Very cool to see other countries peacefully and swiftly rejecting Trumpism and asking sane people to run shit. Maybe we should think about, you know, doing that here

The entirety of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health was wiped out last night in a form letter sent by RFK Jr. NIOSH is an agency in the CDC that investigates workplace hazards and finds solutions. It protects workers, so it’s gone. Even firefighters.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

Remember in 2020 when Donald Trump said on the campaign trail that Joe Biden, who has attended Catholic Mass virtually every week of his life, was "against God" and wanted "to hurt God?" Good times.

The stream I'm watching this game on is using the Rangers' announcers for the audio, and let me tell you their excuses for Texas right now are ridiculously hilarious. They're making it sound like the #Mariners are suddenly as powerful as the Dodgers. #GoMs

In Reagan's 1980s, America had just 35 undocumented immigrants behind bars. Today, nearly 48,000 sit in squalid detention, many thrown there by a mask-wearing U.S. secret police that smashes homes, cars and violates human rights It's time to abolish ICE. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

The worst news is that the GDP collapse came before “Liberation Day” (April 2), when the worst tariff chaos truly started. The Q1 decline was from overall Trump chaos, early tariff talk, layoffs, DOGE, etc. But that number doesn’t even capture the worst of what’s been happening, or what’s coming.

I think it's important we call out Nazi tactics wherever they are and whomever they are targeting. Right now, they're being used against immigrants and trans people. If we don't nip it now, it'll be someone else next.
