GIFT LINK: A president who has taken a backhoe to the White House and threatened to strip Kennedy Center down to its steel skeleton cannot and should not be entrusted with another irreplaceable national treasure — Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. www.startribune.com/burcum-the-h...
Burcum: The House betrayed the BWCA. The Senate is next.
Congress could hand over the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness to the Trump administration, which has already shown its contempt for science and conservation.

Sorry to be Radical Left but I don't think we should put people who haven't committed a crime, and aren't even accused of committing a crime, into any sort of "Detention"

What it was like to be a bush at Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance
The bushes on the field during the halftime show became a meme after the internet found out they were actually human performers.

if you’re wondering what “unauthorized gray market” means, it means we literally don’t know what goes into those drugs other than the very limited information that companies disclose
Really wild to see this termed as a "rival" situation because Novo is a pharma company that actually developed and manufactures the drug in question for highly regulated distribution to the public and Hims & Hers is a uhhhh telehealth company selling unauthorized gray market versions of Novo's drug

Welcome to Norm Nation, Chris.
As news coverage ebbs but reports from the streets indicate Operation Metro Surge is still surging, I’m surprised there’s not some kind of official report/press conference every day, like we used to get during Covid. Just the best update they have on what happened today? I think I am being naive.

The Bad Bunny show was so good, but it is very funny to imagine the alternate universe that these freaks wanted, where a stadium of tens of thousands of people had to watch a 70 year old man lip sync raps about underage women, then ran a 10 minute in memorium reel for a podcaster

I think it's interesting to compare energy infrastructure investment to transportation in the US. The former we mostly leave to private or subnational actors to figure out (except some grants and tax credits), while the latter is almost exclusively financed by feds and states. 1/x

Folks, I too am cheered by the data, but: one of the great challenges we still face is teaching and showing people how “deporting people with criminal records” has been Not What They Think, since Clinton signed IIRIRA in 1996. You can get deported for a minor theft, like stealing a gift card.
Striking from Marquette poll:
Majorities of non-college grads and even 50% of rural Americans disapprove of ICE handling of enforcement. Majorities of both oppose deporting longtime residents with jobs/no criminal records.
That's data given to me. 2/

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me these people are my enemy
In a city long defined by conflict, Somalia ’s capital of Mogadishu now echoes with the crash of pins at the country’s first modern bowling alley.
It’s the latest sign of revival in the once-thriving Indian Ocean port shaped by 35 years of civil war and militant bombings.

It’s the weekend everyone, so you know what that means. Time to drink two polar seltzers and do a thread on the power transformer shortage. Without transformers, we don’t get a clean energy transition. And as energysky knows, there’s been a shortage due to covid, supply chain, & labor constraints 🔌🔋
