This is what happens when the Attorney General of the United States also happens to be the president’s personal lawyer. It’s utterly wrong, but Trump can do it because we don’t have a Congress.
I wish establishment Dems would be this crafty when dealing with Republicans, but I guess they only play dirty with progressives.
This is the 2019 primaries all over again.
Do y’all get what is happening? If abdul wins this primary, they will work to take him down like they are doing to Graham platner. They hate the left more than they do republicans
Meta's HR chief has confirmed the company will cut 10% of its workforce tomorrow.
8,000 workers will lose their jobs via email sent at 4 a.m., according to the executive.
She also confirmed that Meta will move more than 7,000 people to work on new projects around AI.
The New York Times continues to serve up neoliberal slop on a platter. The only reason they’re going after Platner like this is because he’s against the US-Israeli war machine.
When most of Congress is voting to send more bombs to a fascist genocidal baby-killing death cult called Israel, I don’t really care whether Platner is difficult in relationships.
Rep. Adam Smith (D-Washington), top ranking Democrat on the committee, says that of course he does not like Netanyahu (like all good Democrats say now) but that "we benefit from that technology partnership..Israel's been actually having to fight."
This is known as the "Palestine Laboratory." Israeli weapons are tested in real time on the bodies of Palestinians, which the Israeli weapons industry uses in its marketing. Smith is arguing that we should benefit from that human experimentation too.
New York officially has become the first US state to mandate disclosures for AI-generated people in commercial advertisements, effective June 9, per ABC
The federal government just banned bison from public land in Montana.
Not cattle.
Bison.
Interior Secretary Burgum revoked grazing permits for 950 bison
on 63,000 acres of federal land in northeastern Montana.
The reason?
Bison raised for conservation don't count as livestock
under a 1934 law.
Bison raised for meat and milk? Fine.
Bison raised to restore a native species to its native land? Get out.
Meanwhile, cattle ranchers across the West keep grazing on your land.
For $1.69 a month.
One cow. One calf. Thirty days. $1.69.
On land that belongs to every American.
The Cheyenne River Sioux. The Coalition of Large Tribes —
50+ Native nations. Defenders of Wildlife.
They all filed formal protests.
They called it exactly what it is.
"DEI for cows."
The bison have until September 30 to be gone.
Who decided cattle belong on public land more than bison do?

16 Trump-appointed EPA officials were paid over $2.8 million by chemical companies before they joined the agency.

Congressional Black Caucus Chair, Rep. Yvette Clarke, says she did not encourage Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz to run in a redrawn district, as some FL Democrats condemn the choice.
@patriach2051 The fact that lottery winnings are taxed but capital gains are NOT taxed if you die with the asset says all you need to know about what's wrong with American taxes.
So… thinking about how much worse trump made our country as a result of waging war and how, maybe, JUST MAYBE the Constitution says wars must be voted on by Congress for this exact reason - so corrupt madmen with dementia can’t declare a ruinous war for personal gain.
I love how Republicans get to choose which court rulings they will listen to and which ones they won’t listen to, and somehow were supposed to be so thankful for their magnanimous choice to occasionally abide by the Constitution.
"This whole plan is going to crash and burn. It's either going to happen politically or it's going to happen legally," @eliehonig predicts about the DOJ's $1.8 billion fund.
The DOJ said Monday it will abide by a court ruling temporarily pausing payouts from President Trump's $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund that could have gone to Jan. 6 defendants and some of his supporters. @ElizLanders reports. https://t.co/sKTZgMcCYh
