As a DC resident I do feel that the city has been overrun by "violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals" and I would like them to leave the White House and stop destroying the federal government.

Don't worry RFK Jr didn't meet with any CDC staff during his visit today. We were left out of his drop-in. Only a few high level leadership were with him today. He didn't even stop to talk to the staff who were outside at the memorial for Officer Rose.

Attention, United States!

Russian propagandists keep talking about Russian territorial claims on Alaska from time to time. I've made a compilation for you.

Add alt text VOTEVETS RESPONDS TO TRUMP'S “HORRIFYING MISUSE” OF THE NATIONAL GUARD IN DC "The National Guard, when federalized, is no different from the active force. As a retired Soldier, I am calling this out for what it is - and what others who have served surely recognize - a horrifying misuse of our military. "Using the National Guard has become a pattern for Trump. This isn't the first time or city we've seen this tactic used, we but it needs to be the last.. Using the military to create political theater as a means of distraction is nothing more than intimidation. Make no mistake - the deployment of active duty Marines and federalized California National duty Marines and rede Guard in Los Angeles was blatant political intimidation, as well. "Right now, Republicans are lying about abysmal job numbers and trying to gerrymander Texas because they can't run on their record. The National Guard should not be called upon to pose for photographs and intimidate residents to make Trump look tough on crime. "Trump himself refused to activate the Guard when our Capitol was under attack; he should be embarrassed he is activating them now - specifically in blue state cities - to be the shiny object during an already failed presidency."

@votevets.org Responds to Trump’s Use of the National Guard in DC:

“Trump himself refused to activate the Guard when our Capitol was under attack; he should be embarrassed he is activating them now.” 🔥

The murder rate is on track to be the lowest in U.S. history due to President Biden’s executive actions & Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (signed into law on 2022 after Uvalde & Buffalo) that included community violence intervention programs. The Trump administration had nothing to do with it!

4/ Make sure you know the facts. Make sure you share the facts with others in your circle. American democracy depends on us. Don’t listen to people who tell you that you can’t make a difference, this is our moment and our generation’s fight for democracy.

3/Trump’s complaints about crime in D.C. are false. And it’s more than just the lie about crime: He declined to deploy the Guard on Jan 6—when doing so would have been appropriate, claiming he lacked that power. Yet now, he has suddenly, and without a valid reason, ordered the troops to mobilize.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive GLOBAL study revealed COVID-19 vaccines utilizing mRNA technology PREVENTED OVER 2.5 MILLION deaths WORLDWIDE between 2020 and 2024.

It reveals that vaccinations didn’t JUST protect against illness.

They PRESERVED nearly 15 MILLION years of human life.

This was never not going to happen. Of course food is rotting in the fields.

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

🚨 Sources close to the DC mayor and police say, Trump will deploy 1,000 National Guard troops into D.C. tomorrow/Monday.

• For context, Los Angeles is 502.7 square miles, and he deployed 4,000 troops there.

• Washington, D.C. is only 68.3 square miles.

This is what cities under siege look like.

As electric bills rise, evidence mounts that data centers share blame. States feel pressure to act Amid rising electric bills, states are under pressure to insulate regular household and business ratepayers from the costs of feeding Big Tech’s energy-hungry data centers.

States are under pressure to make Big Tech pay for rising energy costs & not spread it across household & business rate payers

Research for the mid-Atlantic grid by independent market watchdog Monitoring Analytics, showed $9.3 billion of last year’s cost increase was due to data center use
