The Trump administration's recent assault on the environment continues:
BREAKING: DHS contractors are toppling the last of four ancient cottonwoods to build double border walls across the San Rafael Valley.
The wall cuts through the key remaining wildlife corridor for endangered jaguars between Arizona and Sonora, where human border crossings are seldom seen.
A protest camp had occupied and protected this tree for more than 60 days, halting construction. The camp was raided and campers were arrested this morning.
This wall will effectively lock the remaining jaguars in the U.S. into solitary confinement, while permanently marring one of the last remaining wild places along the Arizona border.
I’m so glad Fleabag is so high. Our favorite. Also happy to see Atlanta at 10. Just a masterful show.
Shows that should be higher? Chappelle’s Show, Ozark, Barry and Ted Lasso.

The radar loop of Lala and its interaction with the complex and steep terrain of the Big Island is absolutely fascinating to watch. From the nascent eyewall breakdown to the erosion of the western eyewall as it passes south, definitely some squirrelly dynamics at play.
This is wild! The president was secretly spirited off of Air Force One on a catering truck to fly on another aircraft amid assassination threats from Iran.

As America commemorates 250 years of independence, the @usmint will begin striking this new $1 gold coin to honor the enduring legacy of liberty and a lasting symbol of patriotism. Featuring President Trump, it celebrates the strength of American values, and the promise of a nation dedicated to preserving freedom for all.
“The Trump administration’s CDC scaled back a federal-state partnership that monitors foodborne illnesses, incl. cyclospora, a year before states began reporting an outbreak of cyclospora infection, a foodborne illness that can cause explosive diarrhea.”

Nothing to see here, just a senior member of xAI’s staff unapologetically spouting Nazi propaganda.

The only ballots pending in the election are those subject to signature cure due to unmatched signatures or unsigned envelopes as prescribed in law. What IS happening is post-election auditing, a required manual count of a random sample to validate accuracy of the tally system.
Orange County Congressman unloads on President Trump's DOJ:
This should be on the front page of every newspaper in America.
Trump’s DOJ just shut down a federal investigation into a coal company owned by Sen. Jim Justice, one of his closest allies, after it racked up tens of thousands of alleged violations for dumping dangerous chemicals into our waterways. A veteran federal prosecutor with 24 years on the job said he had never seen anything like it.
The man who killed the case was Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal defense lawyer and current Acting Attorney General. This is the same guy who just gave Trump, his family, and his companies permanent immunity from IRS audits. Now Trump wants the Senate to make Blanche’s appointment permanent too.
Equal justice under law was never supposed to come with exceptions for the President’s friends.
The pattern isn’t subtle: protect Trump’s friends, prosecute his critics, and get rewarded with more power. That is corruption, plain and simple. Todd Blanche must not be confirmed.
