Who in the White House has the authority to order the Pentagon to do anything? 🤔

NEW: The order to throttle Starlink (Starshield) came from the White House to the Pentagon. I still think Elon was involved, though. He’s currently a Pentagon employee as well www.reuters.com/world/europe...

I cannot stop thinking about three families who sent their children to elementary school this morning and will never bring them home again. So spare me the fucking thoughts and prayers. Spare me the speeches about how now isn't the time to talk about guns.

Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

Gary, Indiana is 77% percent Black. Thousands have been without power for nearly two weeks. Many are without safe water. Yet every data center is operational & using enormous amounts of both power and water. This is what oligarchy looks like. Everyone suffers so the 1% can make even more.

The 60 largest planned data centers could produce the same amount of carbon dioxide emissions as 27 coal plants. Big Tech CEOs are polluting our planet and selling out our future to line their own pockets. We need a data center moratorium — now.

"This is not normal. This is not sane. This is not something that we should just shrug and accept. This should be enough evidence that this man has abandoned the rule of law, our system of justice that depends on facts—and should be removed from office." www.americaamerica.news/p/lost-in-fa...

This is what Trump’s arrogant creeps propose for the Smithsonian’s American history museum. “A label at every entrance that reads: ‘Warning: the exhibits in this museum were prepared by people who don’t want you to love your country.’” open.substack.com/pub/america/...

open.substack.comFor Love of CountryYou cannot really love our country if you refuse to embrace its complex history. The Smithsonian gets it. Donald Trump never will.

My new report reveals FEMA staff were secretly diverted from their life-saving work to serve as the "operational backbone" of ICE. We're in the middle of hurricane and wildfire season. This decision leaves every American less safe when disaster strikes.

Consider the logic. They didn't comply. We had the right to kill them. It's the mind of a criminal. Or a rapist. She didn't submit, so I raped her. Just disgusting, immoral, depraved thinking.

Homan on people getting killed by ICE: "It comes down to one simple fact -- these people failed to comply with law enforcement ... all they had to do is comply. If they did, they'd be alive today."

The air is full of smoke, the food is full of parasites, and the water is full of data center bacteria but at least we stopped all that DEI children's cancer research!

People don't want masked thugs terrorizing their neighbors. They don't want warehouses being turned into detention centers. They don't want billions of taxpayer dollars spent on a rogue police state. They want healthcare. They want affordable homes. They want their basic needs met.

The extremist Supreme Court supermajority that gave Trump near-total immunity now has given him free rein to get rid of leaders of regulatory agencies not loyal to him & his wishes. Forget self-governance. These partisan hacks want a king. This must stop. It begins with defeating the GOP on 11/3.

Trans people just want the right to exist safely as their true selves, like everyone else. But they’ve become easy scapegoats for the conservative moment, which vilifies them and threatens to criminalize their very existence. It's straight from the authoritarian playbook. Shameful.

This court just allowed the wealthiest and biggest corporations to funnel even more money into our elections.   Money is money- not speech. It is far past time we pass a constitutional amendment to wipe away the egregious Citizens United ruling that laid the foundation for this decision.

Is this a scene cut from The Godfather, a new Democratic Party campaign ad, or both? Today’s Republican Party no longer has any purpose other than achieving whatever Trump wants, which is mainly to make Trump richer and more powerful. The GOP is now effectively Trump’s mafia organization.

This is the future Big Oil built for us. Fossil fuel companies knew decades ago that their products would drive increasingly severe and frequent heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires, but lied to protect their own profits at the expense of public health and safety. The public deserves accountability.

GOOD NEWS! A personalized mRNA vaccine, known as mRNA-4157, has shown promise in keeping melanoma, a deadly skin cancer, from returning. FIVE years later, NEARLY 70% of people in the vaccine group are CANCER-FREE. The vaccine also cut a person’s risk of the cancer metastasizing by NEARLY 60%.
