Wonderful pic. What's the logic of cutting the tree off down the trunk on the right border? I kind of like it but not sure why.

23 year old Ruben Ray Martinez’s last words? β€œI’m sorry sir”.

ICE shot him 3 times and killed him.

Renee Good’s last words? β€œIt’s ok I’m not mad”.

Alex Pretti’s last words? β€œAre you ok?”

These are the people DHS calls domestic terrorists. Threats. Aggressors.

Abolish ICE

Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.

Gas prices skyrocketing.

Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.

Another war in the Middle East.

Are we great again yet?

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.

Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.

We live in Orwellian times.

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

BREAKING on MS NOW:

The House Oversight Committee just voted to subpoena Pam Bondi as part of the panel's Epstein investigation.

The vote was 24-19. 5 Republicans voted in favor.

A navy torpedo detonates under the target, lifts it out of the water and cracks the hull. The people who aren’t thrown overboard by the blast are knocked unconscious and buried alive in their compartments when the ship sinks. We did that to 141 people today for no reason.

Opinion | I Worked for Block. Its A.I. Job Cuts Aren’t What They Seem.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

Whiskey Pete is a piece of work. This press conference is appalling. I turned it off.

Musk, worth $829 billion, owns X.

Bezos, worth $234 billion, owns The Washington Post & Twitch.

Zuckerberg, worth $231 billion, owns Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp.

And now Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, is about to control CNN, CBS, TikTok & HBO.

Yes, this is oligarchy.

Just finished. Wonderful and highly recommend. Bertino's writing style is quick and punchy and story generally moves at a good pace. The characters were well developed. The speculative aspect of the plot was compelling and a good anchor for what happened throughout.

What to read next?

Chris Murphy: β€œHe's the most corrupt president in the history of our nation β€” This is a disaster. It is illegal. And the president is obligated under the Constitution to come to Congress & ask for an authorization of military force”

Here’s a radical idea for Congress: abolish ICE, dismantle DHS, then take that ICE/CBP BBB slush fund and rebuild our national security apparatus, joint terrorism task force, and alphabet agencies as independent entities. We’re going to need them again. Trump won’t sign it, but let’s write it.

Yeah but I'm in the camp of giving them the best chance to succeed with a real team, not a bunch of prospects. Or letting Pujols get some experience somewhere else so if he fails his image isn't tarnished. Molina on the other hand would be great and would be my vote post Marmol, whenever that is.

Glass half full version is to have consistency through a very likely lock out. Who thats qualified would take this job with a stripped down team and disruption pending. If the owners ever actually reinvest and try to compete then maybe they pay up for a talented manager in a couple of years.

I applaude Claude (get it?) and am debating paying for Anthropic's AI over others in support of their decision not to bend.

At the same, funding the acceleration of any of these technologies seems like a bad idea in general, not that my $20 a month is going to change the future.

CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.

Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.

What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.
