I want to say again to academics who are interested in public writing. Look locally. Sure national outlets are good and I do that too, but this kind of visibility in your community can have a real impact.

Heroin addict and roadkill enthusiast, RFK Jr. kills flu shot campaigns and cancels a major vaccination conference.

This is a shameful way to treat our fellow citizens who are public servants. This doesn’t make America great.

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

So we drop new episodes on Saturday Come for @justinwolfers.bsky.social stay for @ianbremmer.com podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Wrote a little something in the mighty @rollingstone.com about #TeslaTakedown. In anticipation of our upcoming second weekend of protests! Join or create an event for ANY day and ANY country at Teslatakedown.com. Download our flyers and background to get informed and get involved!

Make that “drunk white male mediocrity.” Imagine a black man or any woman being drunk or drinking while executing any kind of high-level government position, much less one this extraordinarily important

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Hegseth is going to fire every woman or Black person in military leadership.

I would like to thank Meta for protecting the community during the rise of fascism in America by prohibiting me from liking and following accounts.

Canadians are now referring to the United States as the 11th province

More of this energy everywhere please!

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

Somebody send this out to the lab.

We’re in the bad place.

And the pro-Ukraine crowd.

Adam Kinzinger is rousing the anti-trump crowds over on substack. open.substack.com/live-stream/...

fantasizing about a world where an opposition congress responds to trump’s attempts to usurp legislative power by defunding the entire white house staff

What a contemptible band of cowards www.vanityfair.com/news/story/t...

We were called hysterical for saying he was forming his very own brown shirts ….

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

I get all the news I need from the Mueller Report

Whitehouse: "Remember Trump-Russia? The Mueller report said there was Trump-Russia. The bipartisan Senate intelligence report said there was Trump-Russia. Repeated trials brought in evidence showing Trump-Russia. There was, is, and forever shall be Trump-Russia."

Normalize calling Republicans Nazis.

Last night MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell said Trump was the first U.S. president to “switch sides during a war.” That aptly describes Trump’s betrayal but it can’t begin to convey the depravity of what Trump did in throwing our ally overboard and lying about every facet of Putin’s criminal aggression.

Pritzker ❤️

It’s not a “spat” @nytimes.com and fuck you. At this point you’re either monsters or morons.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

'It's morally disgusting': Trump torched for lying Ukraine 'should have never started' Putin's war

The White House reposted Husk laughing at their horrifying joke about chaining illegal immigrants, in a video of actual human beings who are being deported being chained. It plays the sounds of the chains jingling—as if it would elicit ASMR, the pleasurable autonomous sensory meridian response.

Includes phone numbers and participation in government programs such as Medicaid. A potential end goal here is data matching across different systems to chase after fraud. Sounds good on paper, but the risk of false positives is very high (see election administration efforts in this area).

Do banks no know we don’t need them? But they do need us?

Nope. That pesky judicial branch interprets the law. Those annoying members of Congress pass the laws.

Elon Musk fired a disabled Veteran with 3 tours of duty from his job serving other Veterans at the VA. Elon’s companies get billions from defense contracts. He’s happy to profit off our servicemembers - but when he can no longer make money off them, he kicks them to the curb.

Note to media Stop saying these are peace talks. Russia, a terrorist state, invaded sovereign Ukraine in 2014 w the intention as they stated to eliminate all Ukrainians & steal lead. They are committing genocide & can stop the war at any moment by getting the hell out of Ukraine

🏆

The people who were convinced to vote for Trump because of MAHA’s promise to clean up their food are getting absolutely owned right now

1. Meta removed a Facebook ads criticizing Elon Musk's efforts to seize Americans' private information through DOGE. A notice from Meta said the ads violated its rules on "Unacceptable Business Practices."

Don’t trump and Putin already talk every day and share a condo in Greenland

Elon Musk has cancelled millions of vacations for parents who actually want to know their kids

This is revolting. The Times needs to learn to code.
