The president is making US policy friendlier to North Korea and Russia than Canada and Oman. Are you kidding me?

"Governing via conspiracy theories, personal whim and wish-casting, Trump has taken his place as the most consistently inept president of this century. At home and abroad, in many cabinet and sub-cabinet agencies, the administration’s culture is dominated by incompetence" per historian Matt Dallek

in Denver (underground) music festival news, the UMS is coming back, but not in Baker anymore. Lots of mixed emotions, I went to maybe 20 of the 25 on Broadway, change is hard (change is good?) denverite.com/2026/02/09/u...

Why a big move for Denver’s longest-lived music festival is drawing mixed reactions
While many were relieved to see the Underground Music Showcase live on, others saw a betrayal of Broadway.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

In their first debate, Weiser accuses Bennet of not fighting Trump enough, and Bennet accuses Weiser of exaggerating his role in the battle.

When historians attempt to analyse the wreckage of American democracy, they'll see Jan 6 as the moment that the brakes failed. It's clear that, in the days that followed, many tried to bring Trump's wreckless momentum to a halt, but when they hit the pedal, there was nothing there.

It is hard to overstate how critical @ncar-ucar.bsky.social is to climate science in the US and around the world. It's the beating heart of our field. Generations of scientists have trained there, and almost everyone I know relies on deep collaborations with NCAR scientists. It's end is unthinkable.
