“If the Epstein scandal teaches us anything, it is that America needs a dedicated and decently funded group of people whose job is not just to ask questions, but to find answers,” @helenlewis.bsky.social writes. “Let’s call them journalists.”

ICE now has 3x more funding than the United States Marine Corps. Our hard-earned taxpayer money. Over $170+ billion handed over, and for what?
To rip families apart. To instill fear. To dismantle the very virtues by which this country was built. To help the rich get richer.

Hey @bsky.app it would be cool if I could filter out trending topics. For example, I do not care about sports of any kind, so it would be nice if I could filter out “NBA Finals”. Thanks!

Friendly reminder that this original incident happened during Trump’s last presidency, under a Trump-appointed FBI director and a Trump-appointed AG, who both found nothing wrong with it. Punishing/demoting agents now is a sign of cancer spreading in Kash Patel’s FBI.

The problem is that this isn’t your decision to make. You may have created NATS but once it was donated to the CNCF you no longer owned it. Just like neither I nor Google own k8s.
You know this. You knew it when you donated it.

Fusillade? Sorry, but I should not need an English degree from Harvard to understand this NYT article.
On Friday night, the federal government sent Harvard a five-page fusillade of new demands that would reshape the school’s operations, admissions, hiring, faculty and student life.
It took less than 72 hours for Harvard to say no.

Why Harvard Decided to Fight Trump
The Trump administration will freeze over $2 billion in federal funds because Harvard refused to comply with a list of demands. Harvard leaders believed saying no was worth the risk.

The White House was hours away from announcing a proposal to spin off the popular video app TikTok when the Chinese government shattered the idea, saying it would not approve of any deal without first discussing President Trump’s tariffs and trade policy, people close to the negotiations said.
The White House had a TikTok deal. Trump’s China tariff wrecked it.
The president said he would sign an executive order that lets the Chinese-owned video app stay online while talks continue on a sale, drawing out a years-long battle over its fate.
