The FBI pulled all-nighters and burned nearly $1M in OT trying to redact the Epstein files all the while Trumpworld argued over what to hide or release. The panic says more than the pages do. Transparency shouldn’t be optional. What are they hiding?

Still thinking about this article. It’s always been a sore spot in YIMBY circles that so many progressive foundations pour money into NIMBYism, and I’m glad it’s finally being aired in public. Keep talking about it. www.insidephilanthropy.com/home/philant...
Philanthropy Needs to Pick a Side on the Housing Construction Debate
Despite California’s severe housing shortage, foundations are still funding on the wrong side of the housing fight there, guest author Ned Resnikoff writes.

Note that the very existence of big utilities is bad.
The ideal is energy efficiency + decentralized renewables but coal is preferred to zero-emissions hydro and nuclear because the target here is industrial-scale enterprises not pollution.

16-year-old American Mohammed Ibrahim has been released after over 9 months in an Israeli prison without trial.
I was relieved to hear from his family today and to know that he’s safe and where he belongs — with his family.

not just to score political points: trump is using the military, including National Guard, as part of a broader effort to consolidate power without limits. These 2 National Guardsmen should have been celebrating the holiday with their families; I hope they recover soon.
These two things are true:
1) Shooting National Guard members is horrific and criminal.
2) So is putting National Guard members in harm’s way to score political points.

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.

Our new open-access research paper in @findingspress.org investigates effects of decades of downzoning in Chicago.
Findings:
—Downzoned areas added 1/7th of the new units as comparable non-downzoned areas;

Please, especially if you live in one of the seven states whose troops continue to occupy our city, urge the governors to send them home.

Trump doesn't care that his deployment of the National Guard is dangerous — but the governors deploying these Guard members should.
We're calling on Governors Ivey, Kemp, Landry, Reeves, DeWine, Lee, and Morrisey to recall their Guard members from DC. Email all seven: bit.ly/seven-governors
