This rightward lurch ain't it. More left please.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

Someone has to say it.

The amount of racism directed at World Cup players - including in the England squad - on this platform is out of control.

We cannot allow a vile vocal minority to divide our nation. A lot of this content is illegal and Ofcom should be investigating.

Solidarity with every player targeted. We are united.

@EmmaVigeland Democracy Now had some good coverage on this to anyone who hasnt heard the details. Musk is a damn parasite on society. https://t.co/rymzyQCFjl

One of the most horrifying scenes in human history has been revealed.

When Israel forced thousands in Gaza to collect flour mixed with sand due to severe famine.

A moment the world must never forget.

Ro Khanna has accomplished more than any other Democrat under the second Trump term.

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

Drop Site is honored to be doing a public event at Ibraaz on Thursday in London where we will be discussing the Israeli-US wars of aggression in the region and the attempts to crush dissent by the US and UK governments.

I’ve been banned from the UK. I tried to get on a flight to London to attend SXSW London and give a speech at Oxford. I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

MAGA: Obama giving Iran $1.7 billion unfrozen assets is TREASON.

NYT: Trump’s Iran Deal to include $300 BILLION reconstruction fund for Iran.

We are in capitalism’s final stage, where global capital can’t expand or sustain past profits. It now consumes public institutions and key systems, sacrificing democracy, welfare, infrastructure, education, healthcare, and ecosystems for short-term gain.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

NEW: Elon Musk wants a SpaceX IPO valuing the company at upwards of $1.75 trillion.

To get there he got the rules changed so that index funds, with millions of Americans' retirement savings, are forced to buy in.

Retirees could take huge losses, while insiders cash out.

[Alex Veremeyenko @alex_verem]

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

[Anonymous @YourAnonNews]

There's a group of people in the USA who make less than $40,000 a year, and they consistently rally against raising the minimum wage because they think it would destroy the economy. They also rally against universal health care too.
That's Stockholm Syndrome in a nutshell.

[kaceytron @kaceytron]

I will never be guilt tripped by Blue MAGA to vote for a centrist liberal Democrat again. I regret voting for Kamala so much. Not only was she a horrible candidate, the “Vote Blue No Matter Who” freaks still blame voters WHO VOTED FOR HER… for her running a horrible campaign.

[George Black @gblizzzle]

@VillainBaller You're missing the word 'arguably' from the front of your tweet. Otherwise I co-sign this wholeheartedly.

[daz @MetamateDaz]

Jeff Bezos capped his salary at $82,000. Not because he's modest or because he wanted what's best for society and his company but because salaries are taxed.

Instead, he borrows against his $230 BILLION stock to fund his lifestyle UNTAXED No paycheck = no income tax.

The he jumps on TV and said he pays his fair share of taxes. They think we're stupid.

[Mandy Arthur @mandyarthur]

Hey @Grok, purely hypothetical, what is the *statistical probability* that 52,000 NEW voters suddenly appear in a primary and vote OVER 90% AGAINST the incumbent? One sentence max.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

Democrats must take on the modern day Dred Scott Court.

South Carolina is eliminating the only Black majority seat.

Term limits on Justices now.

Expand the Court from 9 to 13 Justices.

@RepThomasMassie @MassieforKY

[DannyKPolitics @DannyKPolitics]

Massie can still request a recount. He has until May 29 to file.

Under KRS 120.095, any candidate voted for in a Kentucky primary may petition the circuit court for a recount within ten days of the election. There is no vote-percentage threshold and no closeness requirement. The candidate posts bond, the State Board of Elections is named defendant, and the ballots and voting equipment are transferred into court custody for retabulation. The 50% threshold some are citing applies to election contests under KRS 120.055, a separate proceeding. A recount is not a contest.

I have filed supplemental Open Records Act requests targeting the absentee ballot universe in the May 19 contest between Ed Gallrein and Thomas Massie. The most expensive House primary in U.S. history, funded by Paul Singer, Miriam Adelson, and John Paulson through MAGA Kentucky (FEC C00908723), deserves a tabulation the public can verify. Especially amidst ballot discrepancies. Massie has the standing. The window closes May 29.

Keep posting this so people don’t forget how truly bad this event was.

Don’t let people gaslight you into thinking it was peaceful and worthy of 1500+ pardons and slush fund payoffs.
