First Khalil Shakir, now Terrel Bernard. Buffalo is spending the build up to free agency focusing on their core players and locking them up 💰 💰 💰
Another Bills star locked in: The Bills have agreed to terms with standout LB Terrel Bernard on a 4-year, $50M contract extension, per me, Mike Garafolo and… Kyle Brandt, our Bernard whisperer.

Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.
Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

In 2023, Colorado, Connecticut, and Maine passed laws to prevent utilities from charging customers for lobbying and advertising.
Customers in those states saved hundreds of thousands of dollars after regulators began enforcing the laws last year: https://buff.ly/3EATVqR

Colorado and Connecticut lowered utility bills by reining in lobbying
A handful of other states have introduced similar legislation with the aim of saving ratepayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Conservative billionaires are funding a coordinated effort to dismantle public education to pay for private school vouchers that largely benefit wealthy families and enable corporations to avoid their fair share in taxes.

ICYMI: A second federal judge today blocked Trump’s executive order that aimed to end birthright citizenship. This judge in Maryland had reportedly issued a more permanent nation wide injunction that goes further than the temporary restraining order issued from Seattle.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Water is becoming a major issue in the Southern California fires.
As crews battled the wildfire in Pacific Palisades, they put so much strain on the water system that the fire hydrants ran dry.
The fires have also fed ash into the water supply, leading to a boil order notice.
