How to make the beef crisis even worse.
Trump: The cattle people, they've done very very poorly. And now they're doing well, but the price is up. So what I can see happening is we're going to take some beef because I have to get the price down. 

A lot of this is Biden's fault

Meiselas: We’re 24 days into the government shutdown, and Trump left the country — the first president in U.S. history to leave the country during a shutdown.

This, while food lines are being seen throughout the United States. This is Trump’s America. Food lines like we saw in COVID are back.

I could not be prouder that my law firm is currently litigating 60 voting, election and redistricting cases in 30 states. Even as large law firms bow down, we continue to fight for democracy every single day.

Great to do a Q&A today at the 2nd-ever screening of new film OUR LAND at Folkestone Film Festival, an extraordinarily beautiful film about access to land - which follows both @righttoroam.bsky.social (particularly the badass Nadia Shaikh) as well as several landowners. In cinemas next spring!

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

I don’t know if Kamala Harris plans to run in 2028, but this here is a master class in how to handle a loaded question.

“I never listen to polls. If I listened to polls, I would never have run for my first office or my second office. And I certainly wouldn’t be sitting here in this interview.” 🔥

Early voting in the NYC mayoral election begins TODAY.

If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani — the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people.

Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.

GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “They’re talking about getting rid of the Voting Rights Act — that may likely happen in months… they’re rewriting history… ANTI-WOKE IS ANTI-BLACK… we’re not doing enough. We’re not calling this out.”

It really is incredible how much money Trump’s offspring have made off his presidency.

But I’m sure James Comer and House Oversight is looking into all of it exhaustively.

Meiselas: California Gov. Gavin Newsom just announced he’s deploying the National Guard — to help Californians hurt by Trump’s government shutdown. While Trump uses the Guard to attack Americans, Newsom is sending them to deliver food and support families in need.

I follow @nessasays.bsky.social here on Bluesky and on TikTok. This is important to consider. Definitely something doesn’t add up with the numbers being discussed for the cost of the gaudy tasteless and illegal ballroom. (No permits no plans made public for our house)

The Merlin Bird ID app kept insisting for days there was a bushtit around, and today finally saw the first one ever in the habitat! Great feeling to get a positive visual confirmation.
