Girls! Stop fighting. You're both pretty..

The FT reports 47 major US data center projects delayed or blocked in 2026. It’s estimated only 35% of the pipeline is credible. Microsoft also pulled out of Nscale’s UK project amid power delays stretching into the 2030s. Some AI infrastructure companies may not survive these delays.

"Women are often more aggressively targeted than men, and harder to recruit, said Greta Neubauer, the Democratic minority leader in the Wisconsin State Assembly. Mothers are more apt to avoid the risk to themselves and their families, she said." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/11/u...

Do you know how hard it is to lose the war if you're the United States? It's about as unlikely as bankrupting a casino.

“.. In Maine, the cost to fill a standard heating-oil tank as of Wednesday was $1,650, up roughly 80 percent from a year earlier ..” @nytimes.com #MEsen www.nytimes.com/2026/10/08/u...

Nothing says innocent like trying to get the prosecutor removed

Melanie is Right, don’t bother with Bezos….

reading this, recalling how quickly the killing of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman slipped out of the news

🤣🤣🤣

The most notable thing of the last so hours and the Schmitt-Hawkeye screw up of epic proportions, is how Trumpites are primed to pump out any narrative handed to them without thought or reflection. It’s Putinesque.

He wasn't kidding, he really is a shitty President.

As we talk about what happened at Cornell, please take a moment to learn about how a young LSU student is fighting for help against that school’s storied football program

What’s funny is that people don’t vote, and they do it so that they can feel like they’re not the ones responsible for any of this, but they’re probably the most responsible out of anybody.

"If voting didn’t matter much, foreign governments wouldn’t try to influence it. And if voting didn’t matter much, we wouldn’t see efforts in America to make it harder for certain people to vote. Your vote does matter." - Kim Wehle .

I might repost this 1000 times bc it is soooooo on brand for the grand old poopy pants party

TILLIS: is there anything you would have done differently? JACK: yes. One thing I was taught is you only do your talking in the courtroom. But if you stick to that, people can unfairly malign you and you can’t respond. But there are things being said that are untrue… 1/

I didnt know it gets funnier than a whole ass United States Senator accusing a man of being at a Hawks game in ATL when he was at a Hawkeyes game in MD, BUT... He let every media outlet know he had a big moment coming so they all saw him clown himself and watched Amy Klobuchar clean up the pieces.

Warren: "This has been their argument every time -- they cut taxes and say, 'Ultimately it's really going to pay off for you.' What's happened every time? The academics study it very carefully and say, 'What really happened is the richest people got richer and everybody else got left behind.'"

This is my favorite thing today. In second place is Senator Schmitt hoisting himself with his own petard during the Jack Smith hearing.

utterly incompetent...

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

Another day, another wild take from the man who knows nothing...

It continues to be interesting to me just how many men, when presented with a clear and obvious answer to a test of morality and empathy, will nevertheless choose to "devil's advocate" themselves into a position of complete assholery

The Golden Age is going so well, Americans are nostalgic for 2008.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

Trump openly using our tax dollars for a campaign ad is Trump reminding us he will NEVER leave the White House peacefully. Trump was convicted of 34 felonies for cheating in 2016 campaign, after 2020 election he attempted a coup and incited Jan 6 attack. Trump is the greatest threat to our Republic

After a long day at the aquarium, the otters help tidy their toys away. Payment is made promptly and entirely in ice cubes.

But I need to smile more.

I am just a candidate looking for debate…

Trump regime has killed at least 234 people by bombing boats in the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean since last September. Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. This is a danger to us all.

Should be reposted every month....

Room empties out at the UN as Netanyahu begins his speech.

NO FLUID was found in Nolan Wells' lungs or airways, per the autopsy report by the Mississippi State Medical Examiner. How do you die by "accidental drowning" if there is no water in your lungs?

Gov. @iamwesmoore.bsky.social: "President Trump seems to have a real problem with the constitution... he treats it like a suggestion box simply because he doesn't like the coverage."

I've counted 3 new impeachable offenses for the president and the administration *just in this past hour alone*

SERIOUSLY ASKING YOU: How much longer can things go on like this? Gas and food prices this high? His own voters are losing their minds over it and Congress was sent home in September. How much longer can things go on like this?

After Joe Biden's poor debate performance in 2024, people & reporters were aghast at how the White House covered up his mental decline. If reporters felt deceived, you think they would be more vigilant about reporting Trump's mental decline instead of sane washing his idiocy.
