"the amount of compute the industry is building this year is probably, call it, 10-15 gigawatts. It goes up by roughly 3x a year. So next year’s 30-40 gigawatts. 2028 might be 100 gigawatts. 2029 might be like 300 gigawatts" #energysky

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

I am The Post’s ‘federal government whisperer.’ It’s been brutal. One reporter’s effort to show how Trump was transforming government brought her 1,168 new sources — and nearly broke her.

The FBI searched the home of a Washington Post reporter seeking classified state documents. Nothing she wrote about could be considered classified. They simply want to suppress dissent via intimidation. Don't let them. Here is what she wrote. Please share.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

It's a lot easier to cover the soap opera of the Trump attacks on Comey & James than the destruction of NASA, the Department of Education, EPA, NOAA, the IRS, etc

Opinion | A Playbook for Law Firms and Colleges to Stand Up to President Trump Law firms and universities do not need to capitulate. Here’s how they can fight back.

Brilliant and true and a challenge: Which side will you stand on (law firms, universities, anyone).

Respondents emphasize that Abrego Garcia was improperly removed to El Sal- vador because, although he could be removed anywhere else in the world under a 2019 order of removal, that order granted statutory withholding of removal to El Sal- vador alone. But, while the United States concedes that removal to El Salvador was an administrative error, see App., infra, 60a, that does not license district courts to seize control over foreign relations, treat the Executive Branch as a subordinate dip- lomat, and demand that the United States let a member of a foreign terrorist organ- ization into America tonight. For starters, because MS-13 members such as Abrego Garcia have since been designated members of a foreign terrorist organization, they are no longer eligible for withholding of removal under 8 U.S.C. 1231(b)(3)(B). Fur- ther, the United States has ensured that aliens removed to CECOT in El Salvador will not be tortured, and it would not have removed any alien to El Salvador for such detention if doing so would violate its obligations under the Convention Against Tor- ture. Moreover, respondents treat the relief here as “routine,” Resp. C.A. Stay Opp. 1, but that relief goes far beyond merely facilitating an alien’s return, which is what courts have ordered in other cases. This order—and its demand to accomplish sensitive foreign negotiations post-haste, and effectuate Abrego Garcia’s return to- night—is unprecedented and indefensible.

If the Supreme Court decides that the government can "erroneously" disappear you off the street to a foreign torture prison, and that federal courts have no power to do anything about it, that is, in a meaningful way, Pretty Much It www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24...

Ignore us at your peril, GOP.

Keep after them folks! Capitol Switchboard:

Our founders wrote a constitution that does not begin with 'we the dictators' or 'we the corporations'.

The preamble says we the people! - @raskin.house.gov

All across the country in big and small ways Americans are rising up to say hands off and hell no.

Can you make this doc shareable?

Schumer and Gillibrand only need four other Ds to join them in shredding the Constitution. They currently have 14 options.

We have to talk about the absolutely insane CR the GOP has proposed.

This bill formally abdicates Congressional authority over the budget and allows the Executive to sequester funds for any reason or no reason at all.

In exchange for keeping the government open, Republicans are demanding:
-cuts to the programs that run Head Start and Community Health Centers
-$12 billion increase to defense
-$3.5 billion increase to DHS
-Congress relinquish some of its tariff oversight to Trump
-DC enact immediate budget cuts

Our Government Is Experiencing a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly Musk is moving fast and breaking important things

This isn’t a hypothetical question: Musk, with backing from Donald Trump, is blowing up significant parts of the U.S. government as you read this. And we can already see the shape of multiple potential disasters.
