A win! A federal judge in Washington issued a longer-term injunction, blocking the Trump administration from removing or damaging any more trees on the grounds of East Potomac Golf Links.

More importantly, oil takes longer to extract as stockpiles dwindle, and we are already beyond our capacity to quickly respond to an emergency *right now*

I remember the comedian Mike Birbiglia once saying that people should have an on-deck circle for the ideas in their head. You take some practice swings, maybe decide to not say anything. Smoltz has no mental on-deck circle.

Periodic reminder that the media loudly demanded DETAILED POLICY PLANS (TM) from Kamala Harris while gramps over here is just riffing on asses from behind the seal of the President of the United States. Just a daily embarrassment but this is gold for the media 🙄

Trump says he examined Jon Husted’s ass to groans but then says Nikki Minaj has a nice ass to cheers

I don’t really associate myself with any strand of Christianity anymore but I spent a good amount of time in a explicitly pro gay pro agnostic etc UMC church. Adam Hamilton saying this shit when the UMC denomination is literally trans-affirming should infuriate us all regardless of faith

Erin Reed@erininthemorning.com

Adam Hamilton, dem candidate for Kansas Sen., declares tonight at the debate against Roger Marshal that "there are two genders" and that he "doesn't want biological men, boys, competing against" his daughter because "that could harm her and its not a fair fight." He does condemn bullying, though.🤷‍♀️

Pretty dangerous to have a former US President just up and confirming that foreign dictators don’t have to follow Cheesecake Factory’s carefully established branding guidelines.

Canada is moving away from Elon Musk’s Starlink, committing roughly $5 billion to Telesat and expanding satellite partnerships with Europe, South Korea and Norway. Carney cited Ukraine’s Starshield restrictions as a warning against relying on one provider.

No #caturday for us and our furbabies…we’re in #chicago for a few concerts and saw some of the Obamas campus. Lovely and appropriate art. #vote #obamalibrary

Don’t believe this. Vote. The pollsters have been really wrong before.

The Cook Political Report@cookpolitical.com

Today, we moved another 19 House races in Democrats’ direction. Following this latest round of ratings changes, Democrats now are favored outright in the 218 seats they need to win control of the House.

Pastor Vickie reposted

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?

Pastor Vickie reposted

Again: don’t get complacent. Polls look great, but polls don’t vote. Ignore this shit and vote like we’re down by 3%

So, a Trump supporter told me that, “nobody gives a sh*t” about Indigenous Peoples Day. Please, tell me, do you care about Indigenous Peoples Day?

Today is National Coming Out Day! 🌈❤️ A day to celebrate the courage it takes to live authentically, and to remind everyone that coming out is a personal journey. There's no right time or right way to do it before you're ready. Here's to being yourself, whatever that looks like for you! 🏳️‍🌈

I note how Christian Nationalists, who think the public execution of Jesus was the most horrific thing humans ever did, are giddy at the prospect of getting to watch a public execution on live streaming—being so “pro-life” and all . . .
