We checked DHS’s videos of chaos and protests. Here’s what they leave out. Official videos purporting to show the triumph of recent immigration operations used footage that was months old or recorded thousands of miles away, a Washington Post analysis found.

Did they not think the videos would be fact checked? Oops, they used videos from other states and years. LOL www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Was it created by A.I.?

The last of the Seattle area blackberries are still edible. Watch out for fermented ones, of course. There are also some slightly red cherry and pear tomatoes to be had if you trim your plants to find them. Chives & arugula are getting more spicy so warn people if you give them some for salads. (^:

Yet another double standard for Kristi. #lame

Remember when, several years ago? 🧪 #USA#Trump

Agreed. A few weeks ago, I was near by hammering nails for 2 hours and I started to passive aggressive comment on people around me and I had to leave the area. I don't know how construction workers deal with the exposure as ear plugs only block out so much of the noise.

Democracy Docket: DOJ sues six states, escalating campaign to seize private voter data…

Found this compelling summary someone put together, bet we could turn this into a multi-edition novel of failures…

I've been to 11 countries so far and Costa Rica and Scotland were the best overall. Probably time to visit a few more before my body can't take the long flights. Knees hit the seat in front of me. Thanks airlines for being evil and greedy. Best airline so far is Asiana. Just amazing!

Is it similar to a walnut tree making walnuts on the ground? They stop sitting on the eggs and they rot so why not eat them before they rot? Hens have the freedom to go back to the wild and sometimes they do leave the yard forever. If they stay, then is it consent?

Trump team’s contentious climate report ‘makes a mockery of science’, experts say Over 85 top climate specialists lambasted administration’s review, calling it a ‘shoddy mess’ that downplays risks

Again, this is more proof than any science data coming out of our govt agencies WILL BE FULL OF MISINFORMATION.

185 climate scientists say that the report downplays the risks of the climate crisis. It is full of errors & fails basic scientific credibility.

Planning to go to the state fair on Saturday. Lots of indoor art, collections, and animals to see if it rains in the afternoon. Long drive and I hope not much traffic at 10am. I guess I should read up on the fair rules of outside food and drink at the gates. (^:

What if you keep a chicken coop in the backyard and you keep the hens as pets after they stop giving eggs ?

🚨MAJOR LIE: Trump claims that Obama & Comey “made up” the Epstein files.

FACT CHECK: The first federal Epstein probe was under George W. Bush.
The second was July 2019 UNDER TRUMP.

Obama had ZERO to do with it. Share to expose Trump’s lies!

Meanwhile, do you have any questions about our research? We argue there's a similar pattern of secularization unfolding at different times around the world.

Yet another reminder that in an aspiring authoritarian government, you should never rely on online document as definitive sources.

Elevated shallow water salinity in the deglacial Indian Ocean was sourced from the deep - Nature Geoscience Increased salinity of Subantarctic Mode Water during the initial phase of the Last Deglaciation could have enhanced deep water formation in the North Atlantic, according to proxy records from a sedime...

🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨

We reconstructed past ocean salinity in one of the largest Subantarctic Mode Water production centers on the planet: the southeast Indian Ocean. We found a rapid increase in SAMW salinity during the Last Deglaciation.

Where did this salt come from? We argue the deep ocean. 🧪🌊
