Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman says most white-collar work "will be fully automated by an AI within the next 12 to 18 months.”

If that’s true, it’s an economic earthquake.

We need a moratorium on new AI data centers to make sure AI works for workers, not just billionaires.

A photo of Rev. Jesse Jackson speaking during an interview in July 1983.

Reverend Jesse Jackson was one of America’s greatest patriots. He spent his life summoning all of us to fulfill the promise of America and building the coalitions to make that promise real. A son of Greenville, South Carolina, Reverend Jackson first rose to the national stage as one of the young leaders of the Civil Rights Movement. His presidential runs in 1984 and 1988 electrified millions of Americans and showed them what could be possible. From Washington, DC to the Bay Area, from the Mississippi Delta to Appalachia, from South Africa to the South Side of Chicago, Reverend Jackson gave a voice to people who were removed from power and politics. He let us know our voices mattered. He instilled in us that we were somebody. And he widened the path for generations to follow in his footsteps and lead.

Over the past seven years, we’ve gotten big things done for Illinois.

THE “EPSTEIN CLASS”

The DOJ is using selective redactions and half lists that protect the powerful while intentionally confusing the public.

They’re protecting reputations, not survivors.
@khanna.house.gov

You can feel it. Hundreds of millions of people from around the world, are coming together in a more synchronized manner for the purpose of making sure those who committed Epstein crimes…are forced to watch with the world…as their names and companies are broadcast around the world. It’s coming.

And what the fuck would these ruthless criminals know about "sensitive nature"?

The left-over MAGAts prove themselves to be increasingly ignorant... such suckers and fools.

Hillary Clinton accuses Trump administration of Epstein files cover-up in BBC interview "Get the files out. They are slow-walking it," the former US secretary of state says. The White House says it has done "more for the victims than Democrats ever did".

Outside Trump Tower in NYC on President’s Day, protesters reminded him that he’s the worst president in history.

NOTE

I am not suicidal; I don't drink or do drugs; my blood pressure and cholesterol are normal; I don't engage in high-risk activities; my vehicles are well kept and newly serviced.

If anything happens to me, please assume foul play and only let state agents—not federal—access my data and drafts.

Awesome! Looking forward to visiting when it opens.

And this is a preview of what the center looks like from the inside as it gets prepared for the official opening in June

Thank you, Obama Foundation, for sending ONEST this video.

Happy President's Day to Barack Obama & Joseph Biden, 2 of the greatest presidents in modern times!

AOC: “You are the Attorney General of the United States of America & you don't want to hold anyone of these pedophiles accountable — resign or be impeached"

Nice!💙

The Obamas are the epitome of sophistication, class, intelligence, grace, decency and love. I’m so desperately missing presence like this in the White House.

Trump recently suggested that he is getting ready to issue a new anti-voting executive order. Last time he issued one, we sued and won. If he does it again, we will sue and win. Trump knows this. It is why he and his allies hate and attack me.

I will never back down or stop fighting for democracy.

Two cases and the grease that breaks democracy The obvious lesson many are drawing is that ordinary citizens are more reliable protectors of democracy than judges in black robes.

What happened in Fulton County last month is a tragedy for the future of free and fair elections.

If we want to prevent the scales from toppling over altogether, the events of the last month must serve as a necessary wake-up call for the federal judiciary, Marc Elias writes.

Barack and Michelle Obama received a standing ovation at the NBA All-Star Game—Happy Black History Month 🙏🏾
