Lindsey Graham is as vulnerable as he has ever been because he is as unpopular as he has ever been.

open.substack.com/pub/rorycell... On Sunday afternoon as I sat at my laptop I asked myself a tricky question - why do I carry on working?

ESCoE Advisory Board member @bartvanark.bsky.social in conversation with ESCoE Leadership Executive member @dianecoyle1859.bsky.social and Jan Mischke on the productivity slowdown.

Major General Randy E. Manner, former Acting Vice Chief, National Guard Bureau statement to Fox News: "This is an inappropriate use of the National Guard and is not warranted.”

My dear friend Tasneem in Gaza sent me the message below. Please give at the link, if you care to. The civilians in Gaza rely on our donations to survive, even more so during the aid blockade. www.gofundme.com/f/help-tasne...

He shouldn’t have taken the post down. He’s a reporter. And he was reporting facts.

I don't teach again until winter '26. Here's a working draft of the AI policy I'm thinking of using then. Subject to revision and apocalypse, of course.

I ruined the Proud Boys’ press conference 😂

Yesterday, I confronted Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys, for planning the January 6 attack…then I got taken away by Capitol police.

Thank you so much for all the follows! I really appreciate it ❤️ I’ve been protesting the Proud Boys and other white supremacist groups for years, but only really started recording in the last 5 years. For example, here’s a video of when I protested the Proud Boys on January 2025 👇

Seeing myself appear in a CNN documentary introduced by Anderson Cooper is surreal 😳😊

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.

Let’s be very clear: Los Angeles is the perfect place for this to play out for the Trumpists. The Trumpists hate California and hate Los Angeles and a vast amount of their base feels the same — even the Trumpists here, who wallow in hating the place they live. /1

Update 6/7/2025

Voters in 7 states can no longer protect themselves from racial discrimination.

Trump can't have it both ways. Either the economy is not only strong but "hot," and therefore doesn't need the Fed to stimulate it further. Or the economy is weak and struggling, and therefore the Fed needs to intervene and cuts rates. Which is it?

Currently in Brandt's cormorant heaven 🪶 so many fun shots of birds and pinnipeds in La Jolla today! 🌿

Update 6/4/2025

I tried to do a version of this report that @warren.senate.gov did, but gave up. The task was too overwhelming!! Two-plus full pages, 34 of 130 entries, focus on the regulatory help Musk got after buying the Presidency for Trump. (This is just a selection.) www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Look on the bright side. We no longer have to deal with the crushing scourge of the occasional trans athlete.

We went so viral this week I’m worried RFK Jr. is going to start telling people to take vitamin A and ivermectin to get rid of me. Spoiler alert: it won’t work for the measles and it won’t work for me

IT experts from the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine have hacked the resources of the Russian United Aircraft Company Tupolev. Tupolev is a Russian company in the field of design, production and maintenance of missile carriers and special-purpose aircraft⤵️

@nickofferman.bsky.social is the absolute best 💜 Be more like him, and less like that weirdo he quoted

I’m starting my annual walk across Connecticut today! Beginning in the very northwest corner of the state - Salisbury. I will talk to hundreds of people over the next few days about what they want (and don’t want!) from their elected leaders. My favorite week of the year!

Thank you, @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com The people who are dying as a result of Trump and Musk's cruelty should not be voiceless. All who speak up for them are doing humanity's basic work - seeing even humans who are not directly connected to them.

How the attack on Russian strategic aircraft happened: a video appeared online 1/4

Slava Ukraini!🇺🇦 Glory to our Heroes!🇺🇦l #Ukraine

Zelenskyy: “Today, a brilliant operation was carried out — on enemy territory, targeting only military objectives, specifically the equipment used to strike Ukraine. Russia suffered significant losses — entirely justified and deserved.”1/
