When Congress funded the DOD, there was no line item for big-boy birthday presidential military parades. Where did the money for Trump’s vainglorious spectacle come from? Cutting Army pay and benefits? Reducing training? Or just Departmental slush funds from bloated annual budgets?

Nothing dramatic happens in this trail-cam clip, captured recently on one of the streams that flows off Monarch Pass. Yet it’s among my all-time favorites — for its lighting, its composition, and of course the subtle beauty and grace of the beaver herself, perfectly at home in her aquatic milieu.

Will Bunch: Trump wants 1 million deported, but despite his lies there aren't many murderers and rapists. Instead, they arrest teens for Driving While Brown, or use a ploy to disappear refugees who come to immigration court. The pathetic truth behind ICE's masks. www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

Let's be really clear: similar asks are happening everywhere across corporate media and we're not hearing about it when the targets quietly agree to comply. Deep respect to the hosts of the View for their courage in rejecting corporate cowardice

McGovern: House rules require a super majority vote for any bill that increases income taxes. Guess what? Republicans are turning that rule off. Why did they have to do that? Because they know this bill will increase taxes on those families struggling the most to put food on the table.

Will "Shoeless" Joe Jackson finally make it into the Baseball Hall of Fame? Or will his involvement in one of baseball’s biggest scandals preclude those voters from checking his name if it gets on a ballot? 📝 @pwsullivan.bsky.social

“One thing about seeing him (Pope Leo XIV) become pope, it gives you hope that you can really do whatever you want, no matter where you’re from,” Ward said. “Even if you’re from a small town like Dolton, you can reach your dreams.”

The worship of seniority in the Democratic caucus is self-defeating bullshit. Put in power the people who will make voters give a damn.

Today, we wasted time voting on renaming the Gulf of Mexico—a name it’s had for almost 500 YEARS. We’ve got folks losing healthcare, schools underfunded, and rights under attack. We’ve got real issues. Prioritize THAT.

@pwsullivan.bsky.social wrote a great article about the NFL draft slide of Shedeur Sanders. He even mentions when Cartlon Fisk scolded @coachprime.bsky.social about not running out a pop fly and respecting the game of baseball. Now that was “LEGENDARY”.
