I wonder what the Polymarket odds are on Markwayne Mullin getting in a fistfight during his confirmation hearings?

I do appreciate how, as a mob boss would, Trump never lets anyone leave his administration; he moves them to humiliating jobs where he can keep tabs on them (since he technically can't whack them)

Graph showing that policies blocking ICE access to jails have kept immigration arrest rates lower in some states.

Graph showing that policies blocking ICE access to jails have kept immigration arrest rates lower in some states.

What's the difference between states like Florida, where ICE arrests are sky-high, and states like Illinois with much lower rates of arrests? It's all about police & jails.

Arrest rates out of homes, workplaces, etc are similar – but reining in sheriffs makes all the difference.

And she's out, not even an hour later.

Trump is presenting Mullin's appointment as automatic, but he still has to go through Senate confirmation hearings like everyone else. They're usually deferential to their colleagues, but I think this guy for this post in this election year might prompt issues

Thanks for looking, Mark, just the curse of being a transplanted fan...I did go visit the arena and the Dirk statue when I visited Dallas this Summer...I do wish that someday, they would create some of these special opportunities for the people who are serious fans but do not live in Texas

If the government gets to decide if you have them, they're not human rights.

Pay no attention to the torture and rape and murder administration in the room.

ICO writes to Meta over 'concerning' AI smart glasses report Videos, including of glasses-wearers using the toilet or having sex, are sometimes reviewed by a Kenya-based subcontractor.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, β€œI do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

So India invited an unarmed Iranian boat to joint exercises, exercises the US was invited to, and a US sub blew them up?

Am I getting that right?

Just brutality

I can only assume they were too lost in macho hubris to pay attention to how Ukraine has humbled Russia?

The reason why our stockpiles are seriously depleted is not because of Joe Biden. It is because the Iran War is the SEVENTH bombing campaign by Trump in the past year. And that doesn’t count the Venezuelan boats. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Donald Trump increases the defense budget last year from $874 billion to $1 trillion. He says he wants $1.5 trillion this year. Now he wants $50 billion more for his Iran War. Every Democrat should be screaming about the military budget, not cutting deals to keep raising it.

Again

The decline in violent crime and homicide started THREE YEARS AGO, is nation-wide, and likely has NOTHING to do with local policies

The decline in 2023 was the biggest drop in history
The decline in 2024 was the biggest drop in history
The decline in 2025 was the biggest drop in history

I don't have a problem with Tim. But I do think it is deleterious that so many smart people spend so much time on X, which has essentially become an algorithmically and AI-optimized far-right MAGA message testing and propaganda machine. People assume X posts represent the masses, but they don't!
