With all of its telescopes back to work, our Swift observatory is ready to catch cosmic outbursts! If its Burst Alert Telescope spots a gamma-ray flare, Swift will automatically point its other two telescopes at the site. More on Swift’s current status: go.nasa.gov/4hwD1cF

ALT This animated gif shows the Swift spacecraft orbiting around Earth. Swift, all in silver, looks like a long cylinder, with a boxy shape on one end. Long solar panels sit parallel to the body of the spacecraft on two sides. The view zooms in to show the top portion of the spacecraft. Swift looks toward a faint orange oval that is surrounded by the darkness of space. The orange oval enlarges briefly, then shrinks back down. This is followed by an outburst of light blue spheres signifying a gamma-ray burst. This image is watermarked with “Artist’s concept” and “Credit: Aaron Tohuvavohu.”

There are three dozen men’s names redacted in this Epstein file. Presumably they were mostly witnesses interviewed. But Richard Kahn is one of the names. So is Leslie Groff. There’s no reason their names should be redacted. Where are the interview notes? justice.gov/epstein/files/Da…

Killed her for fighting against a white rapist
She was bought at fourteen by a man who assaulted her for five years and fathered two of her children. When she finally fought back and he died, Missouri put her on trial — and the court ruled she had no right to defend herself. Celia. 1855. Missouri law at the time said a woman could use deadly force to defend her honour. Celia's lawyers argued that law covered her. The judge ruled it did not — because the statute said "any woman," and Celia was not legally a woman. She was property. That was the finding. Not that she was lying. Not that it had not happened. That the protection did not extend to her, because she was a thing. She was convicted and sentenced to hang. The state waited until she had given birth — the baby was stillborn — and then executed her in December 1855. She was nineteen years old. Her story is the kind of buried history that we must never forget savvypurchase.samcart.com/pr…

It’s almost cute that Larry Ellison might bankrupt Oracle — a feat equivalent to bankrupting a casino — in his attempt to make his failson a media and movie mogul.
Ellison forced to pledge an additional $9.2 billion in $ORCL shares for $PSKY deal as lenders fear Oracle faces severe risk of going to single digits or bankruptcy. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Hakeem Jeffries points out that Democrats are putting seats in play in districts Trump won by 18, 19 — even 20 points. When seats that red are suddenly competitive, Republicans have a much bigger problem than they want to admit. Register, organize, vote. Let’s bring this home!

How DESPERATE are trump and Republicans? So desperate, they want to "cheat like hell" and declare martial law in order to avoid MASSIVE midterm election losses. This should be a HUGE story.

This is all terrifying stuff. God knows how Trump’s actually making any of these “decisions.” The entire technology industry is trying to placate him by participating in his psychosis that rebranding chatbots will make everyone not hate AI. He is desperate to keep this bubble going. This whole industry is a circular human centipede and he’s trying to keep force-feeding it. This will end very very badly.
Many events are now scheduled for Tuesday, September 29th: - President Trump and Speaker Johnson will meet with all top tech CEOs to discuss the state of the industry (though the current rumors are that Dario Amodei has not be invited). - Following the meeting, an event celebrating 'the beginning of a new American Golden Age' will feature multiple AI/SI panels and high-profile guests, including Elon Musk and Jensen Huang. - the unveiling of a new government AI tool at america.gov/ (currently showing a countdown to the event) - President Trump is slated to deliver a national address. - The appointment of the new Czar may also be officially announced.

Black MAGA grandpa threatens to call ICE on Hispanic saleswoman—tells her "That's why Trump don’t want you here." "You and me are the same," she retorts.

Made racist comments before and threatened to call ICE—even though she's explained she has legal residency. "I don't care if I lose my job at this point that really bothers me... especially with threats about calling ICE." Incident occurred inside a Cricket Wireless store.
