In a new post, the company now says “we hope to ship in 2026” — a vaguer timeline than the first half of 2026 goal Valve shared last month — which it attributes to the ongoing shortages of memory and storage chips.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Florence ICE detainee dead after untreated tooth infection, official says An ICE detainee, who had been at a Florence detention center for four months, died Monday following an untreated tooth infection.

Last year, at least 32 people died in ICE custody — the most in 2 decades. Reports show at least 9 have died already this year. How many more before Republicans act?

Trump & Republicans cut Medicaid & SNAP to give this lawless agency an extra $75 BILLION.

Not one more dime.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

If we survive this, I really hope parents take a long look at how they are teaching empathy to their children. It's so obvious that that is the missing ingredient in huge chunks of the population, amplified by social media algorithms and cultural rewards for reactions rather than thoughtfulness.

The people burying their heads in the sand an allowing this monster to drive our country off a cliff without any attempt to seek the truth are reprehensible. I'm afraid he'll die of natural causes before anyone does anything....

Yesterday, I asked Kristi Noem’s former number 2, whether he disagreed with Noem’s statement that Renee Good & Alex Pretti were “domestic terrorists."

He refused to answer.

It's clear no one in this Administration knows right from wrong. He should not be representing our country.

And this is all he had to replace Noem.

Couple things here:

1. What the fuck
2. I am allllllmost more offended by the suggestion that I would give this shitbox edit than having my identity stolen
3. The CEO is scheduled to be on Decoder soon and we will see if they back out!

BREAKING: @aoc.bsky.social just came out swinging in the House E&C hearing against dangerous & misguided "age verification" legislation (aka online ID checks) that would force everyone to upload government ID or get a face scan before accessing content or posting online.

I’m noticing a pattern that every time Republicans say something is fake news that basically confirms it is true.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

The War in Iran is costing taxpayers nearly $1 billion a day.

While Trump funds another illegal war, Republicans in Congress are cutting healthcare and food assistance. 

Invest in the American people, not more endless wars.

Meta is facing a new lawsuit over its AI smart glasses, after a news investigation found subcontractors are reviewing footage from customers' glasses, which "included sensitive content, like nudity, people having sex, and using the toilet."

The amount of illegal material on Meta's servers... 👀

I’m frankly a bit surprised Trump fired Noem. It shows weakness and reminds people that accountability is possible.
