Vanity Fair has a new profile of Waymo CEO Tekedra Mawakana, positioning her as a kind of anti-Elon, and yours truly gets quoted along the way.

Worth a read, if you think all "self-driving cars" are the same, and all leading to the same place (they're not).

Legitimately inhumane.
If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

Can we talk about the cognitive impairment of President “falls a lot” yet?

Our coalition has expanded, and a lot has been happening. A friendly reminder to all: the first rule of Fight Club is you do not talk about Fight Club.

Pres Trump is a disgrace for (among other reasons) not wearing black as is protocol at the #PopeFrancis funeral.

Do NOT drop this story. Keep hitting it hard. They could have killed our pilots.
YouGov poll:

74% Americans — including 60% of Republicans — say the Trump admin's use of the Signal chat to discuss military strikes is a serious problem.

It's called doctors know what signs to look for now in order to make a proper diagnosis.
Trump: "Something happened. If you go back 20 years, autism, think of it -- one in 20,000 children. Think of that. One autism. You see it all over. One in 20,000 children. Now it's one in 36 children. Now, what the hell is that all about? There's something out there and we gotta find it."

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter.

Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them.

Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

Imagine if Biden…..
REPORTER: Are you considering revoking the TPS status for the more than 20,000 Ukrainians who live here in the US?

TRUMP: What are you saying?

REPORTER: TPS status.

TRUMP: On GPS?

#Trump & #Musk are afraid!!
NEW: WIRED got IP blocked by the Social Security Administration, among other outlets covering Musk's takeover.

Federal workers are now "prohibited" from accessing our reporting on "government-furnished equipment."

WaPo, NYT, and MSNBC are likewise banned, sources confirm.
Social Security Workers Aren’t Allowed to Read This Story
New internet restrictions at the embattled SSA have cut off access to WIRED, along with other “general news” websites like The Washington Post and The New York Times.

I'm a firm believer that the president is not behind the details of the EOs and often they don't start with him.
Trump is doing that weird thing where he signs executive orders that are explained to him immediately before he signs

unreal -- Fox News brought in a journalist from Russia as part of a panel, but he's being too hard on Putin and Trump, so host Will Cain has to step in and toe the Kremlin/MAGA line
