NEW: California is teeming with black-market dairies, propped up by consumer demand fueled by misinformation. With evidence against one raw goat milk farm, regulators could have sought punitive action. But that’s not what happened.

My own (probably naive) take is that the immigration views/attacks as envisioned by Trump and far-right diehards have very little resonance beyond the right-wing base. That they are now a layer of our atmosphere reflects the disproportionate power those folks have in politics and media.

The most notable thing of the last so hours and the Schmitt-Hawkeye screw up of epic proportions, is how Trumpites are primed to pump out any narrative handed to them without thought or reflection. It’s Putinesque.

We're so back - Elon Musk came to the White House for a very important meeting!
What was the topic of discussion?We talked for hours, figuring out the key to saving the MAGA movement. We went through every possibility, looking far and wide for answers.
Once we figured it out, I began typing this email out to you.

If you need a refresher about the issues involved in release of Vol. 2 of Jack Smith’s report, you’re not alone. The case was briefed months ago, but has been sitting on the court’s docket waiting for oral argument. I wrote about it back then: joycevance.substack.com/p/trumps-pas...

grandpa is talking crazy about the TV again
Why does FoxNews always put Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, Jessica Tarlov, and every Democrat on, saying bad things about the Republican Party and, of course, me? I actually think they get more airtime than Pro Republicans. This is why MAGA, and REAL Patriots, will never like Fox! They repeat a completely negative narrative, on and on it goes, and then we get a quick retort. It’s truly amazing that I won all three Elections. The opposition is enormous, but the fight goes on!

A few hundred noncitizen votes are a national scandal. But when states reject hundreds of thousands of ballots from eligible voters, it’s business as usual
One state rejected ballots because some voters failed to include their mother’s maiden name on the back of the return envelope.

Another way of making this point: The wheels may be coming off the Trump administration and the authoritarian movement energizing it. But a large tractor-trailer barreling down a highway at full speed whose wheels come loose is very dangerous to innocent people in the vicinity.

The whole point of art is there's so much out there that you can find what you're curious about and think you would be into. It's not to follow the tastes of the mainstream crowd. That's just about serving the will of corporations and self-appointed cultural gatekeepers. Which is boring as hell.

A familiar story for anyone who follows @volts.wtf. “The Chronicle spoke to more than half a dozen grid experts…to try to understand why Texas’s notoriously unreliable grid had a remarkably reliable summer. The answer was unanimous: solar panels and batteries.”

Texas shattered energy demand records this summer. Here's why the grid held up.
Texas repeatedly broke electricity demand records this summer, but ERCOT avoided emergencies as booming solar and battery capacity helped keep the grid stable.
