Garcia’s indictment might or might not be legit, but his impending return to the U.S. would be a triumph for law over autocratic rule and would prove that Trump and his goons were lying when they claimed they couldn’t facilitate his return to American soil. abcnews.go.com/US/mistakenl...

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

This is huge, especially making this decision without a permanent exec director. But, the finances are the finances. Hopefully, everyone realizes that assocs are what we make them. My beloved SLA is working on a merger to avoid dissolution. It's a painful time in libraries for many reasons.

DEAN: Did your department have any worry about the president growing his own business while on the job? LUTNICK: My trip to the Middle East was extraordinary. It was amazing. DEAN: I'm sure. I'm asking you, did the question of conflict of interest come up? LUTNICK: No DEAN: It is grotesque

Medicaid is NOT just for poor people. It is for EVERYBODY. Every residency program in America is funded by Medicaid. Hospitals are NONPROFITS. They receive funding from Medicaid & Medicare. If you live in a small town, you’re fucked especially because guess what upholds rural healthcare? Medicaid.

Trump has nothing on his public schedule again today..... maybe after the report that he's taking classified intelligence briefings only about once a week and all the bullshit back and forth with tariffs, Susie Wiles decided to take the senile grandpa off the board. Who's working the autopen now?

This feels like the downstream effect of several different things: the way we taught reading to Gen Z, the way fun reading is rarely a thing in school anymore, them growing up with devices as the default, young adults not learning how to parent from older community members, etc.
