The President says this war could last four weeks.

Is this like when he said we would see his health care plan in two weeks?

Was it on the Southside of town? My son works at the Shakespeare Tavern, and a lot of staff, patrons, and volunteers were super late. Some needed over an hour to do what's usually 10 or 15 minutes

Democrats refused to fund DHS because federal agents were shooting U.S. citizens.

No accountability? No check.

Cashless Bail Helps Keep Families Together. Trump Wants to Shut It Down. As the president escalates his federal takeover of D.C., his latest efforts target a system held up as a model since 1992.

Criminal justice advocates warn that President Donald Trump’s executive orders aimed at ending cashless bail policies will disproportionately impact low-income communities.

β€˜Andor’ Creator Tony Gilroy Gives the Interview He Couldn’t During Its Release While promoting his cautionary tale about fascism, Disney asked Gilroy to refrain from using the word. Nine months after it aired its finale, the 'Star Wars' series feels scarily prescient.

A gentle reminder that DEI was never about hiring and promoting underqualified Black people. It was about preventing underqualified white people from sliding through.

DEI is antidiscrimination law. If you oppose DEI, you want racial discrimination to go unpunished except as applied to white men.

By striking down Trump's tariffs, SCOTUS has finally found some backbone. Kavanaugh's dissent warns the decision will cause a "mess." Too bad he doesn't see that this Court's pro-Trump rulings already made a huge "mess." We must clean house in November so the cleanup can begin.

Slavery and our treatment of Native Americans is the USA's original sin -- a sin that has consequences for generations. I do not know how to do reparations, but I agree they are right, good, and necessary.

Per the article, β€œMarietta police spokesperson Chuck McPhilamy said the agency entered into a 287(g) agreement with ICE because it was required to do so under state law.”

However, HB 1105 only requires they *seek* such an agreement. It does not require them to *sign* such an agreement.

From Utah to Texas to Georgia, local governments have sought to block massive ICE detention facilities. But with limited legal authority, city and state officials have turned to the court of public opinion to deter private developers and the federal government. Story from @stateline.org.

Subsidized healthcare for all, no questions/barriers to entry. Health insurance cos abolished; healthcare co profits are locked in step w median employee pay. so things cost…p close to what they actually cost, & no exclusions. & illegal to deny reproductive or gender affirming care to any patient.

Above the Waterline: Chattahoochee Riverkeeper’s decades-long fight for clean water paysΒ off I reached my diamond jubilee earlier this year: a three-quarter-century birthday that hit me harder than I expected. The frightening state of our country and the world was (and continues to be) a significant factor in my angst – joining the unavoidable old-age aches and pains and memory lapses. Even so, I’m proud to have reached this milestone in basic good health (knock on wood) and with family, projects, and travel that keep me interested and busy.Β  Like most people my age, I’m also reflecting on the past; well, the parts I can still remember.

No corporation should be allowed to profit from caging people with our tax dollars. It’s time to cut any funding for this cruelty especially when our hospitals are shutting down and schools lack critical funding.

A day ago the EPA officially rejected the science on global warming.

Beyond "oh, that happened" I won't read about it. I won't silently evaluate the coverage of it, as I often do. This item is going into the "too stupid, too important to be that stupid, and too painful" bucket. Do you ever do that?
