So the president says the bombing won't stop until the country the Speaker of the House says we're not at war with surrenders unconditionally.

I can think of some Wall Street investors who might be more interested this year.
I'd be interested in a ZLS analysis of AI

Such an important story: ProPublica went inside the immigrant detention center for families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the U.S. and the fear of what comes next.

Ian McKellen performs βThe Strangersβ Caseβ speech from βSir Thomas Moreβ on Colbert.
They move fast and break everything... building something? Not so much.
Less time fussing with logistics may seem like a minor point, but I can't count the number of meetings I've been in that burn 10-15 minutes trying to get tech to work properly and then a few more minutes wrangling wandering attention and hushing side-conversations.
Here's my full 50-page indictment of CBP and ICE and decades of corruption, abuse of force, racism, and misogyny. I promise you β however bad you've ever thought it was, the full reality is even worse, deadlier, and more corrupt. This isn't a "Trump only" phenomenon:
Hey @murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov do not let me hear one more word about βguardrailsβ or βtrainingβ for this disgusting criminal enterprise
I hope this well-reported but sickening story, is widely shared and motivates people in office at all levels of government to do more now, not in November but right now with whatever they can bring to bear.

Refusing to fix it is very much an action.
Because the serious media decided some time ago that conducting a serious discussion about the president's mental health, informed by experts, simply cannot happen because of some "rule" from the last century, we are left with futile "bonkers" comments and late night comedy.
"We are saying that we have no specific scientific knowledge of genetic reasons that one child performs better than another, and we donβt appear especially close to discovering any."
This reporter deserves better than the "next gig" to continue this excellent and essential work.
I fought the good fight for years and had the upper hand (paw) for maybe two months, but at least one of them accepted the challenge, dared greatly with acrobatic leaps from the fence, and I conceded. It's still mostly out of reach for most of them, so I tip my cap to the victor.
