It is not about blind faith; it is about resisting cruelty and those who want unlimited power. November 2026 is our line in the sand. You cannot afford to stay home. Vote blue like your rights depend on it, because they do. Your vote is your voice. #BlueWaveIn30Days

Bernie Moreno blocked a bill to make data centers pay their own way, then complained that Congress never does anything. My guy, you are the reason. That's setting the kitchen on fire and leaving a one-star review. #BlueWaveIn30Days www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/great-news...

Don't think Australia is immune to authoritarianism
Nobody wakes up to sudden authoritarianism. We relinquish ourselves to it by allowing our favoured government to get away with bending norms and rules. Over time, these bends become clean breaks.

Trump banned CNN, MS NOW and Politico. ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox News refused pool duty in solidarity. Trump's helipad ribbon-cutting went out with no usable audio. Courts have sided with the press in fights like this before and will likely do so again. But how much damage will he do along the way?

Been catching up on UNGA speeches by speakers from member countries both the politically, geographically and/or economically powerful & those less so. The sum of which was sobering to say the least. However, the encapsulating phrase that sprang to mind was 'too little and 50 years too late'.

The actual solution is that the US needs to fuck off out of the middle east yesterday, and charge Israel for the bill. The US broke it, they have neither the capability nor capacity to fix it. The longer it takes them to leave, the more people will die from energy insecurity and push costs higher.
