As I said, my conscious is clear. I voted accordingly for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Kamala Harris in 2024 (respectfully).

Trump has fully shattered the world we all grew up in. It’s a dramatic break from how things worked before, even compared to the Iraq War and other misadventures - the United States abruptly tumbling over a cliff and becoming literally more reckless and domineering than Putin’s Russia.

Sen. Whitehouse to uncover connections between Trump, Russia, and Epstein. YouTube video by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

Good speech. Most US press got bamboozled by Bill Barr's scheme. Trump's collusion with Russia was always real, continues to be. www.youtube.com/live/ylvTFvJ...

Elbridge Colby, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, son of an investment banker, educated at Groton, Harvard, & Yale, is precisely the kind of elitist white man that Trump & Vance favor & why they so oppose DEI, which would result in more qualified men & women of color holding such positions.

The Real Reason Trump Went to War Trump has called for sending American forces to Iran since 1980. He finally has, and must own the consequences.

"Believing that Trump was somehow a 'peace president' devoted to American restraint, as some credulous commentators claimed, required ignoring everything he’d said before he was president and everything he’d done after he became president."

ICO writes to Meta over 'concerning' AI smart glasses report Videos, including of glasses-wearers using the toilet or having sex, are sometimes reviewed by a Kenya-based subcontractor.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, β€œI do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
