163 years ago in Mankato, 38 Dakota men were hung in the largest mass execution in our nation’s history.
I’m grateful to the riders who continue to remind us the importance of fighting for accountability and healing for the Dakota people.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.
Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.
Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

The thing about trump is that he tells you everything, and people turn a deaf ear to it. Trump confessed that Mar-a-Lago was a pipeline to Jeffrey Epstein & his island.

Folks keep expecting trump, MAGAs, and the GOP to do the right thing and say the right things. They won't. Why? Because a bad tree only produces bad fruit. And they are bad trees.

My mom messaged me last night a video on facebook that was full of disinformation on the new Merck rabies vaccine for cats and dogs. So antivaxxers don't just want childhood diseases to come back, they are coming for your pets too.

So Perplexity is no longer simply the fact checking AI that didn't want to be your friend. Now it sounds like its your buddy like ChatGPT - I'm not mad at it. I find it fascinating how AI morphs - but disconcerting that data centers are placed in vulnerable communities.
