Lindsey Graham: "When this clock strikes 12 on the Trump era, there will be a few people walking out the door with Donald Trump. Stephen Miller will be in that group. I want everybody to know on the Republican side."

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

perhaps "abolish" has been thrown around a lot as a word because "do that one scene from fargo to them" has too many characters. who's to say.

Microsoft CEO says AI “risks becoming a speculative bubble unless its use spreads beyond big tech companies and wealthy economies.” Brother you’re the one building this dogshit, we’re three years and hundreds of billions in, how have you not worked it out?

What about the ICE BUCKET, Chuck
NEW: In this interview, Chuck Schumer describes the "five buckets" Dems think are key to their possibly winning a Senate majority in 2026: housing, "the high price of food [and] food monopolies playing a major role there," electricity, "the high cost of childcare," and health care.
Zero Chucks Left to Give
Chuck Schumer now sees a path back to the majority. Can he manage his way through it?

Like I'm not saying this is just the supplier unexpectedly asking for more money for no reason and they're trying to pass it off as "onshoring", but I don't know how it would look any different than these press releases if it was -- like maybe they could give the actual details?

The United States is behaving like a rogue state. The President has carried out an illegal act of war, kidnapped a foreign head of state, and is now threatening military action against NATO allies. This is a constitutional crisis.
Impeachment must be on the table.

This is what people don't understand about LA. This place is all about cars, sure, but most people sit in bumper to bumper traffic and don't actually know how to drive. Then you add rain and oil and it's like Spy Hunter out there
Also that first rain after a very long drought when all the oil pools up on the freeway, this is not the day to be on the freeway.
