"A massive data facility uses automation and, once built, rarely employs more than a few dozen people. Data centers really only benefit the Big Tech emperors, to whom, according to a growing American consensus, we are no longer willing to sacrifice our towns." newrepublic.com/article/2126...
It Took a While, but Americans May Have Found Something We All Hate
The astonishing grassroots protests against data centers give us something new: a mass mobilization focused squarely on protecting American hometowns from oligarchic exploitation.

Happiest of Juneteenths to all those who celebrate (like me).
Juneteenth marks the celebration of America's second independence day.
Like the people in this photo—Texans celebrating Juneteenth in 1900—we know that progress hasn't made our union perfect. But we can recommit to reaching toward that more perfect union together.
Happy Juneteenth.

Separation of church and state protects every member of our community. Pushing one religion into the curriculum threatens that — & it's deeply troubling.

Which Bible texts are in Texas’ proposed student reading list?
The chosen readings, to be voted on soon by the State Board of Education, draw heavily from Christian perspectives.

The insistence of MAGA to literally make things up is fascinating and frightening. They’re living in an alternate reality. It's why it’s that much more important we effectively activate and organize to stop this fascism.

WTF LAPD????
The LAPD showed up with 20+ officers and even sent a HELICOPTER for a noise complaint in an apartment complex in Canoga Park.
And they shot and killed Jameson. A golden doodle. One of the sweetest, most gentle breeds alive. He wasn't dangerous. He wasn't a threat.

NEW LAW IN OKLAHOMA
Data Centers Can't Pass Their Energy Costs to Consumers
The law requires large-load customers adding 75 megawatts or more of demand to sign long-term agreements covering infrastructure costs tied to their projects, rather than spreading those costs across the general rate base.

I'm shocked but not surprised to hear that, at a time when families are worried about making ends meet, President Trump is building a giant wrestling cage in front of the partially-demolished White House to celebrate his birthday. What a perfect summary of this Administration.

Trump's family made upwards of $4 billion 💸 since he became president last year.
Trump's son's got huge government contracts!
The DOJ gave DumbOld Trump & his entire billionaire family complete immunity from tax responsibility in perpetuity.
But they want you to think poor folks are the problem.

Thanks to Trump & the Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill Act, starting June 1, CalFresh recipients aged 18 and 64 without a disability will have to meet a work/volunteer requirement & can only get 3 months of support every 36 months.
The cruelty is staggering!
