Airplanes should negotiate right of way like God intended: by bidding cryptocurrency on airspace while flying directly at each other at 500 miles per hour

It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

No internet? No problem. Just like border-free travel across the EU, staying connected has never been easier, thanks to the #WiFi4EU app and EU roaming. Stay connected to what matters, wherever your travels take you. ☀️ Find out more: europa.eu/!rmqyhT

Berman: Was the President right about the polling? Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome. Love, Allison

I don't think most Americans realize how hard tariffs are about to hit them. The combination of 1) escalating tariffs, 2) companies slowly passing the cost to consumers, and 3) the repeal of the de minimis exemption in the Big Beautiful Bill, a lot stuff will be more expensive in 2027.

Pet peeve, the people that run into your arm/shoulder when they walk through the aisle on an airplane Why? How? Are you driving a tank? Are you a pregnant elephant cow in a hairless ape costume? #travel

BREAKING via NYT: The Times found another admiring note Donald Trump wrote to Jeffrey Epstein. “To Jeff — You are the greatest!” reads an inscription in a copy of Mr. Trump’s book “Trump: The Art of the Comeback” that belonged to Mr. Epstein. (link in reply)

Our beautiful president has taxed the poor, sent troops to stomp through playgrounds in California, opened up concentration camps, doubled the price of seemingly random goods for no discernible reason, and bombed a foreign country just to do it. And yet these ungrateful peasants are unhappy?

In a less imperfect world, Musk and Trump would be forever cast as killers of children, and this would be front-page news for months and the subject of Sunday sermons in every church.

News Eye@newseye.bsky.social

NEW: The death shadow cast by Musk. “When U.S.-supported soup kitchens were forced to close, babies starved quietly, their mothers said, while older siblings died begging for food.” The world’s richest man did this to the world’s poorest children. Don’t ever forget.

“Independence day is canceled because of fear of secret police raids” is really a level of on the nose political symbolism you just can’t make up.

Steve Herman@newsguy.bsky.social

LA Times - Several communities in Los Angeles County have called off or postponed their previously scheduled Independence Day and July events, citing resident safety amid ongoing immigration enforcement raids.

I hate that whenever the US CPSC posts important safety messages, I wonder how long until the republican death cult fires all of them and hands fireworks to everyone with a printed RFK quote "I launched this from my head last week and I'm fine"

People die doing this every year. Never launch fireworks off your body.

🚨🚨 US TRADE DEFICIT SURGES The Commerce Department's Census Bureau on Thursday reported that the international trade in goods increased by about 11 percent in May as exports decreased while imports remained relatively unchanged — a sign that Trump's tariff strategy has been a colossal failure.

there is a material difference between "creating a new UI component in the theme of an existing library is 50% faster with the use of generative AI coding tools", and "engineers using AI are 50% more productive overall" -- but it's hard to spot that mistake when you're trying to publish A Number.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.
