ICYMI — @TimSheehyMT, the senator involved in the breaking of a Marine’s arm who was there to protest the war, appeared in an AIPAC ad and went to Israel as his “first act” as senator after getting elected
(Per @trackaipac.com they have spent $650,000 on him)
Thank you Bluesky for helping me raise nearly $6,000 (!!) for @hofoco.org today! 😭❤️😭❤️ fundraisers.hakuapp.com/fundraisers/...
Disgustingly, this are our military commanders:
Trump now blocking terror threat warnings because it makes him look bad.
“They don’t want anything getting out that says what they’re doing in Iran is raising the threat level at home.”

Yes!
University of Mississippi Annual Gifts Officer Angela Atkins testified that no university policy prohibits political posts on social media and that Boyce’s public email announcing Stokes’ firing was “absolutely unheard of” in her experience with campus terminations.
Estefany Rodriguez was covering immigration arrests the day before her detainment Wednesday, a petition filed by her lawyers for her release stated.

How “secret” could it have been? The character was only 10 years old
Every state should follow Rhode Island’s lead and fully expose the scope of clergy abuse so survivors can finally be heard.
It’s long past time for congregation members to stop supporting an institution that has protected abusers.

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.
That was fast. 🙄 keep the pressure on.
This is the regime Trump has been coddling in its efforts to take over another country.
As a man past that point, the comedy came through loud and clear for me

Via @retrosheet.bsky.social, Leon Day pitched a 1-hitter against the Baltimore Elite Giants on July 24, 1942. He fanned EIGHTEEN. They were not slouches. This is the lineup he did it against. 😳

Many of these medical emergencies could have been prevented if children detained at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center had been given adequate care.
Kids don't belong in ICE detention.
Neither the hypocrisy nor the observation of it is new, but I just keep thinking that it's "America First" when it comes to funding USAID's efforts to help people or helping Ukraine, but when it comes to killing innocent civilians abroad, oh, we ALWAYS have the money for that.
I think LLMs have uses, but "1,000 targets, including a girls elementary school we hit twice with precision munitions" is indeed representative of their state-of-the-art—and likely a fundamental limitation of the technology.
Sometimes sloppiness is okay; sometimes it's 160 dead children.
NEW: ProPublica is releasing a trove of disclosure records that detail the finances of more than 1,500 Trump appointees, including former lobbyists, industry executives and at least a dozen officials who declined to identify former clients.

NEW: Use our database to explore the financial disclosures of President Donald Trump and more than 1,500 of his appointees.
A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflict—and 9000
miles from North America—makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...
Senator Tim Sheehy and Capitol Police ganged up on anti-war protestor Brian McGinnis, a Marine veteran, and reportedly broke his arm.
This is how they treat our service members?
Reprehensible.
"Men older than me spat on me in public,” Lauren Stokes said, recalling the days after the University of Mississippi fired her for sharing a post calling Charlie Kirk racist.
A chill fell over campus as faculty grew fearful of sharing their views on anything, colleagues testified in federal court.
We sent 4 records requests to the Education Department — the first more than a year ago — seeking the status of school investigations, findings of discrimination reversed under Trump and more.
The agency gave no response except to acknowledge it received them.
If this isn’t one of the biggest stories of the day, then it should be.
Americans are stranded in the Middle East because of Donald Trump’s war in Iran, but they’re flying out MAGA “influencers” on private jets?
