EPA is in an era of rollbacks/cuts, and plans to scrap greenhouse gas regs are maybe the biggest yet. The Trump admin still pledges clean air, water and land. Superfund is critical to that message — but questions swirl around its future. @tedgoldbergtv.bsky.social @njspotlightnews.org bit.ly/44TN6eF

I guess you could call it a soft launch.

DHS recently said you could fly without Real ID but that you'd be subjected to extra security. People I interviewed at Newark Airport today either (a) had a passport or (b) had a Real ID, so it wasn't an issue

"I'll Skype you later" is one of those sentences that future generations won't understand without an old geezer like me explaining.

Also, going from a brand name to officially dead in under a decade is impressive
