Taking money is one thing, but accepting titles of nobility from dodgy Euro monarchists is expressly forbidden by the US constitution unless Congress approves. And yet self-scourging Opus Dei dude Alito could not resist a knighthood.
Utterly shameful behaviour at the US National Archives as anything remotely confronting to white Americans seems to be being purged from the public national record. Whitewashing history is a shockingly regressive step.
To clarify this, we're talking public display and education. As far as I know, they're not removing items from the archives themselves, although if Trump wins that level of cultural vandalism wouldn't surprise me.

Many people describe prediction markets as a form of wisdom of the crowd. Polymarket has been favoring Trump to win (58% likelihood) but it turns out a lot of that is driven by a single French user who has bet $30 million on Trump winning.
The best part is the bettor is anonymous because they’re hiding their wealth from their friends and children.
Wisdom of the crowd? More like wisdom of the crypto bro.
Congrats to Robert Tarjan and his collaborators on winning the best paper award at the 2024 Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science!
Their work, featured in Quanta Magazine, has proven that one algorithm — created by Edsger Dijkstra — is the "universally optimal" way to answer a quintessential problem: how to find the best path between two points.

If you haven't voted there are only three days left to make your voices heard and deliver that sweet victory defeat to Trump and his fascist.
Lets make history.
Please do not forget that our planet's fate in regards to global warming is also on our ballots.
When Joe Biden took office we had 36 gigawatts of solar and wind on the U.S. grid in February. This last February that had increased to 59 GW, from 11% to 18%. That only went from 9% to 11% during Trump's administration.
There is over 2 GW of clean electricity waiting to access our electricity grids and Republican Attorney Generals are fighting against grid expansions.
