Measles is so infectious that you can catch it by walking through a large room hours after a contagious person did. Now imagine sitting in a sealed airplane.

Stunning details now emerging: this was an operation planned a year and a half in advance, involved smuggling drones into Russia, placing them in containers on top of trucks, arranging for them all to open simultaneously and to strike.

Not to point fingers, but what the hell was LeVar Burton up to all those years?

WELKER: If the big beautiful bill does add to the debt, will Trump own it? JOHNSON: It's not gonna add to the debt W: Experts say this will add trillions to the deficit. Can you really guarantee this will not add one penny of debt? JOHNSON: I'm telling you this is going to reduce the deficit

The right-wing activist Christopher Rufo has stated that his goal is to reduce the number of students who attend college by half.

Florida’s new law makes it nearly impossible for grassroots groups to get citizen initiatives on the ballot. One nonprofit is suing, calling it voter suppression in disguise.

This post is unhinged. It’s time to talk about a wellness check and the 25th Amendment. If the former president posted this about Trump, the right would show up to the White House with pitchforks demanding it.

A truck carrying drones exploded, reportedly in Russia's Amur region. It is unclear whether the explosion occurred before or after the drones were launched.

“The federal government used to prioritize domestic terrorism, and now it’s like domestic terrorism just went away overnight,” Michigan AG Dana Nessel said. “I don’t think that we’re going to get much in the way of cooperation anymore.”

It’s June — that means No Kings Day is almost here. Trump is ignoring the courts and the Constitution, so we’re gathering again on June 14 to remind him there are NO KINGS in our country. Check out our map of No Kings Day events and everything else you need to know: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

If you live in Iowa and aren't deep into Joni Ernst's shit what are you even doing. Not only she mocked Medicaid recipients but now she says voters need Jesus more than Healthcare. She is in the MTG, Boebert, Mace class of gop whacko women.

Wieder wurde Nigeria von sintflutartigen Überschwemmungen getroffen. Die Behörden sprechen derzeit von 151 Toten. Bewohner und Soldaten suchen weiter nach Überlebenden.

🚨 While working families are told there’s no $$$ for Social Security, Medicaid, SNAP, or schools, Trump is spending nearly $100 million in taxpayer funds on a military parade to celebrate himself on June 14. That’s why on June 14, we’re rising up to say NO KINGS. Find or join a protest: NoKings.org

These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to. This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented. So ICE took her into custody. The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck. "I can't breathe."

I’m going to be super clear. No child should be zip tied. Ever! Fuck ICE for traumatizing children. This is child abuse. Every agent that abuses children this way belongs in prison. There’s no justification for this depraved behavior #UnmaskICE www.tpr.org/border-immig...

www.politico.com/news/2025/05... Trump administration’s efforts to strip protections from more than half a million legal immigrants could devastate the health sector, endangering care for the elderly and worsening rates of both chronic and infectious diseases.

Trump hat CBS wg. eines Interviews mit Kamala Harris vor der Wahl geklagt. Statt die obszÜne Klage vor Gericht auszufechten, bietet CBS-Eigentßmer Paramount Trump 15 Mio Dollar an. Paramount braucht nämlich eine behÜrdl. Genehmigung fßr eine Fusion. Trump will 25 Mio + eine Üffentl. Entschuldigung.

My message to Paramount: Don’t you dare pay that money to Trump!

Tattoo-covered Iranian pop star Amir Hossein Maghsoudloo, better known as Tataloo, has reportedly been sentenced to death by an Iranian court after being found guilty of insulting Prophet Muhammad.

Alarming news in the case of Iranian Rapper Amir Tataloo x.com/hra_news/sta... - www.khaama.com/irans-contro... Where is the public support from dissedent Iranian rappers worldwide, what's going on here?

Amir Tataloo war mal Sprachrohr, mal Kritiker des iranischen Regimes. Nun hat der Gefangene offenbar versucht, sich umzubringen. Das bestätigt ein ehemaliger Zellengenosse und Freund des Musikers gegenßber dem SPIEGEL.

It happens every few generations: the Confederates who attempted succession in the 1860s; the robber barons who murdered union organizers and catapulted America into the Great Depression; and it’s why wages stagnated post-Reagan. The rise of greedy oligarchs. https://trib.al/tzbfXwS
