The House has voted unanimously to repeal the provisions in the shutdown package which allow GOP Senators to sue the federal government and get as much as $1 million in damages - because the feds looked at their phone records in the Jan. 6 investigation.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

As usual, Steve Kerr is right. Trimming the NBA regular season schedule by about ten games would cut down on injuries, and we'd have fewer playoff series decided by which team's star player blew out his Achilles in late May.

For any other President, this would be the worst, most career-destroying thing they ever said. For Trump, it was Tuesday.
Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."
