#Texas and #Georgia races show voters are finally sick of #MAGA corruption
#JonOssoff and #JamesTalarico are polling well with a #CleanGovernment message

"What’s getting attention, however, is not bland, consultant-approved talk about the price of groceries. Ossoff has aggressively targeted Trump on the one issue pundits had long assumed voters no longer care about: corruption. He calls the president a 'crook,' describes his cronies as the #MarALargoMafia and bashes the White House as 'the most corrupt administration of all time.' "

#OpenAI flew influencers to a #NatureResort to fix its image. The internet called it #greenwashing.

"The videos were soft-focus and lighthearted. The comments were not. Across TikTok, Reddit, X and Instagram, people called the trip 'dystopian' and accused OpenAI of greenwashing. One commenter told TechCrunch the issue was timing: '#TheWorldIsOnFire. It’s not a great time to brag about your $5,000-a-night suite.' "
