The US Postal Service isn’t safe enough to mail ballots, but it’s safe enough to mail guns???
The Trump Admin is moving to let people send handguns through the mail. Why? $$$ of course.
This would make all Americans unsafe.

TMZ: Porter McConnell, eldest daughter of Mitch McConnell, appears to have deactivated her X account. The account had long been active, with Porter frequently criticizing both her father's politics and the Republican Party.
The Schrödinger's McConnell situation is weird.

U.S. military spending could soon hit a record $1.5 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that have routinely price-gouged the government, according to investigations.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed eight straight audits.

Hello???
The Defense Department was funded with a budget of nearly a trillion dollars, but it is running out of cash, according to three U.S. officials, a former defense official, outside experts and two congressional staff members.
The Pentagon is running out of money
Defense officials asked for more than $67 billion in supplemental funding. But Congress hasn’t approved the money yet, in part because of frustrations over information about the war with Iran, sources say.

Really sick of Donald Trump bringing down the value of the United States.
Republicans may not want to admit that Trump hates this country and wants to see it in ruin, but anyone paying attention can see how he feels in his every destructive action. And I’m fucking sick of it.

The Amazon and Congo basin forests aren't just trees; they are Earth's life-support systems. If you believe protecting them is non-negotiable for climate action and environmental sustainability, be the first to like, comment, and repost. Say NO to deforestation & ecocide! 🛑👇

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East has been an accelerator for the energy transition I told @npr.org.
In an uncertain world, many countries found that investing in renewables and EVs give them energy security – and makes economic sense. And that's not going away.

The Iran war has pushed some countries away from oil and toward clean energy
The new round of bombing in the Middle East has underscored the precarity of relying on fossil fuels. The war is speeding up the global transition to EVs, solar, and batteries, experts say.

NEW: @opb.org and ProPublica found that water from one of Oregon’s most iconic rivers, the Deschutes, is largely given away to wealthy landowners who are turning the high desert green with lush pastures and landscaping.
An Oregon Law Lets One Wealthy Region Turn the Desert Green. When Drought Hits, Farmers Pay the Price.
In the high desert of Central Oregon, the Deschutes River is a lifeline for farmers and landowners — but a century-old water law entitles just a few thousand people to more than half of its volume.

My not-so-hot take is that what Mamdani is doing *IS* incrementalism, and the bar is so deeply in hell that a politician just doing *anything* good consistently is a total anomaly for people.
And I think for now that is good and fine, because it is restoring people’s faith that better is possible.

ICE may have moved off the front page, but another man is dead after an encounter with agents, and the administration is still defending detention without bond. This is why we keep watching, even when the headlines move on. Read today’s Civil Discourse: joycevance.substack.com/p/ice-still-...
