Who is this lead paint chip eater and why is he "thinking" at all?

Senate Republicans pushed through a budget resolution in the early morning hours that clears the path for major ICE and Border Patrol funding increases, with zero Democratic votes. The 50-48 tally came after an all-night session on Capitol Hill.

Trump told you he’d run America like a business.

He is.

It’s called asset stripping. You sell the profitable pieces, gut the workforce, load it with debt, and walk away rich while everyone else holds the bag.

Congratulations. You didn’t elect a president. You hired a liquidator.

I just looked it up to confirm: Octavia Spencer played Dorothy Vaughan in the 2016 film " Hidden Figures", one of my favorite films. My parents were early computer programmers.

High-contrast black-and-white close-up portrait of Dorothy Vaughan, smiling and wearing glasses and a pearl necklace. Bold gold and white text beside her reads, “She learned it first and taught the rest.” Her name, Dorothy Vaughan, appears at the bottom in large gold lettering.

She saw the future before it arrived.

Dorothy Vaughan taught herself programming and became NASA’s first Black supervisor, leading the West Area Computing group into a new era.

Mathematician. Leader. She made sure she had a place in it.

Imagine the hysterical reaction from the right had Hunter Biden gone on TV and bragged about getting millions of dollars from his father's government for doing something he had no aptitude or experience for?

Waymo Is Not In The 'Vision Zero' Toolbox: Data - Streetsblog New York City At least two of the cities where Waymo operates have not experienced declines in traffic-related injuries and deaths.

"Waymo has told advocates that expecting it to respect bike lanes is 'too high a bar' because customers expect to be dropped off in them."

To be crystal clear, it's illegal for a car to be in a bike lane. It doesn't matter what Waymo's customers expect; the company shouldn't be doing it.

Democrats say cuts to social security have caused ‘customer service chaos’ for American seniors Report from Elizabeth Warren calls Trump administration cuts to Social Security Administration ‘catastrophic’

Cuts to the Social Security Administration have caused “customer service chaos" per a new report. A Dem investigation found that phone wait times were more than 10 times higher than what the agency claimed on its website, if the calls were even answered at all.

The White House is completely silent as BBC confirms a consistent pattern of massive financial spikes occurring just minutes before Donald Trump makes market moving announcements. The administration is facing severe allegations of illegally profiteering off inside knowledge

Under Trump, another person—a Vietnamese immigrant in Indiana—has died in ICE custody.

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.

Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.

You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

The president's son, who was never involved in this industry before his father became president, should not be getting contracts from the Pentagon. This is absurd corruption that Republicans in congress will say nothing about and do no oversight. bsky.app/profile/atru...

PabloReports: Donald Trump is complaining about the results in Virginia. He seems to be very distressed.

AOC: I’m sooo sorry for his heartbreak at this moment, and I look forward to adding ten more Democratic colleagues in November.

THIS IS SHOCKING! WTF is happening to these men?!

It just means more money spent to fight this in court.

I hear this from my daughter too. But you are never alone. There are a zillion Nonnas here for all of the sad ones. We care about you and many others. And there are dogs and cats who are waiting for someone to love them, at a shelter or a neighbor if not at your home. Spend time with beauty & love.

Absolutely an irreplaceable trading partner.

Canada has already reduced sales to the US by 9%, resulting in a net loss to America of $400 Billion Dollars. Carney is working to reduce it to more than 50% by 2030.
Purchases from the USA will also be reduced dramatically. How is this good for America?

Ooooh classified. So Mar a Lago, got it.

I am hoping that his autopsy explains his need for cheeto dust makeup.

BREAKING:

A Virginia judge just temporarily halted the implementation of the state's new voter-approved redistricting measure.

Election officials cannot move forward now unless the ruling is overturned by a higher court.

Virginia's AG has vowed to appeal the ruling.

Data centers have contaminated ground water in Oregon.

They've released smog into the air in Memphis.

And they've contributed to electricity bill spikes — all while receiving millions of dollars in tax breaks.

Is it any wonder why a nationwide backlash against AI data centers is brewing?
