Oh and fun fact, 2 people have sent me this terrifyingly stupid graphic from SpaceX this morning, showing that we actually significantly *underestimated* the reflecting area of these absolutely fucking enormous satellites they're planning. This is so stupid.

NEW: The California AG has asked a court to immediately pause a Republican county sheriff’s investigation into last year’s redistricting referendum election, arguing his seizure of more than 650,000 ballots “threatens to create a dangerous precedent.” https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/a-dangerous-precedent-california-ag-sues-to-stop-amateur-recount-of-ballots-seized-by-gop-sheriff/

Trump’s decision to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports didn’t come out of nowhere. It follows a pattern we’ve seen from him, beginning with the National Guard in Los Angeles and D.C., through his sending ICE agents to Minneapolis. Invariably, Trump deploys federal forces in service of his own political goals rather than public safety. This latest move may be the clearest example yet, and if the pattern holds, it won't end well for him. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-ice-airports-pattern

We often accuse them of that too.
