"Jose Padilla was performing pure political theater," says man currently performing blatant political theater, without the slightest hint of shame.

They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."

Kristi Noem: “I feel better already!”

North Korea out there calling balls and strikes.

Keep an eye out for the judge's remarks to be published. I hope the transcript will be made available promptly (it isn't as a matter of course). This has to do with termination of NIH grants—unsupported by any reasoning or evidence &, even worse, motivated by a desire to discriminate.

Yassss! Go Team 💙

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Nezza says she sang national anthem in Spanish at Dodger Stadium against team's wishes

Utah voters: Are these really your values? Mike Lee is the best you can do?

It’s not hyperbole to say that the deaths in Minnesota are on the GOP’s hands. They’ve built this political environment and they’ve allowed a demagogue to spread hate. This is entirely on them.

Newsom’s social media team is killing it. (This isn’t an old picture. It’s from right now. I asked.) 😂😂😂😂

Yesssssss… I love this 🙌🏼

No Kings protest at the state Capitol grounds, Richmond, VA. #NoKings, Sic Semper Tyrannis

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

Obama is the best of ‘em!

This is what rule by the confidently ignorant looks like; sabotage stuff you don't understand and then discover it was actually doing vital work well at trivial cost

'80s kids will remember.

The report HHS sent to congress to justify changes in vaccine recommendations for healthy non-elderly & pregnant people has all kinds of misrepresentations/errors as outlined by this report & clearly does not accurately reflect the state of the scientific literature kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

“We found this individual possessed a second, far more lethal string of words locked and loaded, and I’m terrified to think how the situation would have shaken out if he’d been able to say even one of them aloud,” said Kristi Noem theonion.com/kristi-...

I would say he follows her around like a puppy dog but so far he has survived.

Tomorrow. #BoneSpurs #NoKings

Today, a United States Senator was arrested for asking a question of a federal official, in a federal building, as was his right. If it can happen to a sitting U.S. Senator, it can happen to anyone. Silence is complicity. We are at a crossroads. We must speak up. @alex-padilla4ca.bsky.social‬

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone.   If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

Head's up!

What they are saying: Make America Healthy Again What they are doing: - Removing millions from healthcare access - Restricting vaccine access - Slashing the budget for medical research in half

dude this party is such an echo chamber. it's just friends hanging out and chilling and having a good time. you need to invite some people over who want to kill you with hammers

The Washington Post, which silenced its Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist and reduced its opinion pages to a defense of “free markets and democracy” alone, would like to lecture other people on the importance of a free and full exchange of all ideas.

The law must always be grounded in fundamental principles such as equal rights and due process, or it becomes a tool of oppression.

Double.

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"
