Happy Easter to all who are celebrating today. This season of renewal invites us all to believe in the triumph of light over darkness, life over death, love over hate.

WOW! Don Pettit turned 70 while returning to Earth. He is one of my favorite astronauts. He is a genius in the lab, an educator and science commentator, a photographer, and all around amazing human being. Happy Birthday Don!

The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law

Guys, this is David Brooks in the NY Times. If it's like this 90 days into this presidency with people who wouldn't be caught dead saying it last year, imagine it in two years. Something good is happening, we just have to lift everybody up so they can see it. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/17/o...

This is what censorship looks like. All of American culture is built on top of the 1st Amendment. #THE #OhioStateUniversity is capitulating with this fascist regime to derive students of their rights. How can any international student feel safe at #OhioState to express their freedom of expression?

The Crew are banning signs and banners from the entire stadium during the Miami game because they know some of those signs or banners will be critical of their decision to move the game to Cleveland and they are too soft to deal with that level of criticism.

I hope this is taught to future generations. Cory Booker just earned himself a whole hell of a lot of respect from me. This was incredible and is exactly what we need in this moment. Not meek little signs, nor censuring fellow democrats, and most certainly not capitulating to their fascist agenda.

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

Cory Booker just gave the longest speech in the history of Congress and concluded by apologizing to everyone who had to stay up all night keeping the chamber open and operating.

Libraries are essential for many communities. But funding for them is constantly being reduced, and we are losing these places of knowledge.

So much for the first Amendment. If you are or know someone who is a student you should be scrubbing your social media. It’s also up to U.S. citizens to carry to torch and protect these vulnerable groups. www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/u...

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income. Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

There are few genuinely evil people in that administration, but Rubio is one of them. There is no boot he won’t lick, no humiliation he won’t endure, no ethical line he won’t cross if it means he gets an iota more power.

This is going to get worse, not better. Never underestimate the American public’s thirst for performative cruelty towards The Other: defendants, foreigners, anyone they’ve been conditioned to see as less than human. We’re the country that made lynchings into picnics.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Assuming we make it through the whole “prevent fascists from taking over our government” thing, this country needs to follow through with a very uncomfortable conversation on getting rid of Fox News permanently. They are a hostile propaganda arm for evangelical white nationalists.
