We're having transparency problems with more than just electricity costs. Creative financing vehicles keep us in the dark about who will pay debts from the data center boom if large-scale AI revenues don't emerge. Big Tech is ensuring it won't be the one paying. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/15/t...

when you read this it is very clear that Wiles thinks she is flexing the administration's muscle. relatedly, it is also very clear that the White House is completely delusional about its standing with the public. they are high on their own supply.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.

His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."

He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.

The hero of Bondi: Ahmed el Ahmed, a 43 year old fruit shop owner from Sutherland. He grabbed the gun off one of the terrorists shooting at Jews during a Hanukkah celebration.

Ahmed was then shot in the leg and shoulder by another terrorist. He’s being treated in the hospital and expected to be OK.

The 25th anniversary of Bush v Gore is today. The conspiracy mongering & corruption of the GOP has been brewing for a long time.

Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh were all on Bush's legal team, where they pushed unfounded legal theories. SC justices were already enmeshed in voter fraud myths.
Here's Sandra Day O'Connor endorsing News Max levels of voter fraud conspiracies in the 2000 election.

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

Judge Breyer blocks Trump from deploying the CA National Guard, returning control to Gavin Newsom. He also quotes Marty Lederman in his determination that "regular forces" means the military. The Supreme Court will rule on that definition soon. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/judge-dism...
Judge Dismantles Trump's Legal Argument for Deploying the National Guard
The government says 10 U.S.C. § 12406 gives the president the unreviewable, plenary power to deploy the National Guard. Judge Breyer says no. The Supreme Court will soon decide the same question.

If your doctor decided you needed an MRI (indicating concern about something serious) and you claim that you didn't ask why or what part of your body he wanted to look at, you are:

trump is the president in the sense that he holds the office but he very clearly isn't the president in the sense that he has basically relieved himself of its duties
Trump’s echo chamber:

Very little U.S travel

No rallies or contact with supporters

Right-wing media

Dinners with rich donors and billionaires

Yes it sucks, I don't like it either, but pretending it's not a thing does not help!
