Would love to comment on this post, but am unable to? What prevents Trump from doing the same for every government building, roadway, bridge, etc. he can't get his name on.

Can't comment on protected post. UM grad that now DGAF about football (tho remember feeling robbed in having to share a National Championship with Nebraska, so I get it). With an entire season to play, put an asterisk after the rightfully disputed result. Check syncing of clocks from now on.

Watched the Lake name change before my very eyes on the Google Maps app right before I deleted the app. Will use Apple Maps and downloaded Waze to try.

Hey Jim Jordan and Freedom Caucus just checking in to see if the same idea applies? You wanted to see the side car agreement from Obama and opposed the money he gave Iran. How is that today?

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...
So let me say it as clearly as I can: Without basic scientific research, supported by the kind of farsighted public investment that allows large-scale, undirected, curiosity-driven inquiry, the scientific pipeline will run dry.
In daily life, people may not feel the effects right away, or even in 10 years. But we will feel it. And when someone we love needs therapies that could have emerged but didn't or when other countries now
investing in science can launch new science-based industries or run their societies on vast resources of fusion energy or reap the benefits of quantum computing power or advanced medical breakthroughs, America will wish it sustained its leadership in scientific research here and now.
Sally Kornbluth is the president of MIT.

This is not going to go well for Trump. Bullying tactics won't work. Will Trump threaten to put tariffs on Vatican Press books and rosaries? Post AI images of bombing St. Peter's Basilica? Cant even go after the Pope's kids to accuse them of anything. Trump is screwed.

Every time some right wing fucker talks about migrants who commit crimes, I go ask them why they're not commenting on the crimes that Jan6ers have gone onto commit (two have been arrested this week). This guy features prominently.

The Trump Administration claims the Treasury has authority over Venezuelan assets. I asked Treasury Secretary Bessent directly what grants him this authority. He seemed to have no idea that he controlled these assets, let alone the authority behind them.

Absolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.

“protesters” are not “clashing” with law enforcement. violent federal agents have waged war on minneapolis and regular people are telling them to get the fuck out. and last time i checked being in a group chat doesn’t mean you’re in a professional organization. it means you have friends.

His rationalization for this is that SOME of the Somali refugees in MN have been found guilty of some type of fraud. But SOME people of every demographic and citizenship/immigration status there is have committed crimes. But we know what this is really about and it’s NOT crime.
