If Trump bombs power plants in Iran, the humanitarian crisis will be horrific. Experts tell me to expect water shortages, closed hospitals, many deaths. “We’ve never had a US president so proudly promise to commit war crimes," Sen Chris Murphy says. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2087...
We’re so cooked.

That is an ICE agent pepper spraying a restrained victim in the face at close quarters; it's an unquestionable and indefensibly abusive use of excessive force that should (but won't) be criminally prosecuted as assault

Ahh, okay, so one of the federal agencies will not be challenging the merger. Good to know. @nmdoj.bsky.social, care to use your Clayton Act authority and step up to protect competition in the film industry?

This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

This is right, but I'd add that #1 is only unclear because of a pretty perverse line of authority that doesn't need to be that way.
The problem is, there are two key questions here: 1. Was the use of force legally justified? 2. Was Ms. Good a "domestic terrorist" who tried to run him down, as the VP and the entire Trump admin is claiming? The answer to 1 isn't entirely clear. The answer to 2 is pretty decisively no.

BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.
Give it a couple weeks and Andrew Ferguson and the other FTC folks will be fabricating a coordinated advertiser boycott
Major advertisers appeared to sit out a new CBS News town hall telecast Saturday, moderated by Bari Weiss and featuring an interview with Erika Kirk. Lack of Madison Avenue support could challenge the viability of the format, which Weiss wants to expand variety.com/2025/tv/news...
Just an unbelievably stupid comment. Even if you buy into the framing of demand, it has an essentially vertical demand curve. People will become homeless before they stop “consuming” healthcare because that is a rational choice! Because the alternative is *dying*!
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

You have to have an extremely low level of empathy and compassion to become a billionaire in the first place (can’t get there without exploiting many people). But to then have the resources to legitimately treat people like commodities you control… it must genuinely deteriorate your humanity.
For example, bones need resistance to maintain density. They demineralize quickly once resistance stops — a problem in zero gravity space. When people stop exercising, their hips start to break. Humans aren't made for zero resistance. Guys who can buy *anything* are doing this to their BRAINS.

Yeah, I know the voting is in the ABQ, and Zozobra is a Santa Fe spirit, but Zo hates all New Mexicans. I thought about using Ron Bell instead.

A massive flaw with the Tunney Act is that it only applies to settlements after a merger challenge has been filed.
TL;DR: Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos reportedly discussed the company's $82.7 billion deal to acquire Warner Bros. with President Trump, raising questions about federal regulatory approval amid competition from Paramount.

it cannot be said enough, and should be shouted from the rooftops: this is a fake legal issue that's been backstopped by on-demand scholarship from academics who are part of the same project as the conservative justices. the "authority" they will cite is no better than citing AI slop.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court agrees to take up a challenge to President Trump's January 20 birthright citizenship executive order. The court will hear DOJ's appeal of a loss below in a class-action challenge brought in the wake of June's decision limiting universal injunctions.

Yeah. Before the fall, CK's act—and his fandom—rested on the premise that his worst self wasn't his true self. Now it's the opposite, and that's just not interesting as comedy.
He is just generally an alt-right, unrepentantly racist and transphobic piece of shit. He is also a genuinely bad comedian, much in the way that thin-skinned assholes often are 🤷♀️ www.gq.com/story/louis-...
You (dumb): Consumer protection laws should protect people from inherently dangerous products and companies that are deceptive in their businesses. Me (brain-genius): Ah, yes, but have you considered that people may engage in contracts??

i think tech and ai positive people are going to be in for a big shock when anti tech and anti ai sentiment becomes a major part of leftwing politics going forward especially as datacenters continue to destroy communities and raise electricity bills
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?
