Hello, Round Rockers!! We’ve got about a week to stop a proposal to construct a data center and substation in the midst of an established residential neighborhood. Help us get the word out and come to the public hearing on February 12 at 6pm, City Hall. #RoundRockTX @protectroundrock.bsky.social

Spotted in downtown @roundrock today. Clearly public sentiment is opposed to any more data centers in our city. There are already eight operational, under construction, or approved. Not one more!

Dear @markwarner.bsky.social and @kaine.senate.gov

It has come to our attention that the funds allocated to ICE exceed the spending for the entire U.S. Marine Corps.

ICE is going after Minnesotans, U.S Citizens, like they are the sworn enemy. This is not sustainable.

Perhaps a few emails to Ford management are in order. Just saying.
