Voters soundly reject Trump's plot to rig the next election On Tuesday, Democrats passed new congressional maps, defeated GOP attempts to make it harder to vote, and protected pro-democracy judges.

On Tuesday, Democrats passed new congressional maps, defeated GOP attempts to make it harder to vote, and protected pro-democracy judges.

But, as Trump hints at ramping up his attempts to rig the midterm elections, voting rights advocates warn us that the real work is only just beginning.

I wonder where anyone would get the idea that they should use their position in the federal government to carry out personal vengeance missions?

As the orange felon continues his destruction of the White House, the United States and democracy, he is focusing his revenge on the arts and defacing historical structures. His latest move was firing the board overseeing DC construction projects. He wonโ€™t stop until itโ€™s all gone.

Just to be clear whoโ€™s to blame for SNAP cutoff:

1. Trump admin claims that a $5B emergency fund canโ€™t be used for it.

2. Thune said Trump wants to use SNAP cutoff as leverage.

3. 22 Dem states filed a lawsuit about it.

4. Dems willing to join many Rs for SNAP bill but Thune is blocking vote.

Eight Sleep adds โ€˜outage modeโ€™ to smart beds after AWS problems left them frozen Eight Sleep became No Sleep

Eight Sleep owners were shocked to find they could not adjust their beds using the app when AWS was down. The company has now put out an update that uses Bluetooth so beds won't be stuck in an upright position because you were reading in bed whenever there's an AWS outage.

Welcome to the future.

Trump says he's targeting crime with National Guard deployments. In reality, he's focusing on large Democratic cities in blue states.

Fukuyama debunks the AI abundance myth: we can't feed or clothe all not due to a lack of smarts, but priorities and resources.

The world simply can't sustain the abundant lifestyle AI proponents promise, lacking even the electricity to run the very AI they favor.

AI companies are spending billions on deals with each other, which boost their value.

This has helped twenty billionaires tied to AI add $450B to their fortunes in 2025.

Meanwhile, an MIT study found that 95% of companies using AI haven't seen returns on investment.

Be warned.
