Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.
“And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

Remember when Amazon held a sale during Independent Bookstore Day in an effort to undercut indie bookstores?
We didn’t forget. Support local bookstores during Small Business Saturday and beyond.

Today, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to use all of the funding at its disposal to fully fund SNAP benefits this month.
Not $0, not $12, not half, but 100%.
I say to President Trump: obey this court order NOW. Do not allow 16 million children to go hungry.

We are going to live in a world where the the marginal cost of electricity is very close to zero
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Congress established an emergency fund to ensure that millions of Americans on SNAP continue to receive nutrition assistance when funding expires in November.
Mr. President: Don’t let kids go hungry. Use these emergency funds to feed low-income families.

This is crazy. This is like someone from Mexico unilaterally deciding there is a person on a private boat coming to Catalina who is maybe doing something illegal and just blowing them up.
Why isn’t Congress, the Joint Chiefs, the military, or anyone else speaking up about it and stopping it!?

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death.

It is a very short step from the military killing alleged drug traffickers off the coast of Venezuela to the military, ICE, or others killing people inside the US for crimes, real or imagined, as directed by the president.

THE PURGE
Polls show that Project 2025 didn’t resonate. Voters thought it wasn’t real. Well, now we’re living it and it’s already 47% implemented after only 9 months.
Trump’s shutdown is a shortcut: gut the federal workforce, fire career experts, replace them with loyalists. Laid out in P2025.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.
