Just so we are clear, the #EpsteinFiles Clive Palmer revelations are an indication of TREASON.

If true, Clive Palmer engaged in misinformation of Australian citizens in an attempt to impact an election on behalf of the interests of a foreign nation.

Aust Fed Police, over to you.

Clive Palmer as Liberal Party cut out. Who knew?
The billionaire “said all planning and execution of the campaign, which was dominated by anti-China and anti-climate change messages, was carried out in close consultation with then-finance minister Mathias Cormann.”

Every day
Trump: [says something absolutely horrible]
Media: Why did the president say that
WH: Obviously the president didn't say that
Trump: Yes I did
WH: Ah well nevertheless
NEW STORY: Trump admits he was the one who found the video and asked that it be posted from his Truth Social account. Refuses to apologize.

He’ll be dead of his multiple comorbidities before then but wouldn’t that be something…
“House Republicans have just created a precedent that allows Congress to compel former presidents to testify under threat of contempt, which can result in charges that may lead to jail time. And Trump could be the next person to be targeted in this way if circumstances change on Capitol Hill.”

I heard one of their standard handmaidens this morning saying there is a feeling that spending needs to be reined in. Welfare, she says. Hospitals. No mention of obscene salaries these people take for doing exactly no work in the public interest.

ICE isn’t just targeting the Twin Cities. There’s horror stories in Mankato, Willmar and across Minnesota. Immigration attorneys are still getting hundreds of calls every day from every corner of the state.

ICE out now.

Even if Bovino gets fired, ICE has to go.
Even if Noem is out, ICE has to go.
Even when Trump leaves office, ICE has to go.

As protests grow and ICE's popularity drops, we may see concessions and leadership changes, like Bovino's departure. ICE still has to go.

I doubt if anyone respects me, but:

1. I've worked in AI on and off since 1985
2. I have a PhD
3. I used to manage an academic department of ~40 AI researchers
4. I've published ~100 articles on it

This AI tech is a con. It's a play for corporations to steal industries, wealth, & governance.
Calling all the PhDs I know to make monumental annoyances of themselves (and honestly, who better)

Trump just repeated again that China just builds wind turbines but did not use them themselves.

Truth is :they actually do. China has more wind power than any other country.

OH MY GOD THIS.

Greenland is a PLACE full of PEOPLE most of whom are INUIT and THEIR LIVES AND SOVEREIGNTY MATTER and every commentator turning this into a US/Denmark thing while ignoring the whole history of land grabs in the Americas by white people is

I mean

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I am begging people to just imagine for a second talking as if the lives of the people in Greenland are an important part of what is happening in Greenland.
We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.

This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

There's another one scheduled with over 270 attorneys registered.
At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.

That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

Cancel your Spotify subscription.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
