By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.
But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

This video makes me physically ill and furious. I also want to know...what the question that Senator Padilla was trying to ask Kristi Noem? Something about 6 criminals???

Join the Trump Community. Own a Piece of Trump. This is History in the Making!
I'm speechless over how bizarre the online invitation to the Trump Memecoin competition/dinner is. You have to see it, and what's with the weird AI photos of Trump?

E.P.A. Targets Dozens of Environmental Rules as It Reframes Its Purpose
Lee Zeldin, the E.P.A. administrator, said the agencyβs mission was to make it cheaper to buy cars, heat homes and run businesses.
Someone tell Lee Zeldin that the EPA is not the Chamber of Commerce. Insanity, dangerous, unsustainable, criminal.

A line graph showing atmospheric CO2 levels at Mauna Loa Observatory from 1955 to 2025. The y-axis represents CO2 mole fraction in parts per million (ppm), ranging from 320 to 420 ppm, while the x-axis is years.
The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the COβ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii.
@noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

Repeal IRAβs Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax $222 billion 10-year in costs VIABILITY: HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on adjusted financial statement income for corporations. This option would repeal the IRA's corporate AMT.
Hereβs another $222 billion handout to huge, profitable corporations. Odds are, the corporations will turn a lot of these handouts into stock buybacks for the benefit of wealthy shareholders and executives:

Killing The IRA's Tax Credit Is a Big Win For China
The IRA's $7,500 is designed to incentivize U.S. EV supply chain investment. Without it, it's not clear if our EV supply chain will get off the ground.
The Inflation Reduction Act's $7,500 EV tax credit is incentivizing U.S. EV supply chain investment, and that's by design. Killing it, as Trump is contemplating, would be a big gift for China.
