Protesters in Ithaca today are asking: where is Josh Riley?
As America falls into Fascism, Congressman Josh Riley is doing NOTHING to stop it.

Why is Josh Riley promoting bills that will encourage the construction of cryptocurrency and generative AI data centers like the Terawulf data center proposed for Cayuga Lake?

Actually, the god of the Bible, New Testament and Old, is an authoritarian jerk.
In the last book of the Bible, Jesus watches people being tortured with flames and crushes people until their blood forms a lake 200 miles wide.
The Bible gives plenty of material to those who want to hate.

When will Congressman Josh Riley stop ignoring the role of generative AI & cryptocurrency data centers in the rapid increase of our electric bills?

"Data centers, which are kind of ground zero of all of the angst about increasing costs, they should be, without question, required to bring their own power," John Quigley, Kleinman Center for Energy Policy
Why does Josh Riley never confront the role of data centers, but blame foreigners instead?

One thing we can do is hold accountable Democrats who have voted to deregulate cryptocurrency, like US Rep. Josh Riley of Ithaca.
We need to find reliable, honest, ethical Democratic primary challengers.
We need to teach Democratic politicians that cryptocurrency is toxic.

Josh Riley, once again, is not hitting his fundraising goals. Why???

Could it be the fact that Josh Riley keeps on betraying the progressive Democrats who worked their asses off to elect him last year?

Just a theory. Why don’t you run a poll on that, Josh?

Why does Congressman Josh Riley of Ithaca keep blaming foreigners for high utility bills but never ever talk about the role of corporate data centers
like the one Terawulf is building on
Cayuga Lake?

Is he trying to distract us with
xenophobia?

DONALD TRUMP &
evade accountability
by voting to
WEAKEN regulations

Cryptocurrency lobbyists are openly celebrating Congressman Josh Riley's submission to their lobbying demands.
Cryptocurrency = corruption = $1.2 billion in bribes to Donald Trump so far.

Cryptocurrency is the #1 tool of political corruption under Donald Trump… and Congressman Josh Riley has eagerly made himself a tool of cryptocurrency lobbyists, repeatedly voting to deregulate crypto just when we need more regulation.

A nagging little question in my mind about the plans for a #Terawulf data center on Cayuga Lake: If data centers are financially stable, why did Terawulf, a data center business, just require billions of dollars from Google to stay in business?
Data centers are a bubble.
Terawulf will pop.
