Major airports are refusing to air Kristi Noem’s propaganda video blaming Democrats for the shutdown, and there’s a reason: it violates the Hatch Act

You can’t use taxpayer resources for partisan attacks. Period.

Additionally, here's an engrossing, well researched PBS documentary worth watching.

Pretty amazing and horrifying how that time parallels this time.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

These "Republicans" should behave like current Republicans and say (lie) they are switching their vote, then, when the vote is taken, vote to release the files.

Chris Murphy: "Republicans are boycotting negotiations to reopen the govt bc they're desperate to raise premiums on people by 75% in order to finance their tax cut for the wealthy. The other reason House isn't in town? They're about to have enough votes to mandate the release of the Epstein files."

While the federal administration uses partisan tactics to silence voters and create a more opaque elections system, California is becoming more transparent and fair by the day. My Assembly Bill 808 continues to strengthen transparency and public trust in free and fair California (1/2)

Although the reality of what we're experiencing isn't funny, I find it easier to digest with today's events disseminated with humor.

How are our service industry sectors going to be viable without inexpensive access, or even no access to the chips needed to power the technology?

T's really creating a true trade imbalance now!

I kept thinking as I read your article of Yamamoto's purported quote, "Awakening the sleeping giant", certainly fits with what T has done provoking China with his tariffs and what appears to me, racism, except T has awakened a behemoth giant.

Colossal trouble for the USA must be T's intention.

Important piece by Prof. Kate Andrias. This is why treating SCOTUS as the only word on the Constitution gives away our power as citizens.

As I frequently say “we are founders and framers” of the next iteration of democracy in this country.

AI Bubble? More like MOAB: the Mother of All Bubbles. For the sunk costs of power generation, hardware, chips and software to pay off, AI needs to be generating $2 Trillion in annual revenue by 2030, more than the combined sales of major tech companies today.

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."
