The whole 9-9-6 culture is an attempt for these people to;
A) justify their professional existence; most of these people don’t create anything useful
B) when 0.1% of them make it big through what will be A LOT of luck they can claim it was all hard work - ignoring all the other 9-9-6ers who failed

We are walking into a world where one day we will be told "oh we can't shut down the AI datacenters, because if we do that, your washing machine, refrigerator and central heating system will cease to function". We need to resist now when we buy anything.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Something I've been trying to impart on people is that the ICE occupation in Minnesota is both an ethnic cleansing and an ideological terror campaign. It's clear that the second part has utterly failed; the community is not terrified. But ICE is now desperately trying to salvage the first part.

Reminder that, in recent days, children have rallied and protested for their freedom inside an ICE detention center where water has been described as "putrid" and meals reportedly contain “bugs,” dirt, and debris. This is where the kidnapped 5-year-old Liam Ramos is being held.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally."

In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.

Carrying out violence against a targeted group with the goal of affecting political outcomes is how this country defines terrorism and I am struggling to come up with a clear reason why the federal rampage on Minneapolis shouldn’t be thought of that way
Pam Bondi's conditions for Minnesota: 1) give us all your state data on your food programs, including SNAP 2) repeal all your sanctuary policies in the state (since it has led to "so much crime and violence") and 3) hand over your state voting rolls. Letter here: www.fox9.com/news/minneap...

More people were executed in 2025 than any year since 2009 — not because the death penalty is popular, but because a few state officials latched onto President’s Trump’s directive to embrace executions.

We must abolish the death penalty once and for all.
Death Penalty Executions Nearly Doubled in 2025, Even as Support and Sentences Decline
The U.S. carried out 47 executions in 2025—the highest total in years—despite falling public support, fewer death sentences, and growing evidence of racial bias, wrongful convictions, and political abuse of capital punishment.
