  1. Leaving aside the emissions (bad enough), the following bears re-reading

    theguardian.com/business/2026/

    ‘However, EA documents show this new process “periodically paused”, with benzene consequently emitted directly to the air. The documents also show the EA was aware of this problem in 2023, but did not investigate until this year.’

    #Criminalnegligence anyone? Should the EA and Huntsman both be in the dock?

  3. Sen. Chris Murphy: "Donald Trump doesn't care anymore. It's just non-stop, in-your-face corruption. The latest? If you pay Trump $100,000 a month, he will give you advance White House announcements on economic and trade policy. An insider trading subscription service. People will go to jail for this."

  7. Vanessa Cárdenas: "The Trump Miller deportation machine is cruel, costly, chaotic, and now deadly on a growing scale. They are killing our fathers, our neighbors, our coworkers, with no regard for human life. As long as there is a quota of arrests to meet, #ICE agents will continue to hunt immigrants indiscriminately, and with the Supreme Court’s blessing, they are free to racially profile. Congress needs to hold this administration accountable.”

  11. George Conway, in response to the report that:
    "The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon,” wrote:
    Fleeing. The vehicle was driving away.

    That’s murder. A legal resident of the United States is now dead.

    The threat to public safety is #ICE.

    It must be eliminated."

Donald Trump purchased between $15,000 and $50,000 worth of stock in TKO Holding Group, the parent company of UFC and WWE, weeks ahead of a White House UFC event he’s promoted for months. The purchase was disclosed in Trump’s May 8 financial disclosures, which are publicly available through the U.S. Office of Government Ethics":

  17. There are #legal limitations to the use of #NDAs in #government. Under a #federal #law that protects #whistleblowers, these agreements cannot limit a civil servant’s ability to expose #waste, #fraud & #abuse. [ruh-roh]

  19. …The #Trump admin has used #NDAs in recent efforts to keep a close hold on certain #information.
    
The #Pentagon imposed NDAs & random #polygraph testing as part of a broader effort to root out #leaks & those deemed insufficiently #loyal. The Department of #VeteransAffairs also required officials working on #layoffs last year to sign agreements, keeping much of its workforce in the dark about #MassFirings, later canceled.

  21. The #Trump admin is planning a #government-wide nondisclosure agreement [#NDA] that bars #FederalWorkers from sharing a wide array of “confidential government information,” acc/to a draft notice posted to the Federal Register on Tuesday by the #US Office of Personnel Management [#OPM].

  23. Such a dumb redundancy, if they work on classified info, they already have the equivalent of this in place. #Trump is just too ignorant to know, so he wants to use what he knows from business & his multiple sexual assaults.

    Trump admin proposes #NDAs for ALL #FederalWorkers
    
The rule, aimed at cracking down on #leaks to #media organizations, would expand the redundant NDAs instituted at the #Pentagon & other agencies.

  25. Jessica Tarlov: "Stop pretending the Trump Administration is cracking down on #fraud, when Trump literally let people who stole hundreds of millions in Medicare and Medicaid money walk free. One guy stole $1.3 billion and served 14 months of a 20-year sentence. When a reporter asked the DOJ about it, they refused to answer."

  32. Carol Leonnig: "FBI director Kash Patel is supposed to reimburse US government for the commercial cost of personal travel. His claim this is a business trip is correctly being questioned - and it is similar to what famously got another FBI director fired."

  33. "Epstein files suggest acts that may amount to crimes against humanity, say United Nations experts":
    theguardian.com/us-news/2026/f
    “So grave is the scale, nature, systematic character, and transnational reach of these atrocities against women and girls, that a number of them may reasonably meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity.”

  34. Rep. Daniel Goldman: "Donald Trump is so focused on putting his name on everything, so let's grant him his wish by calling them the Trump-Epstein files. This is a massive cover-up by Trump and his cronies, and I won’t stop until we hold them accountable."
