Uh I don't even know what that is. My first thought was finding water in the desert. I'm sure it's something else, like cat fishing isn't cat fishing.

Spoke in Carroll, Iowa today. I met up with Catelyn Drey who recently flipped a red senate seat blue.

I used to go to the Do It Yourself Messiah at the Harris Theater in Millennium Park. It was two hours of Handel sung with 1,000 of my new best friends. It's stored in my memory as well.

Unbearably violent images from Downtown Chicago where a classical music concert was played on the Chicago River. This is too elegant and magical to be seen.

BlackRock is seeking to buy Aligned Data Centers, a data center construction company.

It’s also going to buy AES, one of the major power providers for Big Tech data centers.

While these data centers drive up your electricity costs, wealthy financiers are going to make a killing.

ICE will reportedly hire contractors to surveil social media platforms 24/7 to target people for deportations.

The information would then be funneled into an existing ICE database built by Palantir (founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel).
