A January memo from the Department of Justice

Electricity bill going up?

One study found that AI data centers were responsible for 63% of price hikes for customers of PJM — the nation's largest electric grid.

Meanwhile, Trump is pushing for more private-sector usage of AI and fast tracking permits for more data centers.

A review for a Little Caesar’s somewhere by Kevin S: Stopped into this Little Caesars just trying to get a $6 pizza and ended up in a full on action movie. Just as I grabbed my order, this furious dude barges in yelling about how I cut him off in traffic earlier. Before I can even respond, he throws a punch but then out of nowhere the guy behind the counter jumps over it like he's been waiting for this moment his whole life and just beats the living hell out of the guy. The guy ran off and the cashier just dusted himself off. I said "are you ok man" and he looked me dead in the eye and said "B*tch, this is Little Caesars. We always hot and ready." Five stars. Will absolutely return.

I AM SHRIEKING 💀🤣

“One of [America’s] great strengths is that . . . we do not allow the Army, Navy, and the Marines and Air Force to be a police force. History is replete with countries that allowed that to happen. Disaster is the result.”

“Superman is too woke!”

Literally the first page of the first ever appearance of Superman:

PENCE: “TARIFFS ARE A TAX… American importers, businesses and ultimately consumers end up paying all of that $300 BILLION. We're paying that.”

Whoops 😬

The Epstein List went from "sitting on [Pam Bondi's] desk right now" to "there is no list" in just a few months!

Republican Rep. Robert Bresnahan sold shares in a Medicaid health provider just weeks before voting for the Big Ugly Bill — which of course slashes Medicaid.

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks, don't you think?

What a beauty. I'm so sorry for your loss. It's so hard to let them go.

Floods are getting more dangerous around the country, not just in Texas The deadly floods in Central Texas were caused by extremely heavy rain. Climate change is causing even more rain to fall during the heaviest storms.

"His wife’s words of wisdom paid off" hell yeah they did

Texas officials are blasting the National Weather Service for failing to predict the amount of rain that caused the deadly flooding in Texas.

Trump cut funds to NOAA and FEMA and gutted the weather service. Trump and Musk. This is all on Trump and Musk.
