Science and Anti-Musk Nerds: This is for you too. ⬇️

Tough week for Musk: 1. Texas lawmakers ask Tesla to delay robotaxi launch. 2. Starship 36 explodes on launch pad. 3. Starlink rival Eutelsat raises 1.35 billion euro ($1.55 billion) capital raise backed by France. Macron says its success is a question of strategic sovereignty.

More concerns about the quality of US economic data: “.. almost a third of the prices going into the CPI at the moment are guesses based on other data collections in the CPI.” - Apollo/Slok

The Appeals Court stripped Californians of their National Guard. Those units are now under the command of a demented sociopath determined to wreak havoc on our state. Four thousand US military are in position on city streets? Is the picture clear yet? #FascismHasArrived

And it is the will of the people

Sure, sideline Hegseth and Gabbard—but it's worth noting the so-called expert “Tier One” team advising on Iran is *itself* the LEAST qualified & most inexperienced national security team of any modern presidency: VP JD Vance, Joint Chiefs Chair Dan Caine, SecState Rubio, and CIADIR John Ratcliffe!

'Out of a job right now': Judge accused of helping immigrant evade ICE 'wants a trial date' as case is 'hanging over her head' — and is now delayed, her lawyers say Chris PerezJun 19th, 2025, 5:43 pm lawandcrime.com/high-profile...

if you don’t know the history of Dodger Stadium you can’t fully understand what unfolded today. thanks @chrislhayes.bsky.social for the opportunity to share it.

It’s time

Glad midsommar! 💐

Really glad kids are growing up with Juneteenth, even is it is illegal to explain what it’s all about in 21 states.

THERE ARE NO DEALS THERE ARE NO DEALS THERE ARE NO DEALS THERE ARE NO DEALS THERE ARE NO DEALS No deals for TikTok No deals for trade & tariffs No deals for peace with Putin, Hamas or Khamenei No deals for bipartisan legislation No deals in "two weeks" THERE ARE NO DEALS

And this isn't just any Dodgers game. It's a Dodgers/Padres game. Yet ICE says there's no particular reason they wanted access. Sure, Jan. GTFO.

He put himself on the First Lady wall lol

We went from UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!!! to “we’ll see what happens in two weeks.”

Trump is about to take us into a new war, and we don’t even have a fully functioning Department of Defense. Let that sink in.

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

"It was weird," Weah said, via The Guardian. "I was caught by surprise, honestly, when he started talking politics, with Iran and everything. I was kind of like, I just want to play football … sports.yahoo.com/article/pres...

Bless the Dodgers for ejecting ICE! America’s pastime is baseball, not chasing down hardworking mothers and fathers.

Nailed it. 🎯🎯🎯

For those who say “Illegal is illegal”—on this Juneteenth, remember: slavery was legal. Helping an enslaved person escape? Illegal. Black freedom? Illegal. That phrase has always been used to defend injustice. Legality ≠ morality. Justice demands more.

DHS wants 72 hours notice before inspections of detention facilities. Kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

“There is a vast chasm between the concept of freedom inscribed on paper and the reality of freedom in our lives.” Revisit Jelani Cobb‘s piece, from 2020, on Juneteenth and the meaning of freedom.

They're anti-free speech

Who will ever forget "Mission Accomplished"?

It's always two weeks. I keep thinking of the Money Pit.
