Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

Sourcing the dispute to Padilla even when the video proves Padilla is right is an explicit endorsement of the White House's credibility by a news organization

I hope this is just inaccurate and not a lie. @democrats.senate.gov have held the floor since 14:42 (an hour ago) talking about what happened to @padilla.senate.gov. You can want more but they immediately jumped and have not yet stopped. Attn: @owillis.bsky.social www.c-span.org/event/us-sen...

This is what Trump's government thugs are willing to do in broad daylight, to a US Senator, with cameras on. They are sending the message that anyone who disagrees with Trump isn't safe in America. This is authoritarianism.

In the Senate right now, @democrats.senate.gov have taken to the floor to talk about what Sec. Noem's thugs did to @padilla.senate.gov. This is what we expect from our elected representatives--I say as someone who's never had a senator--and I praise them for it. I hope they continue.

I wish whenever Democrats did the boilerplate "Of course I believe that violent or destructive protesters should be arrested," they'd add, "Unlike our president who pardons them if they are beating on cops for him."

Another prominent Democrat Pam Bondi arrested w/o presenting to a GJ. Especially egregious here given that complaint just guesses what David Huerta is communicating on his phone. This is literally, "he was texting on his phone so entered into a conspiracy." www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

As you ponder the likely consequences of the new steel tariffs, it's worth asking: A. How long does it take to build a steel mill? B. How long do you expect Trump's new 50% steel tariff to last? If A>B, then how can you expect any lasting gains from these tariffs?

imagine if you were this kid, too. Imagine if the utility people showed up and you let them into the house and then they kidnapped your mom. Imagine fucking living with that. These guys are absolute monsters.
