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"

Shout out to Jeffrey Goldberg for reporting on this now instead of waiting two years to put it in a book.

Txt STOP to opt out of updates on war plans

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

🚨I converted the list of terminated #NIH grants (as of 3/22) into a google sheet. I added activity codes and award jurisdictions (see tabs for grant count and $ by each). Note this HHS list likely does not include all planned/completed terminations as of this date.🚨 Please use, share and distribute!

the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed

Can’t make this up.

From Joe Sacco’s “War on Gaza”

This is what happens when you don't arrest, charge, try, and put in prison the Bush administration fuckers who allowed torture and abandoned habeas corpus at Gitmo. It is one of the great failures of the Obama administration.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

#TeslaTakedown

The collection of the new The Toxic Avenger comic I wrote drops April 1. That's all five issues under one cover. You can pre-order at a bookstore, comic shop, or online right now. I'm selling a few through my site: www.mattbors.com/books

CNN: A new poll gives us a sense of who Democrats and Democratic leaning voters think best aligns with the party's core values. And that's Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Protesting outside the Tesla dealership today.

Time to boycott Senate donations and sign petitions. Chuck Schumer has gotta go.

The grimmest realization is not the very old one that Trump is a hyper-sensitive narcissist who thinks criticizing him should be illegal. The grimmest realization is that a substantial number of Americans are born serfs, best suited for a monarchy, who thinks that’s manly and admirable and right.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

New Yorkers: Call Sen. Gillibrand’s office to vote NO on cloture and NO on the Republican Spending Bill. They vote in the morning. ☎️: (202) 224-4451

First we take Toronto Then we take Nuuk

I left this message for my two Senators, @schiff.senate.gov and @padilla.senate.gov : Please vote No on Cloture and on the Republican Spending Bill. As the minority party, there is very little you can do to prevent the unconstitutional destruction of our Federal…

A picture says a thousand words.

@padilla.senate.gov PLEASE take a firm stance against the CR. No votes for funding until the lawbreaking stops. From 92117.

One of my least-favorite bad takes is when a centrist Dem says “if the left is mad at me and the right is mad at me, I must be doing something right.” That is not what it means. The left is mad at you bc you’re doing something wrong and unpopular, and the right is mad at you bc you’re a Democrat.
