ICE shot and murdered Lorenzo Salgado Araujo (52). He spent 35 years as an honest, tax paying neighbor with 3 kids, all US citizens. He worked hard to get his citizenship. And ICE killed him before he could, then confirmed he was not even their intended target.

What an absolute ICON! If you haven't watched the Data Center panel held in Tucker County, WV on Monday, check it out on Mountain State Spotlight's page on Instagram or Facebook. You all need to hear the commentary from Amy Margolies.

Come on y'all. Let's sign these letters and tell the Public Service Commission we're done footing the bill for these corporations to brag about record profits.
Right now, FirstEnergy wants approval for a new gas plant in West Virginia that would cost at least 2.48 billion dollars to prepare for a #datacenter and they want Mon Power and Potomac Edison customers to cover the cost. Help us fight this before the PSC hearing July 15th! It only takes a minute.

When a legislator sees an excerpt of their email I didn't tag them in where I use their words literally and ask for opinions on those words and their response was it was a "gross mischaracterization" of their words I have to wonder... did they not read the email back before hitting send or...?

NEW: We filed a motion to stop the U.S. Department of Justice from accessing West Virginia voters' personal data.

This is the 25th state, plus DC, where we've taken action to protect voters' privacy from the Trump administration.

That's an insult to the idiots out there.
Oh ffs. Witkoff apparently went on TV today and said that Russia told him they're not helping Iran and we can trust the Russians and take them at their word.

We have idiots in charge.

By erasing the construct of international law, Putin and Netanyahu win the war. Many who claim to oppose them will cheer their own demise, handing over this world to criminals and democracy to the incinerator.

Please consider helping Palestinians right now. As Iran and the US and Israel all go to war, Palestinians are caught in the crossfires. Maher is in the West Bank. Most of his family is still stuck in Gaza. Everything helps keep them fed, sheltered and medicated. #Iran #israel-uswar #Palestine #gaza

Look at this smug criminal piece of shit lying his corrupt ass off, Netanyahu belongs in prison along with the rest of the Epstein network.

It’s not official until the regime denies it, Epstein worked for Israel. Netanyahu is a criminal.

COMMENTARY: We all know McCuskey picks and chooses when he wants to support West Virginians. Do you remember his office joining other states’ lawsuits to defend programs that were cut last year, like AmeriCorps? Me neither. Because he didn’t, writes Quenton King.

West Virginia Attorney General JB McCuskey has particularly taken an interest in attacking environmental or climate laws.

One of the most crucial steps to removing the Epstein network is to cut off all funding and intelligence sharing with Israel. It sounds like a big task but the future of our collective democracies depends on our ability to route out traitors, spies, and Trojan horses. Israel must go.
