The Loan Programs Office (LPO) is one of the most quietly effective tools the federal government has. It is the center of our industrial policy providing loans that banks won't give for energy innovation. It funds real projects. Battery factories. Nuclear reactors. Geothermal energy. Car factories.

THIS IS WILD‼️

Florida got $67M from a Medicaid fraud settlement. Instead of using it for actual health care, Casey DeSantis funneled $10M to a “charity” she controls. That “charity” passed it to anti-abortion and anti-marijuana groups—who then helped fund GOP campaigns. Both measures lost!

📌I'm sorry but the 80-year-old Dick Durbin saying he will retire AT THE END OF NEXT YEAR has to be the most out-of-touch Democratic thing I have heard this week.

📌Chances are God will retire you first, sport. Step down NOW if you want to do something truly meaningful for the party.

-Thanks

Dear white people,
David Hogg is not your son. Stop projecting your parental fantasies onto him. He's also not a child. Stop defaulting to infantalizing white men.
You all refuse to hold adult ass white men responsible for their actions and then wanna act surprised when they lash out.

“Cowardice is contagious — so is courage.”

“That’s what we’ve been seeing month after month... Starting with some people demonstrating courage, and then other people looking around and saying I can do that, too. It’s in my power. I’m not just a victim of world events.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social

Sitting with the data that --

Black people are 3.23x as likely as white people to be killed during a police encounter

Black women are 3x more likely to die of a pregnancy or postpartum-related cause than white women.

Tripled violence, tripled harms.

the burning hatred i feel for the app-based replacements for mechanical interfaces we're being forced to use must pale in comparison to the rage felt by people who are actually trained in human-automation psychology

The Heritage Foundation's coup, Project 2025 plan, is still online as of this date (static.project2025.org/2025_Mandate...). It is 900 pages.

Printed it out on both sides; it will take one ream of paper, about 4 ink cartridges, and a 4" 3-ring binder to hold it. DO IT. Read it, understand it.

We called the Right “sick” because they celebrate cruelty and don’t care if our kids die from curable diseases, whereas they call us “sick“ because we want due process and equal rights.
