Genetic material shed by tumors can be detected in the bloodstream three years before cancer diagnosis, according to a study led by investigators at Johns Hopkins University. That study was made possible with federal funding. Now, many studies like this are canceled. hub.jhu.edu/2025/06/04/...

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

Trump underwater in literally every single issue. 38% approval overall. 27% approval on his spending bill. 40% approval on deportations. Musk also at 30% approval. 38% approval for RFK Jr. 35% approval for JD Vance. Nobody fucking wants any of this. poll.qu.edu/poll-release...

The poor quality of DOJ lawyering continues to be an underreported issue. The statute reads that orders "shall be issued through the governors of the states." Newsom's knowledge of the order and whether California law authorizes the Adjutant to act on his behalf in certain situations are irrelevant.

Got a printer? You can start fighting fascism. Here's a thread of things you can print and distribute. 👇 I promise doing something--even this--feels better than raging silently. And maybe it'll show you that standing up is possible and open you up to more things you can do.

Literally every other American president in the history of the Republic would have fired Tulsi Gabbard today. But Trump is here to destroy, divide and cause chaos, and she is doing the job he wants done.

I reserved two parade viewing tickets under the name of the guy who killed Musso. Tips: any old phone number will work, it seems, except 867-5309. No matter what area code, it's taken. (Gen X represent!) Also any made up email seems to work. You'd think they would have learned from Tulsa. But nooooo

Mobilize and deploy US troops against fellow Americans. Make fellow Americans look like they’re the “enemy within”. Distort the truth to make it look like LEGAL protests are something criminal in nature. It’s more of the “us versus them” propaganda from Convicted Felon Donald Trump.

Don’t forget that Hegseth removed the JAG officers at the top of each branch almost immediately upon taking office, for “being in the way.” Not sure if he replaced them or with whom. But JAGs would be the ones making the ultimate call, if necessary

The absolute irony of posting this literally an hour after Adam Schiff showed up at Huerta's bail hearing. And a day after Maxine Waters was on the front lines of the protests daring the National Guard to shoot her. And Pramila Jayapal on the front lines. You're spreading fascist propaganda bud

“Governors are the Commanders in Chief of their National Guard and the federal government activating them in their own borders without consulting or working with a state’s governor is ineffective and dangerous.” And per California it’s also illegal: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

Not a justification, but predictable as Johnson owes his continued Speakership to Trump in a way that previous Speakers did not vis-a-vis Trump or prior Presidents. Separation of powers just doesn't work if the Speaker is the President's subordinate.
