Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

NEW: About 90,000 people living near larger chemical plants face an unacceptable risk of developing cancer, the EPA says.
New rules adopted last year could’ve cut that number to 3,000 residents — a drop of 97%.
But Trump has halted those efforts.

Let me get this right, fascist republicans say there’s no money to address the ongoing Healthcare crisis in the US but there is money for the orange felon’s $250M ballroom, $172M for racist dog murderer Kristi Noem’s two jets and a $40B giveaway to Argentina’s dictator. Got it.

“Hey. I’m the actual Zohran Mamdani. Not the guy they talk about on this channel.”
Zohran runs an ad on Fox News to undercut their endless unhinged fearmongering and greed-fueled racism.

the democratic party’s basic problem is it has almost no control over how its message reaches the ears of voters, especially outside of presidential election years. but rather than devote serious time, attention and cash to that problem its consultants and pundits want to fight factional battles
