ICE is zip-tying kids and going after your hardworking friends and neighbors – not violent criminals. Just look at the data.

I have spoken to many dozens of people for this series and this was an almost universal concern. We will be digging into it in detail. While people are worried NYC will be next they are also getting ready.
I think many NYers are anxiously bracing for a surge of ICE/DHS/CBP activity once Mamdani is in office. It’s been heartening to know that so much grassroots organizing & work has already been happening in the city. And that it’s only growing in support & services, while drawing on the past.

Big if true.
This is a big deal. Essentially a reversal of the US export control policy on advanced chips. Possibly decisive in the AI race. Compute is our main advantage — China has more power, engineers, and the entire edge layer — so by giving this up we increase the odds the world runs on Chinese AI.

When dentists in Emporia donated to Donald Trump, this is what they were voting for and we have to respect that
Two months after President Donald Trump signed an executive order restricting H-1B visas, soaring costs are roiling rural health care facilities that have long struggled to find staff.
Rural America relies on foreign doctors. Trump’s visa fee shuts them out.
The Trump administration’s demand for companies to pay a $100,000 fee to hire an immigrant worker using an H1B visa has created turmoil among rural health providers.

This is a Pokemon and you can't tell me otherwise
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

For everyone watching “Heated Rivalry”
The one thing hockey will always have over every other sport is that its iconic trophy is the only one that ever lives up to its own hype
It’s always a good chuckle when people start talking about the iconic WC trophy they all dream about winning then they bring out that dinky little claw machine-ass thing

I think it’s a great indication for the country that multiple female members of both houses are finishing their public service to spend more time with their polycules.
LESLEY STAHL: You contributed to the toxic culture. You were out there pounding, insulting people
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: You've contributed to it as well
STAHL: I want you to respond to what you have done in terms of insulting people
MTG: I'd like for you to respond to that

Straight men won’t even finish anymore, because woke
Dahl at one point sent a cable back to his handlers in London saying that he was exhausted from fucking all these American women and they sent one back that basically said "lie back and think of England."
one of the funniest things is that there's at least a dash of Roald Dahl, friend of Fleming's, wartime pilot, racist, and when young six foot six of Norwegian hunk who spent his time in Washington seducing American wives for the English cause.
