@PhilipsPR After getting two verification codes, searching for registration on your site, finally being presented with the correct page only to be dumped into a blank non-responsive page two times, I've given up trying to register my Sonicair toothbrush.

Find the money to fund TSA, don't crush the economy. Homeland Security funds ICE, so move it over.

[JD Vance @JDVance]

⁨We’ve all seen the chaos unleashed by Democrats at airports across the country. It’s preposterous that Chuck Schumer continues to hold TSA funding hostage.

Thankfully, ICE will bring sanity to our airports starting tomorrow, but it’s far past time for Democrats to fund DHS.

Let me explain what just happened 👇

5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil.

5 minutes…

These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch.

There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made.

Someone in that room picked up a phone.
And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars.

American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it.

This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions.

This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight.

You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question.

Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that.

The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…

LAX Airport Fee Increase Proposal https://t.co/lhi9hK2yQf No!

Antivaxxers have some explaining to do.

In this four-year mRNA safety study from France, which includes:

• 23 million vaccinated people
• 6 million unvaccinated people
• Ages 18–59

Vaccinated individuals had a significantly lower all-cause mortality rate, as well as lower COVID-19 death and disease rates, compared to unvaccinated individuals.

This included lower rates of:

• Cancer
• Pregnancy complications
• Birth defects
• Heart problems
• Mental disorders

So it appears that the antivaxxers were wrong yet again.

Further evidence that mRNA vaccines are safe and effective.

Let’s see whether they will acknowledge this data — or continue to deny it and lie.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

Matt Walsh and these other right-wing empty men who think they're avatars of über-masculinity particularly hate Alex Pretti because he exemplified the virtues they love to extol but are too cowardly to actually embody.

They cosplay as trad men by dressing up in campy plaid shirts and sitting in podcast studios with a log cabin aesthetic.

Alex Pretti went to the street to fight for causes he believed in, protected and helped others in both how he protested (he was helping two women when ICE grabbed him) and in his work as an ICU nurse. He lived the values they pretend defines them, all while they lack the courage to ever do or risk anything. He's a reminder to them of what they're not: a mirror showing their own fragility.

That's why they feel vicariously strong watching ICE agents shoot him in the back and killed him.

I'm a former defense attorney and currently a civil liberties attorney with no political dog in this fight. I watched the video at least 10 times from different angles and at different speeds and waited to offer an opinion, which I still reserve the right to change if additional information changes the calculus.

It is very clear that the officers instigated the confrontation. The woman initially tried to wave them past her.

ICE officers have no authority to search a US citizen or arrest her (unless there's probable cause to believe she's harboring undocumented individuals, not a contention here). A woman surrounded by masked, armed men who have no law enforcement authority over her has every right to try to escape. Video shows her steering wheel is turned to the right, clearly an attempt to leave WITHOUT hitting anyone and steer clear of the officer standing towards the front of her car. That officer had time to step to the side, which is where he was when he shot her.

Even a real police officer would not have the right to shoot at her for trying to flee. This is well-established in the case law; deadly force may not be used simply to prevent someone from getting away. Given that the ICE officers had no law enforcement authority to begin with, AND the video footage shows she was trying to escape a perceived threat, not to kill anyone, the crime is all the more inexcusable.

I'm praying for the victim's family, especially her children. I'm also praying for all the conservatives who are so unprincipled and lost they're excusing this terrible crime, and gloating over a death that will leave three young children motherless, because of the victim's politics.

@CNBC Who was that loudmouth talking about Obamacare? Absolutely no expertise or value add—channel change. You're undermining your content.

@AskTSA Thanks for the quick response. I get it.

@TSA Just lost my favorite waiter's corkscrew to you. Apparently, the 3/4" serrated foil knife is too dangerous! Did something change in the regs over the last 10 years? What will I use at the sommelier's convention?

@ExcitedPixel Hi. Breaktime is very helpful to me, but on macOS Tahoe, it hides behind apps, basically requiring a forced reboot to get the machine to respond. Any thoughts?
