When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points.

Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race.

Would be a shame if people found out.
Elon Musk is flying under the radar in the Texas Senate race. Republicans want to keep it that way.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media.

Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

"Signs of Fascism" originated in my town. (Sequim, WA) I filmed it. I remember getting a call, "hey your video got 5,000 views." By the end of the day it had 60K. Over 100K in a few days from just one platform. Then my DM blew up! Everyone wanted to replicate the signs. Nice to see the signs today.

NEW: A Vatican theological commission has defined the destruction of nature as a sin against God in a text approved by Pope Leo XIV.

It comes the same month MAGA commentators lambasted the U.S.-born pontiff for asking Catholics to pray for the 2.1 billion people without safe drinking water

For too long, Canadians and Europeans been naive & complacent to entrust our democratic spaces to social networks controlled by American CEOs & Chinese corporations that have little stake in protecting democry. So glad to finally see a Canadian leader adressing #digitalimperialism.
As part of his broader push to make Canada less dependent on U.S. infrastructure & attract large-scale investment, today Mark Carney announced Ottawa support for a nationwide "sovereign internet" or a "sovereign broadband backbone."

But what exactly does he mean by a sovereign internet?
