Bloomberg reports that officials directly involved in an internal Pentagon investigation found that Peter Thiel’s Palantir Maven Smart System played a significant role in the February 28 U.S. strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh Elementary School in Minab, Iran.

Dr. Fauci is a hero. He really is. He helped guide America thru a mass death event. Millions more could have died but they did not, thanks to him. Everyone over 70 owes him a debt. It is disgusting that we live in a country that not only dishonors him but actively smears his good name.

We all know this still stinks to high heaven. Gov. Andy Beshear says he still hasn’t received an official update from Sen. Mitch McConnell. “I’ve had no official response. Nothing sent to our office, no letter, no email.”

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others

After rigorous iteration between our layman writers and academic volunteers to ensure that we've represented (and condensed) the science faithfully, we present these synthesized key takeaways from our latest Kentucky 2026 preliminary analysis report for the public.
2026 Kentucky Primary Election Republican Analysis Report High-Level Summary
The Election Truth Alliance has serious concerns regarding the accuracy of the vote count in the Kentucky primary election between Rep. Thomas Massie and Ed Gallrein. 

There appear to be non-human, algorithmic trends in the data that, as a whole, systematically benefit challenger Gallrein.

Indicators of manipulation detected at the county-level appear to cancel each other out when examined at the district level, enabling aggregate results to appear “normal” while obscuring these county-level anomalies.   

Four key fraud signatures were detected in analyses of county-level results using standard statistical methods, and remain present after controlling for demographics.

Proof is not the same as evidence. These findings are evidence, not proof, of electoral manipulation. Rigorous chains of custody and a full hand recount/audit of paper ballots are recommended to verify the vote.

Corporations spend more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting. That’s $1.5 billion they could have spent on higher wages, better benefits, and improving workplace safety. Remember: if they weren’t so scared of worker power, they wouldn’t fight so hard against unions.

Ohio’s state sales tax exemption for data centers cost $1.6 BILLION in 2025 — 11x more than its original estimate. That’s $1.6 billion that could have gone to public schools and healthcare instead of Big Tech CEOs’ pockets. Is it any wonder communities are organizing against data centers?
