Cool, cool. We’re basically out of ATACMS and PrSM, and we used half our *global* TLAM supply… all for the Strait of Hormuz to still be closed?

If I could be granted one wish that would change the world for the better… Find a dog to adopt. That’s it. Simple as that. There are millions out there waiting ❤️
WE NEED 4 SEATS TO FLIP THE SENATE. JOSH TUREK SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. I was researching Josh and came across one of his signature issues: Right to Repair. I had no idea how important this was. Most people in big cities probably don’t either. 🧵
The founders are calling. They suggest you read the damn Constitution.

Any Senator who votes to confirm Todd Blanche is also siding with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell – and is actively participating in covering-up their numerous and heinous crimes.
TW: weight loss I’ve lost 35 lbs this year! This time I wanted to reject diet culture, restrictive eating, and calorie counting because I have a history of EDs. My whole goal has been to not punish myself while just eating good food that fuels my body and it’s working. I’m so proud of myself!
My dad trying to convince me over family dinner at the weekend that Travis Kelce is "almost as rich as Taylor Swift because of all those football contracts" and would not believe me when I pointed out that they are not remotely on the same level, hahaha
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
Microsoft: $101 BILLION in profits. $12.5 BILLION in tax breaks. $176 BILLION in stock buybacks. 4,800 workers fired this week. 9,000 workers fired last year. Please don't tell me trickle-down economics works. It never did. Nothing trickles down.
Global warming is real and we need to fight it. But climate data is starting to look like NBA stats: combine enough variables and there’s always a new “record” or “first ever.” Data matters. Not every possible combination of data does. Fear-driven statistics don’t bring solutions.
I love (“love”) how Microsoft has decided the reason no one uses copilot is becuase we just don’t know how great it is, so now when I open Word or Excel I get a bunch of example pop-ups in the corner showing me exiting basic functions I could always do, but now in the form of a question.
A win! A federal court has dismissed the Department of Justice’s lawsuit seeking access to Colorado’s unredacted voter registration list.

Cars is another one. I’d much rather have a mid sized hatchback compared to a sports car or a Chelsea tractor.

Cornyn and Tillis fold and reward the guy covering for Epstein; the U.S. runs dangerously low on precision missiles; a House GOP abuse scandal keeps getting worse; and more. Your midday update is here:

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."
I don't want a "Smart Fridge" that orders milk for me. I want a fridge that lasts 25 years and doesn't have a privacy policy that allows it to share my late-night snacking habits with my health insurance provider. Post Anything Here: interactink.vercel.app

If you aren't angry then you aren't paying attention.

The proposition that the president of the United States is an adjudicated rapist isn't an argument. It is a fact.
A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.
