I know I've said this before, but I have to say it again: It's not a ballroom. And he's not leaving. In 2015, I said that if he ever gets into the White House, he won't leave without violence. Jan. 6 showed that violence, but it didn't work. That time. They learned the lessons. The so-called "ballroom" is actually being built by contractors that build 1) large scale, bomb proof bunkers and 2) massive data centers for consolidated digital control. The bunker they're building goes down into the bedrock and will be able to withstand direct missile attacks. The ballroom is just the top part of it to hide the rest. These were no-bid contracts to military and government contractors. His people have already said he'll be President in 2029 and the Supreme Court just handed down a ruling yesterday that will ensure control of Congress by legalizing massive gerrymandering. Chatter in D.C. is that he'll replace Thomas and Alito with young Justices that will continue to do what he wants for decades. Many, many decades.

I cannot state this clearly enough, people: He. Is not. Leaving. That bunker will be his home as of 2028 when the election doesn't go his way. He'll declare victory, followed shortly by declaring martial law. They have already declared that Constitutionally legal protestors are "domestic terrorists" and the ICE facilities built around the country can house those who try to protest the election.

He. Is not. Leaving. And that. Is not. A ballroom.

It's a last stand.

The contractor building the bunker is the same that built the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency campus, CISA Cybersecurity Headquarters, and USCENTCOM headquarters. The architect is the one who hardened the Pentagon after 9/11 to withstand direct attack, including nuclear. The main contractor claims to build "Confidential Client Data Centers 1 through 6" secure, restricted-access data centers. These are hardened, SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) bunkers to house AI-focused command and control facilities, all powered by the massive data theft by Musk and the so-called DOGE bros. They now have all information on all citizens that have ever payed taxes, used social media, or owned cell phones.

He. Is not. Leaving. And that is NOT a ballroom.

#BREAKING: MY Nicolle: “I’ve not heard you this angry in a long time.”

Marc Elias: “…have we learned nothing?…has the broader legal community not leaned anything?…have people not learned that when you do this to Black voters it turns out bad for democracy for everybody? So yeah, I’m angry. I’m angry because of the appalling SILENCE that is going on right now around this case and the aftermath.”😳

This is deadly psychological warfare. It is deliberately traumatizing disinformation designed to cause people to voluntarily expose themselves to sickness and death. It should not be legal, much less come from a Senator.

Elon Musk is essentially arguing in federal court that he's angry that he can't recreate the 1948-94 apartheid era of South Africa in the United States, and your dumb ass is out here driving his cars making him rich(er).

Louisiana - they stopped an election.

You’d think that corrupt as fuck Samuel Alito using cooked data to justify killing the Voting Rights Act - would be enough to nullify that decision.

Not standing up to data centers will be one of the last mistakes we make.

I wish this was fake but residents near Driscoll’s berry farms report a 38% higher incidence of childhood cancer.

Santa Cruz County is the heart of California's $3B strawberry industry and home to Driscoll's world headquarters.

Coincidentally, it also has the second-highest childhood cancer rate of any county in California.

At 22.5 childhood cancers per 100,000 children, the rate is more than 38% above the statewide average of 16.3.

Over 5,060 acres of pesticides linked to those same cancers are sprayed in the Pajaro Valley every year to grow 40% of California's strawberries.

Worst of all, it’s often next to schools and homes where children spend most of their time.

According to the latest data, over 2,000,000 pounds of pesticides were applied just in this school district’s area alone.

Driscoll’s is reported to apply two together:
1. 1,3-D: fumigant used to sterilize the soil, officially listed by the state as a carcinogen, causes tumors in multiple animal studies
2. Chloropicrin: originally deployed as a chemical weapon in World War I, so toxic that it kills or disables test animals before scientists can even evaluate its long-term carcinogenicity

But yeah it’s probably just a coincidence all the kids are getting cancer?

This is why you need to be buying local and seasonal fruit.

Do not trust major corporations to do the right thing for our food or health.

Elon Musk called Hitler a socialist then Grok correctly debunks him by pointing out Hitler rejected Marxism and ran a fascist system that prioritized nationalism and private enterprise. Grok then explains socialism is class equality and worker ownership!

Sweeping changes are coming for the U.S. Forest Service, which manages roughly a third of America’s public land. The agency announced a dramatic overhaul of cuts, closures and consolidation.

That’s on top of the Trump administration's latest budget request that seeks to slash billions of dollars. But some worry it could undermine the agency's mission.

We learned from COVID 19 that oil is worthless in a society without consumption, healthcare has to be public because health is public, 50% of jobs can be done from home while the other 50% deserve more than they're being paid, and that we live in a society, not an economy.

Kevin O'Leary's proposed data center in Utah will require 9 Gigawatts of energy to function when fully built, double Utah's current energy usage for the entire state.

It will dump around 23 atomic bombs worth of thermal load on the environment every day.

[Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren]

Elon Musk spent $290 million to elect Trump.

Musk got $512 billion richer since Trump was elected & is now worth $815 billion.

He wants to cut Social Security and Medicare by $500-$700 billion a year.

You’re not angry enough.

🦔The City of Tucson has revoked a temporary water meter Project Blue's contractor was using to truck Tucson drinking water out to a data center construction site that the City Council had explicitly rejected last August. Beale Infrastructure's contractor Ames Construction obtained the meter on April 24, then transported the water outside Tucson's service area to a project Pima County had separately approved over city objections.
City Manager Tim Thomure asked Beale Infrastructure to make the city whole with two acre-feet of water credits. Project Blue says it is procuring construction water from an alternative source going forward. Arizona has been in drought conditions for over thirty years, and the project has faced sustained protests over environmental impact and transparency.

My Take
Building a hyperscale data center in the Sonoran Desert was already an aggressive choice given the water constraints, but trucking municipal drinking water out of a city that voted unanimously against the project is the kind of behavior that turns local opposition into national news. Beale's contractor obtained a permit through normal channels and used it in a way the city had specifically rejected, which technically followed procedure while completely violating the spirit of the council vote. The fact that a citizen tip triggered the investigation rather than any internal compliance check tells me the developer was banking on nobody noticing.

I honestly keep coming back to how predictable this story is. Pima County approved the project over the city's objections, the developer told everyone Project Blue could not be built without Tucson water, and then the moment construction started they found a workaround that involved using Tucson water anyway. That sequence is a useful preview of how the AI infrastructure buildout is going to play out in every drought-stressed jurisdiction with weak coordination between county and municipal authorities. Hyperscale data centers consume water at a scale that does not fit the existing regulatory categories, and developers are exploiting the gaps faster than local governments can close them. Tucson got lucky that someone was paying attention, but most communities in Project Blue's situation will not.

There's an obvious reason why the Republican Supreme Court Justices sound so nervous. During their confirmation hearings, these justices sat under oath and promised that Roe v. Wade was settled law. They lied. They told us they were independent. Then they quietly accepted luxury mega-yacht vacations from right-wing billionaires, flew insurrectionist flags outside their homes, and used shadow dockets to dismantle decades of worker and environmental protections.
Now, trying to persuade the public that a Republican-controlled Court issuing Republican-friendly decisions is not a Republican body has never been more difficult.
Now that their public approval has cratered, they are showing up to fancy think tanks to complain that Americans are being unfair to them. They are desperately demanding to be treated like impartial umpires who simply call balls and strikes.
But, ultimately, you do not get to strip away the bodily autonomy of millions of women, pocket millions in undisclosed gifts from conservative mega-donors, and then cry about a lack of respect.

ICYMI, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the talking points for a memo which sought to gut the Voting Rights Act—for Reagan, in 1982. It has been his lifelong project to disenfranchise Black people.

Very, very tired of racist old white men dragging us backwards.
