As successful as I assume Branson is, this level of talent deserves so much more. Uncomfortable levels of success and prosperity.

If you believe it’s important to keep the contested MI Senate seat out of Republican hands, realize that the exact same people who are donating to Haley Stevens to prevent Abdul El-Sayed from the Democratic nomination will be donating to the Republicans in the general.

its really ramped up in the last week with a lot of influencers parroting the same “she’s growing on me!” language, its been very blatant but probably impacting the election for those less tuned in

A dark money campaign is offering influencers $1,500 per post to attack Abdul El-Sayed and support Haley Stevens. Same exact dollar figure that was paid to attack @katmabu.bsky.social (Nobody ever found out who was paying for that campaign.) Gross, lazy and above all cynical shit.

Police murdered a Black man in the street in Madison WI today. Shot point blank in the head while on the ground, tased, and surrounded by four cops. It looks like an execution. Multiple videos circulating online. Things are about to get very bad here.

Scorching hot take but I don’t think stupid people should have access to the news.

About 24% of U.S. employees stay in unwanted jobs just for health insurance, a report out Wednesday finds. Up significantly since 2021, the uptick in "job lock" is a concerning sign for the U.S. economy. n.pr/4gQIY5E

BREAKING NYT: Federal agents around the country were told in recent days that the FBI would no longer investigate confrontations with immigration agents — cases that sometimes yield evidence that could be used to prosecute DHS agents implicated in violent encounters.

I did this really crappy escape room the other day where the solution to every puzzle and challenge was just to break everything with a hammer. I was pretty lucky that I just so happened to bring my own hammer, otherwise I don’t think I could have finished it.

I fuckin made up a book, outlined the plot of the made up book, and then wrote a 5 page in class essay about it all during one period because I forgot that we had 3 weeks to pick and read the book in preparation for the in class essay

Amid all the corruption, this is especially gross: the billions Congress/Biden approved to build fiber internet in places left behind has been redirected to Elon Musk & Jeff Bezos for doing nothing. Musk has pocketed $738 million so far. Places like rural Louisiana were screwed.

We can see this in the ICE flight data. Domestic “round-up” flights are spiking, and some activist flight watchers report the flights are getting fuller. But deportation and removal flights remain steady. This means the concentration camps are getting packed to the brim. It’s awful to comprehend.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 4w ago

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

That's right, we are still fighting about a Trump admin birth control rule *from 2017.* The Biden admin waited until 2023 to try and reverse it, and had to withdraw the attempt because time ran out. Many such cases in the reproductive health space...

NEW: The Trump administration is in court today seeking to reinstate rules that would allow virtually any employer and university to *stop covering* birth control in their insurance plans. All they'd have to do is claim a religious or moral objection to contraception. More in @autonomynews.co
