No president has stress tested our democracy to the extent that our current one has. The “three co-equal branches of government” our forefathers envisioned didn’t include a self dealing Executive branch, combined with two other branches who have abdicated their independence.
Buttigieg: We didn't know it, but we've all been trusting our lives to the restraint of whoever the president might be. And now we have a president who is completely unrestrained. And so the only answer to that is a functioning Congress.
It turns out we do not have a functioning Congress.

We have an incredible problem: too many donations for our mutual aid hub and not enough shelves!
We’ve outgrown our current setup, and we need to adapt to keep up with need, especially as we help candidates across the country adopt this model.

Remembering wistfully how the GOP in the late 00s insisted China's emissions were so high it was meaningless to do any sort of climate policy and now China spent 18b and has more renewable energy than their grid can use and American fracking companies lost 300b between 2010 and 2020

the thing about art is that it's a bonanza for a very small group and makes no money for everyone else, but at the same time you need an actual scene/community to create conditions for the few things people want to pay for. 1

Nate Powell, a Spokane firefighter and Marine veteran, is running for Congress in #WA05 against Mike Baumgartner as an independent.
He’s running on affordability, AI regulation, and support for the family farms that Trump Republicans have devastated.

A federal lawsuit is seeking an emergency court order to stop Trump’s planned UFC event on White House grounds, arguing that it represents a blatant abuse of public property for private profit and political gain.

Two movies from YouTube creators cost a combined $11M and earned $246.6M by last weekend, with both outperforming The Mandalorian and Grogu.
This feels like a watershed moment. YouTube is now a legitimate movie director talent pipeline and Star Wars increasingly looks washed as a brand.

Whoa! The West is a brutal reminder that you can’t negotiate with climate change.
70% of the West’s water supply depends on mountain snowpack. This year, record warmth and the “March Meltdown” turned that natural reservoir into a trickle.

The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized".
That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.

John Deere’s stubborn lack of willingness to allow farmers to repair their own equipment is only going to create more opportunities for forward thinking companies like this.
Doug Wilson of Ursa Ag has built a repairable dumb tractor specifically to provide an alternative in the market to John Deere's high-tech tractors. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social spoke with Doug on how the response has been.

The idea that the US & UK militaries are lobby that same technology that tells me “I’m absolutely right” on an almost daily basis as I point out its inability to follow instructions should be allowed to kill people’s without human oversight is nuts to me.

Weaponizing environmental concerns to prevent people from living in our urban environments isn’t new. It’s deployed by people with resources to restrict access to high opportunity areas. It’s nimbyism. In order to reach our housing goals, our land use processes must stop enabling this behavior.
