Talarico wants data centers to pay for their own grid upgrades, recycle their water, create real jobs, & get a community's consent before moving in. Paxton took nearly $500,000 from the industry. Texans want a senator who fights for them. That's why we will have a #BlueWaveIn40Days

Could new bus shelter roofs help New Yorkers stay cool in extreme heat? We're testing a few in Brownsville to find out: a green roof covered with native plants, and reflective roofs covered with low-cost, heat-resilient film.

A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Wyden released a sweeping Senate report alleging several of the largest banks of having “been willing to turn a blind eye” to Epstein’s financial activity.

In 60 days or so, we’ll face an election we can’t successfully win without a landslide. Any low-percentage win and they’ll do what we know they already know exactly how to do, and more. We’ve all seen it happen. So we need that landslide victory. We all must vote.

Soccer player wearing fedora and with a green apple floating in front of his face, mimicking the Magritte painting "The Son of Man." The soccer player is wearing a jersey with a pattern of pink and blue stripes with half-visible spheres.

San Francisco has little snippets of poetry here and there. Here's a plate in the walkway along the Embarcadero with words by Diane Wakoski.

California shakes its pedals/poppies
are lying against the hills,
orange in their careless motion, like goldfish swimming in and out
of an aquarium castle.

One thing this regime has taught us is that a president can do whatever the fuck they want if no one stops him. All that bullshit about "Don't worry, he can't do that because constitution" is being proven to be the lie it is. We are allowing our country to be dismantled by a mad man and his cult.
