Locally in Virginia, rural counties are debating land‑use again. Careful zoning is essential to environment and to aesthetics.

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Zelensky: The speed limits on Starlink and Starshield are still there. The speed has not been restored. And the delivery of interceptors to protect us against Russian ballistic missiles is still delayed. This is a real problem, because the Russians attack us almost every single day.

Energy costs are rising into winter. I’m grateful for the people who plan ahead quietly. And my heart aches for people not in a position to plan.

Maybe @royalmcpoyle.bsky.social finds repetition annoying. Maybe this is more palatable: "The President of the United States commits treason. But that's not all!! He also rapes. He is the full villain package."

CDC noting rising RSV cases. MAGA will have a mask-burning party.

So cute when rich people entice local government to pay for the stadium with promises of increased tax revenue, job creation.....but then all the profit gets "expensed away" and jobs are "sanitation engineer."

Tech companies pushed new data‑collection updates this week and you can count on the fact it will be nothing good for consumers or the public.

The migrant boat disaster off Djibouti is another entry in a ledger of preventable tragedies.

There should never be a presumption of guilt. www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

Donald is looking like a hot mess today. Good.

Netanyahu helped Kushner hide $1 billion in UAE funds at Israel's central bank, new book claims. This is from Israeli media www.ynetnews.com/article/b1av...

I'm old enough to remember when Jared Kushner thought it was a good idea to use the Russian embassy to conduct secure communications during an American presidential transition

Just a few hours ago, President Trump said in the Oval Office that I should be tried in court because I dared to talk about the corruption coming out of the White House.

Donald Trump cares about his billionaire buddies over the American people. Just take a look at his Big Ugly Bill. Tax breaks for billionaires at the expense of Americans’ healthcare and food assistance.

And it was actually a prisoner exchange in which we gave them an actual Russian criminal and we also gave them diplomatic cover in a war of aggression — not only morally shameful and personally humiliating but as a negotiation absolutely laughably unequal.

Vladimir Putin is a war criminal. He's responsible for killing over 150,000 Ukrainians — including more than 15,000 civilians — and the murder of political opponents & dissidents.   Witkoff & Trump's bootlicking is an embarrassment to our country.

The Trump admin could have challenged voter rolls months ago. Their timing says this is just a political trick, not legit concern. They don’t care if they are disproven after the election is over—just like “caravans of criminals” who disappeared once election day passed.

NEW, from Bloomberg News: “Elon Musk has now given more than $445 million in the current election cycle.”

This is one of the most holy sh*t stories I’ve ever read in my life. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...

Yes to be clear; holy sh*t here means a very high stakes version of "Woah, if true!". The Kushner lawyers call it completely fabricated and "defamatory," which is quoted in the literal introduction to the booK! (I've never seen that before).

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history. Mary Trump understands that and formed Transcend PAC to hold him accountable and elect bold leaders who will put people first. I’m honored to have their endorsement.

Nearly $1B in oil bets right before ceasefire announcements? On this episode of The Steady State’s Daily Swamp, we break down suspicious oil trades timed around U.S.–Iran ceasefires and how the CFTC investigation was abruptly derailed. Don't forget to like, share, and follow - see you tomorrow! 🐊

Feminism, in many ways, can be reduced to a simple concept: Fair Math.

In 2020, Jared Kushner was senior advisor to the president of the United States, a full-time employee of the United States government, and was subject to numerous disclosure requirements and ethical restrictions under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978.

Odd. This should be trending every minute of every day. Front page, above the fold.

"Record Profits" and "Layoffs" always together. Best friends. #Conjoined #Twins

Trump ordered US diplomats to leave Riyadh yesterday. There’s little coverage but seems even more relevant today? Jared Kushner’s Hacked 2017 Phone Revealed His Secret Negotiations with MbS, MBZ & Bibi—& $700+ million in personal bank transfers to him. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-... #SPECTRE

Donald Trump has sent his DOJ cronies to file a bullshit lawsuit to try to steal a Senate election in Alaska. They will fail. When we fight, we win.🗳️⚖️💪

Very few Americans know this and the implication is self-evident. #Occupied

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

Drug prices continue to climb. Do you think the cost of raw material went up? Do you believe they are paying lab techs more? Is there a chance price went up because quality improved? *** Perhaps to satisfy shareholder demands? Maybe they raised prices simply because they can. #greed

We could not excise the Trump Malignancy after his felonies, rapes, bankruptcies, crypto scams. Comparatively, she is a tear-that-sticker-off-hotel-mattress level offender.

Enjoy the rest of the week. -Bill go.bsky.app/NDCPB7y

Congressional investigators want full documentation on civilian deaths in Iran. This is a non-negotiable variety of accountability is not optional in a republic. #Iran

Social Security is a contract between citizens and the government they allow to exist. Tread carefully.

I lament having to sharing space with him on the same physical plane. Use the same oxygen.

I feel ambivalently. While I am happy about voter protection, it is a bit jarring such a thing is necessary. #Virginia www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

NATO’s warning to Kyiv about refinery strikes is blunt, as such rhetoric tends to become during escalation.

Zelensky showed the world how to kick millions of bots off social media against Elon's wishes.

Do I resemble a very aggressive realtor? "Mr. Trump, please note the 8 foot ceilings in this private residence, with en-suite toilet/sink unit, a view of the exercise yard and solid concrete floors. Only a five minute walk to the warden's office." #Sales #Conviction #Trump

The CDC confirms the Pennsylvania measles outbreak has passed a thousand cases. This public health collapse is an unforced error. It did not have to happen and seems to be a choice made by leaders unqualified to navigate the territory.

I do not assess or judge her personal choice of image as a woman. As a person, the body language and demeanor are not convincing. The and the nervous shifting seem a sign she is herself uncomfortable with what she is saying.

This man strikes me one playing a role, wanting to convince.

The administration’s decision to defend the Russian diesel agreement is already drawing bipartisan criticism. Energy policy rarely survives contact with geopolitics.

This is authentic joy and love. It cannot be manufactured on cue for photo opportunity.

The campus tours in which he preyed on young, easily influenced students...we are seeing him for who he is, a man with the single-minded objective of advancing Israel's agenda, cloaked in Conservative rhetoric. #Predation

Iran shifts its targeting strategy toward “harder” Western military sites, according to U.K. intelligence. #Regret
