RCFP is currently representing me in my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan Police to release body cam footage from their raid on the US Institute of Peace earlier this year.

Please support them so they can further their vital work of maintaining journalists' First Amendment rights!
When the government refuses to release public records, we take action. When reporters are arrested for doing their job, we speak up.

This #GivingTuesday, support press freedom and the First Amendment with a donation to @rcfp.org: donate.rcfp.org/giving-tuesd...

A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”

As a community I think it’s important we acknowledge the fact that regardless of sexuality Tucker Carlson is a HUGE fucking loser.

National parks have SO MANY people from other countries (since they get real vacations!)

And they spend a lot of money on hotels, food, souvenirs, etc.

This is unbelievably dumb, it will destroy entire tourist towns

While discussing his crime-fighting efforts in Washington, D.C., President Trump claimed that it’s been months since the city has seen a murder. But that's not true. There have been 62 homicides in Washington since May, including one last week.
FACT FOCUS: Trump gets it wrong claiming no murders in DC for the last six months
In addition to pardoning two North Carolina turkeys at the annual White House ceremony, President Donald Trump discussed his crime-fighting efforts in Washington, D.C., claiming that it’s been six months since the city has seen a murder.

I assume Rush Hour 4 will fix this.
Average electricity cost increase since Jan:

Missouri ⬆️ 37%
Iowa ⬆️ 30%
North Dakota ⬆️ 30%
Oklahoma ⬆️ 30%
New Jersey ⬆️ 27%
Nebraska ⬆️ 25%
Montana ⬆️ 25%
Wyoming ⬆️ 23%

NATIONWIDE ⬆️ 11%

Instead of working to lower costs, Trump is boosting power-hungry AI data centers.
