This video appears to confirm it was a Russian air-defense missile — not a Ukrainian drone — that blew up that Moscow refinery’s storage tank today, creating the "flying saucer" footage. (This video was shared on Telegram by Russian military expert Yan Matveev.) t.me/arrowsmap/11...

The Deputy Attorney General just rescinded the policy against no knock warrants in most cases. That policy was an important public safety measure. Restricting their use saved lives. Breonna Taylor died because of one. www.cnn.com/2022/02/22/u...

A postal worker in Minnesota died from a stroke while in police custody. He was arrested for driving erratically and being completely disoriented while being interviewed by police. They assumed he was intoxicated while his brain hemorrhaged to the point of herniation

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.
Jason Delgado (Florida Capitol reporter for Spectrum News 13) on X: "Quick look at what inside a detainment tent looks like here at Alligator Alcatraz." What is shown in the picture is a long tent structure, about 50 feet wide. There is a corridor running down the middle. On each side are three rows of bunk beds. The bunk beds are sectioned off into cells which are constructed out of chain link fence, with chain link on the ceiling as well, making each cell a literal cage. It looks to me like each cell contains 9 bunk beds, so has capacity for 18 people each.

They call public schools “government schools” so you won’t trust them. They call it “school choice” to make it sound like you have one. They whine about “parental rights” when they’re rights you already have. They call them school vouchers instead of what they are- discounts for the wealthy.

No. This was a procedural order based on standing. There are plenty of folks who have standing, like fired federal workers, so this challenge will be refiled by EOD if it hasn't been already. I really need journalists - including those who write social media posts - to get some basic legal literacy.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income
This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.
