Not just California. Katie Porter may have altered the course of the United States & arguably the world itself California has the 4th largest GDP on Earth & just about every corporate entity that has outsized influence on the daily, even hourly, lives of billions of people across the world is based there Her decision to not drop may have generational & unfathomable impact that will be studied in history classes one day
Katie Porter screwed over California and now we’re going to have Mr. Chevron McDonalds running it. Great work Katie.

It sounds hyperbolic, but I truly don’t think it is. We are in a moment in time where the United States is peering off a precipice, and every single opportunity to take a step back from that is precious. Every day those opportunities are fewer and further apart. A possible Steyer win would’ve meant some sort of change from status quo and some sort of hope for that one step back from the edge.

"Gaza Strip is now experiencing one of the largest collective psychological disasters in modern history.... the effects of the war are no longer limited to the dead and wounded but have extended to the psychological structure of society as a whole, especially children."

“They say that Spain is alone. They said the same when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed. We are not alone. We are the first. Those defending the indefensible will be the ones left alone.” — Sánchez, March 9
MADRID, March 30 (Reuters) - Spain has closed its airspace to U.S. planes involved in attacks on Iran, a step beyond its ‌previous denial of use of jointly-operated military bases, Defence Minister Margarita Robles said on Monday.

I am not shocked or sad that, yet again, big dumb money and special interest completely fails to have any understanding or pulse on the gaming community despite decades of examples of this happening over, and over, and over

Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth: “Terrorist regimes target civilians, we do not.” According to UNICEF the U.S. has already hit 20 schools, 10 hospitals, and killed over 1,300 civilians including 300 children. So by Hegseth’s own logic the U.S. is a terrorist regime.

The Lancet recently published a study which found that sanctions from the US have caused 38 million deaths since 1970. The average death toll ranges from 400,000 to over 1 million per year.

KOSA will end all free speech on the internet as we know it. Elites are forcing this law through Congress. The only way to stop it is if YOU act. Here: progressivevictory.win/initi…

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why? If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment. Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

In 2019, the State of New Mexico launched an investigation of Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch, then the Trump 1 Justice Department demanded the state stop and turn it over to the feds. The probe then fizzled. Awesome reporting from @ReisThebault nytimes.com/2026/03/01/us/je… via @NYTimes

The USA has been in conflicts and war for ~93% of its existence.

Bombing Iran in the middle of negotiations, while starving Cuba, while genociding Palestinians, while threatening to invade Greenland… the US and Israel are the single greatest threat to humanity and it’s not even close. We are all forced to live in the nightmare they create.

The numbers keep getting progressively worse for Drumpf. Here are his updated state-by-state net-approval ratings. They're bigly bad. Make sure to spread them far and wide. He'd hate that.

Atmospheric scientist here. Let me tell you what was actually "slashed" today. Slashed: The Endangerment Finding — a 200-page scientific review upheld by the Supreme Court, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, and reaffirmed by the National Academies of Sciences in 2025. Slashed: The legal authority to regulate carbon from cars, power plants, and factories. All of it. Gone in one afternoon. Now here's what you're "saving": Yesterday Trump ordered the Pentagon — the largest energy consumer on Earth — to buy coal electricity. Coal costs $69–$169/MWh. Wind costs $27–$53/MWh. Solar costs $38–$78/MWh. 99% of U.S. coal plants cost more to run than replacing them with brand-new solar or wind. That's your tax dollars buying the most expensive electricity on the market. By executive order. While the Peabody Energy CEO stood in the room. And the human cost of what you're "saving"? 460,000 American deaths linked to coal pollution in 20 years. Coal PM2.5 is 2.1x deadlier than other air pollution. (Henneman et al., Science, 2023) All to protect an industry that employs 44,000 people total. Clean energy employs 3.5 million.
Promises Made, Promises Kept: Slashing regulations and saving Americans trillions. 🇺🇸

Begging you guys to take up and realize this isn’t a Discord or Roblox or YouTube or Meta problem, this is Democrats and Republicans working together to enact mass AI surveillance and censor speech online under the guise of “child safety.”
FINALLY. CAN WE NOW MOVE ON FROM DISCORD??? and can you guys recommend alternatives that are actually encompassing similar features? no, not teamspeak. something that is as easy to recommend to a friend but not as poorly executed
