Charlie Kirk called Martin Luther King Jr. “a bad guy” and called anti-segregation legislation a mistake. Trump hosted him at the White House yesterday.

Reminder: DOGE was never about "efficiency."

A student said to me at an event today, ‘I’d love to speak out and say stuff but I can’t because I’m on a visa.’ What has happened to America? Trump and Rubio and MAGA have killed free speech and the First Amendment in this country.

Jessica Tarlov: “He does these interviews and says I don't know, or I'm not sure. He was asked ‘do you need to uphold the constitution? I don't know, ask a lawyer’ … He may be in front of you, but that doesn’t mean that he’s not spewing utter BS.”

Are we going to start importing Bird Flu?

while I knew judges have been getting anonymous 'I know where you live' pizza deliveries, I didn't know til writing this piece on Trump endangering judges that many orders were placed in the name of a judge's son who was murdered by someone posing as a deliveryman ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Thankfully, the village was evacuated already, but one person is missing and everyone else’s homes are destroyed. Make no mistake: this is a climate disaster.

Of. Course! The convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, fraudster & liar, and wannabe autocrat is breaking laws and trying to shred the Constitution every damn day. America has #NoKing Our courts are built to #DisruptTheCoup

Night, all, and let us try to be good to one another — and ourselves.

22 years ago I pivoted from working on antibiotic resistance to pandemic viruses. Since then, I've argued that if we care about saving US lives in expectation, advance capacity for producing bird flu vaccine offers by far the greatest expected return on investment. ... We were so goddamn close.

The "big beautiful bill" treats single parents differently Source: Axios “A buried provision in the "big beautiful bill" effectively penalizes single parents who receive SNAP, or food stamps, as compared to households headed by married couples.” share.newsbreak.com/davbvjji?s=i16

Donald Trump’s mental decline is no longer just noticeable—it’s alarming. He rambles, repeats himself, speaks in circles, and veers into total incoherence. Republicans and the media need to stop the coverup and demand a full examination and public disclosure of his mental status.

I love Tim Walz…

Here is the sort of dissection—a vivisection—many have been waiting for. I hope you will check it out and share it widely. This book deserves to be discredited.

Breaking! Lawrence O’Donnell just reported on his show moments ago that the court of international trade has ruled against Trump‘s tariffs and issued a summary judgment blocking all of them. This is absolutely wonderful and amazing thank you federal court one of whose judges was appointed by Trump.

Trade policy update.

In remarks to a private audience in 2023, Russell #Vought, who is Trump’s budget chief and the intellectual force behind Trump’s unprecedented power grab, said he championed the term “invasion” because it “unlocked” extraordinary presidential powers. #Immigration www.propublica.org/article/trum...

When do we start winning?

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.

Of course they are… 🤬
