Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live. If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

The Trump administration has effectively ended white-collar crime enforcement. All this week, we're going to look at what ripoffs, deceptions, and cons will rise as a result to part the public from their money. This intro sets the stage: it's the Golden Age of Scams. prospect.org/power/2025-0...

"So destroying Harvard, even if the campaign against intellectualism stopped there — which it wouldn’t — would be like pulling a crucial piece out of a Jenga tower. The odds are that the whole structure of the Greater Boston education and innovation ecosystem would collapse."

every STEM-based industry competes for high skilled talent, much of it from overseas that pipeline runs through universities tech, biotech, & pharma leaders can’t do their fiduciary duty to their companies & stakeholders by staying on the sidelines they’re in the line of fire too

“With grotesque, false narratives, they can make heroes criminals and criminals heroes. And they can change the definition of the words we use to describe reality. ‘Diversity’ is now described as ‘illegal.’ ‘Equity’ is to be shunned. ‘Inclusion’ is a dirty word. This is an old playbook, my friends.”

“It is an extraordinary & unprecedented development in American history that the Nation’s Federal Judiciary would have to consider having its own security force because federal judges cannot trust the US Marshal’s Service under this President & his AG. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/may-26-2025

Good one from Andy Borowitz.

Abortion bans are a violation of the separation of church and state. So are book bans. So are anti-LGBT laws. So are school vouchers. Notice a pattern?

This Is Embarrassing And Disturbing… 🇨🇦🇩🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇩🇰🇳🇱🇫🇷 Canada, Germany, England, Denmark, Netherlands, and France all have travel advisory warnings for visiting America. Let that sink in.

Australian woman says she was deported after visiting her US army officer husband at Hawaii base. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Her stats line up with CDC data…

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

Why? Looking for another place to deport people to? Or she looking for a new home?

Our current president is severely mentally unwell, and the media needs to cover it now.

Things we didn't know for a $400 million airplane Alex.

Stop the @bsky.app bashing. We’re all under a tremendous strain. We’re not perfect. I block when I need to, but ignore most foolishness. Don’t become goaded into leaving a platform that’s doing almost all the right things. To organize for 2026, we need to stay in communication w/each other.

Counting down to retirement. Three days to: No "standups" No calendar of meetings No alarm clock... Just these two hooligans and time to wander.

Challenge the bully. Don’t let him have his way. As with McCarthy, sometimes it just takes one courageous moment to puncture the balloon. Maybe we will have a moment like that. But even if we don’t, the way to challenge the bully is by voting. joycevance.substack.com/p/stand-up-t...

This is going to get less play than other aspects of the mounting corruption, but it's an illustration of how chaotic and unsupervised everything is. (Ignore the terrible headline.) nypost.com/2025/05/23/u...

A press freedom advocacy group has threatened to sue Paramount Global if the company settles its lawsuit with President Donald Trump merely to get approval for its merger with Skydance Media.

With Alt-text:

I’ll say this and then I’m gonna step back b/c 2026 IS THE ONLY NATIONAL ELECTION THAT’S IMPORTANT NOW. No Dem presidential candidate wins w/o high Black turnout & vote. So stop making it like Black voters are expendable or that you can serve up any candidate chosen by Pelosi, Clooney or MSM & win.

Do it! They willing willingly strip every person of their health care and any thing else they can legislate away. OUT them ALL.

This week, the Secretary of Homeland Security showed she did not even know what the term "habeas corpus" meant. It was a truly pathetic moment, but also truly representative of the embarrassing ignorance of this administration and their lack of respect for the rule of law. #ResistTrump

Start every day with this reality: EVERY HOUSE SEAT and 33 Senate seats are up for election in 2026. THAT must be the focus. Let’s get disciplined. #LeaveNoPowerOnTheTable ballotpedia.org/United_State...

Looking at you @cnn.com @washingtonpost.com @nytimes.com @latimes.com @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy

Been waiting for this. Good!

So what are they doing with all of that "found" money?

‼️‼️

@marcelias.bsky.social so sad to hear about your loss of Bode. Dogs make us better human beings and guide us through tough times with their love and devotion. I hope you find another canine companion that takes over where Bode left off. Much love from another lover dogs 💓
