In what feels like a repeat of the Eric Adams situation, namely federal prosecutors resigning rather than going along with a naked effort to weaponize their office, a prosecutor in Tennessee resigns over the Abrego Garcia charges: abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...

Chief of Nashville, criminal division resigns over decision to charge Abrego Garcia. That’s a big story and the details will likely be very damning for the administration.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

I miscarried twice…once in a toilet. A 9 week pregnancy is the size of a period clot. I flushed the toilet. Today, I could go to jail for that. Jail. For a wanted pregnancy my body rejected and I took care of by myself.

Reminder; this digital reconstitution of the Petit Donjon de Falaise is more accurate than pretty much any depiction of the interior of a medieval castle I've seen in film & tv shows perhaps ever. Medieval people liked colour & comfort. It's almost as if they were human!

This is how easy it is to get Al to agree with what you want. I asked it where soap was invented and then responded with this suggestive but unfortunately wrong question. This, your honour, is called leading the witness. Chatgpt instantly goes along with it:

As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

Now comes the part where House Republicans who already voted for the “abomination” say how much they respect Musk and agree with what he said, then the part where Senate Republicans say how much they respect Musk and agree with what he said before they end up voting for it too.

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

"The official also said that the timing of the announcement -- occurring during Pride month -- was intentional." I've seen enough. We can confidently declare the Trump administration to be the biggest collection of assholes in American history.

Signal Pete orders Navy to strip name of Supervisor Harvey Milk, assassinated gay rights icon and Korean War veteran, from ship. Here I was thinking that the Trump admin would let June go by without making some sort of statement. www.military.com/daily-news/2...

BREAKING: The opinion of a random person you just encountered online is not, in fact, the universally embraced belief of "the Left" or "Liberals" or whoever else you'd like to paint with a broad brush. More as this story develops.

When @bradtakei.bsky.social and I first got together, we never imagined we’d one day celebrate Pride openly, let alone post about it on the internet. But here we are, joy and all. Happy Pride, everyone! Let’s keep showing up, speaking out, and marching forward (glitter optional, but encouraged). 🌈✨
