"An emotional former USAID employee recounts how 500 pounds of food destined for starving children was already on the ground but could not be distributed because of the government veto, meaning it was allowed to pass its expiration date and then be destroyed."

Texas has suspended over 1.2 million voter registrations. Many valid voters in Texas have found their voter registrations were somehow canceled when they checked. Check your registration here and fix it immediately - Texas doesn't always honor provisional ballots cast on election day.

Apparently the Spurs do have the best rim protector in the NBA. It's Luke Kornet of course.

Honestly, I'm upset, but we played a solid game (aside from the atrocious start). Wemby went nuts, and the Spurs were the better team by a little bit. I didn't like a few calls, but they let us play really physical on D for much of the game. We can hang with the Spurs. On to game 4!

Breaking: Tennessee Republicans pass new 9-0 gerrymander after SCOTUS destruction of Voting Rights Act eliminating state’s only majority-Black district & last Democratic seat. Splits Memphis, which is 63% Black, into 3 districts to disenfranchise Black voters. Quite literally a return to Jim Crow

Ayo hit 2 free throws with 17 seconds left to go up 14. I'm sure Denver dribbled the ball out, right? Nope. Jamal Murray launched a stepback 3 pointer with 10 seconds remaining. So they get to score meaningless points as the clock runs out, but not us!

Got a project at work. Everyone decided we would use AI to do it faster and better. We have had hours of meetings with people sitting around trying to figure out how to do it with AI. It's still not working, but at least we wasted hours of time that could have been spent doing the work ourselves.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Super weird how they said metro surge is done and yet I just saw someone get pulled out of their car by ICE and then got followed for a bit before they got bored. They’re going hard today, be safe everyone.

All right. Time to get his ass out of the Oval Office. Dems need to push impeachment. We should be throwing everything we got. We don't need to find the centrist compromise between us and calling the Obamas apes.

Kwesi was not perfect obviously, but I don't like people mis-remembering his record. It's fair to criticize his FA misses (Hargrave/Allen). But then also give credit for the hits: Greenard/Van Ginkel/Cashman. Someone said those were Flo's guys so he gets credit. Kwesi made it happen! That's his job!

At least one of the newly released Epstein file is already down. This link no longer appears to work (www.justice.gov/epstein/file...) It contained an FBI email chain outlining an allegation against Trump involving sexual activities with a child. This is a screenshot from that email chain.

(1/3) The thing I keep thinking about... One lesson I take from the Holocaust is that it doesn't happen overnight. It begins with dehumanization of the Other. Once people believe the Other is subhuman, then they don't care what is happening to them. They're being rounded up and shipped off?

Speaking of children not being able to walk to school, ICE agents are snatching kids off the streets of Minneapolis (and St. Paul!) and parents are having to form patrols to guard against kids getting abducted at pick-up and drop-off.
