By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

A barrier of both language *and* generation: My 20ish Uber driver and I were talking books. I asked if he knew who Cher was (I just finished her memoir). He said yes. I said, gee, her mom was married seven times! He thought I was talking about Ed Sheeran, LOL.

Bird photography tips, an oldie that is hopefully useful for spring migration right now.

One of my three has digestive rumblings at bedtime and gets a “chew chew chew” simethicone tablet. But now all three jump at the sound of the rattling container, ears up, eyes shining, eagerly awaiting their “treat.”

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private server or Pete Hegseth using the nuclear codes as his password on Pornhub, both parties have ignored our nation's security.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

Is it “telling,” “shocking,” or “appalling” that the Shapiro arson doesn’t appear in Trending Topics?

The otter keeper gave this baby otter a sock to keep warm. She later turned it into a onesie with holes for the hands, feet, and tail

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Never has there been a better ad juxtaposition than what just came across my FB feed:

@alanzweibel.bsky.social, this one’s for you.

Note to editors and producers: If an executive order demands action that is illegal or outside of the president’s authority, then you should not describe it as ordering something. You should say it seeks to achieve some outcome and then note it is illegal or beyond the power of the president.

Love that Muskow body language, don’t you @drjackbrown.bsky.social ?

If the US had continued to support Ukraine, we may have been months away from the end of the war. The Russians would not have been able to continue to fight for much longer. They were making almost no progress, taking huge casualties.

Every time a career lawyer is pushed out, you can assume they were told to do something illegal.
