For those not following NJ politics, please know that the Lt Gov resigned a few days ago because a report came out saying he did serial harassment, and yesterday he went on TV to say "i put that report through multiple AIs and they told me it wasn't sexual harassment." Former university president

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge just HALTED the destruction of Big Bend. This is a massive victory for the landowners, local communities, and everyday Texans who stood up to protect one of our state's greatest treasures. The fight isn't over, but today, the people won.
Graphic from the Center for Biological Diversity over a scenic view of Big Bend. Large text reads, “MASSIVE WIN FOR BIG BEND.” Below, it says a federal judge has frozen all destruction throughout the Big Bend region until the project’s legality can be determined in court. The graphic adds that the Center will continue fighting to save Big Bend and asks supporters to join them.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Professional tourist guide here. All of us who work in travel and tourism are seeing lower numbers and getting less work. There used to be busloads of Canadian visitors in NYC, but not anymore. Spaniards are staying away because of ICE raids too. It is across the board and across the country.

My Italian mother in law was staying with us when our daughter lost her first tooth. We explained the American concept of the tooth fairy to her, so she left the first gift—$50! We had to explain to our daughter it was only for FIRST tooth, the rest would be $1. We had to do it for our son too 🦷🧚🏻‍♀️💸
