It’s not just towns and cities that suffer from these data centers using up all the water. It’s farms that rely on irrigation that won’t be able to maintain their crops during extremely hot and dry periods like what happened this year across much of most of the continents.

After Trump gutted the IRS workforce — including the unit tasked with auditing billionaires — the agency's annual audit revenue plunged by 35%. Trump's attacks on the IRS were never about "efficiency." They were about making it easier for the wealthy and powerful to skirt what they owe.

When women show confidence, set boundaries, or speak boldly they’re often called crazy, emotional, or delusional. Yet when men do the same things, they’re called strong, passionate, and determined. It isn’t the behavior that makes people uncomfortable ~ it’s the woman doing it. #SheShed #Women

Steve Hilton is hoping we don’t know the difference between a tax hike and an inflation adjustment. California didn’t “just raise the gas tax.” The 2.2 cent increase was the annual inflation adjustment required under SB 1, a law passed in 2017.
