So, how long until these data center companies start buying up electricity generation companies so that they can always be the priority for receiving power?

The people for who the Trump Administration has given the most gains are billionaires, Vladimir Putin, and nihilists who just want to make the world burn*.
The people who have gained the least are ordinary working folk, especially POCs and the rural poor.

If you ever wonder, “why is the Trump Administration doing this?” or “Why is the GOP not stopping him?” or “Why won’t Republicans help ordinary Americans?”, well, the answer is simple. It’s “fuck you”.
Just listen, watch their body language. Track their decisions.
It’s really quite obvious.

So they want to force a right wing club into schools whether they want it or not? How would they feel about forcing every school to have a “woke” club, like a LTBTQ alliance?
So much for local control of education.

I get that it's illegal to be a member of Palestine Action. It shouldn't be but it is. I'm not sure saying you support Palestine Action is though.
Surely there'd have to be some actual support beyond saying it? Am I now likely to be arrested if I say I support Greta Thunberg?
Ridiculous country

Release the REAL Epstein files. All of them. Unredacted except for victim's names and identifying details. And release them completely unredacted to senior Dems in Congress.

Worth repeating this with every new Epstein document drop. The party of Denny Hastert is the party of Jim Jordan is the party of Matt Gaetz is the party of Donald Trump. Looking the other way and protecting child predators from the law is their brand.

Of dealing with Rich White Anti Democratic Forces
The Supreme Court is a Partisan Political Action Committee
The Fourth Estate sold us out

* Foot traffic: +3.4%
* Storefront vacancy: -0.9%
* Pollution: -22%

So YES this has been a huge success.

I thought the whole point of a lease was that it gave you the right to be there until the end of the lease? What’s the point of having a lease if some shithead can just break it on a whim?

It would be nice to know, definitively, if Putin holds Trump (and anyone else) in Kompromat, but honestly, I don’t think it makes a difference; he’s still destroying the country no matter the reason behind it.
