Bondi declares war on the courts: "What has happened to our judiciary is beyond me ... they are deranged ... we are sending a very strong message today ... we will come after you and we will prosecute you. We will find you."

👀 A DOJ memo obtained by USA Today declares that officers are “authorized” to “enter[] an Alien Enemy’s residence to make an AEA [Alien Enemies Act] arrest where circumstances make it impractible to 1st obtain a Warrant of Apprehension & Removal…” 1/ www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

A couple years ago the people banning books were like "we're not banning books we're just removing them from schools, you can still get them elsewhere" and now here we are

Ryan Coogler discusses his contract for #Sinners “I’ve been in the industry long enough to know what kinds of deals are possible, and nothing about this deal is a new thing ... I asked for a few things for this project ... for what it was about and what it meant for my family" 🎥 Democracy Now

"…the risk associated with COVID was found to be analogous to driving impairments seen with alcohol consumption at legal limits. …Acute C19 as measured by PCR➕ was associated with an OR of 1.25 (1.23-1.26 95% CI) for subsequent car crashes, a 25% increase in crash risk associated with acute C19".

Eugenicists are so stupid.

This sounds like if Joni Mitchell grew up listening to Tool, I love it soooooo much

I know several activists who’ve protested Trump, the Iraq War, climate change, and more. But as far as I know, they haven’t made a peep about clean indoor air in schools or hospitals—they haven’t sent an email or had a discussion with another parent, etc. Why do you think that is? #Covid

“McDonalds workers in Denmark make more than Honda workers in Alabama” is such a key point. It’s the institutions, stupid.

Disabled people have been warning for years that the pandemic response (or lack thereof) was going to lead to fascism We begged you to wear a mask. To fight for clean air. To refuse “the vulnerable” aside just because you wanted to to “back to normal” Include us in resistance efforts. We can help

A second child has died of measles in Texas. The child was unvaccinated. Tragic and preventable, this is a direct consequence of anti-vaccine disinformation.

a friend sent me this one

Jackson Mississippi Hands Off Rally!

Reposting some photos from today's "Hands Off" march in Gulfport, MS, now that I'm back at my laptop. I apologize for the duplication but I really feel this was important; i.e., these folks came out in blood red MS to express their anger at Trump, Musk, and the useless Trumpian toadies ...

#HandsOff in Chicago

me to the united states: this could be us but you playin’

If you are in Louisiana, reach out to the Long COVID Campaign to coordinate action to restore funding for LC research.

Big disinformation accounts posting that Covid is now "a cold" often have severe unreported financial conflicts of interest, accumulating tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in subscription and ad revenue. This excerpt is from the 10-min mark in the longer video at pmc19.com/data

Watch seismic waves from the M7.7 earthquake in Myanmar ripple across North America. This animation, called a Ground Motion Visualization (GMV), shows how the ground moved as detected by seismometers across the continent.

🚨Democratic Military veterans run for Va. House in GOP districts “‘I have been in combat, and I did this for our country, and it feels like it needs to be done here too… This time, I will be fighting for the rights of all Virginians.’” @votevets.org virginiamercury.com/2025/03/28/m...

An outlier in the media world. Respect!

I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

🚨 Mythbusting #LongCovid with Dr Amir Khan🚨 Long Covid is real. It’s serious. And it’s affecting millions. On #LongCovidAwarenessDay, #DrAmirKhan joins us to bust harmful myths. Watch, learn, and share—because the more we talk about Long Covid, the harder it is to ignore.

Podcast episode about the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department.

One thing the researchers noted was her love of yogurt. The researchers think the supercentenarian's diet choices helped to encourage healthy gut bacteria – and indeed her gut microbiome had the characteristics of someone much younger. www.sciencealert.com/study-on-wor...

Every republican accusation is a confession.

SCOOP: Hooded ICE agents snatched Indian-born Georgetown postdoc Badar Suri from Rosslyn street Monday, per court filing. Like Khalil, linked to pro-Palestinian views & Rubio 'foreign policy' power, lawyer says. Then whisked to Louisiana. w/ @kyledcheney www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

A failed Republican candidate was found guilty Wednesday of hiring people to shoot at the homes of local Democratic leaders after he lost an election for the New Mexico House of Representatives, according to his attorney.

This story is horrific and terrifying. Then, near the end, this: "The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

This power grab is unprecedented, unbounded, and unconstitutional.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.

It’s Long COVID Awareness Day. While the worst of the pandemic is over for most, there’s more we must do to educate people about Long COVID and ensure that those in our communities who are struggling get the help they need. That's why I will keep working to pass my bipartisan Long COVID Support Act.

THIS FIGHT IS NOT OVER. TOMORROW MORNING: everyone MUST call en masse. Do you have a recurring donation to your Democratic Senator? PULL IT IF THEY ARE VOTING YES. We can still fight back!!

holy shit this question at the Rep. Chuck Edwards town hall 🔥🔥🔥

Wow. Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC. “I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!” Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out. We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.
