Oh fun, another iPhone 17-gate, though this one at a smaller scale: www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/...

This pretty much sums up me in fall in Seattle

Next year, a lot of folks are going to see their premiums go up $1,000 or more per month because of a Republican policy.

If you start having to pay $1,000 extra every month, what will you stop being able to afford?

This is what Democrats are fighting to stop.

We looked back on the "backlash" against American Eagle ads featuring Sydney Sweeney and her "great jeans." Right-wing media declared that liberals were outraged and thought the ads were racist -- even the White House joined in.

If you thought that story reeked, you'll want to see what we found.

T-Mobile's T-Satellite service now supports apps that have been optimized for satellite communications. With a surprise: Audio and video chats, first appearing in WhatsApp. Making a video call outside cell coverage is a leap from just texting a couple of months ago. www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/...

AT&T contacted me about how they’re using _ray tracing_ to improve cellular service. Yes, like the graphics tech in games and movies. Turns out to be a super interesting application: www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/...

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

I cannot emphasize enough that this administration shouldn’t get 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 from the Dems until they start obeying the law.

Not. One.

Optics matter: if you want people to turn out next election despite troops in the streets, then show them it matters.

Do your goddamn jobs and hold the line.

Well you don’t want to order the Wrong angle, do you?

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

this (from @danpfeiffer.bsky.social) is excellent. voters always blame the controlling party for shutdowns, and that's even when the guy in charge ISN'T historically unpopular.

Today’s essential reading (thread). This was more than just Hegseth trying to swing his dick in a room he doesn’t even deserve to be in.

Judging by their speeches, neither Trump nor Hegseth has paid the slightest attention to how actual wars are being fought in the actual world. The “war fighting” and “lethality” they plan is inside their own country and comes from conflicts inside their own minds.

YES!!!! New TRAILS AND WAYS has dropped!!!

And it sounds very trailsy and waysy in the best possible way.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

History will show that just about everything involved with the Russia investigation was accurate and only scratched the surface of how deep and involved the corruption and treason went.

It will be documented as one of the most successful and long lived intelligence operations in history.

In a stunning violation of OPSEC, we’ll be announcing to our adversaries when and where all of our top military leaders will be. Doesn’t seem Pete learned much from Signalgate.

His incompetence is staggering.

this is the kind of shit you should shut down the government for imo

Now pushing no Tylenol for kids. My two small kids recently spiked three fevers in two weeks (Covid, virus, virus). You want me to make them stay up all night sweating and keening rather than give them one safe chewable, drop their temp, and let them go to sleep? You are an actual monster.

Know who’s going to cash in on Trump’s farmer bailout?
