If this reminds you of an extremely famous book you might have read in high school… yes.

Nixon’s crimes look like harmless high school pranks compared to the now-daily unprecedented illegal & unconstitutional crimes being committed daily by this president & his staff

Hell of a passage here:

“Speaking by telephone from his private plane en route to San Francisco, he lamented that he has to pay for hundreds of off-duty law enforcement officers… and said that San Francisco needed to ‘re-fund’ the police.

The city never actually ‘defunded’ its police force.”

SCOOP: The Bureau of Land Management says the largest solar project in Nevada — the Esmeralda 7 mega-farm — has been canceled

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency

genuinely think they are feeding him AI videos

There are real people on the end of these grants. Rust belt autoworkers. Great Plains farmers and roughnecks. Coal communities looking to a new economic future.

It’s genuinely heartbreaking. They don’t have do this — the money is already obligated — but I guess they enjoy destroying lives.

That's a Draymond Green screen

Man that’s a game changing missed call on a ridiculously obvious penalty. Really bad!

that reminded me so much of the James Harrison play from the Super Bowl right down to Lloyd just freestyling

The AFC South woke up and chose violence

Broadview police chief accuses ICE agents of making false 911 calls www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

Adults and children alike were pulled from their Chicago apartments, crying and screaming, during a large overnight raid that has left tenants and neighbors shaken. https://cnn.it/4pPCXIt

As a UNC grad and fan, heads must roll at the highest levels for this Belichick trainwreck, which was entirely predictable.

You’re a flagship public university. Your dollars can change students’ lives, boost the state’s economy, invest in nation-leading women’s sports. The bar has GOT to be higher.

"If we believe in democratic order, let us put science and knowledge back at the heart of things, let us put scientific authority back at the heart of things, let us put culture, education and learning back at the heart of things..."

This by @katmabu.bsky.social is the best speech I've heard yet by any politician about what ICE/Trump/Noem is doing and it's not close.

Trump just cancelled $8B of energy projects to pressure Democrats to let him jack up health care costs.

And he didn't just cancel projects in Dem districts; he canceled them in R districts too. The difference is that Republicans are letting him use their constituents as pawns.

Stark juxtaposition between this Republican government’s gleeful snatching of funding away from Harris-voting states, and the extent to which the prior Dem gov’t cheered reinvestment in Trump-voting states.

The idea of the union is completely under siege right now.

Pope Leo XIV denounced people who deny climate change today, arguing that they are contributing to the destruction of God's creation.

Two senior Republican appropriators agree it doesn't make any sense for Democrats to agree to a government funding deal unless Trump actually adheres to the deal.

The Democratic alternative CR had language that would address this, but the White House came out strongly against.

Every day, contemporary tech execs remind us that they see "social" media as a one-way attention mining operation, not a place for human expression and dialogue
