AI Is Supercharging the War on Libraries, Education, and Human Knowledge "Fascism and AI, whether or not they have the same goals, they sure are working to accelerate one another."

Ouch. Still some WFP here in the North County, but saw several candidates Dem/Con - including the Franklin County Dem chair who is County Clerk.

It is not just Jacobs who needs to be replaced, many county parties are controlled by people who are just Jacob clones at best.

Democrat's second line is The Working Families Party - even here in conservative North Country.

Jeffries: "There's additional funds that are available to be reallocated so that not a single person in this country goes hungry. And if that happens beginning on November 1, it's because Donald Trump and Republicans want the American people to go hungry."

Make them swear in Adelita Grijalva who unlocks the 218th signature needed to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

I feel blessed to live in a country that has free and fair elections. So I just signed up for premium membership of Democracy Docket, to support the less fortunate US citizens.

"At this moment in time, of course, the release of the TRUMPSTEIN Files is really the public's main priority."

Donald Trump did the same thing to the Constitution's Wall of Separation Between Church and State.

A Third of ICE-Academy Recruits Are Failing Out Push-ups, sit-ups, and a brisk jog pose a threat to Trump’s deportation campaign.

SCOOP: more than a third of new recruits at the ICE training academy have failed the personal fitness test -- so many that the agency has had to start pre-screening new hires to weed out what one official called "athletically allergic candidates" www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

All of the talk of "doxing ICE agents" should be a non-premise because law enforcement agents working for the government shouldn't have anonymity to begin with. "Steve Johnson from Duluth is a cop" should be a matter of public record. You're a government employee not fucking Banksy

Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez warned Wednesday night that the nation’s health care system could collapse if Republicans don’t agree to their demands in a deal to end the federal government shutdown.

The new Superman movie had a better newspaper that most of us do now.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

“According to Strength in Numbers, the Disney boycott quickly became four times as large as any boycott over the last five years.

Disney's stock dipped about 3.5 percent and continued to trade lower in subsequent days — a loss in market value amounting to some $4 billion.”

Transgender people are owed a retraction and apology from @wsj.com. The lie has already become canon to millions and it seems the least they could do.

The Utah governor's lonely crusade to make politics nice again Nobody wants to disagree better.

Utah's governor this morning trying to tamp down polarization and political violence in the wake of the Charlie Kirk murder. He was well positioned to be the voice of reason. I wrote about him last year and his lonely crusade to make politics nice again www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

How many Democratic Senators voted to approve this guy?

A before and after photo of a crosswalk with LGTBQ+ colors painted over with white and black at the Pulse memorial site near downtown Orlando, Florida.

The state of Florida came in overnight and painted over the Pulse Memorial site crosswalk in Orlando. This crosswalk abided by the state’s laws and was originally installed by them. To be clear, the state surreptitiously painted over this memorial at night against the city’s wishes. Cowards.

Do you know how insane and infuriating it is to live in a country where one party claims, with media and public support, the mantle of being the ‘tough on crime’ party while its leader openly calls for convicted criminals to be released from prison ‘or else’?

Ageism, sexism, racism, guns, and stupid people are a dangerous mix.

With the exception of several decades after the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, voter suppression is as American as apple pie.

Congress could stop this because that is there job.

So MAGA and Fox News can both-side anything.

I don’t know if Newsom, Shapiro and Rahm are idiots, but this is an idiotic strategy.

State Dept: Trump’s “Third Countries” for Immigrants Have Awful Human Rights Records The White House search for partners in its global gulag has grown to 64 nations. Most of them are notorious violators of human rights.

The U.S. has sought deals with 64 nations to participate in its growing global gulag. 58 of them — 91 percent — were rebuked for human rights violations in the State Department’s most recent human rights reports

Before retirement I worked in community and economic development. Information from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as well as demographic and other statistical data, was a key element of planning and assisting both community development and business growth.
