Of recent interest here in Minnesota is that ICE is releasing detainees to satisfy Habeas requests, and then immediately detaining again. This really ought to be national news.

Trump’s Justice Department is rewriting the history of Watergate. And this time, they’re casting Richard Nixon as the hero. It sounds like an Onion headline. But it’s not. Please watch & share. youtube.com/shorts/2DKoT...

Listen: I don’t want to minimize the danger of high e-bike speeds. But if the problem here is that stores sell e-bikes that can drive faster than legal limits, then where’s the story about how literally *every car dealership has been doing the same thing for decades*?!?

Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

Trump officials are drafting an executive order that would give the White House control over NIH grants. This would allow Trump to reject research projects that do not align with his political agenda. Making health research political isn't just stupid - it could be deadly.

Yes! Image a future where parents put their kids in driverless cars to take them to school while they themselves get in different cars to go to work. Instead of one or two cars chaining trips, now you might have four separate cars making four separate trips. Would be a disaster at scale.

I refuse to believe these people are this dumb and don't understand why otherwise healthy people would carry health insurance even if they never or rarely file a claim. They're just lying about the ACA as a pretext for getting rid of it. Vote accordingly this November.

The existence of New York City natives Donald Trump, Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams, and Rudy Giuliani is a good counterargument to the idea that being born here equates to some sort of inherent goodness or virtue.
