The whole push for this came from a dark money group formed in March. Big victory for tech companies selling overpriced bags, abusive & lecherous security staff, and school shooters. What I get as a parent is an unfunded mandate for my local school board and daily fears about Uvalde. Gee, thanks.

Starting next school year, a bell-to-bell cell phone ban will take effect in every single Pennsylvania classroom. We’re getting back to the basics and keeping our classrooms focused on learning.

Donald Trump raped children and adults

Adam Keiper@adamkeiper.com

Evidence "shows that Trump lied about kicking Epstein out of his Mar-a-Lago club," according to a new report from the House Judiciary Dem staff. The report also reveals for the first time Beatrice Keul's account of allegedly having been raped by Trump. democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Good win. We're going to have to run the table with these lawsuits, which will come fast and thick as we approach the election and for weeks after.

Trump on DC: "Nobody wanted to eat out. They were afraid. Even if you were in the restaurant, people would walk in and like the Wild West, 'Hold it up!' Everybody is standing there. Can you imagine? A fancy restaurant. They were robbing the whole restaurant. It's crazy."

People talk about Bluesky users "being in a bubble" like it's a bad thing but the more I think about it the more I kinda like it? A protective bubble I could deploy for me and my friends sounds great. I wouldn't want to be in it all the time though, maybe if it had a 10 second cooldown and 650 HP?

This is important to remember Democrats can hold hearings and issue subpoenas, but actually changing the law will be nearly impossible, even if we capture both chambers of Congress However, they can do a lot to pursue accountability for actions this regime has taken

Project Salt Box@projectsaltbox.com

We get asked a lot: “What happens if there’s a blue wave in November?” The answer is not a lot. This money is already law. Taking it back would require a new law, and President Trump can veto it. Overriding a veto takes two-thirds of both chambers. Even if Democrats sweep, they won't have it.

This is scary, and my heart goes out to everyone affected in SW England "A secret “reasonable worst-case scenario” was drawn up, anticipating that several reservoirs’ water stocks could fall to 0 per cent — dubbed “day zero” — within weeks"

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who spared a thought for my country today, who amplified information about the coup d’état attempt, and worried about Brazil’s democratic future—the world’s democratic future. We won! Women won! The Amazon won! Young people won! Democracy won! Hope won!
