Bernie Sandersname
You’re talking about a small number of people who are at the head of the Democratic Party. You’re talking about the donor class,
Bernie Sandersname
Like every other podcaster in the world, he says dumb things that people should reject,
Yemisi Egbewoledemocratic strategist and former Biden White House chief of staff
Dems want a majority in the Senate. El-Sayed apologized for his comments about the Temple Isreal attack and hasn’t campaigned with Hasan. No one is as caught up in this oligarchy business as Sanders is. Stevens lost. She endorsed Abdul. It’s now his job to win those voters,

Who pays for US power boom? Blue, red states offer starkly different ways to lower utility bills amid AI surge

As the AI boom drives an unprecedented hunt for electricity, two states are taking sharply different approaches to assuage fears that Big Tech’s massive energy needs will raise Americans’ utility bills

When you tell Americans why we have to win the AI race, look at what China did with the Wuhan flu and how they tried to lie about that,
Indiana’s approach is definitely the better of the two,
The solutions to data centers are not complicated issues to solve,
Every data center should be built in conjunction with the necessary power-generating facility to power it and give back to the grid,

Mel Gibson apologizes for mocking ASL interpreter, blames 'spontaneous thoughtless idiocy'

Gibson, 70, waved at attendees at the Fan Expo Canada panel Saturday in Toronto, before appearing to jeer behind an American Sign Language (ASL) translator on stage at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre

Mel Gibsonamerican actor, director, producer and screenwriter (born 1956)
Sometimes when you get pushed out on a stage in a spotlight your mind is all over the place, and sometimes spontaneous thoughtless idiocy is displayed,
Mel Gibsonamerican actor, director, producer and screenwriter (born 1956)
From Braveheart to Mad Max: A Q&A with Mel Gibson."
Mel Gibsonamerican actor, director, producer and screenwriter (born 1956)
I got the tweet at the same time as all of you and was just as surprised,
Donald Trumppresident
It is my honor to announce Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, to be Special Ambassadors to a great but very troubled place, Hollywood, California,
I’ve seen tons of comedians do that. People are way too caught up in their feelings."
Always disappointing to see my language mocked,
These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears, and I will get done what they suggest. It will again be, like The United States of America itself, The Golden Age of Hollywood!"

Ms Rachel confronted on accusing Israel of 'genocide' in park interaction with podcaster

I wasn’t planning on changing her mind,
Avi Lichtscheinpodcaster
The timing struck me because it was such a vivid example of the point I had been trying to make to Rachel. You may personally consider yourself a Zionist and may not intend your rhetoric to contribute to hostility toward Jews or Zionists, but when you have an enormous platform, you have to think seriously about what happens downstream from the rhetoric you amplify,
Avi Lichtscheinpodcaster
I pushed back on this, and I said, 'That's absurd,'
I don’t think Rachel hates Jews, and I'm sure her advocacy comes from a place of genuine compassion for children. But when you have an audience as enormous as hers, you have a responsibility to understand the consequences of the claims you’re amplifying. That’s what I wanted her to hear."

Obama-appointed judge blasts Trump admin’s ‘cynical’ reading of SCOTUS win, upholds key roadblock

Judge Indira Talwani accused the Trump administration Monday of advancing a "cynical interpretation" of its Supreme Court victory after she refused to lift a block she imposed on new USPS mail-in ballot requirements ahead of the midterms, as states approach deadlines to begin sending ballots out

Kris Mayesarizona Attorney General
Over my dead body is that rule going to go into effect. We are going to fight this tooth and nail in the courts."
Gene Hamilton (lawyer)intervention, former White House deputy counsel
Why wouldn't you take steps like getting a list of eligible voters, like asking the USPS to use standard mail security measures that they use for other things,
Indira Talwanijudge
A final [USPS] rule has now [been] issued and contrary to defendants’ cynical interpretation, the Supreme Court has not endorsed the view that any challenge to the final rule is now too late,
Lauren Biswhite House spokeswoman
These are commonsense measures that protect the security of mail-in ballots and ensure only Americans are electing American leaders. This administration will continue to lawfully enact the agenda President Trump was elected on — which includes the safety and security of our elections,
Indira Talwanijudge
The (my) [temporary restraining order] limits the mandatory nature of the final rule, not voluntary participation by states that choose to do so,
Gene Hamilton (lawyer)intervention, former White House deputy counsel
Let’s see what the departments and agencies actually do. Well, let's see what they say they're going to do,
We have to get through the arbitrage of lower court proceedings, and I'm sure there's going to be a lot more fighting to come,

The "American Idol" judge was overcome with emotion as she honored the late country music icon during her debut performance Saturday at the Tanglewood Music Center in Lenox, Mass

I feel like she was just out there with the brightest smile on her face up until the very last day... and that's something that I feel like we can all learn from. She is gone, but she's not forgotten."
Carrie Underwoodamerican singer and actor
It was such a shock, I feel like just to the whole world, like could feel the ripples, like time just stood still, and it was just like... what
Carrie Underwoodamerican singer and actor
She’s not gone. I know exactly where she is,
Whether it be the hundreds of millions of books donated through her invaluable Imagination Library or funding research that helped create a lifesaving vaccine used around the world, Dolly’s unconditional love for all people was the guiding force for her lasting impact."

Kelly Osbourne says she 'wasn't well' while facing harsh scrutiny, body-shaming after dad Ozzy's death

Kelly Osbourne is opening up about the toll public scrutiny has taken on her following the death of her father, Ozzy Osbourne

Kelly Osbournebritish singer and actress
You've got to fix the head before you can fix the body,
This is a special kind of cruelty in harming someone who is clearly going through something, kicking me while I'm down, doubting my pain, spreading my struggles as gossip, and turning your back when I need support and love most,
Kelly Osbournebritish singer and actress
I didn't navigate it — I wasn't well,
Literally can't believe how disgusting some human beings truly are,... Looks like a dead body… she's tooooo thin and fragile.… Looks like she's going to see her dad soon."
How can you navigate something so cruel when you're so sick?"
None of it proves strength; it only reveals a profound absence of compassion and character,
I'm getting to know myself in a whole new way, but it's a lot more healthy, I can tell you that,

‘Backwards and poor’: Trump issues dire warning to communities blocking critical technology

Donald Trumppresident
The only reason that communities throughout the U.S.A. should not want Data Centers is if they want to end up being backwards and poor,
If they want to be successful and rich, with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place, let Data Reign,
Donald Trumppresident
China could not be happier with this anti Data Center movement,

Martina Bestagnoitalian basketball player
I played against really big players such as Brittney Griner (6'9", 219 pounds), Isabelle Yacoubou (6'3", 229 pounds), and they're big. They're probably bigger,

El-Sayed tries to make peace with Jewish Democrats but draws line at dumping Hasan Piker

We’re in the state of Michigan. If you want to make this race about a streamer in California, I just think you’re missing the boat,
To anybody who feels like my comments may have been hurtful, I’m really sorry. That was not my intention. We condemned that terrorist attack. We condemned it outright,
My commitment to Jewish safety is the same as my commitment to the safety of my own kids. We have a responsibility to take on antisemitism in all of its forms, wherever we see it."
Hasan Pikertwitch streamer
If Jews in America keep putting this idea out there that they are singularly invested in Israel, eventually someone is going to come around and take action, not against the state of Israel, mind you, but against American Jews,
