This is absolutely shocking if true. A government's treatment of its most vulnerable citizens is a key indicator of its humanity and the strength of its social fabric. Enough is enough

“The Baldwins” purports to pull back the curtain and reveal the real life that happens behind the scrim of scandal and celebrity. What it truly offers is unsettling, forced cheer.

Rather than bunker down, Sanders is in the arena, communicating that he is a fighter, that he’s not cowed, and that he’s willing to take on Trump and his kleptocratic regime.

This is exactly what I have been saying for a while now. At this point, it’s not left vs right that matters, but fighters vs non-fighters. The Dems, and the American people, need fighters.

Morning Bluesky. Canada is ditching plans to buy 88 F-35A fighter jets from the US because of Trump. The order was worth $19 billion. Defence Minister Bill Blair says they’re now actively seeking replacements.

Why did Trump repeat Russian propaganda and lie about this? Why would he claim that a Ukrainian army in Kursk could only be saved from annihilation if Putin benevolently agreed to Trump’s request not to do so? Why is the US President deceiving Americans with Russian lies?

Senator John Fetterman, you are as useless as Sinema and Manchin, in fact I've read you're being referred to as John Fettersinemanchin and that seems MORE appropriate. We helped elect you & you LIED, you met with the Orange Cheetoh at his Florida home, when NO Democratic went near there. We're done.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

“Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair.” Whatever happened to #abolishICE? It needs to be abolished. This is torture.

This appears to be correct. A margin call happens when the stock used to secure a loan loses too much value. If Tesla falls below ~$246, Musk may have to add cash or sell shares to cover his debt. If he can’t, lenders can sell his stock for him.

What I find extraordinary about this rhetoric is that universities are—as far as I can tell—considerably less left wing than they were fifty years ago, and spend a lot more time trying to justify their curricula in terms of helping you get a job.

Ugh. Some of my old friends and former colleagues were working on this. What possible justification could there be for this (rhetorical)?
