Blatantly racist just like their national leaders
Voters in the most conservative county in the Denver Metro Area overwhelmingly reject Republican leaders’ bid for home rule powers as a GOP leader blames the Chinese Communist Party (an opposition leader is Asian American) #copolitics www.9news.com/article/news...

I don't feel like Bluesky is dying as much as people can't deal with social media right now because every single news post is yet another example of corruption, subjugation, fascism, or inequality that will happen without consequence.

There are currently 3 news articles that begin with “despite court order.” He’s not going to start caring about legality now.
President Trump reiterated Monday that he’d like to send U.S. citizens who commit violent crimes to prison in El Salvador, telling Nayib Bukele that he’d “have to build five more places” to hold the potential new arrivals.
Why it’s likely not legal -- and some possible legal loopholes.

Trump says he wants to imprison US citizens in El Salvador. That’s likely illegal
Trump has said his admin is trying to find ways to make it legal anyway.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

“Roxanne” by The Police. Sting sounds like he’s being tortured and the pain is getting progressively worse. Meanwhile, the only torture happening is for the person stuck listening to that trash.
Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

You know, @mlb.com, I didn’t drop a shit ton of money to watch @padres.bsky.social games, arrange to work from home today, pull my kids out of school early for Opening Day, so that we could miss the game because your app doesn’t work. Get your shit together FFS.

Something that deserves recognition:
At federal labs such as NOAA’s NSSL, ESRL, or EMC, most employees are first hired on as contractors through a company or cooperative institute. After several years, many get “promoted” by being hired as Feds. These are the “probationary employees” getting fired

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

People on TikTok are reporting ICE raids happening in small cities in various states.
To get past algorithmic censorship, they’re writing down the information on paper and holding up and shuffling through the handwritten signs as they talk about pretend subjects like shopping, food, and animals.
