Some pics from #NoKings rally in Brookline, Mass. Not a great camera angle, at least 1,000 people spread across busy intersection. (Excellent police work to keep traffic flowing and protestors peacefully protesting.)

We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again

At airport, waiting for a flight. I gazed across the gate area, and there was historian David McCullough, prize-winning author of 'Truman', talking on a pay phone. I looked at McCullough. He looked at me. He knew I knew who he was. McCullough nodded at me, gravely. I nodded back. That was all.

One of the greatest, most disturbing quotes I've seen in a long time www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/t...

Russ Vought's CFPB tried to do a corporate pardon with a mortgage broker who had already entered a final judgment and paid a fine for egregious lending discrimination. The judge looked at it and said, "No." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

“The agencies, BLS included, are in survival mode,” Michael Horrigan, Upjohn Institute president and former BLS associate commissioner tells @politico.com. “You can’t save that money simply by cutting sampling or cutting indexes—The only way to save that kind of money is by cutting survey programs.”

Never seen a more accurate Onion headline

SCOOP: Guardsmen deployed to LA aren't on formal orders, thus aren't set up to be paid or get healthcare yet www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Trump is spending $134 million to needlessly deploy troops to LA and $45 million to throw himself a birthday military parade — he seems to think the US military is a toy for his amusement, funded by American taxpayers.

If you don't want Apple's AI running on your gear, here's how to turn it off.

My new piece, "The Cost of a Lie," which addresses the recent Kousisis decision, is now available: www.gwlr.org/kousisis-the... Kousisis is a notable departure from recent SCOTUS decisions that have narrowed the scope of fraud and corruption statutes in the United States.

What I need from #AI is a tool that automatically says no to all those apps interrupting me with 'Would you like to use AI?' questions.

Nothing says government efficiency like destroying life saving medication that has already been paid for. share.newsbreak.com/dg9c03gg

AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Grok are falsely claiming that two photos shared by Gavin Newsom, which he claimed to show National Guard troops sleeping on the floor in LA, were from 2021 in Afghanistan. In fact, both photos were published in an exclusive report by the San Francisco Chronicle today.

Companies are turning cash tax payments into “IOUs” on the balance sheet—despite no guarantee of recovery. Which companies? We have the list! @fmckenna.bsky.social Despite the name, companies use accounting tactics that assign a lot of certainty to UTPs open.substack.com/pub/deepquar...

On the left, residents cleaning up their streets. On the right, federalized Guard arriving to quell "violent mobs." You can see some holding their assault rifles. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

"It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy” www.wnep.com/article/news...

Can we stop saying “the girls are fighting”? The girls would never. This is two man-children crying over EV mandates that boost their own stock and who scrubbed the Epstein list. The only thing the girls would be fighting over is how to fix childcare and housing the fastest.

On this date in 1934, FDR signed the bill creating the #SEC to regulate #WallStreet, one of many steps he took to make capitalism safer for ordinary people. Today, the FDR rulebook is being shredded and Washington is catering only to the wealthiest among us. Why on earth would we accept that?
