As Measles cases hit a 35 year high, as a senseless war rages on with no exit plan, as gas climbs to record highs, and the Epstein files remain secret, the U.S. Senate is holding a hearing today to yell at Dr. Fauci and again push horse dewormer on the American public.
Ossoff: "Each day his allies are fewer & even they no longer deny his corruption, the obscene self-dealing while he plunges nation deeper into reckless war while he rakes in billions & builds himself ballroom & prepares again to attack elections. Let's be clear, one man attempted fraud in GA: Trump"
Iran continues to manufacture and hide drones that cost a few thousand dollars each. We are launching missiles that cost millions each. This is not sustainable even though Republicans are willing to put us more in debt to try. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Aaron RuparBRENNAN: CBS is reporting the US cannot sustain the rate at which it has expended precision munitions, that there's a shortage of interceptors MIKE WALTZ: I wish they would also talk about the massive degradation of Iranian munitions
The Correspondents Dinner was frustrating and sad. It honored fine work by celebrated journalists. Which got lost. I felt NORMALIZATION - in formal attire, in ALL CAPS - a microcosm of the biggest threat to Democracy we've ever faced; as the Founding Fathers feared; the normalization of a madman.
Under Trump: -Household electricity costs are up 18% -Ground beef prices are up 22% -Gas prices are up 40% -ACA out-of-pocket premiums are up 58% -Inflation is at a three-year high "New Golden Age" for who?

In the 1960's, when the USA led the world w/ blue-chip companies in every field, the average CEO-to-worker pay ratio for major corps was 20-to-1. Now, CEO's are paid about 300 times as much as the typical worker. Those CEO's don't work any harder nor are they more deserving.
Republicans have gotta be screaming for Trump to step down tonight. They have to know their parachute is unrecoverable and it's time to cut away. Following this treacherous monster down this road doesn't lead to anywhere good.
Ossoff: "Here's what's going to happen tonight: the world's most famous sore loser will deliver a prime-time presidential sour grapes address to pursue his 6-year-old grievances about the 2020 election, while his war in the Middle East spirals out of control & the cost of living continues to rise.."
If they want to build a data center, they should have to buy the worst land possible for the highest price and then be forced to create a way to power all of that independently and without harming the environment I mean, they are supposed to be geniuses Figure it out
