Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick today: “Data centers don’t use water. This is propaganda by our adversaries.” Howard Lutnick previously: “These AI things, they suck water, and they need water.” Apparently his adversary is the replay button.

⚠️ Leaked audio reveals multiple GOP candidates have suggested sending law enforcement to the polls in November. Trump himself has refused to rule out sending troops to the polls. But federal law almost always forbids federal troops and armed agents from polling sites: demdock.com/3T0Wfik

And why should the federal government care? Because their racist overlord expects them to... It is a state matter, and is only a problem if the state deems it so. They need to tell orange Mussolini to go F himself.

NEW: According to Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), Trump's Thursday night speech was less about foreign interference and more about the president's own intentions to interfere with upcoming elections. "I think what we just saw was the opening shot of [Trump] trying to undermine Americans' confidence.”

Trump’s DOJ has charged 15 anti-ICE protesters in Minnesota. The charges are based on his national security memo that categorized “anti-capitalism,” “anti-Americanism,” and “extremism on migration” as domestic terrorism. This is what tyranny looks like.
