Let's be clear: if Trump nukes Iran tonight or uses conventional munitions to destroy civilian targets, EVERY Republican member of Congress is complicit and should be held to account for their gross inaction.

No whitewashing of history. Just tribunals.

If your laptop is stranded on Windows 10, the solution isn't a new laptop. It's a new operating system.

2. 1000 mph is the approximate surface motion at the equator, but it's less at other latitudes (0 mph at poles!)
3. The rotation rate is about 15 degrees / hour (i.e., 360 degrees / 24 hours), so for a one-minute video, it's only 0.25 degrees of rotation -- would be very hard to notice!

As I said before, the only time I've "teleported" to a Waffle House is when I was blackout drunk and didn't remember the designated driver pouring me into the car to take us to get hangover prevention food.

Many crazy nights end at Waffle House, but God has never teleported me there...

BREAKING: Trump Fires Pam Bondi… for Not Being Corrupt Enough Our authoritarian president wanted Bondi to prosecute his enemies. She tried – and helped cover up the Epstein scandal, too. It wasn’t enough.

If I were a member of the House of Representatives, on Monday I’d submit an article of impeachment.

Republicans established mere months ago that anyone celebrating someone’s death on social media should lose their job.

Make the jokers who insisted on this principle after Charlie Kirk vote it down.

Trump DOJ’s voter rolls grab has unearthed a tiny number of illegitimate votes Dozens of illegitimate votes may seem significant. But 50 illegitimate votes would amount to just 0.000007 percent of the roughly 680 million votes cast in the last five national elections.

NEW: After accessing nearly half of the states’ full voter rolls, the DOJ's Harmeet Dhillon said it's only found “dozens” of instances of noncitizen voting.

Though seemingly significant, 50 illegitimate votes would amount to ~0.000007% of roughly 680 million votes cast in the last five elections.

Waterfall ❌ Waterfly ✅

I was so lucky be able to experience this magical phenomenon of water going up instead of falling down. When I got to this waterfall on Faroe islands, the wind was so strong that it was hard just to even stand up.

Plaintiffs oppose this motion.1

Here's the language from Trump's appeal of the District Court ruling on tariffs that said they'd pay back the plaintiffs, at least (they made this promise to get a stay back in May).

They caused themselves the headache they're about to face.

I've read a lot of slanted papers from tech company employees about the 'benefits' of AI, but the fact that Anthropic themselves have put out such a cautious paper should be a big cause for alarm for people who are trading learning for prompting

Republicans just lost a district Trump won by 17 points- in Texas. That’s not an anomaly, it’s a pattern. Democrats are building on our historic overperformance, and we’re not slowing down. November is coming, and we’re ready. ALL GAS, NO BRAKES!!
