Wait…what?! He walks across Connecticut EVERY YEAR?

Join me in calling on @governor.ca.gov to establish a #California Global Child Relief Fund. Someone has to feed the starving children in #Gaza. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, will you lead? Sign the petition at @change.org and share: chng.it/fqLrbKqT2p

Never, in 35 years of The Simpsons, has someone watched Homer working at the nuclear plant and said, “Yes, let’s do that!” Until today. And it was the President of the United States.

The White House just dropped an executive order significantly shaking up operations at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the government’s nuclear safety regulator widely regarded as the “gold standard” for global nuclear power safety operations. I used to cover NRC closely. Here are some notes🧵

Last week @tassajara.bsky.social

This (big beautiful) bill is less of a legislative bill and more of a “We’re gonna bust your kneecaps and you owe double next week,” to the average American citizen.

staffers are still cleaning up the Kristi Noem mess after she got gutted/filleted by @chrismurphyct.bsky.social this is A MOMENT. #MustWatch 🧢 @trumpfile.org

Really missed opportunity for them not to introduce the new pope with this song.

Pope Leo XIV (personal reasons) questionable for Game 3.

How many times are we going to listen to them say what they are going to do, pretend like they won’t do it, then watch them do the exact thing they said they’d do? www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Vu Le isn’t pulling any punches on this one. Good thing, as someone has to say it.

Who knew? This whole time, all we needed to advance scientific discovery was a 5-month deadline. Why stop with autism in September? Cure cancer by October! Alzheimer’s by November! Diabetes December! All rare diseases in 2026! Science! Health!

It's been a heavy week! The only heaviness these otters have to worry about is the weight of their favorite object. Rock on, otters! 🪨🦦 Goodnight!

If you don’t watch anything else today, watch this 👇

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

Narrator: it was indeed, market manipulation. That's why they Elonned the SEC. All cheat codes, no cops!

Kid Rock makes music for dudes who are only allowed to see their kids on weekends, but don’t ! 😂😂😂

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

Just another day in the United States of Stock Market Manipulation #tariffs

Just received this photo to a random Signal group I was added to called, Econ 2025. Can anyone help me decode it?

Trump’s ‘idiotic’ and flawed tariff calculations stun economists via @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Renewables accounted for 92 percent of new power installed globally last year. Read more: bit.ly/4iX1fvQ

Perhaps the bigger issue at play here. No FOIA on Signal.

A mob of Israeli settlers has attacked Palestinian filmmaker and activist Hamdan Ballal just three weeks after he won an Oscar. Israeli soldiers then blocked the ambulance transporting Ballal after the attack and detained him. His current condition and location is unknown.

Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.

"It didn't add up, how people were getting killed and wounded, and we weren't receiving any fire." --Hugh Thompson, Jr. this thread is important history -- do read it.

America hasn’t felt this upside down since I was a child in an internment camp.
