This story has everything, a focus on desal that led to overlooking other water sources, a city manager making $400K/yr saying don’t panic, a former water system manager saying residents should absolutely panic, and magical thinking: β€œThe last hope to avert disaster was a 20- to 30-inch rainfall.”

Trump gets angry at Fox News' Peter Doocy for asking about Russia helping Iran to kill Americans during his roundtable on college sports.

Trump: "What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else."

Priorities for the US Commander in Chief.

I wonder, sometimes: will MAGA ever be like "I've never played sports with a trans person but I can't afford groceries and that seems more important" or will they simply starve to death with "what is a woman?" as their last words

Yes, but it does also clarify that victims and witnesses won't be turned over. Gives local cops a lot of different ways to say no that they didnt have before

This happened after outcry around ICE deporting a mom and her 5-y.o. child (a citizen), earlier this year.

The new rules say that supervisors have to evaluate if officers waiting would jeopardize investigations or APD's ability to response to other calls.

Look, people love to say Sun Tzu's Art of War is all obvious advice, but he wrote "don't fight an unpopular war" and that clearly isn't obvious for some heads of state

An upcoming California law requires operating system providers to enforce basic mandatory age verification It's basic, and by the looks of it, near unenforceable.

A new California law says all operating systems, including Linux, need to have some form of ID verification (which they’re calling age verification) at account setup.

This makes absolutely ZERO sense if you have even the most basic understanding of technology

She’d Never Changed Her Gender Marker. Kansas Invalidated Her License Anyway. β€” Assigned A trans Kansas resident recently changed her name but not her gender marker on her license, fearing what Kansas may do if she did. The Kansas DMV still flagged her ID.

Kansas is invalidating trans residents' licenses even if they HAVEN'T changed their gender markers, according to this reporting from @natezuke.bsky.social @assignedmedia.org:

After grueling hand count in 2024, a Texas county tries again When Gillespie County Republicans hand-counted the 2024 primary, it took all night and led to several errors. That didn’t stop them from doing it again in 2026.

Numerous sources show that the Israeli strike on Evin Prison last year killed a number of trans inmates. According to available evidence on the subject, they were killed while many nearby sections of the prison remained intact, indicating intent to kill them.

I really don’t think mainstream political analysts are keyed in to how dangerous this ideology is.

It's something that deserved a quick correction. I understand that they're grappling with a lot, but we're also at war now and these things matter a ton. This shooting was quickly called terrorism, but that determination still hasn't been officially made!

Texas megachurch pastor John Hagee is selling Trump's Iran conflict as God's plan The Cornerstone Church preacher aired a literal infomercial for warβ€”framing airstrikes, end-times prophecy, and Trump’s escalation as divine destiny

Texas megachurch preacher John Hagee didn’t just deliver a sermon this weekend.

He aired a pro-war infomercial telling Christians that bombing Iran is part of God’s plan.

This is who’s influencing U.S. foreign policy right now. πŸ‘‡
