Fuck this

Arresting a 17-year-old on his way to volleyball practice, here since age 5, or a Missouri mom of three at a routine check-in after 20 years in the U.S.—this isn't justice, it's cruelty. And, yes, ICE agents should be ashamed of themselves.

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

One small victory. Proves they can do it.

My coworker was just talking about this. Her son’s inhaler is no longer covered under our insurance at work.

Moskowitz: "Nothing has been made more efficient. Here are the wins for congressional Rs. You ready? They're gonna do a $9b recession bill. They're gonna get rid of Elmo, which the American people were clamoring for, but they're gonna add $2.4t for the debt. And then they want us to cheer for them."

If you want to know real terror, be the one riding shotgun reading the Thomas Guide and giving your dad directions.

This should be an enormous scandal

He needed air. The price was $539. When OptumRx dropped coverage of his $66 inhaler, Cole couldn’t afford the new price. 5 days later, he died from a severe asthma attack—with no inhaler. He paid with his life. www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news... #MedSky #SciSky #PedsSky #PulmSky

It might not have gotten through to Hawley, but this great line from @kateshaw.bsky.social really landed with the Hawley aide sitting behind his chart as she said it:

The FBI asking Americans to spy on doctors and hospitals to report on the medical care their neighbors are receiving is very ... what's the word ... Third Reichy.

Man comes to the US from Lebanon. Starts out delivering pizzas, becomes a Nobel winning neuroscientist. Trump freezes his funding, he gets an email from China offering to move his lab “any city, any university I want" with guaranteed funding for 20 years. What are we doing?

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

More of this, please.

Psst! Avelo repainted its ICE Air jets white so you don't know it's them endangering the lives of shackled detainees being renditioned to other countries. Pass it on!

I cannot get over these cops wearing night vision to arrest a dude on a Southwest Airlines flight in broad daylight.

Well, it looks like I have to move to Ireland.

This kind of clear, direct explanation of what’s happening is basic journalism and yet it’s surprising to hear it stated so forthrightly in this mealy-mouthed era.

Incredible

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

Kamala Harris got more votes in Texas than in New York.

Carry yourself with the confidence of the head of FEMA who didn’t know the US had a hurricane season

I mean, this is a decent flyer

When a state believes that it doesn't have to comply with the rule of law all manner of abuse and depravity become inevitable. migrantinsider.com/p/exclusive-...

Time to get rid of those cameras. @governorferguson.bsky.social

Anyone who posed this as a hypothetical a few years ago was quickly labeled a hysteric.

ICE raids Poconos pizza shop. "It's really hard to fathom that the guy making my pizza for 25 years is a gangster and a terrorist, and the person who shows up in an unmarked car wearing a mask and body armor comes to take him away is somehow the good guy." www.wnep.com/article/news...

This week’s main story is about how understaffing, long hours, and outdated equipment are making air traffic controllers’ jobs harder. And it’s also about bats. To an unexpected degree, this is also a story about bats. You’ve been warned.

Flood the line.

This is why people across the country need to remain engaged and not give up in the face of oppression

I do not want Gazans to be burned alive. I do not want Jewish people to be set on fire. I do not want these things for any human being. This is not a difficult position to hold or believe.

Happy Pride Month, an event that corporations used to enthusiastically celebrate until a few intolerant people told them to stop

Of course Zelensky didn't tell Trump. He would have told Biden.

A police state but we are honestly unsure who are the police

The more I read about the Ukraine drone operation, the more I love it. Slava Ukraini!

Aircraft carriers of the world USA UK France Ukraine

Ukraine used $47,000 in drones to inflict $7,000,000,000 of damage. War changed today. Forever.

So, no. There is no evidence of fraud.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952
