So odd that Congress is so willing to have their power usurped and stripped from them.

My staff and I are closely tracking the potential measles exposure in San Antonio that originated with a visitor from West Texas.
If you visited any of the locations listed below, please watch out for symptoms (including fever or unexplained rash) and contact a doctor right away if they occur.

Elon Musk’s team is set to delve into the nation’s aviation system, with his 20-year-old staffers utilizing AI to assist the FAA in a rapid overhaul of aviation technology. However, a more practical solution would be to simply hire more workers, as the FAA is severely short-staffed.

If your goal this year is to read more books, remember:
you don’t have to finish every book you start. If you’re halfway through and can’t stand the characters or just don’t care what happens, it’s okay to put it down.
Life’s too short to read books you don’t love!

Elon Musk has changed his X profile.
His avatar is now Pepe the Frog, a mascot adopted by white supremacists.
His name is a Latinisation of “Kek”, a phrase used by neo-Nazis.
Musk has also backed AfD in Germany, the political home for racists.
The man is telling us explicitly what he’s about.

Huge night here at NYU. An undergrad trying to fix their grade accidentally discovered how to email 11,000 instructors on a secret group email list, unifying the faculty like no one before. I have hundreds of email replies in my inbox. And apparently Onions, the puppy, has just been granted tenure.
Someone just sent a photo of their dog, Onions, to an 11,000 person faculty listserv, adorable

I hope we can give up on wishing a billionaire would step in because it is like wishing for death.
billionaires could easily prove their worth to society with selflessly benevolent acts- funding Bluesky as an independent platform would be a huge benefit to society for a fraction of the 44b Musk set on fire to make Twitter a fascist bullhorn
but of course they don't and never will
