We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose.

That Tom McCarthy announced the count after J.T. left the game as “one ball and one strike“ might as well have also been a medical report. #phillies

As luck has it, I'm reviewing the page proofs for the new edition of FAULT LINES today, so sure, let's talk about how historians will write about Trump.
How will future historians write about Trump, whose first term ended in disaster and an attempted coup, and whose second term authoritarianism and demented lies are so routine that the latest "false claim" can be cataloged as "another outlandish conspiracy theory"?

Dan Bongino has a nice cry on Fox & Friends: "I gave up everything for this. I mean, my wife is struggling... I stare at these 4 walls all day in DC, you know, by myself, divorced from my wife. Not divorced, but I mean, separated. And it's hard."

SCHIFF: I understand your view that you can cut half of the agency and it won't affect people's health or their water or their air. That to me is a big fiction ... you could give a rat's ass about how much cancer your agency causes

It’s really funny that conservatives are like “this pope supports immigrants and doesn’t like gun violence” as opposed to what they think Christianity should be concerned with which is having more white people in Honey Nut Cheerio commercials

Interesting piece which reveals a lot of the tech bro ignorance of government: DOGEr comes in, expects to find lots of inefficiency, is at least willing to acknowledge he was wrong unlike the hard core ideologues.
![Now that he’s there, he says he finds himself surrounded by people who “love their jobs,” who came to the government with a sense of mission driving their work.
“In a sense, that makes the DOGE agenda a little bit more complicated, because if half the government took [a buyout offer], then we wouldn’t have to do much more,” he says, implying software can replace departing employees. “We’d just basically use software to plug holes. But that’s not what’s happening.”
Lavingia’s skills with automation, which have helped keep Gumroad lean, are what he hopes to bring to the VA. But when it comes down to it, what he’s found is a machine that largely functions, though it doesn’t make decisions as fast as a startup might.
“I would say the culture shock is mostly a lot of meetings, not a lot of decisions,” he says. “But honestly, it’s kind of fine—because the government works. It’s not as inefficient as I was expecting, to be honest. I was hoping for more easy wins.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2rrp7amblhg3xoly5n5huiqv/bafkreignzunuto2j42vbchtvzg26ablavrjq7e3cq3pbcicwskvpyddlzu@jpeg)

Piers Morgan is a POS but man is this interview wild - based on the way her tone changes I don't think she realized the implications of what she said until after she said it.
If you look closely you can see her realize she is absolutely cooked in real time.
