The people who have to insure our homes and cars know that climate change is real, because it affects their bottom line. It's not that regulating emissions is bad for business; it's just bad for a small number of industries that happen to be very powerful.

"Israel has officially removed any collective existence of Palestinians in the West Bank, administrative or political, from its legal framework. ... The cabinet decisions are in line with Israel's stated goal of destroying the idea of a Palestinian state."

A racist tweet by Elon Musk: For a country to survive, there has to be a common culture. Nobody dies to defend a "multicultural economic zone!" American culture, with its English-Scootts-Irish origin, is great and worth fighting for. Some may not realize it, but that's why people come here.

My English-Scots-Irish ancestors didn't die for multiculturalism; they killed for it. Killed Confederates who said shit exactly like this.

This Is Your Brain On Uber This week we feature Keith Chen, a behavioral economist at UCLA and the head of economic research at Uber. Keith explains why surge pricing makes us nuts and discusses our weird economic choices.

(6/11) Uber tracks battery life. Former exec Keith Chen noted in 2016 that users with low battery are statistically more likely to accept surge pricing. Uber says it doesn’t use that data to set prices, but the correlation remains a point of regulatory scrutiny. www.npr.org/transcripts/...

America's liberal democracy isn’t safe until the Republican party abandons its illiberal project and returns to being a healthy institution.

Maryland health officials warn providers about an upsurge in mumps cases Maryland health officials are warning about an uptick in cases of mumps.

"..cases of flu reached their highest levels in the United States in 25 years... 22 million reported cases, 280,000 hospitalizations, and 12,000 deaths..." (60 in kids). Kennedy's HHS reacted with nonchalance, chaos, and active sabotage.

If we would reach a degree of civilization higher and grander than any yet attained, we should welcome to our ample continent all the nations, kindreds, tongues and peoples, and as fast as they learn our language and comprehend the duties of citizenship, we should incorporate them into the American body politic. The outspread wings of the American eagle are broad enough to shelter all who are likely to come.
