A civilisation which throws out 13 million smartphones a day cannot be described as a civilisation. It is an infection that spreads mercilessly until it is consumed by its own waste.

Lawyers can't reach clients in ICE detention. I've heard it anecdotally, but scale of issue is horrifying.

Bloomberg Law is a legal trade pub so many may miss this. Screenshot from their CA newsletter summarizes "bleak" situation for justice and rule of law.

The United States is no longer a nation under the rule of law.
I urge Canadians to avoid travel. Illegal detentions and kidnapping by ICE have become all too common for travellers and those with working VISAs.
Stay away at this time.

I was curious about whether this was just named after somebody named “White” but no they literally called it this because it was a settlement of white people
This race was such a massive swing blowout that Democrat Taylor Rehmet literally won a city called White Settlement

(ABC News) Hold your horses. The DEM Minority Leader Jeffries has said that the DEMs will NOT automatically on Monday PM vote with GOP to end the current shutdown. He wants a full debate on the issues. Attaboy, great job!!

abcnews.go.com/Politics/gra...
Jeffries says Dems won't help fast-track Senate-passed funding measure, with shutdown expected to drag on longer than anticipated
The measure will now have to first pass through the House Rules Committee before it can be taken to the floor for a vote.

When Trump testified in deposition on his NY fraud case, he estimated his net worth at $3.2B, which was wildly inflated. That was after a lifetime in business. Trump has now made $4.05B just in the past year - most of it from foreign entities. archive.ph/2026.01.31-1...

Judge slams Trump over 5-year-old: "Observing human behavior confirms that for some among us, the perfidious lust for unbridled power and the imposition of cruelty in its quest know no bounds and are bereft of human decency. And the rule of law be damned." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Ellison on Trump: "That sounds like a petty child who will not tolerate any challenge to his massive and highly delicate ego. As he's wearing his fancy tuxedo going to whatever fancy ball he's going to, Minnesotans are standing in the 9 below weather fighting for our very democracy and lives."

And this stat doesn’t even include the outside spending.
A noteworthy takeaway from tonight's Texas result is that the Republicans spent a metric truckload of money on this race. They spent millions more than the Democrats. The loss itself aside, this is a gigantic, flashing warning sign for the GOP's finances.
