Bigger picture, goes even stronger than expected identifying Western Hemisphere / Latin America as our #1 priority -- yes, above East Asia -- even implying significant reposturing of US military forces. Is not outright insulting to Asian allies like it is to the Europeans.

🚨 Sen. Angus King, who negotiated the deal to end the shutdown, tells me he no longer sees a path to extend ACA funds, citing GOP demands for tougher abortion limits. “The Republicans have made Hyde a red line,” King said. “And that’s not gonna work.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
Democrats will force a Senate vote on a 3-year extension of Affordable Care Act funds
The legislation is all but guaranteed to fail next week, due to widespread Republican opposition, and become a key issue in the 2026 elections as insurance premiums rise.

Personally I’d like it more if she’d endorse Talarico and then run in 2028. That would give TX two young solid progressive Senators.

An excellent article (maybe not fiery) that highlights not only the issue discussed, but the larger issue of what the military profession in a liberal democracy should be educating its cadre about.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

But has someone outside Google validated their statements? When in doubt, assume large firms like Google will use your data as THEY see fit.
Another example of the burdens created when tech companies behave as untrustworthy social actors - people then go to great lengths to protect themselves even when it’s not necessary, at personal cost and compromising their ability to use the technology that does work
The malwarebytes Google opting-your-emails-into-ai-training thing is not true. The post is based on one bad tweet.
I know anti-tech lamenting is a Bluesky core principle, but please use the same judgement you would for any other clickbait.

I remember reading and posting about this before the 2016 election. It's time Katie Johnson was back in the news.
Trump & Epstein were named as co-defendants in a lawsuit accusing them of raping 13 year old Katie Johnson. She ended up dropping the lawsuit after receiving death threats for her & her family.
This is not new evidence.
This cannot be covered up.

NEW: President Trump's pardon of his alleged 2020 co-conspirators was less about shielding them from past crimes, his adversaries say, than about signaling to others that he has their back if he needs them again in 2026 or 2028.
