So pretty!

Wind swept Puget Sound. Beautiful day other than the wind.

Puget Sound. Tide is in. Perfect sailing day I suppose.

20 miles w 3100 ft ascent #running yesterday. Crisis of the soul at 17 miles when I thought this is only half way point of my upcoming race. I’m sure it’s why they don’t issue refunds. My iPod died for the last hr (soooo many hrs it takes me) so just my annoying thoughts with me to the end.

And most of MAGA is totally okay with this.

They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a “weapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.

Seven Billion Reasons for Facebook to Abandon its Face Recognition Plans Meta’s analysis that it can avoid scrutiny by releasing a privacy invasive product during a time of political crisis is craven and morally bankrupt. It is also dead wrong.

META'S FACE SCAN PLANS: NYT reported internal docs say Meta may add face recognition technology to its smart glasses "during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns." 👀

Thank you! @aoc.bsky.social explains how to stop a concentration camp from being built where you live. Take note!

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

Puget sounds at low tide

10.4 miles #running with 2200 total climb. Rain and breezy throughout. Had too much wine with friends last night and this workout felt like a punishment.

Labor Secretary’s Husband Barred From the Department After Sexual Assault Reports

BREAKING NYT:

The husband of Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has been barred from the department's headquarters after at least two female staff members told officials that he had sexually assaulted them, according to people familiar with the decision and a police report obtained by The Times.

On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed E.O. 9066, authorizing the forced relocation & incarceration of more than 125,000 Japanese Americans, solely because of their heritage.

Holy shit.

A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

Well! Hot damn. 🔥🔥🔥

You in trouble, girls. 💥💣💥

My King; Jack gonna get yah!

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

CBS pulling @jamestalarico.bsky.social’s interview from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is alarming and nothing short of censorship. Full breakdown on my Substack page (link below).

Mia Valentina Paz Faria A 7-year-old from Venezuela who was living in Austin, Texas Detained for 70 days “I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

UPDATE: Staff at the ICE concentration camp in Dilley, Texas have begun raiding the dormitories of kids and their parents to confiscate and destroy letters from the children. This is in response to the ace reporting by @micarosenberg et al for ProPublica:

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.”

- 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas.

Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children.

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, “Obama: Dems need to avoid scolding and ‘virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

This week at Democracy Docket: The worst voter suppression bill ever passed, and an FBI raid built on conspiracy theories When the U.S. House passed the SAVE Act last year, historians told us it was Congress' worst attack on voting rights ever. Well, this week the House approved an even worse one.

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

Birds floating on smooth water

15 mile long #run #running. At one point the crows were going bonkers. They were high up in the trees and seemed to be following me and throwing bits of moss down on my head.

I have nothing to back this hunch up but a desperate need for it to be true: Old French Guy could be Ludovic Pommeret. #bm100

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG:

“I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.”

The ad aged. The internet remembers.

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte

TEXAS — A father shoots and kills his British daughter LUCY HARRISON who was visiting… after arguing about Trump’s sexual assault allegations… and no charges?

Because he says he was just showing her his gun and it went off? 🤔 local12.com/news/nation-...
