Former lawmaker a thrice-failed statewide candidate Rick Becker is upset that he gets too much criticism, but it’s more like he’s a child saying “look at me,” only to turn around and claim that people are obsessed with him when the attention he gets isn’t what he wants. #northdakota #politics

There’s a belief among a populist faction that has captured control of the North Dakota Republican party that Republican candidates are winning elections because they’re Republicans. That’s wrong. They’re winning because they’re good candidates and leaders who happen to be Republican.
America is one of the most prosperous countries in the world, but we can’t keep our government functioning or air travel moving. #northdakota #politics #tsa
When it comes to reacting to court decisions, many people focus on results rather than the method says ND Supreme Court Justice Jerod Tufte. He says that when he talks to the public, he reminds them that the job of the courts is to apply the law without regard. #northdakota #courts #politics
South Dakota’s antipathy to pipelines and other infrastructure projects is giving #NorthDakota an edge says Reed Johnson, a Republican candidate for the state House in District 17. “North Dakota and South Dakota at this point couldn’t be more different,” he says.
Watch the full episode: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZyi... “Be careful” is the message from ND Petroleum Council president Ron Ness. “Free lunches are free lunches until we can’t fund schools,” he argues, referencing the recent special session debate over universal school meals.
When @ndsuofficial.bsky.social had a $10 million budget shortfall, there weren’t private donors coming out of the woodwork to keep the academic programs whole. When the football team wants to move to a bigger conference, the donations roll in. That’s an indictment of our priorities.
The committee behind a ballot measure to have the state cover the cost of school meals has had amazing success gathering signatures. With passage at the ballot box likely, North Dakota OMB Director Joe Morrissette says they’re planning on building that cost into the budget. #northdakota #politics
Mark Friese, recently appointed to the North Dakota Supreme Court, says elected judges are accountable to the public, but that might also mean they’re unwilling to issue unpopular rulings. #northdakota #politics
Forget the artificial intelligence evidence that was used by the Fargo Police Department to put Angela Lipps in jail for months, eye witness testimony from humans isn’t all that reliable. Sometimes a person can’t even recognize their own wife. #northdakota #fargo #artificialintelligence

Billionaires sit at the very top of the establishment hierarchy. The system is designed for the billionaire class to reap what workers sow. Nigel Farage sells fake patriotism to protect the billionaire class. #r4today #BBCBreakfast #GMB #Skynews

As they continue to try and have us honorably celebrate those who fight for liberation and subjugation, freedom and oppression, democracy and tyranny, hate and love; those of moral consciousness refuse the false moral equivalence and are not confused. Rest In Peace and Power #assatashakur 💪🏾

Does anyone else's cat do this? Merlin suckles a blanket while making biscuits and purring. It's cute, but also makes me sad - like he was taken away from his mother too soon? (We adopted him from the streets as an adult cat, so no idea if this is true). Cat expertise is welcomed!
Nigel Farage took £585,000 from GB News. His MPs declared another £770,000. Four billionaires have spent £170M building the media machine putting Reform in your living room every night. Today the Guardian exposed them and what they expect in return. This is a political project funded from the top.
“There has been a huge amount of progress since 2015 in terms of the amount of solar that has been installed, and the amount of finance that has been flowing that way.” says Dr Nina Seega, Director of the Centre for Sustainable Finance at the CISL on LBC News.

SOUTHCOM blew up another boat in the Pacific, but this time the video is zoomed out so far you can't make out anything, other than the boat was moving. Previous to this one, it was in color, and the boat wasn't moving at all. Those are usually fishermen that they kill. #SOUTHCOM #WarCrime 1/2
