>$2.5 Billion unappropriated taxpayer dollars, for those counting.
In a nationwide address that major US TV networks are carrying live, President Trump announces 1,450,000 military members will receive a "warrior dividend" of $1776 before Christmas.

This may be true. But in actuality, he’s worthless.
Elon Musk’s net worth now stands at $632 billion, according to Bloomberg.

He is worth 2.5 x as much as the second person on the list, Google co-founder Larry Page who is worth $256 billion.

Trump is often discussed as one of the worst presidents in modern American history, but it’s important to remember that such a categorization is far too narrow.

Public lands oversight is broken. Cattle graze uncontrolled because agencies lack staff. Environmental reviews have nearly disappeared. Originally published by @propublica.org  and @highcountrynews.org News.
The Diminishing Oversight of Livestock Grazing on Public Lands
Federal law requires agencies to review the environmental impacts of grazing, but the system is riddled with loopholes.

This (along with masked law enforcement) should be a target of legislation by the next Democratic majority. Democrats (and all elected officials faithful to their oath to the Constitution) should campaign then legislate on ending these concrete, horrifying practices of a nascent police state.
You're walking home from the gym when you're stopped by FBI officers in an unmarked car. They handcuff you, even though you tell them you're a US citizen.

Then, they scan your face.

Jesus Gutiérrez told immigration agents he was a U.S. citizen. Only after they scanned his face, did the agents let him go.

It is important to promise, now, that whatever Trump builds at the White House will be torn down as soon as he leaves.

The new iOS is, for the first time since they’ve been introduced, making me think about switching to a non-iPhone.
- Buttons with same icons do different things
- Button placements aren’t uniform
- Can’t see text
- functions take extra steps
- increased latency even? On a 16pro!
- & on and on…

Wow, that must be so terrifying to think you're being abducted.
The agent, who’s assigned to another HSI office and is in Minnesota on “temporary detail for an operation,” is unfamiliar with the Twin Cities, did not know where they were going, and “was in fear that he was being abducted.”

Nvidia is spending $1.3 billion to rent its own chips back from CoreWeave, a company in which it owns a $4 billion stake.

There are, AFAICT, only two explanations for this arrangement:

(1) It's accounting fraud.
(2) It's accounting non-fraud, because we don't prosecute financial crimes anymore.
