We are underselling what is going to happen if Jalen wins this series. Statue? Hell no, rename it Brunson Station.

Jalen Brunson's clutch scoring in the playoffs is literally Michael Jordan-level

Not coincidentally, this attack is underway shortly after the U.S. delayed delivery of air defense missiles to Ukraine and after Zelensky wrote an urgent appeal to Trump writing, "I ask for your help in protecting Ukraine's skies from Russian missiles."

Oxford, the longest running continuous weather station in UK history, with temperature observations stretching back to 1815, has preliminarily broken its maximum temperature record for May yesterday by OVER 3ºC with a temperature of 33.7ºC. Unprecedented in its 211-year history.

A judge has ruled that corporations can vote in some Delaware elections.

Delaware Superior Court Judge Craig Karsnitz said the town of Fenwick Island was not diluting human votes by allowing companies ​and other legal entities that own property to cast votes in municipal elections.

These "legal entities" and corporations make up about 12% of registered voters in the town.

In total Delaware has far more ​corporations chartered in the state than residents.

Judge Karsnitz rejected the constitutional arguments of the ACLU, including the claim that "entity" or corporate voting dilutes the political power of living people.

How it started

How it’s going

[Jacob Ben-David Linker 🇺🇸🕎🇺🇸✡️🇺🇸🕎🇺🇸 @JacobALinker]

Israel in the early 70s did a "build your own home" program to move people out of the refugee favelas and into new towns and neighborhoods. More than 11,000 Palestinians took the offer.

The PLO threatened violence against participants and the UN passed two resolutions against it.

Official data is in today, and US solar power generation continues to grow rapidly, up 22% compared to this time last year!

Within one 24 hour period, Trump:

- got out of a $100 million IRS fine
- secured "immunity" from all future tax investigations for his family and friends
- created a $1.8 billion slush fund for lawbreaking supporters
- was reported for likely insider trading worth nearly $1 billion

All of the obvious things to say about this are true. It's bad. Nobody even tries to defend it. The closest thing to a defense you get is something about how "but Democrats suck" and "woke was also bad," which is not a defense, but rather a kind of moral blank check made out to the administration to give them the right to do anything.

But what I'm most curious about is whether this sort of lurid corruption creates a countermovement that successfully returns government to rule of law or whether it's establishing a norm of executive imperialism that every future administration will use to achieve its ends, which can always be justified by the moral blank check of "the other side is worse, so let us do whatever we want."

Absolute insanity….here is Mike Johnson saying members of Congress need to be able to continue their insider trading because the yearly salary of $174K with healthcare and taxpayer funded vacations every other week is not enough for them

🚨The Utah Senate President has an 18-year-old grandchild who has been charged with molesting a 13-year-old.

He just passed a bill that reduces child molestation sentences specifically for 18-year-olds.

Texas just passed California in utility-scale solar. And it's not close in wind or energy storage.

[Jan Rosenow @janrosenow]

Denmark's coal-to-wind transition is one of the most dramatic energy transformations of the past three decades.

In 1990, coal provided 90% of Danish electricity. Today it is under 3%.

Wind now covers roughly 60% of electricity generation.

NEW: One of the most dangerous drivers in New York City is an NYPD cop on Staten Island. He’s gotten 547 school-zone speeding and red-light tickets in the past four years.

The NYPD is refusing to intervene: https://t.co/Wsp3wSz6XC

Joe Rogan at the White House right now standing behind Trump at the Oval Office….once a bootlicker always a bootlicker!

Annie Farmer was 16 when she reported being sexually abused by Epstein at Zorro Ranch in 1996. The U.S. Attorney who should have investigated never opened a case.

Newly unearthed federal documents reveal why: he was Epstein’s own Power of Attorney for the ranch purchase.

850,000 Iraqi Jews live in Israel today. None are left in Iraq. All of their assets were seized by the Iraqi government and reparations have never been made.
