There’s lots of empty land in and near Mar-a-Lago and Bedminster, and for that matter at the very spacious estates of the tech oligarchs and the nice campuses of the tech companies. Those seem like easy places to put data centers.

The governor of Florida and his wife stole ten million dollars from a charity, but CNN would rather spend another week on blatant Islamophobic character assassination of Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, because they work for MAGA billionaires.

Make no mistake—this is Mike Rogers' position on data centers. He's got up to $2.6 million invested in companies cashing in on the data center boom, all while Michiganders watch their utility bills soar.

Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506. Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America. This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

Tanker struck in Hormuz, raising worries over escalation, as Trump vows to hit Iran 'hard'

The Pentagon influencer scandal keeps getting bigger. More partisan online personalities. More government jobs. More taxpayer money. Who hired them, what are they being paid to do, and are military officers violating the UCMJ? This deserves answers.

NO 👇 LIES DETECTED.........

Having ultra wealthy people is not a sign of a healthy society. It is a sign of a diseased society.

Holy shit this is bad. Strait of Hormuz = free transit for 60 days, after that it’s up to Iran and Oman Nothing on missiles. All Iranian sanctions removed. $300 billion to Iran on top of releasing all frozen funds. We didn’t win a single point. Holy shit.

Motherfucker can't even win a war against algae.

Scott MacFarlane reports from the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool: despite millions in cost overruns, hydrogen peroxide treatments, and endless manpower, the pool remains very, very green.

President Biden giving Jay Leno thrills in his ‘67 Vette

I’ve never followed sports but boy this Brooklyn, New York girl had to watch this game and what a joy to see the Knicks win the NBA finals!!! WOW!! Happy Days are here again.

MS NOW: Mitch McConnell has been admitted to the hospital. The cause of his hospitalization and condition are not known.

📌So I see the sickly Mitch McConnell is getting the kind of excellent medical care he spent his entire miserable career ensuring nobody else got …

It's probably not healthy that I'm entertaining myself by watching DC weather radar.

Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood is now officially on YouTube. Current.org reports "up to 10 new full episodes added to the channel monthly, ideally based on a theme or holiday." There were 896 episodes filmed. Plus compilations. www.youtube.com/@MisterRoger...

THANK you, KTLA

MSNOW is apparently going to broadcast this trash fire at the White House. [ click ]

Federal lawsuit denied. The judicial system has failed us — again. Despite the hue and cry of many concerned people, this disgraceful event will proceed.

I'm sick of listening to people sanewashing his enormous wealth, built on the backs of people struggling to survive. F#ck him. #USDemocracy

My wife is in labor! The Knicks have to win so my son is born in NYC on the day New York wins the NBA finals for the first time in 53 years. Give this baby a story to tell. My baby is about to arrive, Knicks in 5!!!

No more programs on CNN, Paramount movies-WBD, CBS, FOX, News National, FBN, FNC. I refuse to be programmed by fools. I will not follow the idiot pied piper in charge. I will only watch independent shows, movies and programming. My initial recourse is reading a book.

Apple TV is the only major streaming service that doesn’t have an ad-supported tier yet, and Apple as a company has a huge devices business that allows it to pursue different priorities. Read more from @jank0.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/column/94829...

The Ellisons now own TikTok, Paramount, Warner Bros, CBS News, HBO, Comedy Central, and CNN, among other major channels. They are also the largest private donor to "Friends of the IDF." They also paid $7 billion for streaming rights to UFC, which is hosting an event at the White House.

There should be no such thing as a trillionaire

Well that was quick

MacFarlane: A commercial airline pilot near Reagan National Airport earlier this week reported a safety concern—or safety incident—from a lighting display potentially connected to the UFC construction site on the White House South Lawn.

the reporting that CBS is trying to land Rogan makes some sense to me from CBS's perspective, but what on earth could Rogan possibly get out of it? he makes like 100M a year to host a low effort podcast that reaches way more people than any CBS program.

Scott Pelley struck a nerve among MAGA supporters cheering on Bari Weiss’ overhaul of “60 Minutes.”

Trump (right before the market opened): Iran really wants to make a deal Iran: actually we’re suspending all communications

If Jesus were a Democrat and the Devil were a Republican, Texans would vote for the Devil.

Campos: While I want to thank CBS news for funding this generous gift towards my education, I want to acknowledge how the recent direction of the outlet stains the legacy of Mike Wallace, the namesake of this scholarship.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but an economy controlled by a handful of oligarchs isn't a "free market."

Why is the gym full of young people at 9 am in the morning? Do people no longer work 8am to 5 pm?

FYI: no progress has been made between the US and Iran on a “final agreement” This is nothing more than a TACO buffet for Cinco de Mayo.

The decision to explicitly aid Trump’s agenda has triggered a mass exodus of staff, hamstringing the department’s ability to prosecute white-collar crime and narcotics trafficking cases, according to more than a dozen sources that spoke with the outlet. trib.al/t4QoAWk

The next Democratic president must fully embrace expanding the Supreme Court. Full stop.

This hits hard. Not because it’s new but because it’s still true! This isn’t just sad stats.This is real life for millions of women and it deserves more than silence! It’s time we start demanding better! Equality isn’t radical ….. it’s necessary! #SheShed #Equality #Feminism #EmpowerWomen

Lambert: The Strait of Hormuz is going to be open and we’re going to control it. Mockler: In two weeks? Lambert: It doesn’t matter if it’s two weeks or two months. Mockler: It does actually matter because economists are saying if it's closed for a few more months, we're going into a recession

Look if you've got a better way to run a country than "putting an illiterate octogenarian bigot on TV every few days to free associate and complain, and then everyone tries to figure out if it means we're about to start a war or not" I'd love to hear it. But the constitution says this is it.

I’m still talking about the Epstein files. I’m still speaking with Epstein survivors. The DOJ hasn’t released the complete files. We aren’t done here. 🔥

She sums it up this way: “I became a cringe MAGA influencer for 8 years before I found my brain.” Now she is ready to “talk about my experience within this machine of MAGA” and “speak about the inside of a system that nobody else is.” Then there was Elon's "breeding plan" for her.

We need politicians and candidates to start talking about HOW they are going to make healthcare BETTER. As a voter who opted out because of the skyrocketing cost, I know I’m not alone in saying this: we don’t need another speech. We need a “healthcare for all” plan. #HealthcareNotWarfare
