So the whole thing has led to the days of a whisper campaign on the right being debunked; & conservatives turning on one another. Meanwhile, Talarico is recovered from the flu and back on the campaign trail.

Good for you if you missed this but if you want to be in the know: MAGA right has been pushing a conspiracy theory all day on X that Talarico checked into a mental health facility in Ohio. A MAGA activist appears to have lied to the facility about being a relative to get info & posted a recording.

As the Trump administration has relentlessly pursued immigrants, federal agents have run roughshod over the constitutional rights of U.S. citizens. We’re showing you every incident we’ve confirmed — along with the receipts: propub.li/3TBuddL
500+ U.S. citizens detained since the start of the second Trump administration. 100+ U.S. citizens held after agents questioned their citizenship. Nearly all of them were people of color. At least 70 American children and teens detained, some of whom were handcuffed. 36 U.S. citizens held for at least a day without being able to contact a lawyer or family.

Rarely do we see a situation where a public figure could have grounds for a real defamation suit (the bar is very high in the US) but by god these idiots might have actually cleared it. One guy involved said in a Twitter space that he hated Talarico and didn’t attempt to verify anything first.

BREAKING: Trump administration cut down more than 500 trees on Saturday at the East Potomac Golf Course after giving less than a full-day notice, with more tree-cutting planned, so plaintiffs challenging the effort went to court seeking a TRO tonight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
EMERGENCY MOTION FOR A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER OR, ALTERNATIVELY, FOR A 14-DAY STAY UNDER SECTION 705 OF THE
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT
Plaintiffs hereby move the Court to enter a 14-day temporary restraining order under Rule
65(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or, alternatively, for a 14-day stay under 5 U.S.C.
§ 705.
Despite the Court's admonitions not to "get to a point where someone is telling me, from
the government, that it's too late, too many things have happened and now we are, like, moving
Case 1:26-cv-00477-ACR
Document 76
Filed 10/11/26
Page 2 of 4
forward and we can't, you know, stop the trains," Status Conf. Tr. ("Apr. 13 Tr.") at 18:15-19:10,
Apr. 13, 2026, Defendants have begun irreversible damage to East Potomac Golf Course. At
4:55 p.m. on Friday preceding the holiday weekend, Defendants announced their intent to
begin-barely 12 hours later—a massive operation to clear 529 trees at East Potomac Golf
Course. Decl. of Dr. Kevin Griess, Superintendent of National Mall and Memorial Parks,
National Park Service 920, ECF 74-1. Although they initially represented that their work would proceed in stages, Defendants in fact took down 529 trees on Saturday alone and have confirmed
to Plaintiffs that they intend to take down hundreds more.
Defendants' surprise tree-razing operation constitutes classic National Environmental
Policy Act segmentation: undertaking elements of a larger project piecemeal and insisting that they are independent and therefore need not be evaluated in a single NEPA review of the entire
project. Defendants cannot circumvent their NEPA obligations in this manner. Delaware
Riverkeeper Network v. F.E.R.C., 753 F.3d 1304, 1313 (D.C. Cir. 2014).Therefore, and for the reasons explained in the Memorandum accompanying this Motion
and supporting exhibits, the Court should enter a 14-day temporary restraining order under Rule
65(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or, alternatively, a 14-day stay under 5 U.S.C.
§ 705, enjoining Defendants from any further tree felling at East Potomac Park. In addition, the
Court should order Defendants to provide the Court and Plaintiffs no less than three business days' written advance notice before any irreparable modification to any permanent forms or
features of East Potomac Park.
If the Court believes a hearing would be appropriate, Plaintiffs request a hearing on this
motion at the Court's first availability. At the parties' meet and confer on Sunday afternoon, Defendants represented that the tree-clearing operation would continue this week until
completed. Defendants indicated during the meet and confer that rain foreclosed any work on

Case 1:26-CV-00477-ACR Document 76 Filed 10/11/26 Page 4 of 4
Sunday, and that the possibility of doing work on Monday depended on weather and the course's
condition. Depending on Defendants' plans, then, it is possible that no work will occur on
Monday.

One understated part of the Trump administration is just how much the vibes in the city suck. DOGE significantly harmed the city's economy, National Guard troops patrol the city and Trump's rebranding of the Kennedy Center and reflecting pool make tourist sites feel so different.

I am quoted by Annie M. Lowrey, staff writer at The Atlantic, in her new book The Time Tax published August 25, 2026 by HarperCollins.

To the best of my knowledge I was not contacted by the author or publisher, or any representatives of either, for fact checking. The book refers to me as “he” — I’m nonbinary, use they/them, and have been openly out  since 2022.

Saying the war "never would have happened" if Donald Trump was president is not only a lie, it's possible that by signaling that the US was weak on Ukraine--by demonstrating that a president could illicitly halt aid, and that our government wouldn't actually hold him accountable--he helped cause it.

I realize that asking people to remember 2019 is impossible, since it was a million years ago, but you may recall Donald Trump's first impeachment, which happened because he withheld $400 million in aid to Ukraine because he asked Zelenskyy to investigate Biden (among other things).

Intelligence is not a universal solvent. It doesn't fix everything. The people pushing these ideas only believe this is true because they desperately want it to be true. They want the world to be much, much simpler than it actually is. But we live in a complicated world, and that's a good thing.

Same thing goes for the AI utopia/accelerationist/singularity story, which is basically the same as the AI doom story. There are plenty of problems that don't yield to increased intelligence. A lack of intelligence is not why we have a climate crisis or no durable peace in the Middle East.

It's important to remember that the AI doom scenario assumes not only that intelligence is a single well-defined thing, but also that intelligence solves literally every single problem, and that in every conflict overwhelming intelligence always wins. This is just not how anything works.
