MERKLEY: Are you gonna launch an investigation of the reported violation of the due process of several hundred people? P: It is not for me to call the balls & strikes M: You haven't read the Constitution? It says 'all persons'...it concerns me you're not familiar w/the core concept of due process

@Target @briancornell I can't recall the last time I was in your store, maybe fall....you have certainly fallen from grace! #boycott

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter. They graded it. Bwahahaha.

🔥❄️ Extreme temperatures kill – and working-age men are most at risk. A new study finds nearly 35,000 deaths in India from heatstroke and cold exposure (2001–2019), with the highest rates in Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Bihar. 🔗 www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #SciComm #ClimateHealth 🧪

"RFK Jr says vaccines have DNA particles." 🧪 Does Mr. Kennedy eat any food with animal, plant or fungi sourced substances? Is someone going to tell him?

stealing like meme from my hellsite replies because lmao

Trump administration to cancel $1bn in Biden-era school mental health grants - The Guardian www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Keep going...I've saved so much money since I stopped shopping in Dec.

RFK Jr. ordered the NIH’s Integrated Research Facility in Frederick to stop all research on serious infectious diseases yesterday at 5:00 PM. They study pathogens like Ebola there. You may be familiar with it from The Hot Zone. www.wired.com/story/hhs-ni...

Sen. Sanders: Despite spending over $14,000 for every man, woman, and child on healthcare -- 85 million of us are uninsured or underinsured, and we have 68,000 people every year who die because they can't get to a doctor on time. Can you imagine that?

This! Thank you, Pete, you're one of the very few who makes sense and provides support for all the left and the right to come together.

The fuck? This is untenable. Dude is a walking security threat.

If Pete Hegseth were a real man: a man of dignity, strength, and honesty, he would admit he is not qualified for this position and never belonged here in the first place. Since he is none of those things, he will willingly place the courageous members of our Military and our nation in harm's way.

What we’ve launched today is the first step for how we’re going to evolve verification. The initial set of trusted verifiers includes news orgs who’ve agreed to take on the task of verification for their journalists. In the future, this set will expand, as well as how apps can choose to use them.

So the guy who bankrupted casinos, ran a fake university, got his entire organization banned for fraud, is banned from running a charity, sunk every company he had thinks he knows best how to cut costs and run an agency more efficiently. Bye-bye food safety. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

‪Steve Vladeck‬ takes a (very) deep dive into Justice Alito’s Saturday night dissent in the AARP Alien Enemy Act case—and how it attempts to invent a series of procedural objections to the majority’s intervention that simply don’t exist. As a constitutionalist, Alito is a fraud.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

This!!!!!!!!!

Science doesn’t improve by cutting Black, Hispanic, and women experts. But that’s exactly what happened—38 out of 43 removed from NIH boards were just that. And they wonder why trust in institutions is fading.

Can states withhold the tax revenue we would otherwise send to the feds so we can inspect our own goddamned food? www.cbsnews.com/news/fda-foo...

New in PN: White guy DEI "Pretending that Hegseth got nominated on merit is ridiculous, but it’s a fiction conservatives have all agreed to adopt. To admit he’s not qualified would mean acknowledging that straight white maleness does not automatically confer expertise."

THIS!!!!!!!

The Trump admin won't to a trade deal with the UK unless they repeal LGBTQ+ protections.

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

Quick point. Congress can use the spending fight in September (remember Chuck Schumer surrendered till then) to prevent a single dollar from being used to house prisoners in El Salvador.

I’M GOING TO KEEP POSTING THIS STORY UNTIL ANDRY IS FREED: Gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to Salvadoran prison after a disgraced cop's report Andry Hernandez Romero sought shelter in the U.S. because he was persecuted as a gay man, one of the "particular social groups" allowed to claim asylum.

“Sickening and heartbreaking” Someone who was at the Marge Greene town hall where folks who dissented were arrested/targeted/tased by police — who has voted for both parties — writes about what she saw 👇🏽

Everyone's talking about Katy Perry when we should be talking about Amanda Nguyễn who finally achieved her dream after putting her space career on hold to fight for sexual assault survivors. The first Vietnamese woman in space, she carried an experiment to study women's health in space. #WomenInSTEM

Emergency video: it’s time to start making plans. Either the house steps up to defend the constitution, or our generation does. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...
