Hilarious how ridiculously accurate that was this week!
Over half of U.S. states have passed a form of an online age verification law.
These laws pose a unique threat of outing transgender people or blocking them from the internet entirely, especially in places where they are unable to access accurate IDs.
We all deserve anonymity and privacy online.
Lawyer: You don't regret that people might have lost income?
Cavanaugh (DOGE): No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit from two trillion dollars to close to zero.
Lawyer: Did you reduce the federal deficit?
Cavanaugh: No, we didn't.
Holding the World Cup or Olympics in a nation where Trump is president would be a global failure.

The FBI strongly defended this program two years ago, mainly by citing a bunch of internal reforms and oversight measures it had put in place. Patel has now gotten rid of that.
This is the essence of capitalism and its most basic tenet. It's what places capitalism in direct opposition to environmentalism, humanitarianism, and the basic idea that technology is meant to improve everyone's health and safety rather than enhance stockholder returns.

Trump appointee Jonathan Berry—a Chrisofascist misogynist, current Department of Labor Solicitor, and the architect of Project 2025’s “labor” section—is trying to destroy OSHA from the inside jordanbarab.com/confinedspac...
Remember when Trump “joked” about canceling elections during a war? It’s not a joke anymore. With the war in Iran escalating, the administration is moving to nationalize our elections and block millions of votes.
If you restructure the Pentagon so that the only legal voices at the table are there to validate “lethality,” commanders will be left alone with unlawful‑order dilemmas and no independent JAG in the room to say, “This crosses the line.”

NEW: A sharp warning in an ordinary news release: "President Trump’s Justice Department.”
Attorney General Pam Bondi has made clear since day one her view that DOJ's lawyers are "his lawyers." On Thursday, DOJ went further, claiming it's "Trump's Justice Department."

After Cornyn and Paxton were forced into a runoff, I said we should watch just how far Senator Cornyn is willing to put his head up trump's ass for his endorsement. Now he's flipping on the filibuster to pass the SAVE Act and disenfranchise millions of voters. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...
Shocker! ACIP member Ponytail Levi has authored misleading research.
A former Ministry of Health official said of him:
“It was clear he didn’t understand how the data were collected or how they could be misinterpreted. More troubling: he didn’t seem to care.”

I'm starting to think if I say "ICE has not left Minnesota" (which of course is true!) I should also say "ICE has not left Chicago" and "ICE has not left LA" because I think the point is that ICE wants to occupy a lot of places at this scale so that it just becomes reality, it's not just Minnesota.

This is called kidnapping and it’s a crime. Abolish ICE
Iowa farmer: This fertilizer shortage is going to affect everybody. It could lead to a decrease in yields. If you look at that countrywide, corn, soybeans, cotton, rice, that will increase prices. It's gonna be a train wreck for consumers.

I spent the last week writing up this essay on what it means to be trans in this moment. What it means to live under authoritarianism as the scapegoated minority of the moment and how it feels inescapable as an infinite loop.

Yep. Seen it happening in the film industry, too.
the president of the united states just said he found out the country he started a war with had boats sometime after he started that war
This is happening in many industries. I work in film and have seen job listings on film industry sites recruiting AI trainers. The film industry has been down for several years, with a lot of people out of work. AI companies are vultures.
