There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

This is such a threat to the Search & Rescue community. Not only for the safety of responders, but for Preventive SAR efforts... NOAAs information, data, and especially its warning systems are vital to just about every aspect of #EmergencyManagement and #PublicSafety...

The very strategic Doug Ford - called a snap election in the middle of Winter. - sent out $200 bribes to buy your vote. Today, corruption won yet again. #OntarioVotes2025

Doug Ford has fallen short. Vote for change. As comforting as continuity may seem, what Ontario needs is change. Liberals, NDP, Greens: take your pick. A vote for any is a vote for a better Ontario. #StarEditorial

I truly hope I'm wrong about this. America is a nation of guns and mass shootings. We have 400 million guns. There is rage, misinformation, and now people will lose their SNAP benefits and health care. It'll take a few months before people really feel it. That anger and rage will find targets.

“The DOGE chief, who’s been gutting workers at the FAA while nabbing key contracts, appeared surprised that planes don’t always fly in a straight line.” “He acts like he’s a genius.” Most malignant narcissists do.

A new McCarthy era is upon us. Stupid, depressing, and dangerous as ever. I wonder whose name will carry the dunce cap in the history books. Too many are complicit. I’ll need to find upset and action, but for now I’m feeling grief at the dehumanization inherent to all this.

I think by virtue of being on this platform, an unsuppressed news environment compared to other spaces, we're all 2–4 weeks ahead in our psychological processing of the doom-level. There is something we can, every one of us, politically connected or not, actually do to help. 1/2

Aaron Bushnell died by self-immolation in protest of the Gaza genocide a year ago today. His memory should stir a fire in our souls, and force us to evaluate our commitment to a better world. https://buff.ly/3XgX2L2 #Palestine #Israel

"Mark my words: these elected officials will be responsive to their own voters. The answer, then, is to put pressure on these Republicans, because if they start to lose support from the very people responsible for electing them, that becomes existential for them in a way that Trump’s threats can’t."

I enjoyed this review of THE LAST AMERICAN ROAD TRIP from a reader who had never encountered my previous books. This book means a lot to me -- my past books laid out the crimes; my new one one shows what we have left to fight for and preserve. You can preorder here: www.thelastamericanroadtrip.com

This is how to correct #misinformation from Trump claiming that 🇺🇸 gave most of the funding for the Ukraine. This is the fact-checking we need, rather than carrying water for Trump by just posting videos of him repeating his lies and calling that news. It’s not news. It’s propaganda.

What drives me crazy about the anti-DEI rhetoric is everyone wants to be judged on merit. But you can't be judged on merit if you can't even get in the door because you don't fit some prejudiced definition of who is capable and who isn't

From a guy who used to work there: Rachel is a remarkable person and the best TV news talent there is. If she says something is fucked up, it is. Getting rid of Joy, who dared to see through this fascism bullshit years ago and had the gall of occasionally being funny about it, is dumb.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.

This article is totally insipid. Paul Wells spends half of it painting a picture of Poilievre being privately courteous and friendly. But that's based on Wells' PERSONAL access -- as a white man with power. I've heard stories about his private interactions that paint a very different picture.

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social it really doesn’t sound like you understand the gravity of this situation. Annexation of Canada is a declaration of war. It’s also illegal in international law. You’re basically just throwing the gas can in the camp fire to see if anyone finds that interesting.
