If you’re an American should watch the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown ep on Iran. A deeply humanizing look at a country full of people just like you and me. I watched it after Anthony died and it moved in ways that are hard to relay. I also immediately ran out to try kabob koobideh and tahdig.

In a time of fear & threats, Seattle’s incoming Police Chief Shon Barnes just reminded us what real courage looks like. A Marine, a leader, & a defender of the Constitution—he stood up for our right to protest and pledged to keep his city safe, not silent. This is what public service should be.🇺🇸❤️

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

New from my investigators: Trump’s IRS nominee Billy Long appears to be implicated in court documents related to a major bribery scheme centered in his old Congressional district. The White House and FBI either didn’t bother looking into it, or they’re covering it up.

Trump and DOGE are already weaponizing Americans' most personal information to target groups and individuals that they don't like. Apparently airlines are helping them do it. My team and I have already contacted these airlines to get answers and will keep you updated.

Even if you hadn’t been masking in public lately, now’s good time to normalize everyone wearing masks again for all sorts of reasons. Justify it anyway you like- covid, anti gov’t surveillance, bad air quality from wildfires, pick what works for you, just, you know, wear a mask please & thank you

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone. If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?
