Politics, bikes, history, running, economics, music, art, swimming, photography, environment. Culture, an appreciation of beauty, very bad language and barely suppressed rage are my superpowers.

There is quite literally nothing the Trump regime will not do to strengthen Russia & cement a tripartite division of globe into autocratic spheres of influence. Even to the point of strengthening Iranian hardliners to ramp up oil prices to benefit Russia - an oil comany with an armed forces attached

Another confirmed death due to the negligence of ice, this time here in San Diego. It has been confirmed that a person passed away on 10/24/26 at Otay Mesa concentration camp. We have received a report that the victim was experiencing convulsions and was being neglected medically. Chelsea Gods

Besides being racist and false, this suggests science is only carried out by a few geniuses who claim prizes, whereas in reality science relies on smart and diligent people committed to collaboration and discovery without special recognition.

It’s not the biggest problem with this idea but it’s dumb all around.

An area of California desert was recently lit up at night, baffling locals. Turns out it was the latest step in a US startup's bid to put 50,000 satellites in space to reflect sunlight back to Earth at nighttime via giant mirrors. This quest has many critics. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy. And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn

The idea of riding with Middle Schoolers off-campus can be 😱scary. But the reward is huge. They deserve to explore their community and there is no safer or better way than a biking field trip.

I wish to report that guy seeking to obtain an extra 11780 votes from Georgia in 2020. Keep the million but donate half each to humanitarian groups working in Palestine and Ukraine. Thank you !

Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.

🚨 NEWS: A federal judge has ruled that the Trump DOJ ILLEGALLY fired prosecutor Maurene Comey, ordering retroactive reinstatement and backpay. The judge ripped the DOJ’s defense as bordering on “frivolous” and rejected its sweeping claims of executive power.

The Trump administration's $25bn Polar LNG project on Alaska's North Slope will be turned over to a Kremlin proxy, the Financial Times and New York Times report, quoting former Exxon executives. For Alaska voters, this is the big October surprise as they head for the polls.

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Trump’s campaign “red state blitz” is turning into a traveling disaster. Hecklers, angry voters, Vivek’s disgusting ad, Ashley Hinson’s weak-ass embrace. Republicans are supposed to be closing strong in red states. Instead, they’re unraveling and the backlash is becoming the story.

“Cyclists are often perceived as recklessly flaunting road laws. A new study challenges this perception. The study found only 5% of cyclists broke road rules while riding on bike infrastructure versus 66% of motorists who broke rules while driving.” Safe bike infrastructure fuels rule-following.

Brian Kilmeade seems to think that Bill Clinton is steeped in more Jeffrey Epstein bile than anyone else. Pres. Trump was named 38,000 times in the files that were released. His admin. has fought to release the rest of the documents and reveal names of possible co-conspirators.

A quick check of court records establishes that all of the claims made by Amy Acton's estranged mother and aired by Ramaswamy are false. But then it appears she was simply reading a script that a Ramaswamy campaign staffer wrote for her. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...

Imagine being a CEO of an US energy company and thinking that you work with close associates of the Trump family, only to find out that behind them is a sanctioned Russian company, really pulling the strings.

NEW on @zeteo.com — Venues are *pulling out* of hosting Vivek Ramaswamy for his bus tour across Ohio in the closing days of the election. “We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there,” a top Ohio Republican says. “It’s that damn ad.” From @andrewperez.bsky.social and @swin24.bsky.social:
