During the countless hours of local news coverage yesterday, the anchors went to great lengths to repeat that Boelter was not a "political" person. I think having a list of 70 Democrats you want to assassinate makes you political, but what do I know.

Some grim reading www.politico.eu/article/east...

Google's @hultquist.bsky.social says in an emailed statement that the company is seeing "multiple intrusions in the US" that bear the hallmarks of Scattered Spider activity and "now seeing incidents in the insurance industry."

As climate solutions reporter I find many 'solutions' don't scale- or reduce pollution at all. Which is why after months of reporting I want to tell you about Vienna. Vienna has found a way to make affordable housing and combat climate change, all at the same time. Now U.S. cities want in. 🎧⬇️

My relatives keep asking me how we're doing in the riots. I say, you mean the police riots? Cuz no one else is rioting.

unlike Vietnam or Afghanistan at least the Marines coming to.L.A. know exactly what this fight is all about

The overt totalitarians in the administration are laying the pseudo-intellectual groundwork for large-scale use of military force against civilians.

By now, everyone should know which countries are on the travel ban list. Some of ya'll didn't listen when we told you; especially you Muslims who rejected Kamala. This is Muslim ban 2.0. Oh, and Cubans for Trump: you made the list too. We told you.🔥☕️ www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-t...

Plus this part does not inspire confidence: “The rules of engagement here, we are told, are still being finalized. And defense department lawyers are also looking at the kinds of rules of engagement these Marines will have as they encounter protesters, possibly on the streets of Los Angeles.”
