Donald Trump's self-serving massive fireworks display on July 4 may cause the worst air pollution and public health disaster in Washington DC history, especially when combined with the extreme heat wave. Stay indoors, stay away, wear an N95 mask (you still have them, right, because of Covid?).

They’re so happy about it. Destroying Black political power is all they ever wanted.

But videos have also captured the animus and glee with which largely white
Republican caucuses throughout the South have carried out Mr. Trump's request for widespread gerrymandering. William Arnold, the director of justice and re-entry programs at the advocacy group Memphis for All, said the experience of watching the Republicans vote on the maps in Nashville left him shaken. "They were laughing.
Laughing and smiling," he said. He described it as "one of the most jarring experiences of my life."

I have my issues with US automakers. But they *did* try to welcome EVs — Ford has lost $19.5 billion since 2022 trying to build EVs. The issue is US consumer tastes, status quo US policy, and a legitimately tricky Christensen-style Innovators Dilemma that afflicts more than just US automakers.

Weiss's shtick of saying "shouldn't we unpack this further?" when someone has been summarily detained in a foreign gulag but refusing to say "shouldn't we unpack this further?" when desperate parents are sending their children to get a rare form of controversial healthcare is so effing grating

If I'm running a news room now, I assign everyone who has done piece on Biden's final-years fitness-to-govern, and have them apply same standards here. (Once heard Bill Clinton give 45-minute ad-hoc on what diff *counties* in Arkansas had done in Civil War. Trump doesn't know WHAT YEAR it was.)

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

A lesson from the TikTok Affair should be that bipartisan efforts to preserve U.S. national security are vulnerable to the incoming president getting bought off and switching sides for his own personal and political benefit. Not great!
