This story is another BIG problem for the Trump admin; in Abrego Garcia's criminal case in Tennessee, evidence shows the DOJ seriously mislead the judge about the extent to which Deputy AG Blanche and his office were involved in filing the case, bolstering the case for dismissal.
Judge Crenshaw wants to make public his 12/3 ruling discussing the key role Dep AG Todd Blanche’s office played in deciding to prosecute Abrego Garcia. But Crenshaw is apparently giving govt 'til 12/30 to appeal his rulings rejecting govt's atty-client & other privilege claims ...

I loathe fast fashion with the passion of a thousand burning suns. I hate how it’s poisoning the environment and that it’s so ubiquitous and impossible to avoid at virtually every retailer

NY’s new law requires companies to disclose when algorithms set prices. Though it doesn’t stop surveillance pricing, its real power may be giving researchers and watchdogs new ways to investigate algorithmic harms, argues Stephanie T. Nguyen, Fmr. Chief Technologist at the Federal Trade Commission.

Notice Mamdani charmed Trump on live TV without backing down on any stances. He didn't water himself down, he didn't even take back calling Trump a fascist. Moderates would say butter him up, or try to appear more right-wing. Voters can see through that—and evidently so does he!

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?
