Thank the Milwaukee US Attorney’s Office for being among the first to happily follow the directive to pursue a politically-motivated prosecution.

Some important new government policy that Native Americans might be interested in:

This story from @nickbowlin.bsky.social does as good a job as any journalism I've read of explaining how utilities have largely captured their regulators, and why that dynamic is driving skyrocketing utility bills. harpers.org/archive/2026...

Wauwatosa, WI — 175 years ago today Solomon Juneau and other Milwaukee leaders arrive after the first train trip ever taken in Wisconsin. It took 12 minutes, which is faster than it takes today to drive between the two cities. There is currently no commuter rail option.

Few more powerful experiences than joining thousands of voices taunting Draymond Green and begging the refs to T him up.

Americans raced to buy any EV they could get their hands on before the federal tax credit expired last month — except for Tesla's Cybertruck. Here's @andrewmoseman.bsky.social on how the ultimate bromobile became Tesla's Edsel:

I almost can't believe that Elon Musk's AI called for the extermination of the Jewish people yesterday, and today not a single Congressional Democrat announced they were leaving his media network. A party that often claims to act against antisemitism didn't do jack shit about straight up Nazism.

Elon Musk casually, and illegally, dismantled USAID. According to a new study in the Lancet, that action will lead to *14 million* premature deaths between 2025 and 2030. Again: Elon Musk is directly responsible for 14 million coming deaths. 4.5 million will be children.

Children who are poisoned with lead or at risk for lead poisoning should not bear the burden of a haphazard ‘restructuring plan.' RFK Jr. must IMMEDIATLEY restore the CDC's Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Branch and answer MPS' request for assistance. See more

The Trump administration has put more than 100,000 federal employees on paid administrative leave, costing taxpayers billions. Ironically, this expensive move has been carried out in the name of “government efficiency,” as engineered by Musk’s controversial DOGE operation. peer.org/more-than-1...

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

Hamdan Ballal, who won an Oscar for "No Other Land" about Palestinians under Israeli occupation, was attacked by Israeli settlers and later detained by the Israeli military, witnesses tell NPR.

Would you want to be represented by a law firm that can't even stand up for itself? a law firm that might sell you out to the federal government to save its own skin?

Thinking about heading to the United States?

A 4-year-old boy died from Ebola in Uganda on Monday, according to a State Department cable viewed by The New York Times. His death comes as the Trump administration has canceled at least four of the five contracts with organizations that helped manage the outbreak in the country.

Tomorrow was supposed to be the last day of work for government employees who opted into DOGE's "Fork in the Road" deferred resignation offer. Today, some of them received this email saying, NOPE.

Awful news --> Delivery of therapeutic food assistance to nearly 400,000 severely malnourished kids abroad is suddenly in doubt due to Trump-Musk firings at USAID, two manufacturers of the product tell me. "Starving children are waiting," one says. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1919...

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️
