People ask why I fight so hard against the AI industry: It's because I'm an environmentalist. 🌱
I helped create Kansas City's Climate Protection Plan, was a keynote speaker for Climate Action KC, and worked with the Department of Energy through my work at an energy nonprofit—Protecting our environment has been my life's work. 🌾
I will always fight for our residents—and for those who don't have a voice—the animals we’ve met while door knocking: They don't have a vote, but they're still impacted by data centers. 👉 Donate to the movement: https://t.co/hH96PH4ADW
Whether it was the push for new sports stadiums or another data center, big money will always say it’s “an investment into the next generation” or “for those coming up” to sell their agenda. 😈
As the only Gen Z candidate in this county race, I can tell you our generation does not support data centers, the surveillance state, Flock cameras, or billionaire backed giveaways off your back. 💵
Don’t let companies like Nebius use kids as political props by whipping away school lunch debt while robbing those same kids of $150 Billion dollars—imagine what $150 Billion would do if it was actually invested into the community rather than a corporation? That’s why I’m running to kick the AI industry out of our community and why I’m for a permanent ban on data centers. 👉 Donate to the movement: https://t.co/hH96PH4ADW
Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb on Trump earning over $1 billion last year from crypto ventures: “We are seeing the greatest onslaught of corruption in the history of mankind.”
The court has spoken: Trump's attempt to get political revenge by shutting down the Hudson Tunnel project wasn't just illegal, but "flagrantly" unlawful.
This ruling is good news for the thousands of workers building the project and the hundreds of thousands of commuters who will depend on it - but these unlawful antics never should have happened in the first place.
Birthright citizenship is more than a law...it is a promise that if you are born here, you belong here.
On the eve of America's 250th birthday, may we always keep this promise: "We The People" means all of us.
Today, Danny Glover and his family shared his Alzheimer's diagnosis with extraordinary courage. By telling their story, they're helping millions of families feel seen, less alone and more hopeful. We're grateful for his voice and partnership with the Alzheimer's Association. #ENDALZ

Hasan Piker: “Democrats feared that Zohran Mamdani would win and succeed and then they would have to face the very same demands: why can’t you be like him? Their entire theory for maintaining power revolves around being slaves to corporations, placing the interests of corporations and the super wealthy above your interests. Every single victory for democratic socialism destroys that narrative”
Republican Rep. Tom Kean Jr. took four months off from Congress, fully paid, to treat depression. Time and again, he’s voted against paid sick leave legislation.
What a goddamn hypocrite. 😡

🏳️🌈 Representation matters, especially at the local level. That’s why I’m running to make history as the first openly LGBTQ+ resident elected to the county—and if elected, I’d be the only openly LGBTQ+ county official in ruby red Missouri! 🌾
But know that I’ll fight for every resident, no matter who you love or how you identify. On the last day of Pride month, let’s build a movement that lasts. Let’s make history this August 4th—donate: https://t.co/hH96PH4ADW
YOU WANTED A WALL, TRUMP? YOU’LL HAVE ONE.
Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, responded to Trump’s threats:
“So you voted to build a wall.
Well then, dear Americans — even if geography isn’t your strong suit, and you see America as a country rather than a continent — you should know that on the other side of that wall stand 7 billion people.
And if the word ‘people’ doesn’t resonate with you, let’s call them ‘consumers.’
Those 7 billion consumers can switch from iPhone to Samsung or Huawei in less than two days.
They can trade Levi’s for Zara or Massimo Dutti, and within six months replace Ford and Chevrolet with Toyota, KIA, Mazda, Honda, Hyundai, Volvo, Subaru, Renault, or BMW — brands that are already more popular in many places.
They can cancel DirecTV.
And even if they choose not to, they can stop watching Hollywood films and turn instead to higher-quality productions from Latin America or Europe — with richer storytelling and better filmmaking.
Believe it or not, people can skip Disney and visit the Xcaret resort in Cancún instead — or explore destinations across Mexico, Canada, or South America.
Even in Mexico, you can find better burgers than McDonald’s — with higher nutritional value.
Have you ever seen pyramids in the United States?
Egypt, Mexico, Peru, Guatemala, and Sudan have ancient wonders — none of them in the U.S.
If they were, Trump would probably have bought and resold them by now.
We know Nike isn’t the only sneaker brand. There’s Adidas — and even Mexican brands like Panama.
We understand economics better than you think.
And we also know that when those 7 billion consumers stop buying American products, unemployment will rise, and your economy — trapped behind its own self-imposed wall — will begin to collapse to the point where you’ll be begging for help.
We didn’t want to do this.
But you wanted a wall?
Well.
You’ve got one.”
Her approval rating has reached a historic level — according to a recent poll, it stands at 85%.
BREAKING: There are already 30 data centers in Kansas City—now a 20 story data center is being proposed downtown! 🏗️
If you think it stops there, think again: There was supposed to be one Google data center—they’re currently constructing their second one. There was supposed to be one Nebius data center in Independence—now leaked documents reveal plans for a second data center on the way. This is a takeover. 🌊
I've been clear from day one: I support a permanent BAN of all all data centers—because the weak, temporary moratoriums politicians are passing aren’t stopping this take over. Vote August 4th—and let’s kick the AI industry out of our community! 💪🏽 👉 Donate to the movement: https://t.co/hH96PH4ADW
One bite can mean a lot. It’s a moment to rest. It’s a message that somebody cares.
After a long day helping with cleanup, Jeremy Vargas enjoys an arepa provided by the @wckitchen team in La Guaira. In these hard times, a comforting meal can mean the world. #ChefsForVenezuela
RECORD TEMPS... AND, YES, IT IS PRIMARILY DUE TO FOSSIL FUELS AND CO2 EMISSIONS... MAN MADE.
BUT... PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT REDUCES PROFITS OF MEGA CORPS.
