"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

The House GOP snuck a provision into the budget bill that would strip away any consequences for officials who defy a judge’s ruling. It’s yet another attack on what @judgeluttig.bsky.social says is “the last obstacle to a president with designs on tyrannical rule.” Luttig joins @ 11aET #Velshi

Trump’s profits off the presidency are breathtaking and yet the public yawns. We need to fortify and enforce conflict of interest rules and educate the public about why they matter. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/u...

Thank you Canada🇨🇦 for welcoming our dear friends from Afghanistan whom we met in India while they waited with their refugee status. I’m saddened, embarrassed & angered that the US, my country, has turned its back on our allies & those who had helped us for so many years.

Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion. It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make. By @davidarmstrongx.bsky.social

Kudos to Deployed Resources for terminating a $3.8 billion contract with the Dept of Homeland Security citing Trump’s executive order about “radical transparency" and "wasteful spending,” according to NBC News.

Even as Pope Francis was hospitalized in the last months of his life, he still occasionally kept up what had been a near-nightly ritual: calling the hundreds of Palestinian Christians huddling in the only Roman Catholic church in the war-torn Gaza Strip.

'Dandelions,' was painted by the Danish artist Bertha Wegmann around 1910. It wasn't an arbitrary choice of a plant to paint: the dandelion was used to promote the women’s liberation movement in Scandinavia because of its capacity for uncontrolled, strong-willed growth.

Trump is not done attacking our elections. He and his supporters plot every day to undermine the right to vote. They are constantly looking for opportunities to exploit weaknesses in the election system. This is their top priority. The question for us is whether it is ours as well.

Wikler: Susan Crawford’s victory will send a message to the entire country that Elon Musk’s illegal vote-buying schemes will trigger an electoral avalanche in the other direction. If we can make that clear, maybe we can shut this down before it infects the rest of the country in 2026 and beyond.

Basketball in India doesn’t get much attention but these players - Kushal, Harsh, Arvind, Pranav - deserve a shoutout for their FIBA Asia 3x3 performance in Singapore this weekend. Reaching the quarterfinals by beating higher ranked teams like Korea & Philippines. Really proud of these young men🇮🇳🏀
