Gov Gavin Newsom is giving a hell of an update from LA today on the immigration raids. He's excoriating Trump in the Q&A. If you're not in CA, I hope you listen to every word because this world is coming to your state.

Thinking about the tut-tutting Democratic politicians who spent their two years in power warning that Supreme Court expansion was too radical an idea to even think about taking seriously. You absolute fucking rubes. You gigantic, credulous losers. I hope you are ashamed of yourselves today.

openai is going to blow past this net loss in the next year or two and it doesn’t deliver mail to every single person in the country
NEW: The U.S. Postal Service posted a net loss of $3.3 billion in this fiscal year’s second quarter mainly due to “significant challenges out of our control,” including workers’ compensation costs, Luke Grossmann, USPS chief financial officer, said at the open session of the governing board meeting

They’ll never accept it, but everyone who cast a vote for Donald Trump did real, generations-long damage to the United States and the west in exchange for essentially nothing of value.

2/ This week you will read many confused economists and political pundits who won’t understand how the tariffs make economic sense.
That’s because they don’t. They aren’t designed as economic policy. The tariffs are simply a new, super dangerous political tool.

I have zero proof of this but I think anyone with the means is probably making plans to leave the country if need be. The mad king thing + the Ukraine thing today feels like a tipping point for some. The seeming inability of any of our institutions or checks and balances to stop him isn't helping.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

In the federal govt, as elsewhere, senior staff is more white and male than junior staff. Crushing "DEI" is a response to perceived risk to White dominance, not an actual threat.

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.
