"30-year-old conservative lawyer and activist who is Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel, which deals with federal employee whistleblower complaints and discrimination" cancelled his colleague's hotel room so she would be forced to stay with him.

In late July, Paul Ingrassia, the White House liaison for the Department of Homeland Security, arrived at a Ritz-Carlton in Orlando with a lower-ranking female colleague and others from their department. When the group reached the front desk, the woman learned she didn’t have a hotel room.

Ingrassia then informed her that she would be staying with him, according to five administration officials familiar with the episode. Eventually the woman discovered that Ingrassia had arranged ahead of time to have her hotel room canceled so she would have to stay with him, three of those officials said.

Old car going unused most of the time is better for the environment than a brand new tesla to sit in traffic for a 2 mile trip.

Many sea stars begin life as young fairy-like creature (called a brachiolaria) that float through the open ocean. Eventually, a small star forms within them (here in yellow). The fairy-like brachiolaria sinks under the star’s weight, and the star pops out!

🇺🇸 Governador da Califórnia publica vídeo ironizando Donald Trump ao som de nova música de Taylor Swift.

Gavin Newsom usou a música para sugerir que a obsessão do presidente por atacá-lo é, na verdade, uma forma de admiração. Ele tem usado as redes para se viabilizar para a eleição de 2028.
