100%. and watch the word choices they all use to describe the protestors.

very cool that for ten years people at the heights of political commentary insisted to the point of rage that the paramount threat to free speech was “censorious” college students

Extremely proud to present my second feature article of the 2025 MiLB/MLB season on Haitian-Cuban first baseman Ernesto Martínez Jr. of Holguín, Cuba The Show Notes #18: Ernesto Martínez Jr. Is Fluent in the Language of Baseball Link to story: tangibleuno.substack.com/p/the-show-n...

could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey mayor is arrested at ICE detention center where he was protesting its opening, acting US attorney says.

The Education Department’s civil rights office once helped push a South Dakota school district to treat its Native students equally. Under Trump, that same office decided that helping Indigenous students would discriminate against white students: propub.li/3GIdTRr

🚨🚨 Deranged letter from Education Secretary Linda McMahon to Harvard’s president, cutting off federal funding for any new grants. Worth reading in full. It is NUTS.

Justice Dept. Investigates Minnesota Prosecutor Office for being too concerned about racism.

My family found a home here after fleeing the pogroms in Ukraine. This country accepted us as refugees when we had nothing except the shirts on our backs. We've seen what can happen when we don't speak up about the dangers — it's time to raise the alarm now.

Speaking to NPR in his first media interview since his detention, lawful permanent U.S. resident Mohsen Mahdawi finds peace in meditation and hopes "America will fulfill its promise."

Please highlight this story. ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago. kfor.com/news/local/w...

Agustin Ramirez two-homer game. let the apologies be as loud as the disrespect

ah we’re at the “arresting judges” phase of totalitarianism, cool

A plantation museum focused on the truths of slavery had two grants for Black history and culture terminated in ‘furtherance of president’s agenda’

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

This is a long read, but quite good. As someone who was in Sacramento for Opening Night, tho, I didn't see nearly the level of excitement that the author did. But, it's balanced throughout and worth your time. www.theringer.com/2025/04/22/m...

Pope Francis quoting Tolkien in his Christmas homily 2023. Please pray for the repose of his soul and for all of us who will miss him so very much.

The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.

I find myself getting sincerely emotional about this. That he’s, under the circumstances, okay. That his wife and kids know this after an agonizing month without him. That a Democratic politician cared enough to go and see him, even after getting told no at first. Trying matters. Fighting works.

It's actually wild. There's literally no mention of why Jackie Robinson is important in the MLB press release. At all. Just that he "played his first Major League game on April 15, 1947."

Whitewashing history

Israeli Military Strikes Gaza Hospital Amid Conflict — The IDF reportedly attacked a hospital in Gaza City during patient evacuation, as reported by Al Jazeera. #business #finance https://breakingthenews.net/Article/IDF-strikes-hospital-in-Gaza-City/63908678

The Dodgers decided to surrender to an autocrat and the same forces that would have kept Jackie Robinson out of baseball. I had thoughts on that for @truebluela.bsky.social.

House Speaker Johnson is eyeing big cuts to Medicaid. Nearly 40% of the people in his district in Louisiana rely on it

I do not read anything in the Trump White House's appeal to the Supreme Court that would, as a practical matter, prevent the government from legally disappearing *anyone* to a foreign torture prison by "mistake" ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

I think about this every time Teoscar saves the day

My latest piece @thenation.com breaks down why it is **disgraceful** for this LA Dodgers' team to visit Trump's White House next week. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Working with an interdisciplinary team, we have developed a website to communicate how the White House's proposed cuts to health research would cause losses of $16B and 68,500 jobs. Find out how your community may be impacted. Explore more at SCIMaP: scienceimpacts.org a 🧵

Trump signed an executive order that "improper, divisive or anti-American ideology" is removed from the Smithsonian Institution The order singles out the National Museum of African American History and Culture as problematic

favorite part of the start of fantasy baseball season is refreshing my team page repeatedly until I see my players IL'd so I can make moves.

NEW—After a day of uncertainty on where agents took Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk, she appears to be in a Louisiana facility. 1400+ miles from Somerville, Massachusetts, where she was taken. A judge ordered to not take her out of state without 48 hour notice. She was detained last night.

anyway calling these "war plans" when they were actually plans to blow up an apartment building full of civilians because the girlfriend of a guy we don't like lived there sounds more like "terrorism plans" or perhaps even more accurately "terrorism factory creation plans"

In the midst of a mental health crisis, finding a therapist who takes insurance can feel impossible. Insurers say that’s because there aren’t enough therapists. That’s not entirely true. (Published Aug. 2024)

Nothing like waiting until the night before to promote but... tomorrow at 12pm ET, you’ll be able to watch Fantasy Baseball Today on CBS Sports Network! You can watch live on TV and through the CBS Sports app through your cable provider. @cptowers.bsky.social

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I'm running for Congress.

Restoring this website is not and will not be enough. This is an attempt to whitewash our shared national heritage and is an attack on one of America’s greatest citizens. This should be a national scandal and outrage.
