In multiple states, legislators have passed laws banning the teaching of divisive topics and prohibiting DEI programs. Dozens of faculty members said they had to fight back against angry alumni, political officials and student activists who attempted to get them fired or doxxed them.

NEW: USPS told a federal judge that, during the week of Sept. 6, it expected to launch an online portal that’s crucial to enforcing and complying with its new mail voting restrictions. But as of Friday evening — nearly a week after its statement to the judge — USPS’s portal is nowhere to be found.

Friends, if you still post on X, I think less of you. I don't hate you. Not gonna cancel you. But your posting on X gives me reason to doubt your judgment & your commitment to sticking up for vulnerable people against powerful predators. I'm not perfect, either! But I'm not fucking posting on X.

What 9/11 showed is that Osama bin Laden understood the US would tilt into madness after an attack. And we did everything possible to prove him right. We dishonored the dead, made our country crueler, and started wars that killed up to a million people. That should also be what we remember.

Now that the summer peak is behind us, we can confidently conclude that 2024 will retain its title for warmest day on record, with 2023 coming in 2nd and 2026 coming in a close 3rd. August was nonetheless the warmest month on record, as a growing El Nino event adds to steady ongoing warming.

Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that he’s the worst president in US history, he’s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.
