At the press conference outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Brian Schatz: "If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers. That is not how the American system of government works." Nailed it!

Very sad news that Steve Albini has passed. Possibly the last honest sound engineer working solely to facilitate the vision of musicians. #RIP #SteveAlbini

Someone has to say it: Elon Musk has lied for 27 years about his credentials. He does not have a BS in Physics, or any technical field. Did not get into a PhD program. Dropped out in 1995 & was illegal. Later, investors quietly arranged a diploma - but not in science. 🧵1/
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The University of Pennsylvania considers Musk to be a graduate of both the economics department and the physics department. "Elon Musk earned a B.A. in physics and a B.S. in economics from the University of Pennsylvania. The degrees were awarded on May 19, 1997." -Penn, 2019 snopes.com/fact-check/mus…

I don't write much about gay sex, as people who have read my books would know. But, oddly, I don't read a tweet like this and feel the urge to convert. Instead I read it and vaguely wish I'd actually written more about gay sex.

No shots fired at him whatsoever! Meanwhile #JaylandWalker was shot 90 times by Ohio police for a traffic violation and he was unarmed 😒

Body cam footage confirms that Akron cops murdered Jayland Walker. He was running away when they hit him with 60 shots. In over 2 years since the murder of George Floyd there's been a massive panic over "defund the police," they were never defunded, and they just keep killing.

Know what makes a bigger impact than 5 million street marchers? 5 million women not buying an American car this year 5 million men not buying an Amazon product for 45 days. 10 million customers closing their cable accounts for 30 days. #DisruptAmericaToSaveIt

I'm not celebrating the 4th of July this year. I have less rights now than ever. Not something to fucking celebrate.

Your daily reminder that the Supreme Court has absolutely no mechanism to enforce any of its decisions. Do with that knowledge what you will.

If Mitch McConnell can kill the filibuster to confirm three Trump nominees to a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court, the least Democrats can do is carve out a filibuster exemption to protect the rights those justices are sabotaging.

Meanwhile all we hear about is inflation. Dems have to get better at telling this story.
Jobless claims at a 52-year low, personal consumption at an all time high, markets up ~20%, and an historic infrastructure bill signed into law - all since the Biden inauguration 10 months ago. As the pandemic and inflation recede, America’s future is once again bright.☀️
