๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿšจ๐ŸšจBREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I canโ€™t confirm this but Iโ€™m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

The Unraveling of a Crypto Dream Brock Pierce arrived in Puerto Rico seven years ago, promising to use crypto magic to revitalize the local economy. Now heโ€™s mired in legal disputes and fighting with his business partners.

Hard to believe, and certainly no one could have predicted this, but it turns out all the crypto bros who flocked to Puerto Rico claiming to be its saviors did not in fact make things better for locals www.nytimes.com/2024/08/13/t...

NYT home page: more prominent coverage for "7 Americans React to Sweeping Tariffs" and "A Sticky Miso Salmon Bowl for Busy Weeknights" than for "Anti-Trump Protests in All 50 States"

If "protests in all 50 states" wanted above-the-fold coverage in @nytimes.com, they should have been "seven random Americans" instead

Our next-door neighbor put this sign up on her front terrace today. It feels good to be surrounded by like-minded neighbors. #Wisconsin, don't forget to vote on April 1! ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฒ @wisdems.bsky.social
