Thank you sir for taking the time to care about the tragic events that killed and critically injured our brave Canadian military personnel in Wainwright Alberta at a time when your country is being bombed 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇦
Stephen Miller’s podcaster wife had to double back after overplaying her hand.
Katie Miller quickly deleted a post on X gloating over the ICE raid on Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Washington, D.C., home on Monday, (cont.)

Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today:
"A major cyberattack targeting commercial refrigeration systems across France ... Rather than shutting systems off, the attackers remotely reprogrammed cooling regulators to force a continuous defrost cycle, driving internal temperatures up to 50C (122F)."
"What Metro Surge showed the world is that people do not want to watch their neighbors be brutalized, shot, and torn from their homes, and no amount of Trump posting on Truth Social is ever going to change that"
"The Russians have provided Iran with intelligence, ammunition, and explosives...Trump’s response is to beg Putin to accept money for a few thousand barrels of diesel. This is the most stunning display of submission and weakness from an American president ever."

The Buffalo Bill Wild West Show was still going strong in 1901—until a tragic train accident killed almost all of its star horses, badly injured one of its famous performers, & changed the course of American entertainment. That & more in today’s post! 🗃️ @hcrichardson.bsky.social
So for the next post in my Trains! blog series, three takeaways from one of the most brutal commercial train accidents in American history.

If you‘ve studied history, you know what Trump and his fellow fascists are doing in Minnesota. They’re calling Somali Americans “garbage” and “enemy combatants“ because fascists need to create enemies and foment hate to excite their sick supporters.
Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"
Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) ran this ad when he was running for US Senate in 2004 as a Democrat.
The ad touted his support for free college tuition.
Note how Kennedy's accent is much less animated.

The Trump administration is still ripping migrant families apart — now, with a quieter tactic. It is a deception that hinges upon one word: “unaccompanied”
Samuel Alito: We won't overturn Obergefell because it's engendered reliance interests.
Jan Crawford: Well, many people had organized their lives around Roe v. Wade.
Alito: No, they didn't. Women merely had an "abstract" interest in "ideas about the kind of society that they were going to live in."
I think this is the best shirt design I've done all year

Important new video telling the #UrbanTruth about city streets we should never have accepted as “normal,” by our UTC collaborator @reenamahajan.bsky.social in Paris.
Please watch and share. We don’t have to keep these streets.
directed at the protected animal to qualify as an illegal take. For example, if you bulldoze over protected burrowing owls, but your reason for bulldozing wasn’t to kill the owls, their deaths would not necessarily constitute a prohibited take under this interpretation.
Asked who would win in a hypothetical war between Canada and the U.S., Malcolm Gladwell tells @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social that Canada would prevail “because all of the American troops invade Canada, and then realize that they want to stay.”

“You wanna know what it feels like to be a truck driver in Trump’s America? There ya go… it just keeps going up and up and up and up… I’m out here to make money for my family, I can’t just eat that cost.” #Trumpflation 🚚⛽️😳
Sheriff Witt is desperately trying to distance herself from the white supremacy within Hennepin County Sheriff's Office, but
1) No civilian would have the time to perfectly place that sticker in such a crowded area.
2) We've already seen HCSO *proudly* displaying MAGA hats in their squad cars.
James Talarico @jamestalarico.bsky.social is simply 1 of the greatest, most inspirational candidates to emerge in years, running against Ken Paxton, one of the most disgracefully corrupt politicians of all-time. So the Texas GOP responds by doing what comes naturally to them, of course: CHEATING! 🤮
In July, a new ICE agent with a history of domestic violence and mental illness killed a man in Maine who even ICE admits posed no threat to him.
Now we know that internal whistleblowers at ICE were sounding the alarm about the agency utterly disregarding normal hiring rules.
SCOOP: An ICE whistleblower report obtained by the NYT said ICE was cutting corners, violating the law and fast-tracking unqualified, “improperly vetted” candidates into ICE’s ranks, part of a dangerous move that exposed the agency to “grave national security risks.”

As I predicted when Ukraine began striking Russian refineries, Trump is going to blame Ukraine for gas prices & begin to pressure them to stop doing it. Once again, the US will side with Putin against a country fighting for its survival. We’re morally bankrupt under Trump. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Bessent blames Ukraine for high gas prices: "Ukraine has decided that they want to blow up Russian energy assets and refined products, so that is creating upward price pressure on a global basis"
Canada is Wisconsin’s largest trading partner.
Not only is Trump’s trade war hurting our farmers and manufacturers, but this entire trade policy disaster is damaging our relationship, leaving America weaker and more vulnerable.
Regulators have linked Mark McAfee’s raw dairy farm to more than a dozen recalls and outbreaks that left hundreds of people ill.
“I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital,” McAfee said. “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer.”

A year ago, just 42% of Americans opposed a data center being built in their community.
Today, a staggering 75% do.
Are data centers really that bad? Let’s take a look.
I read an article this morning that said “we are mourning in future tense” and that hit hard. Watching everything happen around us in real time is hard enough, but knowing that it’s going to be a long road to hopefully put it all back together is even harder.
"The USS Abraham Lincoln wasn’t able to be resupplied because the U.S. Navy’s main resupply base in the Gulf of Oman was destroyed by Iranian strikes—a fact that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth chose not to make public, said David Rhode [natsec reporter for MS NOW]"

🚨 FOR THOSE WHO MISSED IT
Listen to our exclusive reporting of the dire conditions aboard the USS Lincoln. This is the story the Trump regime does not want people to hear. Make sure to share it.

F- Trump , he is a thief.
After November people will start to lose Medicaid.
People will die from lack of care.
I told my oncologist to keep me alive long enough to see Trump leave office.
If I lose my Medicaid, I will not live to see that day.
Trump inherited one of the strongest economies in the world, yet 33% of Americans still think he inherited a disaster.
The power of right wing propaganda.

The US government now holds equity stakes in 30 private companies, up from zero just over a year ago. In some cases, it's the largest shareholder. This raises massive questions about capital misallocation, government neutrality, and cronyism, says Cato's Scott Lincicome on MS NOW.
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss.
Wyden released a sweeping Senate report alleging several of the largest banks of having “been willing to turn a blind eye” to Epstein’s financial activity.
