Nazi Germany established over 44,000 incarceration sites during the Third Reich. Most were outside the boundaries of Germany

As for Stanford’s running backs, gotta love the depth. Chris Davis Jr., Micah Ford, and Cole Tabb a great young trio. Tuna Altahir bringing great size and ability as a grad transfer. Sedrick Irvin Jr. looking good, etc. Very deep and talented RB room. #Stanford #ACCFB

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

Not a fan, but I will feel the Bern today t.co/26Z4njiAMs

The Dodgers will celebrate Jackie Robinson today after palling around with Trump last week despite Trump trying to erase Robinson’s legacy. Can’t have it both ways, fellas: open.substack.com/pub/mollykni...

William "Boss" Tweed died in jail on this date in 1878 having fallen from grace as the Grand Sachem of the Tammany political machine that stole up to $45M from New York. "I was never a president or a casino owner or able to manipulate entire stock markets," he mused, "but I did what I could."

Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

Two Chinese nationals caught fighting for Russia in Ukraine, Zelenskyy says

You guys really owned the libs sticking with a dumbfuck clown hellbent on wrecking shit beyond the point of no return. Congrats I guess?

Well, folks wanted cheaper gas, right?

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Records are meant to be broken. Congrats @booker.senate.gov for stepping up and standing up for the American people. Blazing your own path for the W 👏👏👏👏👏

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Bravo, Booker. Amazing performance.

That asshole blew $24 Million dollars and won't learn a thing.

Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate floor speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

Amali throws herself into bath time, flinging mud with gusto and loving every minute. With Kapei, she’s one of two orphans to come directly to our Umani Springs Unit, where both have fully embraced their second chance at life. You can adopt Amali: swt.bio/amali #SundayFunday

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Trump is going to do or say something crazy to throw Americans off this Signal disaster. Do NOT take the bait he tosses out. Stay on Signalgate.

The lying and the staggering incompetence around this is astounding. And dangerous.

More than this, it became a foundation for the New Deal. A silver lining that the great Frances Perkins, one day to be Roosevelt's Secretary of Labor, was in Washington Square watching in horror as young women jumped to their deaths.

Let it begin.

Let Bobby coach interim while we do a decent search and scour the earth for the next great Stanford coach. It’s Andrew Luck’s program now. Let’s lean into this legacy from the get. Let’s go win this. #GoStanford

No bottom. None, ever. Nothing to stop this free fall. The republic is now trash.

Well, they lied. Obviously.

The war-plans thing is bad, but I think it's far less of a scandal than lawlessly decimating USAID, CFPB, NSF/NIH, etc. It would have been a terrible tragedy if US servicemembers had been harmed due to their leaders' miserable opsec. But what those mfs have done to USAID alone will kill many more.

Q&A with Stanford GM Andrew Luck: Part II (Premium Content)… bit.ly/42c2q3U #Stanford #ACCFB

Not clear what the consequences of the second report were, but the simple fact that there had to be a second report seems pretty damning. #Stanford has to be and do better. Not what I was hoping would be Andrew Luck's first big move as GM, but I don't see how Taylor returns.

Feel like it took a little too long and didn't happen for the right reasons (media exposure vs. getting the internal report and acting), but at least Andrew Luck has started to right the ship. Not sure any ideal candidates are available at this stage, but better than where we were. #GoStanford

Unreal. We spent how many years talking about Hilary‘s private email server that included state secrets like “should we order crème brûlée?”and this is NOT a huge mistake?On behalf of any competent national security worker past & present, these people should lose their jobs and probably be in jail.

A proposal to severely limit guns that use detachable magazines is approaching final passage in the Colorado legislature. The state's Democratic governor, Jared Polis, is expected to sign it into law.

There's no gaslighting your way out of this.
