It sounds insane to say, but President Trump inflicted more economic damage on a leading US company than on Iran.

[TNW @thenextweb]

Britain begged Washington for AI access. Trump said zero chance.
The UK has no frontier model of its own, so when the US cut off Anthropic, British hospitals and banks lost their tools overnight. https://t.co/lO2JNjABhX

@petestweets141 @aaronsmith The PM got hounded for weeks by every “journo” because his son had been given a QANTAS lounge pass.
Hanson’s daughter lands a tax payer funded $150,000 work from home job and one journo has the guts to question her.
The hypocrisy is next level.

US-Iran war: Deal includes $US300 billion fund, immediate end to oil sanctions https://t.co/xVqq2f94g9

@Peter_Fitz It’s not a ceasefire, it’s a U.S. surrender.

Not only does Iran receive reparations, it gets to control the Hormuz Strait with the ability to deny passage at any time.

The world is worse off than before hostilities commenced on 28/2.

2024 vs 2026 - Same leader, same old LNP, one big lie.

David Crisafulli has proven himself to be the same man that sat in Campbell Newman’s Cabinet.

At the first chance they’ve gotten, the LNP have cut, sacked and sold out Queenslanders.

[Eddy Jokovich @EddyJokovich]

The worst part of Hanson’s address at the #NPC?
1. Hanson.
2. The journalists in the room who failed to interrogate her.
3. Same journalists who thanked her and applauded.
4. People actually believe her lies.
5. And finally, the NPC itself. Once again, it’s failed to do its job.

Here’s WA people power push back against Porleen for PM. Thanks to all Australians who can see the danger ahead for our country if PHON, bankrolled by vested Gina, Murdochs, IPA, Advance, gets anywhere near legislative power. (Uncontrol guns; destroy Family Court; frack, drill..)

[MFWitches @MFWitches]

How the fuck do we live in a country where Pauline Hanson can bleat on and on today about Australia’s level of debt while she’s a fully-owned subsidiary of Gina Rinehart, a woman who’s campaigned viciously against billionaires paying fair taxes for decades?

Dear Treasurer @JEChalmers here’s hoping you can get those neg-gear/CGT changes through the Senate quick smart. The vested forces against you are formidable: Murdochs’ https://t.co/z7oq5Aa6Yp; Nine Entertainment; Domain; Gina; IPA; Advance; Pauline for PM; Abbott-Taylor-Canavan.

How come Gina Rinehart was personally able to make a US$1 billion investment in SpaceX at the same time as Australian investors had their stake slashed by 60%?

[Ben Davison @Ben_Davison1]

Yesterday while Hanson was calling 13,000,000 workers in Australia lazy & impossible to sack at the national press club her sponsor, the worlds richest woman Gina, was sacking hundreds of workers from her profitable Roy Hill mining corporation

Just awful

@strangerous10 She’s a disgrace, the enemy of our sovereignty.

[Stephen Mayne @MayneReport]

Rinehart is up $700m on her SpaceX play. Were Australian investors snubbed to wave through her $1.4bn allocation? via @crikey_news https://t.co/KIuKMvV38g

The 100% reliance on AI is getting out of hand and making us complacent. The irony is that AI is nothing without human data. It didn't invent anything; it just took what we created.

These AI founders think they run the world just because they built a fast response generator off our free data.

The delusion is wild. They’re actively harming the planet, draining water and resources for data centers, all while claiming humans are inferior.

AI is just a mirror of human brains and human data. These new-age billionaires just love the sound of their own BS.

It's "artificial" for a reason.

Erin Brockovich has launched a new interactive website and map tracking data centers across America — and the response has been overwhelming.

In just the first week, the site logged 1,690 resident complaints, with over 1,800 submissions coming in from 47 states shortly after launch.

Residents are reporting serious issues including:
• Massive water usage draining local supplies
• Sharply rising utility bills for nearby homes
• Constant 24/7 noise from fans and generators disrupting sleep and daily life
• Concerns over e-waste and potential PFAS contamination

This comes from the same Erin Brockovich who famously won a $333 million settlement against PG&E in the 1990s for contaminating drinking water in Hinckley, California.

The map shows operational, under-construction, and proposed AI data centers, allowing people to submit reports with photos and locations.

What the map shows~

• Major AI data centers (operational, under construction, or proposed) across the U.S.

• Overlaid with community-reported concerns (pins from residents emailing in issues).

• You can click markers for details, sources, and reports. It uses a leaflet/OpenStreetMap-based interactive map.

Stats from the site (as of ~May 24, 2026)
• 33 Operational (built & running)

• 44 Under Construction (announced or building)

• 27 Proposed (in pipeline/pending approval)

• Hundreds/thousands of community reports nationwide (earlier reports mentioned 2,700+ submissions from 49 states, with Texas leading heavily).

Many Americans are now asking whether the rapid expansion of data centers is coming at too high a cost to local communities and the environment.

Some of Australia's largest mining companies receive hundreds of millions in diesel fuel tax credits - BHP alone received $622 million last financial year.

At a time when the budget is under pressure and Australians are feeling huge cost of living pressures, these subsidies need to end.

We should be capping fuel tax credits to look after farmers and small miners but make the biggest miners pay the full price for diesel like everyone else.
