This shows the best of this FBI when on Tuesday, June 2nd, a subject Anthony Scott Searles-Harris in Bakersfield, California barricaded himself in the Kern County Superintendent of Schools office armed with explosives and took ten innocent people hostage.
Immediately, FBI jumped into action mobilizing resources, including launching our CIRG Hostage Rescue Team – FBI’s elite tier 1 tactical unit – who flew across the country in the middle of the night preparing for a high-risk, life-saving mission. FBI Sacramento, FBI Los Angeles, and our teams across the country utilized more than 150 additional FBI personnel including SWAT, crises negotiators, Special Agent Bomb Technicians, and more.
After an intense nearly 15-hour negotiation, FBI HRT teams successfully breached the building around 4:30am local time, neutralized the subject, and safely recovered all hostages unharmed. This was simply outstanding work by the men and women of the FBI with our partners at the Bakersfield Police Department who executed the mission brilliantly and saved at least 10 lives in a situation that could’ve turned dire.
Elon Musk saw through Instagram’s illusion and deleted it.
He told Joe Rogan he caught himself taking selfies for likes and thought, “What the hell is wrong with me?”
That moment made him realize the app is engineered to make everyone look hotter, richer, and happier than they actually are. The endless comparison game quietly breeds unhappiness and insecurity. It’s especially toxic for young people growing up on it.
Elon’s decision to step away shows real self-awareness and discipline — something Instagram actively works against.
Have you quit or heavily reduced Instagram and felt better for it? Or do you think the platform does more harm than good overall?
“Never gossip about your man. Ever.”
Whitney Cummings dropped this on Modern Wisdom and it stopped me cold. No venting to girlfriends, no public roasts on double dates — especially not while he’s sitting there. Take it to a therapist instead.
Even as a comic who roasts for a living, she won’t cross that line anymore. We’ve gotten way too comfortable turning our partners into content.
That quiet public disrespect might be killing more relationships than we admit.
What’s one boundary like this that saved (or could save) yours?
Andrew Schulz and Charlamagne notice something “crazy” about breakfast foods and ADHD. 😂
SCHULZ: “They would feed us f*cking Cookie Crisp, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Cocoa Pebbles at 7:30 and then expect us to sit down and pay attention at elementary school.”
CHARLAMAGNE: “Why you try to put us on Ritalin? Tell us we got ADHD, but you gave us all that sugar in the f*cking morning.”
SCHULZ: “Exactly!”
“So now you got every kid on f*cking Ritalin because you’re popping us full of sugar in the morning.”
CHARLAMAGNE: “You got the nerve to be mad at me because I’m pulling fire alarms just to run outside the fucking classroom?”
SCHULZ: “You’re giving a 12-year-old a line of coke and then asking him to learn f*cking geography.”
CHARLAMAGNE: “Telling me to sit still!”
SCHULZ: “F*ck outta here, sit still!”
CHARLAMAGNE: “I cannot even control my little adolescent body. You’re giving me all this sugar, but I got to just sit here.”
[Hyperventilating intensifies]
SCHULZ: “That’s not right.”
NEW: Kentucky family rejects $26 million offer to convert part of their farm into a data center despite the offer being about 10 times the going rate for farmland in the area.
"If it's my way, I'll stay and hold and feed a nation. 26 million doesn't mean anything."
"As long as I'm on this land, as long as it's feeding me, as long as it's taking care of me, there's nothing that can destroy me if I've got this land."

Everyone says “AI will take all the jobs.”
If that happens… how does this future actually work?
No jobs → no income → no spending.
So who buys things? Who pays rent? Who keeps the economy moving?
What am I missing here?
Add your kids as an authorized user to your credit cards (assuming you pay off your card in full every month).
Don’t even give them the card
They will have a perfect, decade plus credit history by the time they actually need it
Legitimately one of the easiest and most impactful things you can do for your children
@knbrmurph Not a bad look at all! love it! Last couple years Giants reporting has been lazy and puts out anything they want and nobody checks the lies. he wants to come out from day 1 saying it’s going to be different and if you lie or misreport on me or the team I’m going to call you out!
@Coach_Yac Is he that dumb to think we’ll keeep believing him and his stupid excuse that they won Super Bowls and Jerry and company never got hurt.. well yeah because in 2014 when they built the stadium the station tripled in size and that’s what the players are referring to
@djgiantsfan@PavlovicNBCS Exactly why I like the Arraez signing. But Ramos bat isn’t good enough to make up for his “little league” blunders in the OF and on the base paths. So hard to watch
@JosiahEvan@PavlovicNBCS In there three WS wins they had Sanchez, Scutaro, & Panik. All hit .300. So they didn’t win with just defense. Pretty sure if any of them hit .228 like Schmitt did this year they wouldn’t have been playing
