Trump brought the NVIDIA CEO on his trip to China to lobby Xi Jinping to buy advanced AI chips, even though it would create a U.S. national security threat. It turns out Trump also bought millions in NVIDIA's stock. The President's corruption is a national security disaster.

This is an incredible exchange. Elias calling out corporations and members of Congress who proudly and seriously protected voting rights in 2006 have gone silent and he is calling it out. Eddie Glaude drives it home in epic fashion. Spread this far and wide.

A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks — while only creating one permanent job. One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution. Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?

Wrote about how Hegseth’s effort to resegregate the upper ranks of the US military ties into the larger MAGA project to restore hierarchies of race and gender: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
The result has been something like an inverse caricature of Republican complaints about diversity, equity, and inclusion, a system in which the incompetent rise not because of their abilities but because of their sycophancy. Authoritarian regimes behave as the Trump administration is behaving—optimizing for political loyalty rather than competence. Merit, in short, has little to do with it.

Hegseth is a prime example. Deeply unqualified for the job and convinced that brutality provides an easy path to victory, he has led the United States to the verge of a strategic defeat with a weaker adversary in Iran. The current cease-fire leaves Iran with a more hard-line government than before, one in total control of a shipping lane crucial to the world economy. The Islamic Republic is arguably in a stronger position today than it was when the war started, and probably in a stronger position than it was before Trump, in his first term, scrapped the Obama-era nuclear deal.

On Sunday, Trump posted on his social network a refrain that he and his toadies seem to think is insightful: “If you import The Third World, you become The Third World!” This archaic social Darwinism is the ideological mortar of the Trump project. It fuses Hegseth’s disdain for diversity in the military’s senior leadership and valorization of brutality with the administration’s attack on birthright citizenship and its deployment of federal agents to occupy American cities. It is a worldview that would assume an easy victory against a country like Iran, especially with America’s new, “unwoke” military. Bigotry isn’t just inefficient, as the U.S. military discovered in the 1940s. It also makes you stupid.

Stats in alt are interesting Why do we drill baby drill? To help Saudis pay for this! NGHC - NEOM Green Hydrogen Company share.google/yG8BnXrrBSHL...
Saudi Arabia just activated the largest single solar installation ever built — 300 square kilometers of Neom desert covered with 9 million panels generating clean electricity for 5 million homes from nothing but desert sunshine.

The Neom Solar Mega-Complex Phase 2 covers a continuous 300-square-kilometer expanse of flat Tabuk Province desert with single-axis tracking bifacial panels that follow the sun from dawn to dusk, capturing direct overhead radiation on their upper face and reflected desert ground radiation on their lower face simultaneously. Located at 1,400 meters elevation where the atmosphere is thinner and solar radiation intensity 12 percent higher than sea level, the installation generates 4,200 megawatts at peak capacity — more than four nuclear reactors combined from a single desert site. Saudi Arabia's interior desert receives 3,200 hours of annual sunshine with virtually zero cloud cover, giving the installation a capacity factor of 32 percent — exceptionally high for any solar installation anywhere on Earth.

The project required 28,000 workers over three years and 47 million tons of structural steel, with panels imported from Saudi Arabia's own new solar manufacturing plants rather than from overseas suppliers for the first time. Transmission infrastructure carries generated electricity 380 kilometers to Riyadh and Jeddah through a dedicated 500-kilovolt direct current line losing only 2.8 percent of energy over that distance.

Saudi Arabia plans three additional mega-complexes of comparable scale by 2030, targeting 50 percent renewable electricity nationally from desert solar alone.

The No Kings protests had over 8 million protestors. Zero deaths. 6 people shot with a BB gun by a Trump supporter. The last time MAGAts had a protest, 2000 people showed up, 138 police injured, 15 were hospitalized, some with severe injuries and 5 people died as a result. We are not the same.
