ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

Pretty crazy that nearly all of the EU Commission is still on X even as Elon Musk is literally talking about destroying the EU.

You can leave X. It's really not that difficult.
So what's the outcome?

2️⃣5️⃣ of the 27 Commissioners have posted in the last week

2️⃣4️⃣ of the 27 generally post every week (Albuquerque has never been on X, Ribera is sporadic, McGrath has somehow stopped)

0️⃣ have stopped as a result of what Twitter has become since the Musk takeover

Last night @aftynbehn.bsky.social showed us the playbook. Be bold. Be authentic. Run hard. Contest every seat. Young women are the future.

I’m running in KY-6 because I am Kentucky to my core. And I have bold solutions to our problems.

I can replicate the Aftyn playbook and flip KY-6.

Give Zuckerberg prison for life and strip Meta of all assets to fund public institutions for online protection and support for those harmed by his platforms. How many irredeemable pro-criminal and disgustingly unethical revelations does it take???
Instagram’s former head of safety and well-being Vaishnavi Jayakumar testified the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the trafficking of humans for sex.

“You could incur 16 violations and upon the 17th violation, your account would be suspended"

Normalizing the rape/trafficking/exploitation of children is happening in the United States of America in 2025. If this does not change your spending habits, who you support politically, and how you think about elected officials - you are perpetuating the idea that your daughters are open market.

To understand how Bari Weiss might approach climate coverage at CBS, I read every climate article the Free Press has published.

Almost every one reinforced a common fossil fuel industry talking point—that climate change is exaggerated, that solutions don't work, and that fossil fuels = freedom
Bari Weiss vs. climate change
At The Free Press, Weiss consistently rebrands tired fossil fuel talking points as courageous, rebellious dissent.

It got drowned out in all the good news from last night, but Boston Mayor Michelle Wu became the youngest person to be reelected in the city's history.

She ran unopposed because her opponent--Patriots owner Bob Kraft's son--withdrew a few months ago after realizing he had no hope of winning.

The Flinstones & Jetsons are identical social hierarchies - swapping dinosaurs for flying cars. 🦖

And ZERO societal progress.

AI Bros grew up as young white boys hoping to keep society structurally identical - with a couple extra gadgets.

So OUR vision of social modernity clashes with theirs. 🧵

To be clear on what they're proposing: human beings using water for drinking, washing, and growing crops will be rationed.

The AI datacenters will have all the water they can contaminate.
Some places will have to start rationing water - to enable AI slop.

"A data center like Meta’s, which was completed last year, typically guzzles around 500,000 gallons of water a day. New data centers [will] require millions of gallons of water a day"
