JORDAN: Comey is where weaponization all started. 9 years ago he took the dossier--

BASH: But that's not what he's being prosecuted for

JORDAN: I'm just saying, you want to talk about weaponization, that's where it started

BASH: So this is retribution then

Amy Coney Barrett defends heavy use of the shadow docket: "If we wrote a long opinion, it might give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue, and in none of these cases have we finally resolved the issue."

My only pair of cowboy boots is at home. My feet are oddly shaped, so cowboy boots that fit are really hard to come by.

Do I NEED an oilskin duster and an outback hat? Of course not. But I do own both now just in case I'm ever called to a gunfight or something...

If you look closely, you can see signs of GOP lawmakers fearing the long-term political consequences of paying more attention to Trump's demands than to the voices of their own constituents - or consciences.

If productivity gains with AI use were truly so large, orgs wouldn't be regularly asking me how to audit which staff are using AI vs not.

The only tool you should need is managers telling you who is 10%+++ more effective since you deployed the new AI tooling. Unless of course those claims are... 🤔

But he's also right here. The productivity gains aren't as advertised.

The Trump administration on Saturday scrambled to rescind layoffs of hundreds of CDC scientists who were mistakenly fired on Friday night in what appeared to be a substantial procedural lapse.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov Stop letting Illinois Law Enforcement aid and abet the gestapo. Seriously, man. You may not be able to stop ICE altogether, but you CAN stop making it easier for them to do the evil things they are doing.

Outside of the Broadview ICE facility, a state trooper tells the delegation attempting to have communion with detainees that ICE has denied their request.

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

I view that as a very specific form of money laundering, but if you don't, then that's definitely another use case.

Crypto currency has very limited use cases. The most prolific are:

WTF is their goal? Small government means every man for themselves when the next catastrophe hits? What is the point? Government isn’t a business, it’s a service for the people. You’re saving minimal money with these cuts and only hurting literally everyone
