Yo!

@hankgreen.bsky.social I’m a bit worried about the people playing Smush today…

Democrats would never do that. Why? Because they’re scared of being held accountable for delivering (or not delivering) what they campaign on. Republicans love state-level supermajorities that can override Dem governor vetoes. Democrats fear that kind of power to override Republican Govs.

Trump: "The Democrats are gonna terminate the filibuster as soon as they have a chance and then they're gonna approve DC and Puerto Rico as states. They get 4 more senators, 12 more congressmen, like 40 electoral votes ... you don't want to see me cry."

The morbid truth here is that even if they spent 5B on it and came up with nothing they’d still claim it’s “out there”. It’s like UFO true believers.

Gillian Branstetter

RFK Jr. asked the National Institute of Health to dedicate $5 billion (!) to finding a link between vaccines and autism. "That would have dedicated more than a tenth of the NIH’s annual budget to investigating a hypothesis already refuted by scientists worldwide."

Once you realize they’re on the same side, it becomes clear why these headlines are written this way.

Hamilton Nolan

News organizations should periodically stop and look in the mirror and ask themselves “Have we internalized copspeak to the point that our headlines indistinguishable from police department email subject lines?”

While we’re at it, why don’t we rename it? Hormuz isn’t a great name. Qatari Quagmire? Crude Checkpoint? 7-11 Strait? Gulf of America.. oh wait.

Aaron Rupar

Trump: "The USA will be, from this point forward, known as 'THE GUARDIAN OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT,' but as such, and as a matter of FAIRNESS, will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped, for costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security ... "

What would it take for journalists in America to do this? Access journalism, and whatever you call journalism where you withhold critical bits of knowledge for your upcoming book, is a rot on our society.

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

When Mark Sanford disappeared for a few days in 2009 it was a huge nationwide scandal. The media is asleep at the wheel these days.

there are very few jobs in the world where you can disappear for weeks without providing an explanation, and "member of congress" should not be one of them, imo

The DSA can use this as a playbook - find these districts with long term incumbents who are just coasting and then primary them with actual effort, ground game, etc. they won’t win them all but they’ll win a lot of them.

The Associated Press

Democratic socialist Melat Kiros beat U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette in a Colorado House primary, a stunning victory for the first-time candidate against a nearly 30-year incumbent. More at bit.ly/4oXXhaw

I feel like Apple is fudging the numbers on my laptop battery health. I started monitoring my battery health six months before warranty expiration, it went from 85% to 82%. Now, three months out from warranty expiration it’s going up. It’s magically back up to 85%. Call the Pope, it’s a miracle.

Last fall, I spent 45 minutes writing a demand charge calculator. Where you upload your usage info and it’ll tell you what your demand charge would be. They’ve had almost a year. I did it in 45 minutes. www.nvdemandcharge.info

“If this new charge is too complicated for the utility company to calculate our bills after nine months, how could ratepayers ever expect to reasonably predict our own bills?” asked Jackie Spicer of the Nevada Environmental Justice Coalition.

Radical campaign finance reform is what will do the most to restore “we, the people”. This is a great start.

Robert Reich

Hawaii just passed the first state law in the country banning corporations from making political donations in state elections. Now a Koch-backed legal group is suing to overturn it. Big Money won't get out of our politics without a fight — one that we the people must win. (via @levernews.com)

Questions I’d like to see asked of Lombardo: What are the three biggest Nevada industries affected by the tariffs? What percentage of Nevadans live below the poverty line?

Aaron Rupar

Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo punts on whether he supports Trump's tariffs: "I don't know all the nuances of foreign policy associated with that and tariffs and how it directly affects, uh, Nevada."

If someone tried to put this up on bus stops or billboards in the US, those owning and controlling those spaces would reject it as being too divisive. 🙄

I’ve developed a competing AI Literacy curriculum. Don’t use it. Everything on the internet is extremely suspicious, don’t trust anything.

Hypervisible

A bill “introduced by Democratic Senator of California Adam Schiff and endorsed by the biggest AI developers in the world—including OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft—would change the K-12 curriculum to shoehorn in ‘AI literacy, something that young people and teachers alike already hate in schools.”
