What the Attorney General of the United States seems to not understand, but the people who matter do, is that Congress hasn’t given DOJ any authority to block states from certifying the election. This isn’t a thing. And we don’t have to pretend it’s a thing just because he says it’s a thing.

🚨🚨🚨 Q: Is there any scenario in which DOJ would try to block states from certifying the election? AG TODD BLANCHE: Yes, of course. It is not DOJ's intention to improperly interfere with elections or the state certification process, but ...

craigunger.substack.com/p/putins-dre... The postwar era is over. The Western alliance that held Russia in check for decades is being dismantled by Trump. What comes next may be Yalta 2.0: Trump, Putin, and Xi, each taking a share of the spoils. @markhertling.bsky.social @garrykasparov.bsky.social

craigunger.substack.comPutin’s Dream Come TrueFor four decades, Trump has argued that America’s allies are freeloaders. Now he’s dismantling the alliance that built American power. As a result, Moscow couldn’t be happier.

Most of these game studios are not closing because they're not PROFITABLE. They're closing because they're not showing GROWTH. The system of investor capitalism is ruining literally everything you care about.

The attack ad against Acton is another in a long list of right-wing gotchas that have blown up in their face -- Eric Schmitt's attack on Jack Smith, the conspiracy that Talarico was in rehab, Tommy's heckling of El-Sayed, etc etc. Their echo chambers keep convincing them to do incredibly dumb shit

El-Sayed: "People like Vance think America is too small for some of us. I think America is big enough. America has been big enough include people whose families came, were here before anybody else showed up, or who were brought here despite themselves. His view of America is small -- small like him"

East Potomac costs $42 to play and hosts thousands of people each year. A lot of the players are beginners. A lot of them don't have that much money. A lot of them are black. This is the course Donald Trump has decided shouldn't exist, and in the past, he's been fairly explicit about why not

"I still do not know how a government form recorded the 'spoken' answers of a man without speech, and at the end of that process, a magistrate judge set bond at $10,000 for a man who could not have asked for a lawyer even if his life depended on it. Which, in a way, it did."

Sure, this perfectly encapsulates our current complete degradation of the concept of professionalism, but beyond that it also represents one of the huge lies of genAI pushers-- the idea that it can be your secret little advantage nobody else ever has to know about. 🧵

The rising costs detailed here apply mostly to mainstream cons. Indie cons are getting out of hand, too. I only attend either if all my costs are paid. But I'm a prima donna, and I don't need con income. If I was still hitting the road trying to make a name, yeah it would tough.
