I’m just a naïve professor of politics, but it seems to me that it wouldn’t be *that* hard to mandate that every data center project add sufficient renewable capacity to zero out its impact on the grid.

… and when the bubble bursts we’d at least be left with *some* kind of economic & social good.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

The stock market's gains are being overwhelmingly driven by seven Big Tech companies who have invested heavily in AI, which has made tech oligarchs even wealthier.

But when that AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag.

Be warned.

🔥 WATCH: “Republicans in Congress cut all THIS (Medicaid, SNAP) so they could pay for THAT (tax cuts for the rich)… follow the money.”

@warnock.senate.gov joins Coach Sully to use the cups to show who Republicans are really fighting for — the richest among us.

If reporters could remove their lips from Trump's backside for a minute b/c he didn't act like a flaming asshole in a photo op with Mamdani, perhaps they could focus on the fact he (Trump) is selling out Ukraine to the Russians. I don't know, just a thought.

Today I saw a Cybertruck with a trailer hitch. It was adorable, kind of like seeing a small child with a toy cell phone pretending to have a conversation.

NEW: The White House intervened in a DHS investigation.

The target? Sex offender Andrew Tate.

The WH person? Paul “Nazi Streak” Ingrassia.

Who was previously also Tate’s lawyer.

A banger from @robert-faturechi.bsky.social & Avi Asher-Shapiro

Editorial Board. Hitler never called a female journalist a pig to her face. It’s time for these fascist comparisons to stop.

Interesting that Steinbeck stuck this into Of Mice and Men, so that 8th- and 9th-grade students would suddenly sit up and pay attention in 2025. #sixseven

✔️ Court records cannot be destroyed....✅

✅Court filings and exhibits in civil and criminal Epstein cases are:

✅Held by multiple courts

✅Copied by multiple parties

✅Archived by PACER

✅Replicated by private legal databases

✅They exist in many redundant locations, making destruction impossible.

Extreme wealth causes, exacerbates and galvanizes deeply psychotic anti-human insanities.

So hey, regulate it, like reckless driving or organized crime.

Michael Wolff tried to buy New York Mag — with money from Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein.

So Wolff didn't just have a reporter-source relationship with Epstein. Nor was Wolff his informal PR adviser. They saw each other as potential business partners.

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?
