“associated community needs” There are certain places it makes sense to offload or trade Forest Service land to communities, for housing, or other real needs. The place and process to do that is NOT in a budget reconciliation bill. This is an *obvious* gift to monied interests. #Resist #AllOfUs

I don’t have the answers today, but, before I can move forward to the coverage that is going to be important in understanding Skrmetti and its consequences, I wanted to just lay out what I’m thinking about in the aftermath — and why. Here it is, tonight at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/where-is-t...

ICE’s argument that its officers need to wear masks due to a surge in assaults doesn’t hold water. Gift link: wapo.st/4l7a1ch

NYT had Tom Homan on The Daily this morning as if he was just a normal guest. They have made a clear decision to lick boots. Couldn’t be me.

Two weeks you say?

I assure you, none of them are mine.

Trump and Musk have subordinates tasked with telling them the truth, but they don’t want to hear it. Free to read: s2.washingtonpost.com/camp-rw/?tra...

I asked ICE where the “413% increase in assaults” justification for its officers using masks came from. They didn’t answer. So I dug into it, and what I found … did not boost their argument. Gift link: wapo.st/4l7a1ch

I keep saying this, but it's unfortunate that this clear work of investigative journalism is tagged as "opinion" placing it in the same category of incredulity as Megan McArdle

"Only 8% of the 805 miles the state identified for construction is complete, which has cost taxpayers more than $3 billion to date..." www.texastribune.org/2025/06/17/t...

I have no words for her disgusting behavior.

KKKaroline only had to say 14 words...😒

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Let's also point out that chungus there on the right in the picture is wearing the distinct Palestinian keffiyeh, and I very much doubt he supports the existence of Palestine.

The global aid sector is quite literally on the brink of death right now and the human fallout globally is already obscene and will keep getting much, much worse. People in the U.S. need to be far more aware of this - and angry - than they currently are.

Left on the cutting room floor of this mag piece, on trump ordering them to do that Covid era rally: “We got the call from the campaign and they said: We’re doing it because that’s what the boss wants,” recalls Sarah Matthews, who was one of Trump’s White House spokespeople during his first term…

nonzero chance that neither the World Cup nor the 2028 Summer Olympics take place in the United States the way things are going

He put himself on the First Lady wall lol

It should but we've been talking for a few years about why it doesn't.

This is how you write a headline involving Confederate Lost Cause bullshit.

This is who Pete Hegseth is. He’s pro-confederacy. He’s a white supremacist. He is affiliated with Christian Nationalist Doug Wilson, who calls himself a “Paleo-Confederate”. Hegseth sends his children to Doug Wilson’s schools were they learn revisionist Lost Cause Christian National “history.”

ICE at Home Depot on Sunset this morning. SIDEBAR: me to a friend from East LA, “At some point these masked, anonymous ‘ICE agents’ are going to roll up on the wrong people and get capped.” She said she was told, “ICE is avoiding the gang areas for their own safety.” Talk about a MAGA hoodwink.

Trump would have posted about "too many holidays" on MLK day, but he was busy avoiding putting his hand on the bible that day.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk wants to send a cargo ship to Mars by the end of next year. Here’s why that plan likely won’t pan out.

God the way media babies him It bought his fraudulent autobiographical self-mythologizing, it credulously reports every hyperbolic claim he makes about his products knowing that they're false, and even when he says something colossally stupid and fantastical like this he gets earned media coverage

Fascism coming fast to the US

OK i’ve seen almost no media outlet pick up on the fact the Supreme Court ruling endorsed conversion therapy and opens a portal to the normalization of conversion therapy nationally so here’s a thread explaining how they did so, and why you should care (1/x)

anyone who’s legitimately afraid of the NYC subway would immediately piss themselves and collapse if they came to Philly and had to take the El at night

Senator Slotkin cleaned Hegseth’s clock. It was glorious.

y'know it's kind of a tell that they think celebrating the end of slavery is DEI
