NEW FROM ME: This morning, a federal judge in Maryland handed the DOJ its ninth defeat in a series of 31 cases the department has filed to gain access to state voter files. The DOJ has yet to win a single one. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/dojs...

…I’m sorry, meta keylogs its employees?

always tell your counterparty that you're desperate to avoid becoming the next herbert hoover

It’s the same reason Trump immediately lost interest in war with Iran immediately after the “shock and awe” wore off—narcissists hate knowing that people don’t think highly of them and want any evidence otherwise to disappear.

I think Elon Musk is JUST sentient enough to be dimly aware that he is damned for all time - that his name will be pissed and spat upon for as long as his filthy legacy is remembered - and that delights me. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Has anyone heard from Harmeet Dhillon today? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

oh they wanna play this game? let’s fuckin go

Is the pool the most important story? Of course not. Is it something low-info voters can wrap their heads around? Is it emblematic of how Trump handles everything (corruption, incompetence, lies)? Is Trump making it worse with his own implausible lies? IMHO, yes. So, yeah, worth discussing.

I interviewed Daisy Rockwell last fall about the DHS/ICE recruitment ads featuring Norman Rockwell's paintings (without permission), and the disgust the family felt about this hijacking of his legacy. www.thebulwark.com/p/norman-roc...

I asked Norman Rockwell's granddaughter, Daisy Rockwell, about this use of her grandfather's work. She writes: "It goes without saying that they have completely misunderstood the meaning of the painting, which is tolerance for others and peaceful coexistence."

WSJ announcing they're doing to do journalism like it's a new concept

All the props in the world to this guy, but THIS IS NOT A FEEL-GOOD STORY IT IS A DAMNING INDICTMENT OF OUR SOCIETY AND HOW WE TREAT OUR MOST VULNERABLE

“Lived in racially homogeneous, high-trust society.“ bro, people during that age got wrecked by criminals all the time

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Washington D.C. blocked DHS from using its citizenship database to remove voters from registration rolls, striking a significant blow against President Donald Trump’s unconstitutional attempt to take control of federal elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

If we filled the reflecting pool with children the administration wouldn’t arrest anyone for touching it.

Republican backers of Trump’s signature domestic policy bill repeatedly claimed that revisions to the food benefits program wouldn’t affect the most vulnerable. But reports from a dozen states show children are losing access.

I think what this reduces to is that doctors are extremely time limited and patient plus LLM can chisel away at it as long as they want, which means among other things better context discovery

look upon my emoluments ye mighty and despair

And this is another angle showing it slam directly into the house from Yahoo’s article

Holy fuck

Didn’t see these in the thread, but these pics from Minneapolis five months ago (by Jeff Wheeler of @startribune.com) struck me as great examples of the flag being used powerfully against the current admin.

It's OUR FUCKING COUNTRY. IT'S OUR FUCKING FLAG. WE WANT BOTH BACK.

can someone put the microchip that makes being good at time management into my brain

You don't say.

Someone has been projecting images all over D.C. “It’s swampier than ever.” The Kennedy Center one is pretty hilarious. 😂😂😂

ok art may be subjective but this is objectively amazing

A Silicon Valley software maker and an ecommerce company reveal to WIRED how they are navigating the emerging challenge of “tokenomics.”

Interesting how widespread subsidies and support for carbon capture and synthetic direct air capture are when not one peer-reviewed paper in the world shows, when the whole system and opportunity costs are considered, either reduces any CO2 from the air. Multiple papers show CC+DAC increase CO2.

With dozens of self-inflicted crises on his hands, all Donald Trump wanted to talk about was his plan to renovate the reflecting pool, a topic literally no one gave a shit about. And now that he's fucked that up, his cult members are complaining that people are talking about his big project.

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/

He had not been charged. They kept him isolated and shackled, and wouldn’t let him make a phone call. After over a day, he managed to hook a phone cord with his toes and make a call. When the NYT started asking questions, the government dismissed all the charges against him. 😡

This is an unfathomably evil act that will be a foul stain on our nation’s history forever. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/19/w...
