I wish the media had the same urgency about the state of Mitch McConnell as they did for Kamala's W-2 from McDonald's in the 80s.

The Concord Housing and Redevelopment Authority installed Minut Monitor sensors in tenants' homes, recording their movements and noise levels and threatened them with eviction if they refused. We're suing. We shouldn't have to choose between having a place to live and 24/7 government surveillance.

In a strategic retreat in the fight against climate change, the U.N. acknowledges that Earth has lost its chance to prevent some of the worst of global warming’s harms. So now the world must figure out how to get temperatures below the danger zone and back to safety, officials say.
Global warming will exceed limit, U.N. says in a report that maps path to get back below danger zone
“If we act now we can limit overshoot,” the report said. “Not a safe world, but safer than remaining above” 1.5 degrees for the long term.

I really feel like it should be bigger news that fibreglass is in IV saline bags in the US. This isn’t a situation where you might get a little sick. Fibreglass going directly into your veins will kill you. IV saline is used for almost every medical procedure. This is unconscionable:

Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.
It's worth noting that this isn't a random number but a goal that would simply restore the court to an earlier norm in which there's one justice for each of the judicial circuits. We used to have nine, we now have thirteen. The people defending the current setup have the tougher case to make here.
Rep. James Clyburn says he supports expanding the Supreme Court: "13 is a pretty good number. A baker's dozen would be a good number to have on the Court."

The residents of Gary have been without electricity for 2 weeks and their lieutenant governor is tweeting this:
Somewhere in a sweltering desert, cockroaches scurry around the cell of Carlitos Ricardo Parias. He holds up a plastic bottle, gazing at the worm-like creatures swimming in his water. His other arm is turning purple from a gunshot wound for which he says he hasn’t received proper medical care.

I wonder if republicans will do their yearly remembrance/blame game for the 13 soldiers who died in Afghanistan under Biden now that at least 18 have died due to trump's pointless war. I guess we'll find out in 5 days!
