@tedlieu Hilton being the top 2 means California Democrats get less gains in House races even if its a very good blue wave.
Becerra and Steyer would depress Republican turnout.
Once again corporate Democrats fight harder against progressives than Republicans.
Just hours ago, Trump said he was gonna call Netanyahu to tell him not to attack lran. “I call all the shots. Netanyahu doesn't,” he says.
And now, Israel just attacked Iran.
So Trump was either blatantly lying to you on behalf of Israel, or he’s letting Israel walk all over him.
Make no mistake: The US government will socialize the immense costs of subprime AI. They will force us all to eat the losses, while the perpetrators of the biggest fraud in history abscond to private islands. Be ready, because a deliberate rug-pull is the plan.
@MeghanMcCain Republicans aren't the majority in a supermajority of cities.
They mainly live in rural towns or suburban towns so of course it's extremely challenging for them to be a mayor.
Angélica Dueñas continues to close the gap in the #CA29 primary. She is now just 1,605 votes behind.
83% of votes in. Estimated 21,000 ballots remaining.
Regulators in Colorado let oil giants like Chevron, Oxy, and Civitas dodge over $1.3 BILLION in cleanup obligations for nearly 15,000 dead oil and gas sites.
This scandal should be much bigger news.
Corporations extracted the wealth, walked away with the profits, and left behind abandoned wells, open spills, contaminated land, and all kinds of pollution risks near people's homes, schools, rivers, and water wells.
When our land, air, and water are sacrificed for robber barons, we're the ones who are on the hook for cleaning up their mess.
It's a textbook example of privatized profits and socialized harm.
🚨ALERT: In a major development, the U.S. Supreme Court has indicated it will invalidate state laws that allow ballots to be counted after Election Day.
Justice Alito pointed out that it's called “Election DAY” for a reason.
@OrevaZSN If job hours lined up with schools more parents could save $ not having to pay childcare costs.
They could easily bring their kid to school and be at the school on time to pick them up.
More people could enjoy the sun and outdoors for the majority of the year.
The 9-to-5 system should be completely abolished. Workdays should be 10-3 or 9-2. There’s no reason people should spend most of their lives at work. Let people go home and have time for their families, partners, friends, and rest. This is why so many people hate their jobs.
It's funny how the female reporter is just sitting there all calm while the man who told you that a woman is too emotional to be president is having a full blown crash out on national TV.
The Nashville Zoo has launched a public campaign to block construction of a proposed 69,000-square-foot AI data center that would sit directly adjacent to habitats for endangered animals, including vulnerable clouded leopards.
Zoo officials warn that the facility’s constant noise, bright artificial lighting, and electrical hum could seriously disrupt animal behavior, stress levels, and long-established breeding programs. The zoo is home to more than 3,700 animals representing over 350 species and maintains one of the most important collections of rare and endangered wildlife in the United States.
This conflict highlights a growing backlash against the rapid expansion of data centers driven by the AI boom. These facilities require massive amounts of electricity and operate 24 hours a day, prompting communities nationwide to raise concerns about energy consumption, water use, noise pollution, and environmental impacts. Wildlife conservation groups are now joining the resistance.
More than 180,000 people have already signed a petition opposing the project.
The developer behind the data center states that it will use waterless cooling systems, meet all local noise regulations, and comply with environmental standards. However, zoo leaders argue that the location itself, immediately next to sensitive animal habitats, makes the project unacceptable regardless of technical mitigations.
The dispute underscores a broader challenge of the AI era: how to build the vast digital infrastructure needed for artificial intelligence without placing undue pressure on local communities, ecosystems, and wildlife.
@AdmiralChickyFA Mai Vang needs to beat her in the general we don't need more politicians supporting Netanyahu bombing more civilians and taking their land.
The more Israel detractors in congress there are the better.
