Republicans in Congress: you can stop it all anytime. Any. Time.

Army chaplains will have 90 days to remove rank insignia from combat uniforms under new guidance implementing a Pentagon policy announced earlier this year. From Stars and Stripes' Phillip Walter Wellman:

Why did you fire him Hegseth? > Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fired the Army's Chief of Chaplains, Maj. Gen. William Green Jr., on April 2, 2026, without public explanation. His dismissal occurred during Holy Week alongside the ousting of Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George & Gen. David Hodne

“The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in broad daylight has been identified as Jonathan Ross by the Minnesota Star Tribune. I think today is a great day for Jonathan to be indicted!”

Sounds like THEY violated the law and had no actual proof to back up their accusations. "It's illegal under federal law for armed federal law enforcement to come inside a polling place." and "A recently enacted New York state law also bars immigration agents from entering voting sites."

In January, Paigelynne Gonyea posted about the immigration surge in Minneapolis. This week, she was visited by ICE officials who claimed one of her posts had doxxed a federal agent. n.pr/43UQwg3

Everyone of us, except for the amoral techbro billionaire's club, pays the cost of #AI, which produces nothing, improves nothing, and means NOTHING.

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious. Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.

Reid Wiseman just dropped this photo on his Instagram page. It's our homeworld, looking at the nightside, taken from inside the Artemis II Orion spacecraft through one of the windows. There's something so casual about it, about the reflections in the window, but outside IS A WHOLE PLANET HOLY SHIT

NEW: Cities all over Arizona are aiding ICE—but local activists are pressuring city leaders to change their policies. And now, with local elections coming up in July, collaboration with ICE has become a major issue in a bunch of races. Learn all about it! boltsmag.org/arizona-muni...

I'm excited that a Bolts story has just received a Distinguished Coverage award from the Society of Professional Journalists (their San Diego chapter). It's our story on volunteer patrols monitoring ICE activity in San Diego. Congrats to @robcamachosd.bsky.social! Reread his piece:

This is very bad news. I've been reading Scientific American since I was 7. It has informed and delighted me, and its staff have defended scientific truth always. This is blatant union busting and a direct attack on scientific integrity. WHY is this regime so afraid of science?

Scientific American is _the_ pillar of science journalism--publishing continuously since 1845. I'm really not sure what this all means

The news from Scientific American this week has been heartbreaking. While the magazine itself will go on under its new owners, many *extremely talented* writers and editors have been let go. I do worry about the future of #science #journalism… 😔

SpringerNature has sold Scientific American to LabX corporation. The new owner is reducing staff size by one third. The NLRB was scheduled to officially announce the results of their successful unionization election with @wgaeast.bsky.social tomorrow. www.wgaeast.org/wgae-scienti...

And this one sums up the moral bar of the administration and the supine media. Vance: “If Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12-hour news story. “The idea that it would have taken down a presidency is crazy.”

The FCC’s proposal to require IDs for a phone plan will not decrease the amount of unwanted calls. All it will do is set up a data collection regime that harms everyday, law abiding Americans. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Public comment ends today. "If adopted—a likely outcome given the FCC’s current Republican majority who support it—the rules would effectively outlaw burner phones, devices that aren’t specifically tied to identifying data, allowing the privacy-minded to maintain their anonymity."

I had nearly forgotten that social media could help spread the word about a problem that’s difficult to solve through the typical, polite channels. Last week I made an off the cuff post about my frustration with Josie & the Pussycats residuals people saw it. FF>> an interview with @vulture.com

I’m glad I got to see Mt. Vernon before it was infested with slop brain rot.

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

New 'Stuart Fails to Save The Universe' trailer offers quick glimpse of a few familiar BBT faces, incl. Christine Baranski (Beverly Hofstadter), Riki Lindhome (Ramona Nowitzki), and Teller (Larry Fowler). Jon Cryer also is pictured in the kaleidoscope graphic #SFTSTU 😄 1 month!

1) Good use of 'credulous' 2) Excellent point ... 99) Anybody who gives this 'vandals cut up my pool' BS the time of day should go into another line of work.

All Orange County cities must permit residents to give public comment via phone or Zoom during city council meetings, starting July 1.

"Globally, thousands of glaciers have disappeared in recent decades and by the middle of the century, up to 4,000 glaciers could vanish each year if humans continue to drive climate change" In Antarctica, a frozen vault holds the secrets of the world’s vanishing glaciers www.cnn.com/climate/anta...

Describing the rip current, "like a monster" pulling him underwater. "...I couldn't swim anymore. If he would have got to me maybe five seconds later, I probably wouldn't have been above water because I was just exhausted. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't catch my breath. It was very overwhelming."

Make stuff. Do your hobbies. Geek out with your weird friends. Practice arts and crafts. Every society that ever burned to the ground left behind only the handicrafts, and every society saved from the brink was saved only by arts. Do not give up the joy of creating.

"changes include a switch to external ballistic vest carriers that say 'police federal officer' and the introduction of rank insignia, symbolic sleeve patches like stripes or stars that denote a hierarchical ranking as seen in the military." And, some vehicles rangers drive will be marked "police"

This American watched live from Paris, the opening of the Obama Presidential Center and it brought joy to my heart. Michelle's speech made me bawl. Common and Stevie made me dance. Seeing Hillary reminded me of hope. Merci! 🇺🇸🥂⚖️🩷 @barackobama.bsky.social @obama.org
