Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

Becoming a U.S. citizen takes years and involves immigrants acquiring a green card, extensive interviews, background checks, classes and a citizenship test. The naturalization ceremony is the final step to the process, where the oath of allegiance and a citizenship certificate are granted.
Immigrants approved to be naturalized went to Faneuil Hall Thursday - known as the country's cradle of liberty - for that long-awaited moment to pledge allegiance to the United States. But instead, as they lined up, some were told by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials that they couldn't proceed due to their countries of origin.

The Resonant Computing Manifesto
Technology should bring out the best in humanity, not the worst—a manifesto for resonant computing built on five principles that reject hyper-scale extraction for human flourishing.
Remember when the internet wasn't awful? We can go back to that.
Some friends and I have released the Resonant Computing Manifesto: a call to bring back such a time, to see if we can bring back a world where technology works for us, rather than against us.

We saw tech execs project forward from lockdown induced online behavior for hiring decisions, and then act like nobody could have predicted it was a bubble. I’m beginning to think they’re not that smart.

Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn, stands with arms crossed and a calm, confident smile, wearing a black blazer over a red top, shoulder-length silver-gray hair, and wire-rimmed glasses. Behind her is a blurred, vibrant red-and-orange abstract backdrop. A pioneering woman in STEM who reshaped our understanding of aging and DNA.
Biochemist Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn was born #OTD in 1948.
She shared the 2009 #Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of the enzyme telomerase & how chromosomes are protected by telomeres. This has 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘶𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 implications for the fields of #aging and #cancer research. #WomenInSTEM

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

Top MAGA Influencers Accidentally Unmasked as Foreign Actors
A new feature on Elon Musk’s X has given deeper insight into the online “America First” movement.
It’s hilarious that any account exclusively posting “America First” content on X is actually Russian, Indian or Nigerian not American.
It’s all just grifters manipulating the gullible to support the biggest grifter of them all, Donald J Trump.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.
The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

We’re scientists who study sex and gender. Here’s what Trump gets wrong about trans people
OPINION: Despite what President Trump would have you believe, transgender people are a natural part of the human species, Joan Roughgarden and Jaimie Veale write.
For so long, they said gays & lesbians were freaks who must be suppressed & converted. They lost that fight.
Now they’re saying the same about trans people.
Like gays & lesbians, trans people have been in all societies forever. They’re part of the natural order. Deal with it.

I’m announcing new legislation to allow people to sue federal agents & officials for damages when they violate people’s rights under the U.S. Constitution.
SB 747 strengthens California’s core civil rights law — the Bane Act — & makes clear it applies to federal officers/agents. 🧵

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.
I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

For thirty years I worked in the post-Soviet successor states in Central Asia and observed over and over again precisely the cycle that Bill Kristol describes. Corruption leads to authoritarianism, directly. The path is utterly predictable.

The Founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three separate times. Two emoluments clauses ban officials—unambiguously including the president—from accepting things of value, plus bribery is the only named impeachable offense besides treason.
Unprecedentedly corrupt.
