Amazing community note
Vance is literally the only national politician who has called Trump Hitler.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
RFK Jr. also called Trump Hitler politico.com/live-updates/2…

So proud of Dean Cain joining ICE. FInally they found somebody who doesn't need a mask because nobody recognizes him.

A tale of two movies: Similar deal structures. Similar budgets. One made $45M from 3300 screens, post pandemic, and won the weekend. The other made $41M from 3600 screens pre-pandemic, and placed second. And yet this is the coverage.

Hey, Matt, I hear you like ‘em young.
The halftime show you just watched is clearly the regime’s response to Trump’s historic gains with black men.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Kendrick Lamar was announced as the halftime show several months before Trump won people.com/kendrick-lamar…

Thanks to Hailuo AI's new Director model, I can duplicate the Evil Dead shot now. That's groovy.

The folks behind @watchdutyapp better never pay for another drink in the Los Angeles area as long as they live.
Our systems remain 100% operational while sustaining over 20,000 requests per second with over 1MM users per hour. Without the support of @fastly, we would not be able to serve our community during this tragic time. Thank you.

🧵 You know what spreads quicker than wildfires? Misinformation. - No, the fire department budget wasn’t slashed, they were in the process of negotiations. - Yes, the water tanks were full but bc it was too windy for airdrops there was more pressure in the hydrant system

What I've learned today, over the past two days, is in many more people than I thought -- there's a vacuum where empathy would be. A lot of people simply don't have the parts to access. They're not there. They can't be reached. There's nothing inside them to reach.
Rooting for Los Angeles to burn is not in any manner a patriotic stance. It’s not a sensical political one. It’s most definitely not a Christian one.

Struggling to find the words for just how disturbing this is. But suffice it to say that at one point, even Baldoni’s own publicist essentially says “thank goodness people hate women.”
Blake Lively has filed a legal complaint laying out an alleged campaign to tarnish her reputation after she accused Justin Baldoni of misconduct on the set of “It Ends With Us.” A New York Times investigation shows how the fallout unfolded. nyti.ms/3DoqZSq

These are the lines with the military that Trump tried to cross last time. General Milley and others served as a guardrail for our military and democracy and stopped him. Now, there will be no guardrails. And the negative impact of this on our democracy, our military and our national security will be unprecedented. The closest parallel might be the use of US troops to put Japanese-American citizens in internment camps during WW2. To this day, one of the darkest spots in American history. History that Trump wants to repeat. #OurEnemiesAreCelebrating
Trump confirms he is prepared to declare a national emergency and use military assets to carry out his mass deportation pledge.
