Maybe he should have told them to budget better.

Ohio Sen. Jon Husted testifies in FirstEnergy execs bribery trial today
Ohio Sen. Jon Husted takes the witness stand today in the trial of two former FirstEnergy executives accused of bribing a powerful state official.
Maybe he should have told them to budget better: “Husted advocated for legislation to bail out two nuclear plants then-owned by FirstEnergy Solutions. Text messages between executives indicated Husted and Randazzo were lobbying state lawmakers for a longer, and thus, larger bailout.”

Yes. The attorney’s question exposed DOGE for the bigots they are. This needs to follow them.

The CW on Kennedy is that he's a smart man who pretends to be stupid. Maybe that's right. But if the senator thinks he's mocking Bier in this exchange, he's lacking some pretty basic self-awareness.

When you’ve only used the term “DEI” to mean “people we don’t like” but you know you can’t say that in a deposition.

What conflict of interest? A federal judge just ruled she has no more authority running the Voice of America than I do.

I find it extremely difficult to believe that anyone experiencing what honestly looks like the apocalypse is going to regard it as a form of liberation or that anyone responsible for it actually cares about how Iranians regard it at all.

As is the case with most laws quickly rammed through the legislative process:
"It's unclear how the postage change might actually be implemented. County clerks may not be able to distinguish which stamps are prepaid and which are not if a regular $.73 stamp is placed on a removal form”

Lawmakers target Prop 4 recession campaign in 11th hour twist
In a late-night bill change on the last day of the 2026 legislative session, the Utah legislature passed a bill that could be a major blow to the efforts to keep a repeal of Utah’s anti-gerry…
In a last ditch effort to protect existing signatures on their gerrymandering initiative, the GOP led legislature and Governor Cox made it illegal for citizens to use prepaid postage to submit signature removal statements when citizens learn they were misled about the initiative's purpose.

Drains across the Iranian capital Tehran are continuing to explode after earlier Israeli and US strikes on oil depots and infrastructure.

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump
Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.
@jkbjournalist.bsky.social on the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a minor ...
"A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible – and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."

The Bygone Era of Supreme Court Support for Voting Rights
Sixty years after upholding the Voting Rights Act, the Court has dismantled most of it.
Tomorrow marks the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama. It also marks the 60th anniversary of the Supreme Court first upholding the Voting Rights Act.
We have gotten so, so far away from a Court that cares about democracy.

i hate when liberals pull shit like that. i know part of it is because its a sensitive topic for me but you'd think we would have less credentialism when the two worst presidents of the last 50 years went to fucking yale and wharton.

Trump team preparing for their Dear Leader’s inevitable declaration of victory and attempt to wash his hands of the regional war he started. Meanwhile, on Instagram, my Senator, John Curtis, said it would be irresponsible to invoke the War Powers act to do essentially the same thing (he’s wrong)

Sure Trump defers to Putin a lot, but no one else in his administration thought this through?
