IF the pause was always part of Trump's plan, and IF insiders made money on today's swing, would that not be strong evidence of insider trading?

Who thinks that at least some of this tariff chaos is market manipulation?

The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office requested today that the Supreme Court ends a ban on the Taliban’s activities in the country.

Pete Hegseth Blows Into Breathalyzer To Unlock Phone

Democrats hold trifectas in 15 states with 123 million people and powerful economic engines. That’s leverage—if we use it.

Meanwhile, @wired.com "will no longer put articles that primarily use public records obtained by FOIA behind its paywall." From Reliable Sources: view.newsletters.cnn.com/messages/174...

This was Trump's text message during the Super Bowl.

Anyone else having issues with links not operating in #Bluesky posts today?

Alarms were raised about ‘congested’ airspace before fatal Washington crash

As the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wisely said, "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." Today and every day, I pledge to never silence my voice in the fight for what is right, and I will continue to march in the path he forged toward justice.

I'd like to see DOGE cut costs by doing the inauguration on Zoom this year...

GOP senators need to consider that Hegseth is going to have to sit at tables with his counterparts from all over the world and be capable of holding his own in a conversation. He won't be able to do that. We need a SecDef who leads the conversation, and doesn't have to google words to keep up.

Derrick Rose has had one helluva retirement rollout in Chicago this week. He gave out flowers to thousands of fans at Rose’s Flower Shop, launched a new garden pollination initiative in his native Englewood and played his last basketball game with his son at Simeon. thetriibe.com/2025/01/whil...

God i love @propublica.org so much

In those marble halls, I hugged L.W. and her family and told them, with the most sincerity I’ve ever spoken, thank you, before heading off to the press seating. Casey Parks spent the day with the family at SCOTUS. I’m so proud of this kid and her family for fighting. Read Casey’s story.
