Rather pleased that the county I live in is the first in Virginia to ban data centers. A win for common sense and the environment

I don’t want peaceful politics after the 2026 midterms,nor after the 2028 presidential election! I expect the political criminals to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,and our constitutional laws to be strengthened for the future generations!

Stop calling it a climate problem. Call it what it is: organized greed. The planet isn’t dying. It’s being killed for profit. The killers have names. And boardrooms. #ClimateJustice #StopEcocide

Also, putting a stamp on it doesn't change it's designation. Per Snopes: The only situation where a completed ballot is not handled as First-Class Mail is when the voter opts to pay for a premium service like Priority Mail® service or Priority Mail Express® service. www.snopes.com/fact-check/u...

After this regime collapses, I would hope that every government department is independently audited and serious steps are taken to reign in the deficit, regardless of how austerity impacts the American people.

Check your Secretary of State’s website - they’ll have information for you. It seems like a lot of them are going to be letting you pick a ballot up in person and then mail it in after you fill it out.

There is a group of people that believe they are put out by immigrants. Immigrants have never done anything to infringe on them. These people have been told that they have been left out b/c of immigrants taking from them. It’s been drilled into them to make them hate & want them gone.

Canada fuels American growth. Canada supplies 99% of natural gas imports, 85% of electricity imports and 60% of crude oil imports. I don't think they want us to stop sending any of that energy. -PMCarney #TrumpTariffs

We are on the verge of a climatic upheaval greater than any of us can imagine. Global leaders and media aren't paying attention. They are focused on a series of self-inflicted crises that have left us dangerously vulnerable and totally unprepared. My latest. charlieangus.substack.com/p/what-keeps...

In 2026 as of July 30, there have been 37 new measles outbreaks with 2,371 confirmed cases across 44 states Make sure you and your children are up to date with measles vaccine. Babies living in or going to outbreak areas can receive dose 1 as early as 6 mo www.cdc.gov/measles/down...
Bar chart titled "Yearly measles cases" showing reported annual measles cases from 2000 through July 30, 2026. The chart includes tabs for "2000–Present" (selected) and "1985–Present." The y-axis ranges from 0 to 2,500 measles cases, and the x-axis shows years from 2000 to 2026. Most years from 2000 through 2024 have fewer than 500 reported cases, with notable increases in 2014 (about 670 cases) and 2019 (about 1,275 cases). Cases rise sharply in 2025 (2,289 cases) and remain high in 2026 (2,371 cases as of July 30), making 2026 the highest year shown.

I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.
