RIP Kaleb Horton kalebhorton.ghost.io/2025-so-far/

Gutted at the news that Kaleb Horton is gone. Kaleb was a brilliant writer, of course, but he was also a gifted photographer. Years ago I encouraged him to sell his pieces. His work was so good, I told him, and people should see it. Here are some of his beautiful shots.

Tons of talk about Kaleb’s always incredible writing but I was also always very charmed by his photography. The guy loved California so much and it really came through in everything he did. It’s always awful to lose somebody but in particular somebody so young going so suddenly really feels unfair

Revisited this spectacular Kaleb Horton paragraph about crows this morning. "I have met crows that should be in jail" is one of those sentences that's so good you're initially furious you didn't write it yourself before circling back around to just being glad you got to read it.

🔴 UPD: In Kyiv, a 12-year-old girl was killed in a Russian night strike. The death toll has risen to three. Her body was recovered from the rubble in the Solomianskyi district, according to the Kyiv City Military Administration.

I wonder how many such cases are out there, across Europe and the USA.

🔹️Southwest of Kyiv, Borshchahivka — Russian Shahed-type kamikaze drones were seen flying directly toward residential buildings… Information about casualties remains unknown.

Russia launched one of its biggest missile strikes of the year this morning. Early estimates point to 500–650 drones and over 60 missiles, including up to 55 Kh-101s, 8 Kalibr, 2 Kinzhal, and several Kh-59s. Targets included Kyiv, Bila Tserkva, Vasylkiv, and nearby towns.

The last 3 years of drone evolution changed how wars are fought. If Russia wins here, it will turn those battlefield lessons and tech on NATO & Europe. Making Russia one of the most powerful armies on the planet. That’s what worries me and keeps me up. Support Ukraine now. #StandWithUkraine

WOW. This entire story is HORRIFIC. This is FOIA of a body cam from the raid in upstate New York the same day as the Hyundai plant. It catches a Border Patrol agent on camera only bragging about denying medical care to migrants detained at the border under Biden — who he says are all "animals." 1/3

💔russias absolute despicable and reckless shelling of Zaporizhzhia continues day after day! Tonight three people are confirmed injured as Russia hit several private houses and a gas station!! #RussiaisATerroistState

This is much, much more significant than the Comey indictment but has gotten like 0.1% of the media coverage

“The polite phrase for this is ‘democratic backsliding.’ But that’s a euphemism that doesn’t meet the moment. Let’s call it what it is: it’s a power grab. The rule of law isn’t slipping; leaders are sabotaging it. Rights aren’t being neglected; they’re being stripped." @clintonglobal.bsky.social

I prefer "curmudgeonly wise man," but otherwise, yes

A New York City mural seeks to reignite conversation about the January 6, 2021, attack on Capitol Hill by featuring the stories of more than 1,500 individuals charged or convicted in connection with the case

And THAT, boys and girls, is why we have chosen, almost 16 years ago FDR to be a patron of Being Liberal page.

Military service is about courage and sacrifice. That’s what my father, a Marine, and my mother, a Navy veteran, taught me. But awarding medals for the massacre at Wounded Knee is cruelty, not honor. And reaffirming them today only deepens the injustice. (1/2🧵)

Post the wins. Think about how consumers and market forces made these giant powerful companies change course and — here’s the important part — defy Trump. Now consider doing it for something bigger than Jimmy Kimmel.

💭 ❗️ 🇺🇦 🚀 🇺🇸   At a closed UN meeting, Zelensky asked Trump to provide Ukraine with "Tomahawk" missiles, — The Telegraph 🤫  Recently Zelenskyy also said something similar in one of his interviews:

Congratulations, Lt. Col. Martin! This is the face of a real American patriot. “She began her 42-year career as an administrative specialist, going on to serve as a DI — though women weren’t allowed to don the iconic campaign cover at the time — before earning a commission as an officer in 1996.”

When the President uses federal law enforcement for his personal revenge, it puts all of us in danger.

Jeffries: "Here's what DHS has done. DHS put out a hit list directed at Democratic members of Congress, Dem governors, and Dem officials. It's a hit list saying to crazies all across the country 'target these people.' So no, we're not gonna be lectured by DHS. Take your hit list down."

JUST NOW AT THE UN…
