Seriously? This banner is at the top of cms.gov (and I assume other federal sites right now). Unless I'm missing something, this is a pretty obvious violation of the Hatch act, no?

These six characters do a remarkably effective job of summarizing the massive self-inflicted wound our nation is engaging in.

So DHS chases a guy onto private property, refuses to show id or a warrant while forcing themselves in, and arrests employees for "assault" for refusing entry. No probable cause, no warrant, just profiling. Staff calls 911, and the Ontario CA PD does... nothing. And their "statement" is horseshit.
A message from the Ontario Police Department:
"This morning, at approximately 9:45a.m., our officers responded to the possible assault of a federal law enforcement officer in the 500 block of West Holt Blvd. Upon arrival, our officers confirmed that the individuals involved were federal agents acting in an official capacity as they attempted to apprehended a wanted individual. This represented the entirety of our department's role in the situation."

How did I miss this way back in 2017? The UK Sunday Herald's TV listing for the Trump inauguration casts it as a Twilight Zone episode featuring an implausible alternate history.
Tongue-in-cheek listing for the 2017 presidential inauguration, casting it as a wildly-implausible Twilight Zone episode.

I have been trying to dig up this image for a while, as it seems more apropos than ever. It perfectly captures what we're living now; the sheer incompetence and idiocy. Trump would certainly hate it, so please share broadly! (artist: Christian Bloom, Verdens Gang)

Are we ever going to stop listening to Murkowski (or Collins) when they performatively hand-wring over the awful bills she's asked to vote on, then always fall into line with the party in the end? Just listened to her on a podcast sounding thoughtful and reasonable, but she's clearly full of shit.

A small palate cleanser between your regularly scheduled hourly doses of horrors. I just learned about the turn-of-the-century "Doves Type" font, and it's brilliant: typespec.co.uk/doves-type/ Its history is even more fascinating: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGv7...

Maybe you can ask them for a full explanation for the representative's view on the proper 'murican consumption of all nodes on the cuberule.com graph?

Happy #tauday to those who celebrate! State of the 𝜏: www.tauday.com/state-of-the... The 𝜏 manifesto: www.tauday.com/tau-manifesto I particularly liked this simple visual proof that 𝜏 is just a bit over 6, based on the limit of tesselating a circle.
A unit circle tesselated by a hexagon, demonstrating that all segments are of unit length, as are the radii that connect their vertices to the center. Taking the limit of the sum of the lengths of tesselated segments, as the number of segments goes to infinity, you will get 𝜏!

Sounds like a dark take on an 80s comedy...
"Weekend at Donnie's" movie poster. A play on the 80s movie, but with Russ Vought and Stephen Miller propping up Trump at the podium.

Seeing this fool stand up in front of a podium unaware (and uncaring) of the havoc his regime is wreaking, while we're all aware of the ghouls pulling the strings... All I could think was "This is like a really dark sequel to Weekend at Bernie's". (Yes, it's AI slop, but I couldn't help myself)

My grandfather, Fred Dingler, just before going off to fight in WWII. He was a tail-gunner on a B-17, shot down over Germany in 1944, and spent the rest of the war in Stalag Luft IV in Poland. He hated Nazis and autocrats, and if he were around to see the regime today, he'd have been frothing mad!

I appreciate the WaPo publishing these letters. And yet, here's their Sunday front page the day after the protests. It was really disheartening to see the WaPo, NY Times, and many other front pages with little to no mention of the protests: j15r.com/projects/pro...
