A U.S. citizen who was arrested for filming an ICE raid at Home Depot is suing the federal government for $1 million— and I hope he gets every penny.

THIS‼️ When being transported, Garcia heard agents boasting about how many ‘bodies’ they had gotten that day and saw them celebrate with high fives.

400 MWh of sodium-ion batteries.

Great to see this potentially cheaper alternative to lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries taking off!

Still a bit more expensive ($160/kWh for the entire system) but that will change.

Reminder that today Reform UK are defending 2 seats in by-elections.

Benfieldside and Newark West.

Both caused by their councillors standing down after the local elections just days after being elected.

Taxpayers’ money wasted today to the tune of circa £50k.

The Trump regime, again, halted weapons that Ukraine was scheduled to receive to protect civilians and infrastructure, including PAC3 Patriots, 155mm artillery rounds, GMLRS, Stinger, AIM-7, and Hellfire missiles.

This is a strategy to help Russia with its terror campaign. #StandWithUkraine

Q: “Would the Fed have cut more by now if it weren’t for the tariffs?”

Jerome Powell: “I think that’s right. In effect, we went on hold when we saw the size of the tariffs, and essentially all inflation forecasts for the United States went up materially as a consequence of the tariffs.”
