No financial, structural or architectural collapse, until it had the audacity to refuse his advances. He stacked the board, lost legal challenges, pushed ahead anyway... it’s not about architecture, it’s control. #SnarkyOrwell #KennedyCenter #NotTheTrumpKennedyCenter #NoMeansNo #BulldozerDiplomacy

64 years ago, on the 27th of September 1962, Rachel Carson's book Silent Spring was published. It handled the environmental harm caused by the pesticide DDT and the disinformation spread by the chemical industry. Carson managed to sway public opinion and even policy. #otd #history 🗃️

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Fox News hosts spend their day telling their audience that Democrats are communists and communists are evil people, then in the evening they all got dressed up to attend a state dinner honoring a communist.

50 percent tariffs for our beloved neighbor and historic ally, Canada. A red carpet and a military flyover for Communist China’s leader. Donald Trump is a sick man and a danger to America.

On Rupert Murdoch TV, nothing about Iran and soaring gas and diesel prices, but it's 24/7 chatter about a Turkish-American social media figure named Hasan Piker who Fox claims represents the Democratic party. The problem: he's not a Democrat, and 83% of Democrats have no idea who he is.

GONE: A button to “Chip in to Support Trump Endorsed Byron Donalds” at the top of the homepage. GONE: A yellow banner that said “ENDORSED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP!” GONE: A prominent section quoting Trump’s 2025 endorsement that said “RUN, BYRON, RUN!” Gift link: www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

Byron Donalds strips Trump references from his campaign website
The Republican gubernatorial candidate stopped emphasizing his endorsement from Donald Trump as the presidents’ approval ratings plummet.
