Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. โฌ‡๏ธ

Getting a late start at Pine Knob. Reading about BTCS at the gorge. Rest up. Weโ€™re all looking forward to 2026!

Based on her profile, Iโ€™d say Michigan. ;-)

@kare11.bsky.social Seems like an event worth covering, no?

This. โ€ฆ Dems, please keep making this argument, but do it without mentioning Russia. Russia is a good analogy, but folks will dismiss the broader argument if you mention Russia.

Thank you. I spent a lot of time after the 2020 election refuting similar claims from the other side.

What Tim said. What happened was bad enough. No need to embellish.

The reaction over on Muskโ€™s site is of course blaming everyone but Trump, but the more the impacts are shared and highlighted eventually it has to get through, right?

@mcuban.bsky.social More stuff like this for transparency you mean? Yeah he got the interest wrong (itโ€™s probably more like $3k/month) but it still highlights a basic breach of contract thanks to the current administration. Also, I went to high school with Tom. The popcorn is indeed good.

I believe this post has been debunked as fake.

Great advice. It was too cold out for a run (at least for me) but the elliptical worked well. No music. No streaming. Felt much better.

I donโ€™t think Trump is the one that got played, though. His supporters will accept his claim of victory without question.

Currently second, but thereโ€™s still quite a bit of season to go!

Take a break from your regularly scheduled doomscrolling and marvel at this clip. A jawdropping feat of editing by Questlove - incredible!

@mcuban.bsky.social I donโ€™t blame them either. Would you consider the increased importance on money/wealth to be a symptom of inequality. Seems as clear as day to me that those would be linked, but maybe not to others.

Is there a way in Bluesky to set up a private group? Iโ€™m thinking like fan club groups and local give/barter groups or whatever.

Why did MAGA Granny reject 'felon' Donald Trumpโ€™s pardon for her role in Jan 6 Capitol riots - The Economic Times Pamela Hemphill, a 71-year-old retired counsellor from Idaho, has rejected a pardon from President Trump for her involvement in the January 6 Capitol riot. Hemphill, who served 60 days in prison, beli...

Sometimes *rejecting* a pardon can be an acknowledgment of guilt. โ€ฆ and this case Iโ€™d say thatโ€™s a good thing:
