For the hard of thinking - what Trump and his lackeys are saying about Somali people is what the Nazis said about Jews, and if that isn't enough to jolt you out of your slumber, then you're already on the wrong side of history.

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Seattle is not small or narrow. It’s huge and we can easily double our population if we are being realistic. It would fund transit, schools and services and bring an economic vitality and vibrancy to every part of our city

Of the 13 clubs who spent more than the Sounders, only one is playing for this final trophy. (Vancouver is 21st on this list). The team that knocked us out in the first round? 26th. Long way of saying spending is not a guarantee of anything.

Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

One frequent complaint used against new housing projects is that “they’re only building new fancy expensive condos/apartments, not regular housing for average people”.
But supply and demand means if you DON’T build it, you have less.
And this paper shows if you do build it… prices are lowered.

Interesting new working paper that studies chains of movers after the construction of a new apartment building in Honolulu.
Paper finds that the project resulted in the opening up other, lower cost, housing on the island, benefiting the housing market overall.

I guarantee you could post this on every social media outlet in existence and in a few years you'd have people swearing up and down that the problem with the grid is solar or wind or some such nonsense
big late breaking news: the market monitor for the largest energy grid in the u.s., covering much of the midwest and mid-atlantic, has called to block new data centers connections to the grid, saying current course of growth assures regular blackouts
No more PJM data centers unless they can be reliably served: market monitor
The PJM Interconnection’s market monitor urged the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to rule that large data centers can only come online if the grid operator can still meet reliability metrics.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.

DOGE resulted in the FAA becoming slower, less effective, and now that we’re coming out of shutdown it’s taking longer to get back up to speed because of DOGE processes to get some of our contract staff back up and working.
Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*
The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.
