I cannot express how dangerous DOJ's actions are to free and fair elections in 2026 and 2028. Access to and the misuse of this data is almost certain to be the central fight for the 2026 midterms. Yet, too few are paying attention and treating this as seriously as they should.

This is the desert of the real. The Wachowskis called it. But like Bernie says, no one wants this. Folks are organizing in amazing ways.
Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans.
Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.
Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

On the centenary of Thatcher's birth, there have been predictable calls for a memorial to her memory. But Britain's 2300 food banks serve that purpose already.

This is good, hopefully next time he cuts him off during the rant about why his ratings are low. There is no informational value in having JD Vance on your show.
STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

A bittersweet series about what we have lost, but also what we could regain if we lived in a country that supported basic research again.
Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Hey DOJ, today would be a great day to honor Charlie Kirk by releasing the Epstein Files.
KIRK: "The DOJ should immediately move to unseal all the Epstein documents in the SDNY. I think every file should be released to the public."
