Understand that the Halligan thing is 100% Pam Bondi's fuck-up. She could have appointed Halligan Special Attorney and this thing would still be alive.

So it's not just that HALLIGAN is an incompetent bigot.

It's that Bondi is too.

What makes me furious is how many institutions and elites bowed down to Trump like he was an unstoppable god-king when they only needed to hold out for a few months

MAGA is falling apart. The Republicans are falling apart. Trump is falling apart. They will continue to do terrible (and in some cases irreparable) damage at home and abroad but something has changed. You can feel it

“Why is Putin more evil than Biden? I can’t even conceptualize that.”

To understand how much my former party has changed, it’s important to understand that if Tucker decided to run for president in 2028, he’d have a great shot at getting the GOP nomination. He really would.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

This is power sector emissions only but still that is A LOT

Still sort of mind-boggled by a climate person who recently dismissed this as a "rounding error"

If you're rounding to the nearest ten gigatonnes, I guess??? Or if you're using teratonnes????
BNEF: global CO2 emissions "are expected to be 3.5 gigatons greater over the next ten years because of the additional fossil-fuel power generation required by data centers. That’s the equivalent of 10% of today’s total global emissions." www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Pam Bondi and Pete Hegseth appear to be in a fierce contest to prove who is The Most Incompetent.

Alas, their time is wasted, as their boss, Donald J. Trump, will always win that contest.

Setting aside for a second the lunacy and authoritarianism surrounding the Trump/Hegseth threat to court martial Mark Kelly, it is also politically moronic. No military court or jury would uphold this, and you only do Kelly a tremendous favor by making him more popular than ever.

xAI's data centres are one of the few sites in the world where we actually know why they exist and the outputs they produce.

So everyone local life shortened by the choking air pollution from the fossil fuelled power plant built to run this site: we know it's for shit like this

I absolutely love that the Tish James and James Comey news dropped minutes before Trump is supposed to roll out his latest “healthcare plan,” which just like the last 87 versions doesn’t exist. Perfect timing. Nothing exposes a scam like actual accountability happening somewhere else.
