Funny how 7-10 million of us managed to gather all over the country without a single violent incident that was not instigated by MAGA. But the minute a few hundred of us gather to protest ICE we turn into violent rioters who need to be pepper sprayed?
Smells like, complete and utter bullshit.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

To pretend the US hasn’t done things like this before would be foolish, but that doesn’t mean this should not be prosecuted now, and in the future, by whomever allows it to happen.

The pardons Trump is handing out are a huge, growing scandal that not enough people are talking about. This is a money making operation - for for Trump, his family, his crypto pals, and the Trump-affiliated lobbyists and grifters who the pardon seekers pay.

An update on the fight over health insurance premiums:
Republicans have basically stopped negotiating. Trump is more focused on his ballroom than these cost hikes.
Later this month, Senate Democrats will force a vote on this - one last chance for GOP to do the right thing.

Waiting on the identity on the charged bomber, but as an old explosives prosecutor, I'll say that evidence of identity can come from bomb signatures recognized by investigators w/institutional knowledge, components & where they were purchased, or tips. Revisiting old evidence can be illuminating.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.
