Summary

Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez condemned Donald Trump and Elon Musk at a packed Arizona rally, accusing them of harming working-class Americans and promoting oligarchy.

Sanders denounced corporate CEOs as “major criminals” exploiting workers, while Ocasio-Cortez called for stronger Democratic leadership.

Rallygoers urged Ocasio-Cortez to challenge Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer after he supported a Republican funding bill.

The rally, part of Sanders' “Stop Oligarchy” tour, follows criticism of the Democratic Party’s weak response to Trump’s agenda and features further events in Colorado and Arizona.

Summary

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned that the Trump is deliberately overwhelming the public with chaotic news to induce passivity.

Citing Steve Bannon’s "flood the zone" strategy and historian Michiko Kakutani’s comparison of Trump to Mussolini and Hitler, she argued that Trump uses the internet to spread disinformation, much like past dictators used film and radio.

Urging people to stay engaged, she emphasized that collective resistance can slow harmful policies and that small acts of opposition make a difference.

I have been working on a hobby program that calculates the times of moonrise and moonset froma given location. for the formulas i have been using Jean Meeus' Astronomical Algorithms book. So far I have successful been able to calculate the ascension and declination for any given date. Currently I am working on the rising setting and transit (chapter 15). My functions work with his example of Venus, but trying with the moon I do not get accurate results. Using the interpolation method in the book does not seem to add accuracy. Am I missing something? Are there specific considerations for the moon that are not included in the book? I would greatly appreciate any advice given!

I have had this plant for several years. Within the past couple months I noticed a few leaves yellowing, but lately it has accelerated greatly to where about half have fallen. I water regularly and keep the soil moist. The pot is large and does have drainage holes. I stopped watering about 2 weeks ago to let the soil dry out but that hasnt seemed to help. This year I have noticed earthworms and centipedes in the soil if I dig around.
