Jacob Frey: "If we are now at the point where the federal govt is deploying agents on legal American citizens with a goal of uprooting people who have formed lives here, have families here, started businesses here, definitively made Minneapolis a better place, everybody should be speaking out."

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

Lots of news coverage this morning about Β£28 billion investment approved to upgrade the UK's energy network.

BUT: The majority of the spending – Β£17.8 billion - announced today is to maintain Britain’s gas networks rather than build new transmission lines.

A Death Row Inmate Was Released on Bail After His Conviction Was Overturned. Louisiana Still Wants to Execute Him. Months after a judge tossed out his 1998 murder conviction, Jimmie Duncan is free on bail. But prosecutors have asked the Louisiana Supreme Court to reinstate the death penalty for Duncan, even as the...

NEW: Jimmie Duncan spent 27 years on death row, convicted in part based on evidence experts now consider to be junk science.

But even after the overturning of his murder conviction and his release on bail, Louisiana still wants to execute him.

Scutari's effort to destroy the comptroller's office hurts NJ | Opinion Trenton leaders β€” including Senate President Nick Scutari β€” are too focused on settling political scores. New Jersey can't afford that attitude.

Corruption is costing you.

We have to take down corrupt systems that are making it harder for you to live your life. I'll stand up to anyone and fight for you to make that happen.

Check out my op-ed from today on what's truly at stake in this fight.

So far, in less than one year, Donald Trump has issued over TEN TIMES as many pardons as he did in his entire four-year first term. That’s a lot of criminals released onto our streets.

A U.S. envoy coached a senior Russian official on how to influence an American president into embracing a plan that advantaged an aggressor and weakened an ally fighting for its survival as a sovereign state.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?

That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

Somehow this is the worst part.

Yet again I'd like to thank the publishing industry, Hollywood, and Yale Law School for ensuring this bigot's rise to prominence.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

As Michigan communities push back on a rush of data-center proposals threatening to strain ecosystems, many residents feel they have little protection. But as
@kdavidsonjrn.bsky.social reports, while some protections exist, there are big gaps around water use, transparency and environmental impact.
