DUFFY: Yeah. Look at what Sandra Smith wears and that's what you should wear to the airport

Monterey Park becomes the first city in California to ban "all data centers within city limits" Residents of the small enclave east of LA not only killed their city's proposed 250,000 square foot data center, they pushed city council to ban them altogether

Last night, after an hours-long public hearing, Monterey Park became the first city in California to pass an ordinance permanently banning data centers.

The city council voted unanimously to declare data centers a public nuisance, and to "prohibit all data centers within city limits."

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

Cortez Masto to Warsh: In 2007, you said 'subprime mortgages have gotten a bad name.' You said you have no regrets. How can we trust that you're accurate now when you were wrong then?

Hegseth sneered about the military's logistical experts, and now he's got ships stuck with sailors almost starving on them.

But he's still sure the dismissive attitude about the flu won't come back to bite him.

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

I know that the United Kingdom has left the European Union... But I still believe that these four countries would make the EU the strongest union in the world, with the best security in the world.

We are not seeking an alternative. I simply believe that these four countries are very strong and would make the European Union stronger.

Goddamnit. He´s of the Epstein class, which must be abolished, if the planet and society is ought to survive. And now he also looks like an opportunist, so imo his reputation is in the toilet by this behaviour alone.

Pete Hegseth, when he was an Army National Guard major, was one of 12 Guard members removed from duty at President Joe Biden's inauguration in January 2021 following vetting by the FBI and military officials.

Those were all the credentials he needed for Trump to appoint him Defense Secretary.

I mean, an inflationary recession is one of the few things that has demonstrably broken a preexisting party system in the US.

The fact that Trump made it happen via a futile, horribly unpopular war is just the cherry on top.
