iran. A major rebuke to another endless war fought without congressional approval.
This victory didn’t happen by accident. It happened because people across the country called, organized, met with lawmakers, and demanded accountability.
Now it’s time for the Senate to act. Let’s keep the pressure on and send this resolution to Trump’s desk.
No more illegal wars. No more blank checks for militarism.
Antarctica’s Collapse May Have Already Begun
Antarctica is melting and one of its largest glaciers is collapsing from underneath. Thwaites could trigger a wider collapse of the full West Antarctic ice sheet, raising sea levels by 5 meters.

California is a neoliberal capitalist dystopia where the rich get richer and everyone else struggles to survive under the insane cost of living. Anyone who thinks the state is socialist knows nothing about socialism. The Democrats who rule the state are capitalist to their bones.
Child care workers are paid poverty wages. CEOs of child care chains are paid millions.
Parents are paying unaffordable rates. Corporations are posting record profits.
We built a system that fails everyone except the people at the top. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
I will continue fighting to make sure big corporations and billionaires pay their fair share. That’s why I’m the lead House sponsor of the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act, which implements an annual wealth tax to help fund our communities and public investments.
Together, we can hold the ultra-rich accountable. 💜

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman met Wednesday evening, at Altman’s request, to discuss the senator’s proposal to transfer a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America to the public. This meeting comes as the AI lobby has been pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into primary elections across the country.
As both men left the meeting, Drop Site’s @JulianAndreone asked Altman whether it is ethical to pay legalized bribes to politicians whose intended purpose is to represent working-class constituents.
Andreone then asked Sanders how it is possible to discuss in good faith with a person who is bribing lawmakers on their side of each relevant issue.
@MatthewShawJ@2gtherAgainstAI@DavidSKrueger@MorePerfectUS@KairosFellows@GoodJobsFirst We don’t need/want more fake videos. It is getting harder and harder to know what is real/true. This very, very dangerous. There is increasing use this sucked up data (true AND false) sold to govmt for surveillance. Next up is digital currency -when our govmt controls your money.
@TheTNHoller Data center construction must be halted. Not only b/c of harms to our communities, like siphoning our water, creating noise & light pollution & hiking electric bills, but the worst is AI-fueled disinformation, making it hard to know what’s true/real. This very dangerous.
MCMINNVILLE, TN: “We’re not asking. We’re not begging. We’re saying, outright, NO.”
Locals demand a stop to DATA CENTERS, which will pollute air/water, hike prices, make noise, etc.. (Owner email 👇🏽, feel free to cc us: [email protected])

An Ohio fire department is warning that AI data centers are quickly becoming a full-time job for first responders.
In Jerome Township, northwest of Columbus, emergency crews have been called to two Amazon data centers a staggering 84 times in just four years. Since the first facility opened in 2021, firefighters have responded to dozens of incidents, averaging about two calls per month.
Then came the major fire.
In April, a two-alarm blaze at one of the sites caused more than $50 million in damage and tied up emergency crews for over 24 hours.
Local officials aren’t just worried about the fires themselves. They’re concerned that precious emergency resources are being repeatedly diverted to these massive industrial complexes, all at taxpayer expense.
Data centers are sprouting up across America as tech companies scramble to build the massive infrastructure needed to power artificial intelligence. These facilities house thousands of servers that run nonstop, consuming vast amounts of electricity and generating intense heat that requires constant cooling.
While data center fires remain relatively rare, they can be exceptionally challenging to fight. The buildings are packed with electrical systems, battery backups, complex cooling infrastructure, and high-security zones that often hinder emergency access.
Ohio has emerged as one of the nation’s fastest-growing data center hubs, with more than 170 facilities already operating and many more under construction or in planning.
This growth mirrors a global explosion in hyperscale data centers, driven by the skyrocketing demand for AI computing power. Every response, AI image, or large language model ultimately relies on physical servers somewhere in the world.
While these facilities bring jobs and economic investment, many communities are feeling the strain, on power grids, water supplies, roads, and now, local emergency services.
