she/her #RESIST I want people who represent our public consciousness in the WH, so could we clone MLK,Jr., Abe Lincoln, Michelle Obama, & Eugene Debs, for ex’s?
@aikiboy2k@caslernoel@GOP@RNC 🤦🏻♀️ 👉 “disparity between generosity shown to Wall St.(>$3 trillion of public $$$ spent, w/ extra $12.2 trillion from US gov & conspicuous lack of relief for household debtors has made it quite clear whose debts are expected to be honored and whose are not.”https://t.co/chNhjV8v2u
Every American should be outraged by what Trump has done to our nation's 250th birthday celebration. What should have been a once-in-a-generation moment to unite the country has been turned into another vehicle for division, propaganda, and political gain.
We uncovered how he hijacked America 250 – watch to see how.
BREAKING: CNN just aired a devastating montage of all the times that Donald Trump accused others of using their public office to make money. Donald Trump's net worth has almost tripled since he took office. Everything he accuses others of is an open admission.
I thought it might help you to hear this from somebody who doesn’t have a horse in this race, just to help you understand the level of unbridled self-enrichment going on every day as Americans struggle with affordability.
It is truly sickening

@POTUS WHY DON’T YOU SAY SOMETHING RIGHTEOUS AND HOPEFUL FOR ONCE (like this ex., when you still had SOME truth in you???) INSTEAD OF WORKING WITH THE RWNJs & 1% TO TURN AMERICA INTO A PURITANICAL 💩HOLE??? Why don’t you dig how better it is w/o WARS???☮️
@RightsRule250@DemocraticWins Trumps first day (2nd term) was to reinstate the billionaire tax loophole (huge tax black hole), allowing income earned in the U.S. to be shuttled off shore to enormous accounts elsewhere, cheating Americans of much needed taxes. That “reflecting” pool is working perfectly—SCUM!!
@DemocraticWins Has to be done by Constitutional Amendment to have lasting teeth. It should be the # 1 priority of the country. Our politics are drowning in big money which is why we are in this huge mess.
@DemocraticWins Yeah, we've been waiting several decades for the ERA constitutional amendment that still hasn't happened. Seems faster way to get rid of Citizens United is to only elect peeps to the House and Senate that sign a pledge they WILL pass a law that repeals and gets rid of it.

Here’s an in-depth New York Times article on how Trump, his family, and his cronies are abusing their government power to line their pockets and using billions of your tax dollars to facilitate their grifting. Note that the $8.9 billion in federal money going to the 14 Trump and Lutnick companies is equal to the entire amount of federal assistance Western North Carolina has received for Hurricane Helene recovery.
Rampant corruption in plain sight . . . and Republicans see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil.
Here’s an excerpt from the article and a free link to the entire piece:
“Ahead of the deal, the Trump administration approved preliminary applications for as much as $1.6 billion in federal financing for the American company, now called Kaz Resources, which plans to break ground on the project in rural Kazakhstan.
It was not only Mr. Trump and Mr. Lutnick who saw an opportunity.
Their sons were soon doing business with partners in a deal that their fathers were negotiating, continuing a pattern of self-enrichment in the second Trump administration that has few precedents in American history.”
. . . . .
“One or both families have financial ties to at least 14 companies that are actively working with the federal government on critical mining deals, including the Kazakhstan project, according to federal filings examined by The New York Times.
All 14 of these companies have either benefited directly from offers of financial assistance from the Trump administration, or have pending permit applications before the Commerce Department, which Mr. Lutnick oversees, The Times found. The total amount of federal funding that the Trump administration has provided or is considering providing to the companies exceeds $8.9 billion, according to public statements by the companies and federal government.”

Erin Brockovich is now tracking more than 5,000 community concerns about AI data centers across the United States.
The renowned environmental activist has created a nationwide map that tracks AI data centers that are operating, under construction, proposed, or facing local opposition.
Reports have surged in recent weeks. On June 2, the tracker showed just over 3,000 community submissions. By June 9, that number had climbed past 5,000.
The worries are very real. Residents are raising alarms about skyrocketing electricity demand, massive water consumption, constant noise, strain on local infrastructure, electronic waste, flooding risks, and the overall burden these industrial-scale facilities place on small towns and rural areas.
Data centers serve as the physical foundation of artificial intelligence, powering everything from chatbots and image generators to cloud services and video models. But keeping the servers running 24/7 requires enormous resources.
A single large data center can consume up to 5 million gallons of water per day, equivalent to the daily water usage of a town of 10,000 to 50,000 people. They also used about 4.4% of total U.S. electricity in 2023, a figure the Department of Energy projects could rise to 6.7–12% by 2028.
This rapid growth has sparked growing local backlash. Several cities and counties have already imposed moratoriums or restrictions on new data centers to assess their impact on water supplies, power grids, and household utility bills. Seattle, for example, approved a one-year pause, with similar measures taken in parts of Kentucky, California, and Georgia.
@GenoVeno73 When the Obamas were
in our WH, I felt proud of and hopeful for America, because SMART people really, really like/d the Obama’s’ for their intelligence, their integrity, & their class, like “when they go low, we go high.” President Obama was/is highly intelligent and respected!
Ossoff: There is this beautiful little island off of the Albanian coast. And Jared Kushner wants it. So, he took his Saudi billions and he decided he and Ivanka would buy the island and build a luxury resort, and like clockwork, just a few weeks after Trump wins a second term, Albania's PM grants Jared's company strategic investor status, permitting his expedited to help the American prince develop his new island.
And it turns out that ordinary Albanians are not fans of this arrangement. There are massive protests. Tens of thousands of people in the streets. They are calling at the flamingo revolution. All sparked by opposition to Jared Kushner's land deal. Now Albania's anti-corruption police are getting ball. They froze a bank account controlled by two of Jared's investors, both Syrian billionaires
Do you think Jared Kushner would get special island-buying privileges if you were not the president's son-in-law?
