A tribe in Arizona planned to connect 600 homes to electricity. Then the funding was cut

The Hopi Tribe received a multimillion-dollar federal grant to install solar panels and battery storage systems for hundreds of homes. But the Trump administration has canceled the funding.

Imagine how they'll feel if Trump pardons her.

And how will MAGA feel about that? Or the non-MAGA Trump voters? It's hard to imagine that there's much of a constituency for pardoning the world's most notorious sex-trafficker.

Phang: How are these Epstein victims supposed to feel about closure when you see Blanche meeting with Maxwell and then giving her a minimum-security camp move?

And now, conversations allegedly that Trump is going to have with the DOJ about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. It is an abomination

Kristallnacht, "the night of broken glass." His deputy Joseph Goebbels orchestrated the violence across Germany. On the night of November 9, 1938, rampaging mobs attacked Jews in the street, in their homes, and at their places of work and worship.

Why does Trump think he's going to get away with jacking up health premiums on families by 75% in order to fund a giant tax cut for his billionaire pals?

Because he thinks his campaign to repress free speech will keep us quiet.

But he's wrong. We are fighting back.

I'm signing two landmark bills to strengthen California’s fight against hate and antisemitism in schools — creating new accountability systems and requiring stronger responses.

As antisemitism and bigotry rise nationwide, we’re taking action to confront hate in all its forms.

If this was a no, it would be really easy to say no.

Bondi’s ad hominem attack on Whitehouse is WAY more of an answer than she realizes.

NOTABLE -- Pam Bondi refuses to answer direct questions about if the FBI has incriminating photos of Trump with half-naked young women, but instead deflects from them by attacking Sen. Whitehouse

Fuck this.

This is nothing but red meat for Trump’s base. A federal law that *Trump* signed into law guarantees backpay to furloughed workers. There’s no disputing this.

More Perfect Union @moreperfectunion.bsky.social · 1d

A new White House memo says that furloughed federal workers aren't entitled to back pay.

This is clearly against the law, which guarantees furloughed federal employees back pay for the duration of a government shutdown.

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.

Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

Reporter: 139 immigration judges have been fired, taken an early offer, or been involuntarily transferred. One of those immigration judges who was dismissed says she had been terminated without knowing why. She said, 'I believe the Trump administration can't stand people who play by the rules.'

Good morning Baron.
Good news, the Supreme Court "rejected" Epstein's co-pedophile Ghislaine Maxwell's case.

McLaughlin: "Pritzker is saying we're using racial profiling to go after people. That's absolutely not true. We are targeting criminals who have perpetrated very horrendous violence against the people of Chicago. And yet he continues to lie and say we're zip-tying children. These are fake images."
