From 15,000 to 185 to Zero: Trump’s Claims of Illegal Voting in Nevada Fizzle
It was the Trump administration’s latest stumble in its effort to find proof of widespread noncitizen voting, despite decades of evidence that it is extremely rare.

Thank you all for the support & love. I’m in awe of your fierce defense of democracy. I’m sorry for the inconvenience with the dial-in. There are so many of you who care about truth & transparency you broke the system. And that’s what we need: break it down to build something better than before. 🔥

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

To explain the significance of this, Anthropic moved enterprises to token-based billing in Q1 2026. This is at most four months of having to pay the true cost of their token burn and they’re already begging for mercy. AI has a revenue ceiling and an economic mismatch with its customer base.

As I've been anticipating, Cole Allen is moving to recuse Todd Blanche and (especially) Jeanine Pirro. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Here, there is—at the very least—the appearance of partiality that
necessitates the recusal of U.S. Attorney Pirro and Acting AG Blanche. Both heard
gunshots, which presumably forced them to duck below the tables with the rest of the
occupants. They were quickly evacuated. Shortly thereafter, they learned that law
enforcement believed the target was certain administration officials.
It is the government’s theory that Mr. Allen’s alleged conduct “risked the lives
of hundreds of people” attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. ECF 10
at 13. And it is the government that alleges that had Mr. Allen been “successful,” he
could have “destabilized the entire federal government, given the number of highranking government officials”—including U.S. Attorney Pirro and Acting A.G.
Blanche. Their active involvement in the prosecution of Mr. Allen therefore creates
grave concerns about whether they are making prosecutorial decisions as
representatives of the government or as witnesses.

This is Gemini. She's at the vet because she keeps flying away. Luckily it's just a harmless case of airplane ears. 12/10 (IG: apolloandgem)
a little black and white corgi puppy sits on the stainless steel table at a vet’s office. the wall behind her is a vibrant cyan, contrasting the silhouette of her big black ears sticking out at a diagonal angle. her eyes are somewhat plaintive or concerned as she waits to hear her diagnosis, and a burnt orange leash hangs down over the edge of the table, presumably to catch her if she starts to float off again.
