I posted a screenshot of the headline yesterday. Here's the entire Borowitz Report: www.borowitzreport.com/p/man-feared...

I'm telling you, they want to tank the dollar and control the replacement.

🤷🏼‍♂️

This one’s really good. All hail Emperor Angry Dorito!

His brain can hold like nine thoughts, but it can hold them a long, long time.

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was placed in handcuffs at Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center in Newark NJ after an argument with agents. Members of congress where there for a scheduled visit and were shoved after trying to include Baraka in conversations after he gained entry through the gate.

this guy hates this country, its laws and its traditions

Dear god let this man cook.

We are sending people to the Salvadoran gulag for nothing at all. documentedny.com/2025/04/14/i...

38 of the 43. "38 of 43 experts cut last month from boards that review science and research in NIH laboratories are female, Black or Hispanic. "The scientists typically serve five-year terms and were not given a reason for their dismissal..." www.washingtonpost.com/science/2025...

Bear in mind, Judge Wilkinson is a Reagan appointee who was repeatedly on SCOTUS shortlists. This is both an admonition and a dire warning.

Saw this on facebook

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

"We are living through a revolutionary change," @anneapplebaum.bsky.social writes of the Trump era. "For the past decade, American government and business alike have slowly begun to adopt the kleptocratic model pioneered by countries such as Russia and China." https://theatln.tc/ldjLYq88

Strong moment from AOC’s speech in Utah

Sanders: We’re here in so-called conservative Utah, and tomorrow we’ll be in Idaho—because we believe that in every state in this country, people are prepared to stand up and fight back

This is good

I am a professor at Columbia University. All of the student NIH training grants have been canceled and now there are reports that ALL funding will be frozen. Why are Universities not banding together and speaking out publicly and forcibly about governmental attacks on biomedical research?

"He's a GENIUS!"

Kilmar Abrego Garcia had a legal right to be in America. He’s a husband, father and working man. Not a criminal. Yet he was deported to a gulag in El Salvador with no due process and Presidents Trump and Bukele refuse to return him to his family in the U.S.

When human rights advocates in El Salvador say Trump likes their prison system because it’s a “judicial black hole,” this is what they mean. The Trump admin has partnered with Bukele to create a new Guantanamo even more removed from American rule of law. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

This is going to be fucked. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

These are the indicative estimates of Russia’s combat losses as of April 4, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

A federal judge on Friday temporarily halted the Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle Voice of America, the government-funded international broadcaster whose prospective demise has alarmed advocates for press freedoms.

Nothing I can write makes this funnier than it already is.

“People should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions.” @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social and @shaneharris.bsky.social share the group chat in which officials planned strikes on Yemen: theatln.tc/uXU1g37J
