I’m not a physicist but I play one on my podcast, The New Quantum Era. I talk with researchers working on quantum computing, which is just as mind-blowing as you might think. He/him https://www.newquantumera.com/

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

How a State Domestic Terrorism Law Has Boosted the White House’s Texas ‘Antifa’ Crackdown This article is part of TPM’s ongoing “Creating the Enemy Within” project,...

As the Trump administration pushes to bring anti-Trump activists up on terrorism charges, it’s finding that Texas has already cleared a path. State prosecutors are using a 2023 anti-terrorism law to investigate and charge what the Trump administration has deemed an “Antifa cell.”

Trump Administration Using Gross Video Game Footage To Cheerlead Its War Efforts We should all know by now that this iteration of the Trump administration absolutely loves using pop culture imagery, including that of video games, to help message its horrible policies. Want to gloat about ICE terrorizing American cities and generally pissing everyone off when they're not too busy perforating innocents? Let's use images from Pokémon and Halo! Want to celebrate the destruction of American health thanks to RFK Jr.

Shockingly, the Trump regime and the toadying GOP are throwing the MAGA women under the bus. It won’t save any of them. American Nuremberg hearings are still coming for them all.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Legacy media is failing democracy. Rather than just complain, I did something about. Six years ago I started Democracy Docket from scratch. Now it has more than 400,000 subscribers. But to help protect democracy, it needs to grow and scale. Subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
