Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

"Stephen Miller soon joined a growing list of senior Trump-administration political appointees—at least six by our count—living in Washington-area military housing, where they are shielded not just from potential violence but also from protest." Others include Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth.
Top Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military Bases
Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

20 minutes of non-stop pelican feeding action after sunset. Not another photography in sight in a county of nearly 10 million people.

Take a couple seconds to chill and clear your mind. I certainly did ❤️ 🪶

Screenshot of ProPublica story that reads “Newby declined multiple interview requests from ProPublica and even had a reporter escorted out of a judicial conference to avoid questions. He also did not answer detailed written questions. The court system’s communications director and media team did not respond to multiple requests for comment or detailed written questions. When ProPublica emailed questions to Newby’s daughter, the North Carolina Republican Party’s communications director, Matt Mercer, responded, writing that ProPublica was waging a “jihad” against “NC Republicans,” which would “not be met with dignifying any comments whatsoever.” “I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration and I’m sure they would be interested in this matter,” Mercer said in his email. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” “

Qualified immunity concerns civil suits, as well. There are certain legal thresholds that have to be crossed before a civil suit can proceed. But a lot of such suits meet that threshold and this one will (if filed) as well. This was outrageous.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

People ask a lot about whether protests matter. While Trump’s approval rating is driven by many factors, events like the No Kings rallies likely play a role, too. Media coverage and people seeing their neighbors take a stand help convey that disapproval is not just acceptable but widespread.

Donald Trump's approval rating in our tracker has fallen to -18, the lowest it has ever been (lower than any point in his first term) www.economist.com/interactive/...
Chart showing Trump's net approval compared with this point in previous presidencies. In 2009, Obama's approval at this point was approximately +7, in 2017 Trump's was -16 and in 2021 Biden's was -7

I honestly don't think the NY Times has been this bad in my lifetime, it's deeply shameful.
A screengrab from the NY Times, under the category "N.Y.C. Mayor's Race": What Zohran Mamdani Learned as an Africana Studies Major at Bowdoin The Democratic candidate has said his education was formative. But critics say that his degree exemplifies how colleges steep students in leftist dogma.

Post from sports writer Andy McCullough reads: “I requested the great Dieter Ruehle play Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus” on the organ, and he obliged. Someone must deliver us from this game, and it might as well be the songwriter Martin Gore.”
