@ridpath_linda@RpsAgainstTrump The Kennedy Center and the White House don’t need to be “shinier”, “fancier”, or “grander”! They are historic monuments which should be maintained, safe, respected! Our history and culture is not the same as France, Russia, England, Saudi Arabia… So, we should not copy those!
So if I purchase a DVD and digitize it, that’s copyright infringement. But if an AI company buys my book and scans it to train their system, that’s perfectly fine? Once again, corporations are allowed to play by their own rules. I’m so sick of the hypocrisy.
I compiled all the NDAs signed by Louisiana officials with private companies. You can search through them here.
The state conducted secret negotiations with Anthropic, Google, Amazon, Meta and a host of others: https://t.co/hVvDRnpFH6
🚨 BREAKING:
The United Nations has officially declared Gaza a genocide zone, noting that Israel is deliberately targeting children and infants.
It took a full three years to reach this conclusion.
Un-fucking-believable.
Just moments after voting to cut $2 TRILLION of services including from Medicare and Medicaid - and coverage for Alzheimer’s medication - House Republicans closed by praying in a moment of silence. Never forget.

The State Department said it takes "full responsibility" for "hastily" altering and then presenting a map of Africa at a global AIDS conference that mislabeled every single country it highlighted.
An analysis by Reuters found a watermark in the map image that suggests it was made with OpenAI.
DON’T FORGET: During the Biden-Harris administration — Congress had a BIPARTISAN bill that would’ve made the biggest increase in border security in decades — but, at the last minute, every Republican decided to vote no because a private citizen told them to.
His name was Donald J. Trump.
The 2024 bipartisan border bill — backed by Biden & Harris — was a $118 billion emergency package aimed at strengthening border security, reducing asylum backlogs, and capping daily migrant crossings.
It allowed — or, rather, mandated — DHS to close the border to most migrants if daily encounters averaged more than 4,000–5,000 per week.
It also significantly tightened asylum eligibility standards and expedited processing times — aiming to decide cases in months rather than years.
The package would’ve provided $20 billion for border initiatives — including new asylum officers, 100+ immigration judges, and increased detention capacity.
It had UNANIMOUS support and was about to be passed… until Trump threw a fit, didn’t want to give Biden a “win,” and threatened Republicans into voting “no.”
MAGA would rather run on a problem than fix it.
Rep. Max Miller has been accused by his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, of domestic abuse against her and their 2-year-old daughter. So, when does he resign? Swalwell had to resign and Platner dropped out over abuse charges.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' proposal to end Donald Trump's IRS sweetheart deal.
This deal gives him FULL IMMUNITY from audits on tax returns he's filed.
It's corruption on steroids.
Maybe we should make a bigger deal that an employee of the Heritage Foundation tried to walk into congress with a loaded gun magazine while also carrying pills that tested positive for cocaine and fentanyl
Elon is back to rig the midterms. He just revived his PAC to pour in hundreds of millions to elect republicans. If democrats win, he’ll end up in jail. So yes, just like he did on July of 2024, he’s doing it again. Watch him bring all his tools, money, starlink, voter lists, AI.
BREAKING: Senator John Cornyn admits that he is no longer obeying Trump’s every word because he lost his primary. He just admitted the quiet part out loud. Holding onto power is more important to them than acting in the best interest of our country.
Trump and his Republican enablers in Congress just announced massive Medicare cuts. They rammed it through with no Democratic votes and buried the details until after the election. Seniors' prescriptions hang in the balance. Vote them all out this November. #RepublicansCutHealthcare
BREAKING: GOP Sen. @berniemoreno's own daughter just slapped a restraining order on Republican Congressman Max Miller after accusing him of years of domestic abuse, including throwing scalding water on her, holding a gun to her head, and injuring their 2-year-old daughter.
And of course, total silence from the entire Republican Party, including her own father.
Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime.
This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.
Eduardo Aguirre was working in West Seattle when masked ICE agents arrested him and brought him to Texas, without any hearing or notification to his wife or attorney.
He is married to a US citizen, owns a small business, has no criminal record, and has lived in the US for over 20 years. This is who ICE is targeting – not the so-called, "worst of the worst."
DHS must immediately return Eduardo home to Washington state. These cruel tactics to speed up deportations and remove due process must stop. Disband ICE.
