Hi, y'all.
A lot of you followed me tonight because @blueheronfarm.bsky.social reskeeted my post.
A few things to know.
1) most of my posts are cars, dogs, or food.
2) most of my RePosts are politics.
3) I know one hell of a lot about 1 and 2, might hold degrees in some of them.

Burgum: "CO2 was never a pollutant. When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2. So the whole endangerment thing opens up an opportunity for the revival of clean, beautiful, American coal."

So far, this hearing has been Bondi yelling at and berating Democratic lawmakers for asking for justice for Epstein survivors.

Every year the BLS does a benchmark revision which incorporates new and more detailed information. This year's revision suggests that 2025 was a far worse year than earlier estimates suggested, and total job growth was less than half that suggested by the initial estimates.

Actually... you do have that right, but there may be consequences to you exercising it unless you're a J6 rioter, then you just catch a federal pardon, molest a child, and then get arrested again.

Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

The president of OpenAI has donated almost as much to Trump as the DNC has cash on hand www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...
Democratic donors have spent a year frozen, largely out of justified anger at the consultant class, the spammy texts, and lack of leadership from some elected leaders.
That anger, however, is also hurting outside groups doing critical work — and that could hurt us in November.

The vents seem satisfying to use I guess and maybe the 2 toggle switches on the display sound good but everything else sounds like cheap resonant plastics.

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.
