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...

For a fan, I think it is as much of a privilege to see a team lose a championship at home, being with them in the building/stadium, as it is to see a team win. If you've done it, perhaps you know what I mean.

Team USA has won the gold in the 2025 Women's World Championship (hockey) in a game that featured a first period goalie battle to 4 goals in minutes to the backup goalie coming in for injury, to OT.... truly a little of everything. [graphic from USA Hockey]

New England locals, heads up elevated fire risk today with the high wind, min recent rain, and vegetation not greened up yet. common for this time of year, but with the sunny holiday, ppl might be doing yard work or even grilling etc. #newengland #wx

"Demands for unity or forgiveness from people who have caused harm that do not involve full accountability for harm are not very interesting to me, and most certainly invite us to do a full-on power analysis of the situation: who holds power, what is at stake for whom, and so forth." 1/

the best Easter message comes from a Jewish man...

Border guards showed footage from yesterday's prisoner exchange. In total, 277 Ukrainian defenders were released from Russian captivity.

tonight I am thinking about: there were *bomb threats* against multiple precincts with large # s of Dem voters in different states attempting to disrupt voting just one of the irregularities of that night

"But data in recent years hasn’t been available because a 2021 state law stopped schools from collecting vaccine status from students." Brilliant Montana GOP. Don't collect data so we can stick our heads in the sand. Result of stupid anti-Covid masks and vaccine paranoia.

In addition to the protests today, it is the 250th commemoration of Paul Revere's ride and the Battles of Lexington and Concord, when the people of Massachusetts decided they'd had enough. The moment is not being lost on us in New England.

In the two weeks since we’ve had the first Hands Off protest, Trump has chosen to ignore a Supreme Court ruling. Today in my blood red city of Tyler, TX, we have two protests going on. Two different locations - Hands Off, and a second against fascism. The tide has turned. Knives are on the table.

Five minutes before Putin's "ceasefire", Russia attacked a residential building in Kherson. "Don't trust Putin, this is Putin's truce," the person says in the video.

They don't want peace

🇺🇸 🤝 🇺🇦 Republican Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick visited the front lines in Ukraine & signed a bill for Putin. "It was a great honor for me today to deliver a very personal message to Putin from the front lines near the Russian border.

Tomorrow, Saturday the ninteenth, is the day for Americans to take to the streets and make our voices heard. There are rallies all across the US. Every major city. I'll be out there too. Fellas, this could be our last chance to get loud before Trump cuts off aid for Ukraine.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

reminder, there are over 1000 protest events planned for tomorrow across the US. If you have time and physical/mental ability to go, please do.

Direct threat to eliminate entire Federal districts because they don't agree.

The Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor's Office shared drone footage of the aftermath of today's Russian missile attack on the city. Russia targeted multiple apartment buildings, school, food store, coffee takeout. 1 person died 98 got injured

My brother sent me this . I foolishly asked " who made this?" Cause I thought it was some right wing conspiracy site. It's the freaking WHITE HOUSE! Our government! I am just shaking my head in disbelief and sadness. www.whitehouse.gov/lab-leak-tru...

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social Did you happen to see the White House (the government account) tweet today at the New York Times?

For the 142th consecutive night, Rustaveli avenue is blocked. ✅ #GeorgiaProtests continue—and at times, they feel like they’re even growing in size and determination.

The possible EU visa-free suspension is already taking over other issues in Georgia. It’s gonna be big.

Americans are entitled to and should demand better than this from the President of the United States.

periodic reminder, if you would like me to Follow back, just say so here in replies or tell me.

The government of the United States is using its power to intimidate the nation's oldest and most prestigious institute of higher education. youtu.be/_lrHxVWkL5Y?...
