2. Erroneously updated the expiration date on stored credit cards for millions of Safari users

Billionaire Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, pardoned by Donald Trump, has been accused of facilitating millions of dollars’ worth of payments to Hamas in the wake of its attack on Israel on October 7 2023. Zhao also financed the Trump family's entrance into the cryptocurrency market.

Gavin Newsom is jumping on the affordability bandwagon. Only one problem: He hasn’t made it any cheaper to live in California
Newsom Isn’t the Best ‘Affordability’ Messenger
California Governor Gavin Newsom got a hero’s welcome last week when he arrived in Brazil for COP30. Because President Donald Trump basically boycotted the United Nations Climate Summit, it was Newsom who ended up huddling with diplomats and executives, and getting mobbed by delegates, activists and adoring fans.

Trump admin Is attempting to massive cut federal transit funds, seeking to:
1–Eliminate transit account, which funds billions of $ in capital expenses for transit agencies
2–Prevent state DOTs from “flexing” funds for transit
These changes, if they occurred, would be devastating for US transit.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
