Mass shooting at a Rhode Island at a high school hockey game. 1 dead and 4 wounded. Deaths will continue endlessly! Gun are a health crisis. 415 million guns available with few restrictions. 100% probability that an angry; hating; alienated; disturbed individual will use a gun to enact his violence!

The only POTUS worse than 45 is now, officially, 47.
The polling is THAT bad now.
That's why they want to rig the elections. They know it's gonna be a bloodbath on top of a massacre on top of a political genocide.
They're scared. We need to keep the pressure I n them & apply it even harder.

The DoD and Department of Energy (DoE) on Sunday airlifted a small nuclear reactor for the first time. The microreactor was transported 700 miles from California to Utah, where it will later be sent to a lab for testing. DoE said the goal is to have three of these untested reactors online by July 4.

Aside from the fact that property taxes are state taxes, Trump is ticking up his already almost perpetual stream of lies to capture the any vote by any means necessary. They don;t care how stupid these statements make them look if it gets the stupid ones to the polls.

Concerns over autocracy in the U.S. continue to grow
Is America still a democracy? Scholars tell NPR that after the last year under President Trump, the country has slid closer to autocracy or may already be there.
"Under competitive authoritarianism, countries still hold elections, but the ruling party uses various tactics β attacking the press, disenfranchising voters, weaponizing the justice system and threatening critics β to tilt the electoral playing field in its favor."

Exclusive: Pentagon warns Anthropic will "pay a price" as feud escalates
The Pentagon may label Anthropic a "supply chain risk," forcing all its vendors to sever ties.
We live in an autocratic oligarchic hellhole.
The Pentagon is basically saying that if Anthropic doesn't drop its demands over restricting the use of AI in autonomous drone targeting and surveillance of Americans, it will essentially destroy the company.

C-SPAN screenshot of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at a press conference in Phoenix. Text above quotes a reporter asking whether CBP shot a party balloon mistaken for a drone with a laser and why it wasnβt coordinated with the FAA. Noem responds vaguely about a joint agency task force and ongoing communication before ending the press conference.
Remember when Noem went before cameras right away to label Renee Good and Alex Pretti as βdomestic terroristsβ? Before any investigation had even happened?
