Evidently the Secretary of Energy has never been outside in winter. Wright says it’s not windy in winter. Data says otherwise. - E&E News by POLITICO share.google/v33eIcBex4u9...

Why Aren’t We Partying Like It’s 1999? Fear, not hope, permeates today’s technology hype

By all indications, AI has blown a massive bubble. It can't last much longer. The fallout will be ugly. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/why-arent-...

Not sure if they burn up on reentry or not. Not all things do. It doesn't take a very big object to hit the ground really, really hard.

During Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter, people learned to protest. Now, we're learning there's a lot of us. Next, we learn how to organize effectively and create action to build a better tomorrow. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXEm...

The total, deliberate lack of respect Republicans hold for Democrats will not be forgotten...and the members of the MSM who want to know why Democrats aren't being more bipartisan in this regime can go straight to the hell they've written us all into.

These people are stupid, but they're also too clever by half. Deliberately being confused about a person's name is one of the oldest and lamest conceits.

Getting the word out is the start of everything.

Our cities and neighborhoods are under attack from the ICE Gestapo, but the opposition is responding brilliantly.

Here's a belief I have faith in.

We need every @democrats.org politician to pick at least one issue and take a stand. Stick to it. Fight for it. Fight for us. Fight for America.

I had to flee the US – as a foreign, Black, pro-Palestinian activist, I tick every box on Ice’s list | Amandla Thomas-Johnson I’ve never been accused of any crimes, let alone prosecuted. My experience sums-up the draconian plight of non-citizens in the US, says journalist Amandla Thomas-Johnson

The story of having to flee the USA for the crime of committing journalism. It's a sad time, and will forever be remembered with shame. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is trying to warn us about something. Are we listening? Jackson enters her fourth year on the supreme court on Monday. As its fiercest liberal voice wary of Trump’s growing power, she faces an intense battle ahead

Clarence Thomas didn't speak a word from the bench for 10yrs, waiting to unleash hell on the USA. Ketanji Brown Jackson has no need to be silent. She speaks truth about justice. May she have her time in the majority too. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Why Gen Z protesters worldwide are flying an anime pirate flag Gen Z protesters from Indonesia and Nepal to Madagascar and Morocco, are rallying behind an unexpected banner: a grinning skull in a straw hat.

Gen Z might just be the ones to figure out the billionaires are using wedge issues to divide us against each other so we don't notice they're robbing us...and it's a worldwide movement. www.npr.org/2025/10/05/n...

Federal workers sue the Education Department over partisan shutdown emails Employees say their out-of-office messages were changed without their consent to include language blaming Democrats for the shutdown.

Department of Education workers aren't too keen on the Trump regime putting Hatch Act violations into their mouths. I'll bet that applies to a lot of federal workers right now. www.npr.org/2025/10/05/n...

Stephen Miller is an idiot. He's always been an idiot. He'll always be an idiot. Unfortunately this idiot and Russell vote are mostly running the country.

This was good news. Is Trump prepared to commute Maxwell's sentence, tying himself even tighter to Jeffrey Epstein. He might, if it's needed to cement Ghislaine's silence.

bingo

“I don’t know this woman, Ghislaine Maxwell — never met her. My lawyer only coached her for, what, eight hours? Then she gets transferred to Club Fed’s Yoga Camp. Total coincidence!” - DJT

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

That's a lot of space debris!

Our cities and neighborhood are under attack by white supremacist fascists.

Staying nonviolent is absolutely critical.

She's so fierce.

Trump's end goal is to transform our entire government into an oligarchy working for HIM, *not* the American people. He gets there by lying, hiring loyalists, and sowing chaos, doubt, fear, and hate. Trump is doing Putin's work FOR him.

RESIST! It's now or never.

This is normalization of federal troops in our cities, a step toward normalization of federal troops committing violence in our cities.

If you're new or uneducated in protest movements, read this to learn about entrapment. Spoiler alert: the grenade, in this case, is imaginary or presented to protesters as part of the entrapment. Avoid being set up by dishonest law enforcement.

It's probably a surprise MAGA hasn't attempted entrapment against the nonviolent opposition already. It's only a matter of time. Good luck with it. The opposition has been studying hard, working hard, organizing hard for quite a while now.

When Peggy Noonan figures out there's something wrong with a Republican, there's something very wrong.
