In a world in which the UN and international law have replaced God, who permits Smotrich and Israel to commit a genocide against Palestinians and deprive them of freedom, justice and peace? The Hague provides all the answers, and a prospect of justice. www.haaretz.com/opinion/2026...

The U.S. Central Intelligence Agency was also involved in the plan to arm Kurdish militias, but it was ultimately canceled by U.S. President Donald Trump following pressure from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. www.ynetnews.com/article/rj9x...

Yeah, that ain't happening, Vlad.

lol, that's pretty good. :-)

Read the latest edition of Receipts by @crampell.bsky.social:

"There’s just an exhaustingly long list of reasons why the $111 billion planned acquisition of Warner Brothers by Larry Ellison and Paramount is very, very bad. Bad for consumers, bad for labor, bad for journalism, bad for democracy, and bad for markets."

Because Flock Can’t Be Trusted, Cities Are Covering Cameras With Garbage Bags Flock Safety doesn't seem to care about anyone. Not its customers, not those captured by its cameras, not even the legislators trying to find a balance between safety and privacy....

JUST IN: As the "Broadview Six" scandal grows, the defense is seeking evidence the White House put pressure on the U.S. Attorney's Office to indict. They're asking for communications about the case, including from Aakash Singh, a top deputy under acting AG Todd Blanche.

So apparently hundreds of thousands of dead Americans from COVID is not enough for Trump. Now he wants to spend $700M on toxic coal-burning plants. The tragic ignorance. The homicidal arrogance. The indifferent recklessness.

PNSN Director Harold Tobin spoke to King 5 about the “shortsighted” cuts to the Ocean Observatories Initiative. “A silver lining in an otherwise bad piece of news,” he says, is that the regional cabled array for offshore earthquake and tsunami monitoring will remain. Watch here: buff.ly/ZrSOye4

The Kennedy Center’s general counsel ordered staff on Thursday to remove President Donald Trump’s name from the building by June 12, according to a memo obtained by CNN, in order to comply with a recent court order. https://cnn.it/4uTzYkk

Trump announces “A Rally to end all Rallies!” on June 24 with Lee Greenwood and Christopher Macchio.

It's always the most obvious ones.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

This is fantastic news.

WOW. The New Jersey AG has charged an Essex County Prosecutor’s Office sergeant for allegedly stealing a photojournalist’s camera equipment while the journo was at a hospital being treated for injuries she suffered outside Delaney Hall. The bag had an air tag and was tracked to the cop's house.

Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund for white nationalist insurrectionists is dead (maybe), but MAGA pedos can still find a silver lining. #Trump #MAGA #ToddBlanche #J6 #SlushFund #weaponization #MAGApedos #J6Pedos

Corrupt criminals, every single one of them.

Despicable.

The Trump administration wants to give political appointees sweeping authority to halt or prevent research on climate and topics at odds with White House priorities. 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Here's Rep Jamie Raskin's bill nixing Trump's corrupt protection against IRS audits. Chef's kiss: It's called the "Block Lawless Agreements and Nullify Corrupt Handouts and Emoluments Act” or the “BLANCHE Act." Backstory below.

The AI industry’s primary super PAC has been secretly running an X account pretending to be an anti AI doomer that posted about killing AI executives and destroying data centers.

Paging @fergdawg.bsky.social because it's his neighborhood. This is sickening.

The rest of the world is leaving us far, far behind in so many ways. More pollution free cities in Europe, and China is burying us with EV technology among other things. It's our stupid politics, stupid.

In Leaked Document, Microsoft Plots How to Get People “Addicted” to Its AI The tech giant let slip that it wants to “make people addicted” to its new personal assistant AI agent, Scout — an alarming admission, given that AI companies have tirelessly fought against the criticism…🤔

Against all the odds, Ukraine is, in fact, winning right now. It would be tragic, and grimly ironic, if this historic opportunity was squandered because the United States has become at best an unreliable ally.

Uhhhh What the hell?? New Ohio poll shows Trump is underwater in Ohio by 15 POINTS! Sherrod Brown 53% Jon Husted 45% Either this is a blinking red light for Trump or Fox News's polling is on crack. www.foxnews.com/politics/fox...

A federal appeals court fined two Southern California lawyers $2,500 each and suspended them from practice in the court for six months after finding that they used AI to cite nonexistent cases to the court and then claimed they hadn’t knowingly done so.

Elected leaders at every level of government must prioritize healthcare & improve affordability and accessibility for seniors, veterans, rural communities, people with disabilities and others. We need stability. #HealthcareNotHate!

The arc of the moral universe only bends towards justice if we bend it. There's no karmic comeuppance for fascists. There's just us. Community and hard work and a willingness to to take risks and fail.

Jonathan V Last: "Pelley was not uncivil. He didn’t threaten anyone. He didn’t curse or scream. He was professionally disagreeable. Which is basically the job description for journalists. It’s the job description that Weiss herself wrote. She just didn’t mean it."

Fed's Beige Book shows evidence of widening K-shaped economy as inflation rises

My hatred for this man burns hotter than a thousand fires.

“I’m Kid Rock.” “I’m Naomi Wolf.” “I’m Kanye West.” “I’m Matt Taibbi.” “I’m Catturd. Those stories, plus Rob Schneider, tonight on 60 Minutes.”

"Bari Weiss knows what she said is not true....Firing’ was raised by Cibrowski in the first 15 seconds. No CBS executive, at any time, suggested ‘a way back.’ To say so now is disingenuous. And they know it.” Scott Pelley is not going to let Bari Weiss keep lying about him. 1/

Get the fuck out of here, man

A new rule explaining how states need to implement Medicaid work requirements may make it much harder for low-income sick people to maintain health coverage next year.

An absolutely insane story from @telliotter.bsky.social about a US government employee who exposed Elon Musk's DOGE for accessing and exfiltrating sensitive data. Days after he went public, he was driving his car and discovered his brakes had been cut.... www.wired.com/story/he-ble...
