Musk is a mass murderer on a scale with some of the worst monsters of history, so it's not really like the scales are evened by having a moderately well known author eviscerate him on his own platform.
still, you take what you can get.

Mere hours after the Democrats cave on health care — and less than a week after the only encouraging sign of electoral push back against the right-wing disregard for of the nation's laws and founding principles — we get this news that their attacks on voting rights may be advancing further.
Breaking News: The Supreme Court said that it would hear a challenge to a Mississippi law that could upend mail-ballot rules in many states before the midterm elections.
Supreme Court to Hear Major Challenge to Mail-In Ballot Laws
The justices agreed to hear a challenge to Mississippi’s law, a case that could upend similar measures in dozens of states before the 2026 election.

I've mostly been rewriting the same talking points every time a new gambling scandal pops up. My feelings haven't changed. I think it's time to look at some realistic ways MLB can get out of the super-specific prop bet business, but this comes first:

Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz Face Federal Indictment
MLB can’t countenance the kind of behavior alleged — players rigging bets, and arranging to do so from the ballpark during games — and survive.

A group of Democrats seem to have consolidated on rescuing the Rs from the Rs' own shutdown by passing a "CR" (short-term fund the gov for 1 month bill). A bunch of Bluesky is organizing calls in protest before the vote (202-224-3121 for the switchboard) (but this probably means leaving a voicemail)

The only exception to that is with respect to reductions in force (RIFs). The bill appears to both roll back RIFs announced during the shutdown and prevent any further RIFs between now and Jan 30.

I see nothing in here that would require the White House to actually spend any available funds, prevent rescissions or withholding of payments, or do anything to change what has become an unsettling status quo in this calendar year.

there's no doubt that gambling is an addiction, and it may well be the case in this particular situation, but imo we know far too little to establish that and defaulting to addiction as the reason for bad/inexplicable (at the moment) decisions doesn't seem like great praxis

They’re wearing masks so they can’t be prosecuted later. As long as they think they can’t be prosecuted, their crimes will intensify. They will torture, starve and kill, as they have already, on greater and greater scale.

I’ve come to believe that we need to gather considerable forces and a campaign to demand the removal of face masks by ICE, Border Patrol, FBI and police.
It is a practice in conflict with the principles of transparency & accountability that are central to the concept of democracy.

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)
