1. Major news. The Maine trans sports and bathroom ban referendum will NOT appear on the November ballot, baring an appeal. It turns out the paid-by-signature gatherers submitted potentially fraudulently collected, improper, or even forged signatures. Our latest report.

Billionaire-Funded Anti-Trans Bathroom/Sports Ban Ballot Initiative Moves Forward In Maine
The ballot initiative is bankrolled by billionaire anti-trans donor, Richard Uihlein, and represents a new line of attack against transgender people in blue states.

Here's half the brood of newborn Gambel's quail scampering this morning. That's mom or dad on the far right, on lookout for predators. Each chick is the size of a walnut. #birds

You know you're in trouble when the official defending you from war crime charges often uses Nazi slogans (in German so you won't mistake it for coincidence) on X, calls Robert E. Lee, "One of the greatest Americans to ever live," and traffics in antisemitic conspiracy theories.

A new law will make it harder to sue agricultural operations for the climate harms caused by their emissions. Is anyone trying to do so?

... Fortunately, I've located a picture of an actual threatening gorilla (right) that had visited the White House during a previous administration. It seems pretty clear that my description was accurate and so absent of malice. Thank you for your attention to this matter. #Trump #Gorilla

Two hours after posting this yesterday morning, it was out of date. Here's the most recent totals of Lebanese killed and wounded by Israeli bombs and missiles. I'm sure it'll be outdated in hours -- unless the US demands that Israel stops. #Lebanon #Trump #War #Israel

Pope to Olympic Athletes: “It is possible to win without humiliating. One can lose without losing oneself. And this also applies beyond sport. It applies in social life, in politics, in relationships between peoples, because sport, if lived well, becomes a workshop for a reconciled humanity.”

I suppose every American (who isn't blinded by unquestioning patriotism) in the last 75 years or so has their own "moment" of realization that their country's superpower status is waning. For me it was the Vietnam War. When was that moment for you?

Asked about Israel's continued bombing of Lebanon despite the ceasefire, Trump dismissed the question. "That's a separate skirmish," he said.

Seems like a good time for the media to run their ‘get every elected official on the record about whether they think the President is fit for office’ playbook. It was all they were doing in June-July 2024, so we know they know how.

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

Trump warns ‘a whole civilization will die’ if Iran doesn’t make a deal
The president had issued a deadline of 8 p.m. Eastern time for Iran to open up the Strait of Hormuz, pledging destruction by midnight if leaders don’t comply.
