NEW: When Sen. Andy Kim was hit w/pepper smoke outside the Delaney Hall detention center, standing next to him was a UU minister. She was hit too, as were at least 2 other faith leaders. They're part of a group of faith leaders who've been there for roughly a year. religionnews.com/2026/06/04/p...

Pepper-sprayed yet undeterred: Faith leaders keep ministering at Delaney Hall
(RNS) — ‘We are called by our faith to put our bodies on the line if that’s the call,’ said the Rev. Robin Tanner, a Unitarian Universalist minister.

We are not angry enough--a whistleblower provided evidence a DOGE brat stole social sec data & sold it to a Palantir contractor. Our data is used to sell services back to the govt at taxpayer expense for big profits. That is OUR data. Instead of investigating the whisteblower is threatened 😠

So folks understand the problems with the New York Times didn’t just start under Trump. The Times was the top promoter of invading Iraq (far more influential than Fox News) and it forwarded smears of the Clintons and Al Gore. The Times even did PR for Adolf Hitler before WWII. The problem isn’t new.

You might be able to buy into SpaceX's public debut more easily thanks to changes around one major brokerage's account minimums.

Retail investors have to have $2,000 in their brokerage account for the opportunity to access SpaceX shares at its IPO through Fidelity. That marks a major shift from previous rules around IPO participation where investors needed to have as much as $500,000 or in assets depending on the IPO.

"The SpaceX IPO may be available to Fidelity customers with as little as $2,000 in a retail brokerage account, lower than typical IPO requirements due to increased share availability," the brokerage outlined.

This ruling is horrendous. According to the court, individuals with profound cognitive disabilities cannot be "deprived" of liberty because their disability limits their ability to experience freedom. This is dehumanising in the extreme.
