The world's richest man has joined a growing chorus of right-wing voices attacking Wikipedia as part of an intensifying campaign against free and open access information. Why do they hate it so much?

Thanks to @edzitron for the great chat about @FTC’s work taking on corporate lawbreaking in digital markets and beyond—from illegal subscription traps and platform monopolies to fraudulent AI hype and unchecked commercial surveillance.
Here's the latest ep of my @iHeartRadio/@coolzonemedia show Better Offline. I'm joined by FTC Chair Lina Khan, who talked to me about competition in the tech industry, artificial intelligence, and how to stay hopeful for the future.

⚡️ Zelenskyy: Putin is a modern-day Hitler.
💬 "He [Putin] wants to destroy everything Ukraine which in Ukraine connects with Ukraine and Ukrainians. That's why he will go to the end with this idea. Horrible idea."

BREAKING: Georgian President @Zourabichvili_S addresses the nation and states the illegitimate parliament will not be able to elect a new president, therefore, her mandate continues. She remains at the forefront of this political process.
"I am immensely proud of you, and Georgia is proud of you.
A national consensus has been achieved: no one will strip us of our independence, take us back to Russia, or rob Georgia of its European future. This consensus is strengthening, and it is our power.
Tomorrow, society and political parties will come together. We will jointly manage the political dimension of the process that you are leading in the streets. Together, we will accomplish our mission, secure new elections, and ensure Georgia reclaims its national course, independence, and a free path to progress." President stated.

Elders are also protesting, despite the violence of the Moscow backed government and the risk of mass arrests. The younger protestors are shielding them from the water cannons and rubber bullets. All of Georgia remains defiant. #GeorgiaProtests

With Project 2025 architect Russell Vought helming the Trump White House’s budget office, Medicare and Social Security could take massive damage—despite Trump’s campaign pledge not to harm either program.
Your reminder that Project 2025 was always the MAGA Agenda.
Mat Polutta retweeted
When making a MAGA cabinet, it's very important to strike a careful balance between billionaires, sex criminals, Russian assets, anti-vaxxers, and just plain unpleasant people.

This Thanksgiving, Elon Musk is grateful for the chance to take more of your money for himself & his friends.
Musk wants to “delete” the CFPB — a tiny agency that saves Americans BILLIONS of dollars by stopping corporate abuses like fraud, junk fees & absurd interest rates.

This is why Trump, Musk, and every other collaborator are begging Ukraine to accept a deal with a buffer zone that just so happens to exist over these regions, valued at $10 trillion. The goal is the same, to screw Ukraine from its natural resources and plunder it among Kremlin friendly oligarchs.
The primary goal of Russia's invasion of Ukraine is to steal their resources and meet its broader strategy of market monopolization and price manipulation. Ukraine holds over 110 billion tons of proven mineral reserves across 100+ resource types. It is valued between $15 - $26 trillion.
Ukraine is rich in critical materials for energy transition: lithium(500,000 tons), nickel, cobalt, and non-ferrous metals—essential for batteries and renewable tech. Ukraine holds the largest titanium reserves in Europe, accounting for 7 percent of the world’s reserves.
The regions containing these mineral deposits align with areas targeted or already occupied by Russian forces, including Crimea, Luhansk, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia regions. Significant deposits are also located in Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Poltava, and Kryvyi Rih. #opcanary

Timmy was literally paid 400 000 USD per month by a Russian state-media to post anti-Ukraine content, and suddenly he has a problem when someone he disagrees with might be paid, too?

✊ Georgians fighting to determine their own future instead of having it dictated by Moscow and oligarchs. I’m sure the Kremlin apologists would tell them to go peacefully into oppression like they do with Ukraine.
OMG look at this force of the water cannon!!! And somehow they have endless supplies too. But also look at people going back towards the police in brief episodes that they run out of water! #GeorgiaProtests The cannons are mixed with pepper spray too!!!

In today’s #vatniksoup, I’ll introduce a Romanian politician and conspiracy theorist, Călin Georgescu (@calin_georgescu). He’s best-known for his pro-Kremlin and conspiratorial views, running for president of Romania, and doing it by only campaigning on TikTok.

Putin's problems continue mounting as Russians are about to find out that Georgians aren't groveling slaves like the Russians they're used to dealing with.
A free people unaccustomed to the serf/master relationships that Russians find so natural.
Things kicking off in Tbilisi

Today, more details have been revealed about the new missile that Russia used to strike Dnipro. These details will be shared with international journalists and media because the world must know the truth. It must understand that the only party that does not want peace is Russia. That is why Russia is constantly escalating.
I am grateful to all partners who have already responded to this latest act of Russian madness. But words alone are not enough—action is required. In response, Ukraine’s Minister of Defense, under my directive, is already meeting with partners to secure advanced air defense systems—systems capable of protecting lives against these new threats.
When a country starts using other nations not only as targets for terror but also as testing grounds for its new missiles through acts of terror, it is undoubtedly an international crime. Russia’s actions mock the calls for restraint by states like China, leaders of the Global South, and others. Each time these voices call for peace, Moscow responds with yet another escalation.
The world must respond firmly and decisively so that Putin fears expanding this war and faces real consequences for his actions. True peace can only be achieved through strength—there is no other way.

The United States has announced a new support package worth $275 million. It includes drones, ammunition for HIMARS and artillery, and—critically—essential mines to stop Russian assaults. This will significantly strengthen our troops on the front lines.
This marks the 70th defense package from the United States. Ukraine deeply values the bipartisan support from America and the decision of President Biden.
We are grateful for standing with us.

So amazing that this is finally here.
We can use the emulator to develop and test code against the service in isolation, free from cloud interference.
