Farm workers in Arvin CA are hard at work setting up the irrigation system in a vegetable field. This is crucial for maximizing crop yield and quality, by providing consistent moisture directly to roots, which reduces plant stress and helps prevent disease. #WeFeedYou

SCOOP. From my OUR LAND newsletter: Trump's DOJ is helping to get a convicted FBI informant tied to Russian intelligence out of prison. The lie this guy told the FBI—Joe Biden took a $5m bribe from Burisma—was the main evidence for the GOP impeachment drive. 1/2

Trump Keeps Finding New Ways to Withhold Money Even After 198 Lawsuits If the courts force the administration to restore money to one group, it moves on to another.

President Trump has tried to withhold billions of dollars in federal funding to coerce states, punish opponents, remake programs and impose his views. His targets have repeatedly sued to stop him, and the courts have repeatedly rebuked him — only for the president to try again and again.

We have to realize he’s not talking about the average American. When they talk about the economy, they mean their portfolios. When Trump said we’ll make money, he was using the royal we.

To be clear: the SAVE Act does not simply require the identification voting ALREADY requires. It demands proof of CITIZENSHIP— a birth certificate with a name that matches yours now (bye, bye, married women), or a passport— both of which are expensive and take a long time to obtain.

Older Chicagoans at high risk of losing SNAP food assistance as new work rules kick in Able-bodied adults 55 to 64 years old must work or volunteer 80 hours a month by May. Last year, fewer than half had enough work hours.

Thanks to Donald Trump, American seniors will go hungry while the rich get tax breaks.

It’s clear where his priorities lie, and they aren’t with you.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.

A truly extraordinary moment.

We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

Act like it.

This is how we do it. We are a Mac/iPhone family so we’ve had Apple TV’s for a while. Also easy to take on vacation.

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

M.T.A., Not A.T.M.: Transit Chief Backs Hochul’s Auto Insurance Reforms Transit officials said on Friday that the governor’s insurance proposals could save the authority millions of dollars that could be used to improve service.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority said on Friday that auto insurance changes that Gov. Kathy Hochul is seeking could save the agency nearly $50 million a year in car-crash litigation — money that could help pay for better bus and subway service.

So, um, what exactly are they saying here? Because if it's what it sounds like, it's pretty much contrary to everything I was taught about the American ethos.

A quote card by Scott Galloway that says: "Americans are fed up, not just with the depravity of some people in the Epstein class, but also with the massive wealth they continue to accumulate while the working class struggles."

We don’t need a revolution,,, We need a functioning IRS, capital gains taxed as income, and the death of the carried-interest loophole. bit.ly/4blFkfo
