A headline or excerpt that makes you want to read/watch more isnโ€™t โ€œclickbait.โ€

Itโ€™s good presentation. A compelling headline or preview.

Clickbait is false or misleading.

Not the same thing as something true & presented well that captures your interest and makes you want to read/watch more.

The stories we tell matter. I know this not from watching but from memory. I was just a child, held behind barbed wire in a U.S. internment camp, when an atomic bomb obliterated Hiroshimaโ€”killing members of my family.

People on bikes in a protected bike-lane in downtown Vancouver.

Never forget, when youโ€™re being asked to prove that safe bike-lanes or pedestrian crossings across currently unsafe conditions are โ€˜needed,โ€™ it's hard to justify a bridge by the number of people swimming across a raging river.

Not to mention the fact that a soda is sometimes, inexplicably, less expensive than a water. If they have to look for a public water fountain when they're thirsty instead, they'll shrivel up from dehydration because those things are few and far between these days.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

Please understand that if you air even a single ICE ad on your program, on your podcast, on your stream, you will never, for the rest of your mortal life, receive another dollar or another second of attention from me, or from millions of others.

I promise you, it is financial suicide.

Not sure what Acosta intended but it might have been better accomplished by actually interviewing the parents rather than an autocorrect robot on steroids.

Sugarcane burning is a plague on these Black Floridians โ€œI like to call it 'structured' racism.โ€

Today I learned that when sugarcane farmers burn their fields, a โ€œblack snowโ€ falls for months on communities downwind. Under FL law, burns are prohibited when the wind is blowing into wealthy, white neighborhoods. Theyโ€™re only allowed when itโ€™s blowing into poor, majority black areas.

Odd, I was told money was so tight here in the US that we have no money for healthcare or food for our citizens, or to help people starving to death overseas.

We are neither a serious nor a responsible nation.

Opinion | Our President Is Economically Illiterate

Steve Rattner:
"Being economically illiterate ranks, in my mind, just below not being able to read or write.
Now we have a president who is fundamentally ignorant of the most basic and incontrovertible economic principles..."

On Tuesday morning, Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced in an internal email that it would offer cash bonuses to agents for deporting people quickly, an incentive meant to motivate the staff to speed up President Trumpโ€™s mass deportation campaign.
Less than four hours later, the agency abruptly canceled what was supposed to be a 30-day pilot program.
โ€œPLEASE DISREGARD,โ€ Liana J. Castano, an official in ICEโ€™s field operations division, said in a follow-up email to agency offices around the country.

๐ŸšจWHOA. According to @haleaziz.bsky.social, the Trump admin was actually going to implement the ICE "bounties" it has repeatedly said were false, offering $200 per arrest leading to a rapid deportation โ€” and only walked the plan back after the New York Times got a copy of the memo.

Texas AG Ken Paxton fled home with his wife to avoid subpoena in abortion case, court filing says Paxton was subpoenaed to testify in a civil lawsuit from Texas-based nonprofits that want to resume helping pregnant residents obtain out-of-state abortions.

Ken Paxton really hates people who shirk duty & responsibility.
Also, his accomplice at the time Mrs Paxton is now suing him for divorce for โ€œBiblicalโ€ ๐Ÿ˜ณ reasons.

Trump Wanted To Arrest 3,000 Immigrants A Day. He Didn't Realize 1 Very Important Thing. Itโ€™s wild to watch this administration experience the limitations of its own narratives about โ€œthe enemy.โ€

The backtracking on this 3K-a-day quota might boil down to the reality that there arenโ€™t nearly as many undocumented criminals as the administration had hoped. ICE has resorted to arresting people who are leaving immigration courts, some of whom
