From the Dems House Judiciary report:

Very excited to see @rudytheelder.bsky.social on Bluesky - huge fan of all his work. If you haven't read 'The Ware Tetralogy', you should! Also highly recommend 'Frek and the Elixir' to younger readers new to the sci-fi genre. Old school website here: www.rudyrucker.com

I have done deep dives on 7 of the 8 divisions so far that include strengths, weaknesses, predictions, and more! You can find them all here: www.theringer.com/creator/shei...

If you have Eagles preseason tickets that you are not using, email marketing@independencebigs.org. They will put them to good use and find a Philly kid/Big Brother or Big Sister who want to attend. Same goes for any tickets to any Philadelphia sporting event!

Wow. The Trump regime is now effectively telling Americans: don't read the actual agreement. A U.S. official says the MOU should be viewed as a vague "political document," and says "people shouldn't read too much into the language" when the text is released.

So what network is going to hire all the ex-60 minutes people and launch '3600 seconds'?

Back to back…

A good read from an author whose career I follow closely

"Tis better to make the playoffs and lose badly than not make the playoffs at all" - Shakespeare, probably, if he were a Jets fan #NFL

So if these bozos can just change names and put up signs illegally, so can anyone else, right? Asking for a friend... #signofthetimes #signsign #everywhereasign

Especially today, in the face of immense loss and amid the rising tide of antisemitism, the Jewish light must shine brighter than ever. The world must stand in solidarity with the Jewish community and take a clear, unwavering stand against antisemitism.

Uri Monson, PA budget czar + Gov Shapiro confidant, is new chief at $80 billion PSERS school pension. The pair fired Wall Street managers at much smaller Montgomery County PA fund in 2013. My story: www.inquirer.com/business/pse...

EVERY DAY THAT HAMAS REMAINS IN POWER, IT IS CLEANSING GAZA OF ITS OPPONENTS. REMOVE HAMAS NOW!

A Lower Merion synagogue invited an Overbrook church to use its space for worship after a fire. What began as a logistical favor became a lasting cycle of interfaith support.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

It’s time to start talking about the Giants the way we talk about the Jets. This has been a decade-long disaster. (Messed up Dart’s draft round, but points still stand!). youtu.be/jeoedQimiBs?...

hi Bluesky! 🦋 i’ve been chosen as the new head of product here at Bluesky HQ! and i couldn’t be more excited to hack with this incredibly talented team on making this site better for everyone.

The truth: Anas Al-Sharif was a Hamas terrorist leader who disguised himself as a journalist for the Al Jazeera network. When will the international press stop taking Hamas at its word and start doing the most basic task of journalism — verifying facts?

Shlomi Ziv, whose courage in speaking out shines a light on the dark reality of Hamas’ brutality. His testimony exposes the hypocrisy of those who hide behind titles like “journalist” and “doctor” while participating in the inhumane captivity of innocent people.

Congratulations to @helenubinas.bsky.social on a great run @inquirer.com and the Philly Daily News, and moving on to a building a great, important foundation! www.inquirer.com/opinion/hele...

Just when you thought it couldn't possibly get any worse.

Just realized this season of Trump is the Black Mirror version of West Wing @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com

Jameis, Russ, Jaxson Dart, and Cutlets is the most hilarious QB room in NFL history.

10-15% of all MLB players are using the Torpedo Bats, but I only see complaints about the Yankees using them. Give me a break. Also, GO GO Cory Booker! He isn't up there reading the encyclopedia; he's speaking the truths everyone should listen to.

Once again, Amnesty International has issued a slanderous attack on Israel that amounts to a blood libel against the Jewish state. All people of goodwill should reject Amnesty’s morally obscene accusations and stand with Israel.

One of the nicest experiences at the Penn Cancer Center is waiting in the lobby for my car. Anyone who enjoys playing the piano can do so in the lobby, usually soothing and calming music that alleviates stress after a challenging procedure, test, or visit. BTW - still testing cancer free!

With a fully remote team of just 20 employees, Bluesky has surpassed 20 million users in its first year since opening to the public and is stealing thunder from rivals hundreds of times its size. At a time when conventional wisdom among bosses is that workers must be in-person to be productive.
