"The employees grew concerned that the NLRB's confidential data could be exposed, particularly after they started detecting suspicious log-in attempts from an IP address in Russia."

Trump’s defiance of the Supreme Court threatens all of our rights. I will continue to press for Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s release.

Americans pay into Social Security their entire working lives to live comfortably as seniors— But Elon Musk and Donald Trump don't care. Seniors are already seeing delays, and DOGE is teeing up more cuts to cripple the program. They're playing with YOUR money and YOUR future.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

"We are outsourcing torture and murder. What kind of president, what kind of political party, can look at that with satisfaction?" And what American can not at least wonder about their own security? New from @monacharen.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/are-any-of...

Cannot happen. Will not happen.

New in PN: RFK Jr. and the great discrediting of HHS "Though Trump himself was a leading purveyor of misinformation during covid, he was helped along by government experts who for the most part managed to inform the public in spite of him. Now, the anti-science hucksterism is policy."

The US has blocked a G7 statement to condemn Russia for its Palm Sunday missile attack on Ukraine's city of Sumy, which killed at least 35 people and injured over 100, including children. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Apparently we have #FreeIran dissidents in the neighborhood!

Jaguar leapers, springing forward!

Martin O'Malley just mentioned state attorneys general filing state kidnapping charges. Just imagine the collective cheer in this country if state troopers pulled over, arrested and cuffed a van full of masked ICE fascists.

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.

The chief information officer at the Internal Revenue Service said he would resign, according to an email sent to staff and seen by Reuters, the latest in a string of high-profile departures at the tax-collecting agency reut.rs/3YusE08

I know there's a lot going on right now but, uh, I hope nobody is too attached to the US Aid To Navigation buoy system. Apparently Coast Guard buoy tenders are being sent to the border, where they have no training or equipment to help that mission. Remember this when ships start running around!

It's important for people to understand that we're on a trajectory that eventually leads to political prisoners (first non-citizens, then citizens) being sent to these camps.

"Sleepy Joe" got Brittney Griner back from Russia. Mango Mussolini is too weak to get an innocent man back from El Salvador.

Think of the football as a metaphor for America under the Trump-Vance regime.

Trump has diverted media attention from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to his fake "peace" process. In fact, American weakness enables Russian aggression as a new offensive looms. Useful corrective here. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

About 1 in every 60 people in El Salvador is incarcerated. That is more than twice the runner up (Cuba, which is around the same ballpark of estimates for North Korea) and more than three times the notoriously high rate in the United States. It is about on par with the gulag population under Stalin.

Monkey Ward's, along with Western Auto and the Sears automotive department, was a great kid destination!

I only want to ban carbon fiber from F1 wings and external bodywork (not the chassis). There was a caution in yesterday's race caused by the fragility of carbon fiber. Make the wings aluminum and the side pods a more resilient plastic. Neither will explode into a debris field of tire-slicing shards.

3 years ago Ukraine sank the Russian Black Sea Fleet Flagship Moskva. According to recent revelations, the Biden administration was angry and panicked because the White House "hadn’t intended to enable the Ukrainians to attack such a potent symbol of Russian power."

this *especially* if you have GOP reps. I know, they're cowards, they agree with Trump, whatever -- but if they're getting inundated with calls from constituents, that's gonna factor in too, for at least some of them.

SPJ and a coalition of organizations dedicated to supporting and advancing journalism reaffirm the essential role of ethical journalism in a functioning democracy during #SPJEthicsWeek. Read the full statement on the SPJ website: www.spj.org/journalism-o...

impeachment removal constitutional convention

Another court order that Trump is now openly defying. Republicans in Congress assured us repeatedly that Trump would never defy a court order. It is obvious that he simply doesn’t care though after the Supreme Court gave him immunity.

Before press came in — but while live feed was running on Bukele’s feed — Trump said to him: “home-growns are next. … You’re gonna need to build about 5 more places.” x.com/nayibbukele/...

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

Not only government jobs. Jobs for companies doing business with the government, pretty much everyone, are also freezing hiring.

One of the hottest guests on MAGA podcasts nowadays is a philosopher from Moscow who argues that Russian soldiers should obliterate what he calls Ukraine’s “Nazi regime”
