Austin Bergstrom International is a great airport. The requirement for local ownership to be a vendor there makes it a great ambassador for the city when visitors land.
Actually, you know what? Let’s stop complaining for a second. QT this with a GOOD airport. Defend that title as much or as little as you like. But let’s hear about airports that don’t suck.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison.
It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.

CNN reporting that Senate Democrats are “disappointed” in House members for violating “decorum” at Trump’s speech last night.
Just utterly clueless. And worth remembering next time those senators wax reverently about John Lewis.

If you’re a federal employee, you should know this is a lie. Congress hasn’t appropriated these monies and so it’s literally not there to be spent. Also, federal agencies are limited by law to a max $25K payout in the case of restructuring.
BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨
President Donald Trump's administration is set to offer every single federal worker the chance to take a "deferred resignation" with a severance package of roughly eight months of pay and benefits.

Definitely feeling a stronger urge to get off the unencrypted centralized apps. Signal is a good start, but something with discord-like features would be great

This match is made more stressful than necessary by the Spirits' apparent refusal to score goals before the 75th minute. #NWSLChampionship

@annieelliott.bsky.social tells me all but 3 Spirit players in the starting XI have scored a goal this season. Just a bonkers stat.

Really compelling idea from @wileynickelnc.
He suggests that Democratic leadership appoint a “shadow cabinet” - members of Congress assigned as watchdogs for each cabinet agency, offering clear counterpoints for the Admin’s actions.
The Brits do this. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Opinion | What should Democrats do now? Form a shadow cabinet.
The venerable British institution of the opposition would serve America well today.
