IN THE GUTTER: Jimmy Kimmel is facing backlash after mocking DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin's background as a plumber, saying, “We have a plumber protecting us from terrorism now."
Critics online and in Washington called the remarks elitist and dismissive of working-class professions.

“Until we have done everything within our power
to bring the United States to its knees,
let us not lose sight of the enemy.
For every US military base that crumbles
and for every US soldier — who returns home in a casket —
we cheer.”
“May a Hamas rocket blow up your family’s home.”
This is the cancer growing & spreading within our country.
This is the democrat party.
This is Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Trump is yet again insulting our brave armed forces just because we refuse to be dragged into his illegal war.
The “toys” he refers to are called HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales.
What more will it take for Keir Starmer to call off the King's state visit to the US?

@friedberg We should just collectively refuse to pay taxes in CA until it’s fixed

it’s not political and should
not be partisan to ask “where did all the money go?”
California’s functional bankruptcy threatens the nation and should be a front-and-center state and national discussion.
ignore the bs. this is what matters.
Molly O’Shea@MollySOShea
BREAKING: David @friedberg says "California is functionally bankrupt" "People don't realize how screwed California is, & I worry that if California falls, so does the union. "$250 billion to $1 trillion short." "This is because for California to get rescued would be a big cost to red states, & I think it creates in the years ahead a lot of tension." "California's functional bankruptcy is a major risk to the country. & I think we need to figure out what we can change to fix it." How we got here: "California has a public pension system, & that public pension system retirees have paid into it & they get some benefits out, & the amount that they're owed back out is somewhere between $250 billion - $1 trillion dollars more than has been paid in. $250 billion to $1 trillion short. If it was the federal government, it would be like, okay, we'll just print more money. California doesn't have the ability to print money, so California has to pay this out, and you can't restructure retirement benefits. There is a Supreme Court case in California that said that once an employee has been offered retirement benefits, even if they're currently an employee, you can never restructure their retirement benefits. It has to stay forever, and the state cannot declare bankruptcy. There's no way for the state to functionally declare bankruptcy. There's no law to allow it. No state has ever declared bankruptcy, and the retirement benefits sit senior to the bonds in California. So you have to pay out the retirement benefits before you pay out all the bond holders that have loaned California the money that they use to run all their programs and services."

In a rare moment, California Gov. @GavinNewsom @CAgovernor got emotional — tearing up — while announcing a major expansion of the California Service Corps.
During his remarks in Sacramento alongside California Service Corps members, Newsom unveiled a push to recruit and add 10,000 paid positions focused on disaster response, education, climate action, and community projects.
At one point, he paused, visibly in tears:
“Weird… forgive me… This [program] is it. You want to fix all this stuff? This [program] is it," he said.
Newsom called the program a path forward for a divided society:
“We’re all just sitting there yelling and screaming at each other… trying to tear each other down. How are we going to get out of this? This is it… it’s so obvious what we need to do.”
The effort also includes a new “Men’s Service Challenge.”
CA Chief Service Officer @JoshFryday: "Here's the message from the State of California...we need you. To every young person out there, you matter...we need you to serve today."

@BillAckman @Harvard Our Alma Mater has lost its moral compass
English
Very good questions for @Harvard that deserve answers.
Shabbos Kestenbaum@ShabbosK
An open letter to current Harvard faculty, donors, and trustees: I know you hate me. I know you hate President Trump. I know you think the enforcement of federal law is actually a conspiracy to overhaul higher education. I know you think the multiple conclusions of religious discrimination against Jews is a lie. But I am genuinely struggling to understand, irrespective of antisemitism, how the current disastrous state of the University has not resulted in tangible, meaningful reform. I implore you to answer basic questions about how you continue to choose to run Harvard University: 1. Why do you insist on paying Claudine Gay, an actual serial plagiarist who was forced to resign, a salary of $900,000 a year? 2. Why specifically should Claudine Gay of all people be teaching a class on leadership, using Harvard as a case study? 3. What specific merits and talents does Chairwoman Penny Pritzker bring to the table? What is the specific justification for keeping her? 4. For what specific reason is the University refusing to comply with federal law by not sharing the criminal background history of your foreign students to DHS? 5. Does it bother you that 97% of the faculty identify with one particular political ideology? If yes, what are two specific actions you're willing to take to rectify the problem? 6. What specifically have you done to ensure that the few conservative students left on campus aren't self-censoring their work and opinions? 7. Does it bother you that multiple faculty members, such as Professor James Hankins, admitted they or their colleagues were told that white men, in the post George Floyd backlash would no longer be hired if there was a (less qualified) black or gay applicant? 8. Thousands of donors, representing billions of dollars, have refused to give anymore since 10/07. What specific policy overhauls have you implemented to win them back? Irrespective of antisemitism, I'm genuinely struggling to understand why Harvard refuses to get out of its own way. This entire controversy since Day 1 has been entirely self inflicted and avoidable. Poor leadership after poor leadership...

Everything costs less than the cost of high speed rail from SF to LA, which is infinite.

This is the real cost of Trump’s inhumane policies. Listen to this woman’s heartbreaking story:

This is Shahid Butt.
He is a convicted terrorist who plotted to bomb the British consulate in Yemen and an Anglican Church.
He is now running for office in Birmingham, in a seat that is 91% ethnic minority and 70% Muslim.
He will likely win.
A convicted Islamic terrorist stands a high chance of being elected to public office in Britain.
A violent extremist who plotted the destruction of British lives is going to walk the corridors of power in Britain.
A jihadi fighter who joined terror cells to fight in Afghanistan and Bosnia is going to be influencing the laws, culture, and heritage of Britain.
Why is this not on the front page of every national newspaper? Where is the outrage? Where are the protests?
We are sleepwalking right into the grasp of jihadism.
We need proportional representation while it can still save us !

🚨🇮🇷 SON OF ALI KHAMENEI REPORTED ALIVE: WHAT IT MEANS FOR IRAN'S FUTURE
Mojtaba Khamenei, son of Iran’s Supreme Leader, is reportedly in full health and reviewing “important issues” in Tehran.
He’s long been seen as a potential successor, with deep ties to the IRGC and Basij.
A father to son handover would clash with Shiite tradition and Iran’s revolutionary ideals, making any succession far from straightforward.
Geopolitically, a more hands-on Mojtaba could mean harder lines on nuclear policy and regional influence, but internal factions could push back, keeping Tehran unpredictable.
