This country’s health care system is a joke. Endless money for bombs and tax breaks for corporations and rich folks…and then this. // The U.S. Relies on Family Caregivers. Millions of Them Are Kids. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/05/m...
The U.S. Relies on Family Caregivers. Millions of Them Are Kids. (Gift Article)
The modern health care system requires the work of caregiving to fall to whoever else lives in a household — even if they’re kids.

A data center was just shut down in Wisconsin after the town council refused to have private talks with the developer and told them everything would include public approval That’s how it’s done, folks
honestly can't stress enough, as a former family law attorney, how depressingly common Max Miller's behavior and words are, right down to the petty fixation on custody procedure and rules when faced with allegations of shocking violence.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 22h agoRep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."
Our thoroughly corrupt electoral system.
WHY WOULD ANY USA CITIZEN BE EXEMPT FROM A TAX AUDIT??? Especially The President? He is not a KING ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
You could grow a spine and do your damn jobs.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
Republican Senators are voting to confirm Trump’s lawyer to be AG when it just came out that Capital One shut down Trump’s accounts under suspicion of money laundering and Trump wants exemption from being investigated for tax fraud. THESE PEOPLE ARE CRIMINALS.
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

"AI promises to do what an overstretched human staff cannot: notice the student who quietly stopped logging into the learning platform three weeks before finals, or the one whose campus card swipes at the dining hall dropped off entirely." Or, maybe, hire more human advisors?

Colleges are turning to early alert systems to improve retention, but autonomous tools are raising unresolved questions about privacy, mandatory reporting, and human oversight.

Faculty and academic staff already only tenuously protect educational value and degree integrity, and this “leadership” will ripple far beyond Harvard. Jane has been a crucial, clearheaded voice in adapting to a world with AI, shaping pedagogy and guiding scholars in asking the right questions.

Another day, another episode of the coverup of #Epstein files by 🤡's DoJ. Their stonewalling + lies routine is as ridiculous as ever, and one can only hope New Mexico's AG follows through on his threat to sue.
DoJ appears to ignore New Mexico deadline for key Epstein ranch files
State attorney general set 31 July deadline for documents relating to abuse of girls at Epstein-owned Zorro ranch

Let’s not forget that this illegal Reflecting Pool indictment was also overseen by Todd Blanche. He could have stopped this at any time, but he was a corrupt and willing accomplice to this fraud upon the court. How can any decent person possibly vote for this man as AG?
