So when your dad says β€œhis grandparents came here legally,” what he really means is they just showed up. No visas. No green cards. No paperwork. Just a boat and white skin.

Today’s migrants do more, prove more, and get mistreated.

Senate Republicans’ Climate-Wrecking Corn Ethanol Payout This version of the Big Beautiful Bill would hand vast subsidies to a toxic industry, all while gutting wind, solar, and green hydrogen.

Meanwhile, on the Big Beautiful Bill, @ryanlcooper.com points out that the one big area where energy tax credits are actually expanded is in ethanol and biofuels, which is demonstrably worse for climate change and a horrible use of land:

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

The biggest trial in Meta's history starts Monday. Here's what to know The government plans to call Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg to the witness stand. The trial is expected to run nearly two months in a federal courtroom in Washington.

I didn’t understand why facebook suddenly reversed course, allowed DJT to return to facebook and Zuckerberg attended the inauguration. Now I understand. www.npr.org/2025/04/13/n...
