🇺🇦🤩 Ukraine has developed an automatic air defense turret "Sky Sentinel" with AI. The main task is the effective destruction of Shahed-136 type UAVs, but it is capable of detecting and shooting down both much smaller targets and high-speed cruise missiles in all cases almost autonomously.

Heartbroken by the passing of Congressman Charles B. Rangel—a giant among us, a master legislator, a founding member of the CBC, and a fearless voice for justice. His legacy opened doors for generations. I’m honored to walk the path he paved.

Take a few minutes for this one—because you might need FEMA in the near future, and you need to know what’s currently going on. Or not going on. Thank you, @repjasmine.bsky.social for telling it straight, sounding the alarm, and sharing how we can help.

Ugh AT&T charged me over 180 bucks for the embassy calls to Argentina last month and 40 bucks of that was Federal tax and fees. I think I just got tariffed for phone calls.

Nothing feels quite as dirty as Trump tariffing me on the death of a family member. But the bastard’s tariffs got me on the phone calls to the US Embassy. AT&T felt bad about it and credited my account 50 bucks. But I still feel icky.

What’s interesting/ignorant about this is that we *do do the big things here - the AI and the weapons systems. And we don’t do T shirts and textiles at scale. Once again, he has no idea how any of this works.

Trump's tariffs: ✔️are causing price hikes on everyday necessities: groceries, clothing, & electronics. ✔️ have caused retail sales to slow down. April retail sales slowed due to Trump's tariffs, a bad sign for the economy. Don’t get distracted by shiny objects.

There. Are. No. Republican. Fiscal. Conservatives. Ron Johnson has been in the Senate since 2011. He voted for the 2017 TCJA. He wants more massive tax cuts now. He doesn't care about debt or deficits. He wants to <cut spending>. Stop pretending GOP deficit hawks exist. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

So campus speech. Much viewpoint diversity. Very marketplace of ideas. We’re always just one election away from this happening in Wisconsin as well. Every accusation from the far right authoritarian party is a confession.

This bespoke exception for the Fed is one of the most brazenly made-up things I've ever seen the Supreme Court do (which is saying something). There is no principled basis to distinguish the Fed from other independent agencies. The conservative justices just don't want Trump to crash the market!

A U.S.-born citizen who was wrestled into the dirt, handcuffed and detained in a vehicle as part of an immigration raid had a REAL ID on him that was dismissed as fake, the man's cousin said Friday.

Under the bill passed by the House, those in the US earning LESS than $17,000 will LOSE $1,000 a year, the top 0.1 per cent of taxpayers will gain nearly $400,000 a year. How sick is that? And 8.6 million people will lose their Medicaid coverage. This is like a death sentence for many.

This guy is like one of 4 Americans who actually went and got their REAL ID and immediately they said it was a fake. Just so everyone knows when they toss your ass in a truck it won't matter what passport or identification you have they'll throw it in the street and you're gone

ACTIONS MEET CONSEQUENCES… North Carolina voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024—now he’s denying the state’s FEMA request. Again. Reminder: Senator Ted Budd (R-NC) and Rep. Dan Bishop (R-NC) voted against FEMA funding on September 25, 2024.

On one hand the economy is shrinking, prices are going up due to tariffs, scientific research funding slashed, millions to be kicked off of Medicare & Medicaid, foreign students being barred from our top universities, USA’s credit rating dropped and NWS, NASA & FEMA workers fired. On the other hand

Read this thread. They're dropping cases and then arresting people to try to rush them out of the country. They're covering their faces so we don't know who they are. We have no idea what's happening to their victims.

🚨ICE arrests continued today at immigration court nationwide, with ICE officers handcuffing people in the hallways after ICE prosecutors moved to dismiss cases. Today we got more confirmation that even where the judges are NOT dismissing cases, ICE is still detaining people in some cases.

MUST WATCH: While Americans bury their children from mass shootings, House Republicans just tried to SNEAK in a provision to end the 100-year registration rule for GUN SILENCERS. Rep. Joe Neguse caught them red-handed. They wanted this quiet. We won’t be.
