Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

Secretary Kristi Noem @Sec_Noem Thank you @POTUS Trump for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. @SecRubio and @SecWar are incredible leaders and I look forward to working with them closely to dismantle cartels that have poured drugs into our nation and killed our children and grandchildren. The Western Hemisphere is absolutely critical for U.S. security. In this new role, I will be able to build on the partnerships and national security expertise, I forged over the last 13 months as Secretary of Homeland Security. We have made historic accomplishments at the Department of Homeland Security to make America safe again: we delivered the MOST secure border in American history, 3 million illegal aliens have left the U.S., we have located 145,000 children, FEMA delivered disaster relief at a 100% faster rate, we ushered in the golden age of travel, saved the American taxpayer $13 billion and revitalized the U.S. Coast Guard.

oh my goodness she seems to think Special Envoy for the Shield is a real job

Corey Lewandowski to begin affair with Markwayne Mullin

DHS keeps the fuck plane. Lewandowski stays on it and he has to fuck. Markwayne's problem now.

Screenshot of a FB post by the NHL with a photo of three women in blue USA jerseys and Olympic gold medals, standing next to two male hockey players standing ready to take a faceoff. The caption reads: “Olympic gold medalists Aerin Frankel, Megan Keller and Haley Winn dropped the puck ahead of tonight's game between the New Jersey Devils and Toronto Maple Leafs with Jack Hughes and Auston Matthews taking the draw!”

The amount of ass covering and damage control these women are being asked to do, I swear to god

So now Claude has played a decisive role in two US invasions of foreign countries. And yet I'm expected to invite it into my classroom, in the name of "inevitability." How is this any different than prescribing or prohibiting what textsI teach? What if the college said I had to assign Rambo?

No Help and Few Options for Travelers Stranded by Mideast Conflict

One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.

Another woman said they asked her how to spell Oman.

Moving petroglyphs and bulldozing roads to Native America sites.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

There was a pats receiver the bills really missed this season and it was Mack hollins

First off, I would never use the word “output” for this. We’re not making widgets or pink slime. Second, sure, of course we do. How varies a lot. Personally, I’m moving back to analog/paper as much as I can these days, because volume/speed feel like they’re undermining quality

I have been a professional historian for 20 years and have never had occasion to do even one person’s worth of coding. What on earth would I do with 1000?

Supplemental $$$ bill to pay for WHAT NOW?

Anyone, what's the record since Shane Hollander said the Sabres were terrible?

Colorado friends: call your Governor and tell him NO.

A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.

Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.

Trump helps MAGA influencers flee Middle East war zone on private jet Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz, dogwalker Sarah Daither, former lobbyist Jay Footlik, and others managed to escape on a private plane thanks to the White House.

The White House has helped MAGA influencers escape the Middle East on a private jet while more than a million ordinary Americans are still trapped with no way out.

Ricotta?

THANK HEAVENS

At some point we will have a conversation about the bogus claim that running a financially successful company equips you for leadership more broadly.

My research is on working class women and AI and the ONE consistency among all of the interviews we’ve done so far is concerns about data centers and environmental impact. We do not bring it up - they do. Every single one.

Writing is thinking.

BLUMENTHAL: Is the agent who shot Ms Martinez sill on the job?

NOEM: Our officers conduct operations every day-

B: Is he still on the job carrying a gun?

N: I dunno

B: Would you agree he shouldn't be?

N: I'll get back to you

B: I think Americans would find it absolutely terrifying if he is

Donald Trump is using taxpayer funds to bomb Iran while he jacks up health care costs by thousands of dollars.

Two New Reports Urge ‘Human-Centered’ School AI Adoption Results of two gatherings make case for visionary yet balanced approaches to AI.

Reports from whom is a really important question here.

30 years ago Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club accurately predicted that men under late capitalism, empty consumers who had come to think of themselves as “the middle children of history” with no great wars to fight, would eventually prank and shitpost their way into fascism.

There's a new article in The Conversation about how people not knowing how "AI" works is what makes them open to using it, and how the more they learn about it, the less they want to use it, and the author is like "Hmmm! How can we increase literacy without dampening enthusiasm for adoption??"

I do not believe that more than 2 out of every 5 Americans own an e-bike

I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed.
Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing ‘reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

Does the use of the personas of real people without permission scream ‘class action lawsuit’ to you too?
