A viral arrest, a drunken brawl and an overdose: the last days of a notorious Border Patrol agent
We obtained hours of body-camera video that give the fullest — and perhaps last — glimpse of Agent Isaiah Hodgson’s mindset when he became a flashpoint in the fight over immigration raids.

Remember when every left-leaning blogger was posting about how Trump had chickened out of sending troops to Chicago? Feels like it was only weeks ago

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.
Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

From what I see as a coin collector, these tariff charges are obviously good, because they will spur Americans to manufacture their own ancient and medieval coins, instead relying on overseas countries to find the Roman and Saxon coin hordes.

A woman who was 20 weeks pregnant fed her toddler son raw milk. He contracted Campylobacter and then passed the infection to her; she progressed to sepsis, and had a miscarriage.
She is suing the business that sells the raw milk, saying she didn’t know the risk.
Don’t feed your kids raw milk.

Democrats' principled refusal to fight right-wingers without both hands tied behind their backs, for one thing. The near certainty that SCOTUS will suddenly rediscover the concept of dangerous executive overreach with a Dem in office, for another
What's stopping a future Dem president from sanctioning law firms and getting the same treatment?
Sorry, Gibson Dunn. We're pulling your security clearances because you helped sue the EPA once.

We all had a good chuckle at this, didn't we? But it worked.
It might give you a sense of the White House's own fears that the letters were dated yesterday, but they waited until Saturday morning -- when the markets are closed -- to actually release them.

Can confirm this email is authentic — and about nothing in it is true.
Social Security income is still taxed. This bill does nothing to change that.
It’s willful disinformation on the part of SSA. It’s a lie.

Hi, I think a lot of us received e-mails from SSA saying that social security will no longer be taxed - and that somehow there is "enhanced deductions" (how much enhancement can you make to 0?) for those over 65. What part, if any, of this is true? Thank you!

Since the NBA season ended last night, here's my self indulgent take on where Sports Bluesky is atm. The TLDR is that crappy Resistance accounts are working like antibodies to flush casual sports ppl off this platform and the devs should address this if they actually want sports to take off here.

I like that HBO is now promising to use AI to spoil the best parts of their shows via autoplaying video previews www.theverge.com/news/688313/...
Max will show autoplaying video previews picked by AI
You can turn the audio or video in the previews off, thankfully.
