Yet another scientific climate monitoring system is about to go offline thanks to the Trump administration. As a consequence, as this article describes, Americans living in coastal areas, particularly in the Pacific Northwest, may not get an urgent notice that a tsunami will soon hit their coast.

I’d started to wonder whether the Epstein files were a bit of a macguffin, but no no they implicate the President of the United States in a pedophilia ring—and show the entire Republican Party as well as much of the federal government has been baldly covering it up. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

The Trump DOJ’s bogus prosecution of New York Attorney General Letitia James just got a lot more difficult to pull off, with what appears to be a major administration coverup of the origins of the case against her.

Obvious but worth saying. We really think the White House/DOJ which disappears documents and people pretty regularly is gonna go, "Welp, House voted so I guess we have to turn over the stag films of Trump with a 15 yr old. The rules are the rules." I'm not saying the exercise is pointless at all.

This allows Trump (via DOJ) to use taxpayer money to bribe eight GOP Senators. It's that simple, there's no other way to describe it.

And where's the compensation for people injured by the Trump admin's unlawful conduct through DHS & DOGE?

Take a bow, @schumer.senate.gov, you did this.

Since Trump and his aides keep lying about grocery prices, here are the facts:

Food inflation in Biden's last year: 1.8 pct.
Food inflation since Trump began his trade war: 3.1 pct.

Trump has nearly doubled grocery inflation.

Trump keeps claiming that prices are ‘way down’ — but with food inflation running nearly twice the rate as it was in Biden’s last year, Americans are not fooled.

Trump is having a good time while it's shut down, people in his orbit have caught him saying it should never open up again. This man has no fear that we will ever do anything to stop him & that we are all his property.

They will make us wage slaves, what are we willing to do about that?

The long-running ideological war on libraries, education, and government workers is not separate from AI boosterism. It is the same ideological war on human knowledge and expertise. In some cases AI is being used to directly supercharge this effort:
