1/ I was reading an investigative piece about Viktor Orban's party scrambling before Hungary's 2026 elections. Buried in it was something that stopped me cold. His team was panicking because social media companies had changed how they operate in the EU. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
Buried in the chaos: the big ugly bill passed solely by Rs at Trump’s demand accelerates the crisis for Medicare and SS. Per CBOs updated projections, Medicare could be insolvent by 2040—10 yrs sooner—and SS by 2031. All this to give tax cuts to billionaires and leaving the rest of us struggling.

When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast.
They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...
Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland.
Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M.
America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech.
This is what integrity looks like.
This indicates the FBI wanted to pursue a criminal child sex trafficking investigation into Donald Trump based on this woman’s account. She refused to cooperate. When Trump came up an FBI interview, her lawyer demurred, citing her “fear of retaliation”
It’s likely Acosta
Good question
In a 5-minute phone call to dispatchers, a federal immigration officer requests police backup last October to help with a kid tailing him on a motorized bicycle. "I need someone here now, or else I'm going to have to shoot this kid," the officer said on a recording of the call obtained by OPB.

this is a really powerful piece.
Radiocarbon dating shows these prints date to the late Iron Age — moments in the lives of people who walked this landscape two millennia ago, a few centuries before the first reference to the Picts. #Archaeology at the University of Aberdeen!

A federal panel made up entirely of Trump appointees just greenlit his massive ballroom, reportedly larger than the White House itself.
The panel received 2,000 public comments on the East Wing renovation. 99% were negative.
They approved it anyway. Unanimously.

Hmm..I checked into his career. Wiki: started out as intern in Arnold’s admin b4 he dropped out of college. Next, the McCain campaign in 2008. He then worked on campaigns of 3 no-names in Ca Nv Az & Tx. 4 year gap between the last one listed & Trump in 2016. He is 43. I agree about the suspect HD
The New York Times smeared AOC for saying “um”
No medical intervention is risk-free. It’s senseless to fear a routine immunization while preventable diseases can result in invasive procedures, IV antibiotics, permanent brain damage. We need to be willing to ask hard questions about medical neglect of a child

What in the cotton-picking dystopia are we doing now?
Trump claims to 'fix' housing? Meanwhile, families face climbing prices ＆ can only afford a literal shed on wheels! He blames everyone but the profiteers he protects. #TrumpAffordabilityChaos
Babies having babies. Wasn’t she 16 or 17 when Tyler was born?
Yep, he’s already caught one neglect or abuse charge for the exact same situation. He’s on probation for the credit card fraud so he violated probation. Thank goodness a decent person found the baby
FACT CHECK:
Of the ~$170B+ in Ukraine assistance approved since 2022, an estimated 55–65% was spent in the U.S. — replacing older weapons, boosting domestic production, and funding U.S. defense contracts.
Roughly 20–25% went as direct budget support to Ukraine.
It was not just cash sent overseas.
A post so smart I'm almost afraid to share it.
