“Our bad!” — Politico
Way too often I wonder if @theguardian.com and @politico.com regret publishing these articles that were obviously blatant fabrications when they came out.

Also seems like maybe @politico.com should name the two officials they granted anonymity to who were the source of this obvious lie.

Very aptly put.
In 2020, a writer from England named Nate White wrote a fascinating text as a response to the question: "Why do some British people not like Donald Trump". Almost 5 years later, I think the words by White still make perfectly sense: thenewgeneration.blog/2025/01/25/w...
Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?
This blog entry is entirely attributed to Nate White, an articulate and witty writer from England who apparently wrote the following response (below) to the question in the headline: “Why do …

The Chileno Valley Newt Brigade saves Pacific newts

In fall, migrating newts cross a public road separating forest habitats from spawning grounds in Laguna Lake, that abuts Chileno Valley Road.

The 80 strong grassroots group has rescued 22,300 newts over 6 years.
How did the newt cross the road? With the help of the Chileno Valley Newt Brigade!
In northern California, a group of volunteers spend every night from late fall through winter as crossing guards–escorting migrating salamanders across a rural road.

Staffing shortages in special education are more than inconvenient - they make schools unsafe. School support professionals will continue to get hurt until districts hire enough workers to safely staff classrooms and pay them well enough that they're willing to stay. www.npr.org/2024/12/02/n...
Why there's a shortage of staff to work with special education students
Staff who work with special education students are sometimes injured by students. That can make it harder to fill staff vacancies, at a time when there's already a nationwide shortage.

Don't know who needs to hear this, but maybe it's better if we start spending more time trusting people with M.D.s & Ph.D.s & who teach medical students and less time trusting billionaires who have absolutely no background or degree in science.

I can’t take Hasan seriously after what he did during the 2024 elections. Great time to launch his media empire on the backs of Gazans while aiming squarely at Harris with his radical darts to monetize his presence. Can’t doubt his clout but both sides just lost.
I genuinely don't think I can handle the next four years of New York Times headlines.

Kill me now.

Watters: At least Trump doesn't make promises he knows he's going to break… when he says he's going to pardon Jan Sixers, he'll probably do it. Fire the FBI director, he's done it once, he'll do it again.

Biden’s triumph is that democracy held during his four years.

Hunter’s pardon is our country’s reward.

If you put things correctly they’re easier to understand
It's almost like these writers haven't followed the Hunter Biden case—and don't know that it entered a new realm after a fair deal (on a case that never should've been brought at all) was nixed by Republicans as they promised to keep dishonestly investigating Hunter Biden for the rest of this decade
By granting immunity to his son Hunter, President Biden has contradicted his values and reinforced the right's cynical theory of power.
