In our latest investigation with The Guardian, we reveal that a Microsoft-linked data center in New Jersey likely emitted around 140 tons of smog-forming NOx before regulators stepped in.

Olive trees: The Bible is such a concoction of conflicting values that it can be used to justify virtually anything. Good people choose the good, and bad ones the vile. The Bible doesn't civilize — it must be civilized.

Nice war-profiteering center, that purple, near-vertical line! To sustain it, we'll just pass the latest #NDAA with another massive increase in the war economy budget!
-Patriot interceptors delivered to the US Army over 225 months (Sep 2001–May 2020): 1,795
-Patriot interceptors fired in the Iran War’s first 7 months (Feb 28–Sep 30, 2026): ~1,800
ALT US fired 19 years’ worth of Patriot interceptors in 7 months. One line shows the cumulative number of PAC-3/MSE interceptors delivered to the US Army from September 1, 2001 through September 30, 2026. The other shows the estimated number of PAC-3/MSE interceptors fired by the US Army in the Iran War, from February 28 through September 30, 2026. The estimated 1,800 Patriot interceptors fired in the Iran War exceeds the 1,795 delivered to the US Army from September 2001 through May 2020.
