I had a realization yesterday that we will never be able to watch live events again without hearing that noise. My boys won’t even remember the before part.

I went back and found the root of this massive trade tree. Who's the root of all of this: Mark Price.

This nearly 40-year-old deal has snowballed into a massive butterfly effect, giving us the likes of Kyrie Irving, Donovan Mitchell, & many more.

Here is the full trade tree.

kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

Members of Congress will be able to view unredacted Epstein files next week Members will be able to review the files on computers at DOJ beginning Monday, according to a letter obtained by NBC News. They can take notes, but cannot have electronic devices.

I'll believe it when they see it, but...

Outside in the evening. An office building with video and the words "Palantir Powers Fascism" projected at top. Below, a crowd of people with signs and candles memorializing people who have died at the hands of ICE.

Happening now in Silicon Valley: marchers have surrounded the Palantir building and are holding a prayer vigil for victims of ICE, while video of ICE and Palantir crimes is projected on the building. #AbolishICE #ICEOut #Palantir #PaloAlto

Trump shares racist video depicting Obama as apes

No pulled punches here. CBS News (yes, that one) refers to Trump's post as 'racist.'

Just another example of how ICE is protecting all of us and keeping us safe, with their armed goons out there literally kicking puppies.

The Secret IRS Files: Trove of Never-Before-Seen Records Reveal How the Wealthiest Avoid Income Tax ProPublica has obtained a vast cache of IRS information showing how billionaires like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Warren Buffett pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, ev...

We found that Jeff Bezos paid *zero* taxes in 2007 and 2011.

In fact, he reported making so little in 2011 that he even claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children.

This is how he did it (published 2021):

#Cavs president Koby Altman: “We talk about Evan [Mobley] as our future. We need to start adding Jaylon Tyson to that conversation.”

In any event, the revival of talking up the SAVE Act, after they'd mostly abandoned it, isn't because they have any delusions of passing it. It needs 60 votes and they don't have 51 to nuke the filibuster for it. It's about the propaganda talking points, to rhetorically delegitimize the elections.

But evidently there was one actual Christian in attendance...

Preach!

Job openings rate just reached its lowest level since spring 2020.

Confession: I want Chinese EVs. They're lapping us in terms of innovation, feature richness and trim quality.

He was hit 3 times in his life by cars. The 3rd time was when I found him.

He is terrified of small spaces like Crates so he couldn't travel anywhere to be adopted.

But then today happened. ❤️

Pinned lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Aug 19, 2021 Almost three years ago, my editor called me early one November morning. A wildfire had sparked near a town called Paradise, he said. Could I go?

Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

After 5 years and 62 failed lawsuits

Trying to extort Georgia election officials

The attempted insurrection

A second impeachment

Multiple criminal investigations

Congressional committees

And EVERY analysis of the 2020 election showed Biden won

Donald Trump is still “looking” for 11,780 votes

Democrats have detailed their demands for immigration enforcement guardrails

The Cavs may never draft again.

#Cavs president Koby Altman has made his first public comments on the James Harden-Darius Garland trade with the Clippers.

And I would point Your Honor to two declarations in a recent filing, which if Your Honor would permit, I could file in a supplement in this case. The first is a petitioner -- is a affidavit written by my client Oscar. And that was filed at Docket 67, The Advocates for Human Rights, et al., v. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, et al., Case Number 26-cv-749. And Oscar's declaration is important for a few reasons. One, it articulates just his horrific experience throughout this proceeding. And it's easy for us to see court orders not being complied with and the e-mails back and forth on the computer, but his affidavit really just shows what it's like to experience that and in ways that were personally for me just sickening to read as his attorney. That he was without food. He was without clean

clothes. He was subject to physical danger, both through reckless driving of ICE agents transporting him from one location to another, watching people screaming in pain with medical neglect, being exposed to COVID. Just the conditions of his confinement; eating food that he conflated with dog food. That people are just being treated like less than human. And all of this was happening while he had a court order for his release. And while all of this is happening, ICE agents are telling him to self-deport because he's got no chance to get out of there other than self-deport, so he's being deprived of access, and this is all in his affidavit. Myself and his immigration attorney, who's here in the courtroom today, were not able to talk to him. His immigration attorney in particular made diligent efforts to ensure compliance with the court order, and these are e-mails that are in Oscar's case. I think you've seen these. We're trying to get ahold of him. We're trying to get access to him. We're trying to bring him home. And, meanwhile, he is sleeping on the floor, if he gets to sleep at all, and he's being lied to, denied access to phone calls to call his loved ones or his attorneys. I would encourage Your Honor to read this declaration, and I would defer to the Court if you would like me to submit it formally in Oscar's own case. And the second declaration also in The Advocates

There's been lots of attention on 1 particular inexperienced & untrained govt lawyer
But I want to give a shout-out to Kira Kelley,
climatedefenseproject.org/profile/kira...,
who focused on ICE's horrific treatment of an immigrant prisoner -- all occurring *after* the court had ordered him released

Heads are going to explode 💥

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

The AI surveillance state is real — and it's being built by Palantir. The Most Dangerous Corporation in America?

Reminder: Palantir sells AI tools that help law enforcement agencies like ICE analyze massive amounts of personal data. It's a big reason why it is quickly becoming the most dangerous corporation in America. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_VwyhErd88
