Life in America is about to get a lot harder on all fronts. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. I take solace in my gardens, pollinators, birds and animals. ๐Ÿ’™

(Reuters) - Europe's Airbus broke a major commercial barrier on Tuesday when its A320 family of planes overtook the Boeing 737 to become the most-delivered jetliner in history.

It reminds me when I accidentally bought Broadcast instead of Broadcom and made a lot of money. Cuban was an unknown. ๐Ÿ˜‚

The world sees the chaos, incompetence, lawlessness, bloodlust and abject cruelty in the US, 100% Trump and MAGA to blame and they can see this wonโ€™t end well.

The data center angst feels like a leading indicator of a broader economic development question about if the public will ever support high-value industrial activity that:
-uses a lot of power
-doesnโ€™t create many jobs

Because that seems like the future of manufacturing.

That was a big part of the success of the civil rights protests. Seeing the protestors sprayed with fire hoses and bitten police dogs made the Movement much more real and sympathetic to more people.

Weโ€™re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

I know it's tiresome to play the "imagine if the parties were reversed" game, but thinking about how Republicans (and right-wing media) would be reacting if a Democratic-controlled House was refusing to swear in a newly elected *Republican* member may be the apotheosis of this particular meme.

'They Need to Suffer': Inside Trump's War on Dissent Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, and the rest of the administration are waging a furious crackdown on dissent following Charlie Kirk's assassination.

After Charlie Kirkโ€™s murder, Trump expanded his war on free speech, the left, and ordinary Americans. Itโ€™s going to get worse. He must be stopped.

A rewatch of Judgement at Nuremberg will show how an Authoritarian takeover requires complicit police, prosecutors and most of all, judges.

If Sally Yates had been the AG during Bidenโ€™s presidency, we wouldnโ€™t be dealing with any of this shit now. She would have made sure that Trump was arrested and tried in a timely manner for his crimes, which is exactly why Republicans wouldnโ€™t have confirmed her.

I imagine that these MAGA lawyers who followed Trumpโ€™s orders will be tainted for the rest of their careers. No respectable law firm should hire those who do Trumpโ€s illegal bidding.

Yeah, I just underestimated the extent to which Dems would sell out their own base and capitulate to them on the basis that maybe 2.3 of them might be a persuadable swing voter

Democrat accuses Mike Johnson of โ€˜suspiciousโ€™ delay of swearing-in to avoid Epstein vote Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva, D-Ariz., told MSNBC sheโ€™s not a โ€œconspiracy theoristโ€ but said she couldnโ€™t come up with another explanation for the delay.

Still waiting for Speaker Mike Johnson to allow the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, who was elected 2 weeks ago. Grijalvaโ€™s vote could pave the way for House action on releasing the Epstein files โ€“ which Johnson opposes. In his version of Christianity, they cover up for child sex predators.

So great for helping our families and local businesses. But I guess we will always have AI to remember what life used to be before the MAGA crackup.

Scoop: White House memo says furloughed federal workers aren't entitled to backpay A move to deny backpay to up to 750,000 furloughed workers would dramatically escalate Trump's pressure on Democrats to end the shutdown.

It's so incredible how low homicide rates are in Europe. The UK, with a population of 70 million people, had fewer than 600 murders in 2023.
