Everyone should read this week’s WSJ story on Trump selling pardons. It’s some of the most corrupt shit I’ve ever seen—you can literally corner him at one of his lame parties and walk away with a pardon. How is this not the biggest story in the country?

SOCIAL SECURITY CAP SHOULD BE ELIMINATED.
Per the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, eliminating the tax cap would significantly improve the solvency of the Social Security trust funds, decreasing the programs' long-range funding shortfall by 73 percent.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

The fact that someone was fooled by a spoof from a website (literally) called the Dunning-Kruger Times has no bearing at all on my confidence that he would definitely have the upper hand in any negotiation with President Xi, or Putin.
With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

Rain garden can go a long way to preventing the worst of the kind of flash flooding—from rain right there, not coming downstream—that just hit NYC.
They're a cheap and often beautiful way to prevent enormous damages.
They're a cheap and often beautiful way to prevent enormous damages.
Research shows rain gardens are remarkably effective at capturing runoff.
When San Francisco installed 30 new rain gardens along a 12-block strip in the city’s Outer Sunset neighborhood, the corridor reduced the amount of stormwater entering the sewer by 95 percent for the area.

Heavier storms are here. Rain gardens can help.
At the most basic level, they function like sponges.
