Ten years of Trump going on TV and just fucking saying whatever, and still nothing like an industry set of best practices to deal with it. Put someone on the set with a laptop to look stuff up, pause the interview, whatever. He'd walk off but so what. Amazing to still be at "agree to disagree."

It will continue to fry my brain that the app I once used to meet other gay people in NYC and make jokes on is now a state actor pumping out propaganda for a government that’s kidnapping people
Trump just posted a photo of himself holding up a piece of paper claiming to show tattoos on Kilmar Abrego Garcia that are related to MS-13. The paper he’s holding up has been digitally altered to add the characters MS-13.
The claim comes from neo-Nazis on X who say the tattoos cover up “MS-13.”

I went to an event packed with 100s of companies looking to contract with border enforcement and the Trump administration as they ramp up detentions and deportations. The main event sponsor is running the Guantanamo Bay Migrant Operations Center — they handed out tote bags.

A federal judge has ruled that five government agencies must release billions in funding for climate and infrastructure projects paused under Trump.
Judge Mary McElroy — a Trump appointee — issued the temporary injunction. It instructs the admin to release the funds while a lawsuit proceeds.
