A Texas Democratic operative said the quiet part out loud — on video. Sky McAdams, organizing manager for Texas Majority PAC, described a $25 stipend as a workaround the group is using to boost support for Democrats like U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico, among others. “We are paying people $25 to attend a one-hour Zoom class to learn why voting is important and why the Republicans are causing all of these bad things,” McAdams said in undercover video obtained by Townhall. “So it’s like a roundabout way of paying people for their votes, essentially.” Townhall posted the clip Wednesday morning.

Summary: Scientists have developed a solar-powered desalination system that turns seawater into fresh water while removing nearly all of the leftover salt as a solid instead of producing harmful brine.
