This is a great article by Charlie Brinkhurst-Cuff about PCOS and the misinformation surrounding it, but the most important point is missed - failure to manage PCOS can cause cancer. 1/2 I was diagnosed with PCOS – and was soon drowning in misinformation www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

It is a disgrace that the Department of Defense continues to post partisan political messages on social media and a disgrace that the DHS Secretary is making political statements about elections from the Oval Office. They piss on this country’s traditions daily. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Couldn’t help but notice that neither the Times or Post have a story up about Trump saying he’s not sorry that Joe Biden has cancer. I guess that’s just Trump being Trump ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is Hugo. He has liked to wave since he was a pup. Proud to say he has never missed a chance to say hello. 13/10

Mike Waltz, praising Trump yesterday, 24 hours before Trump fired him.

This is a big deal—not just a process-based ruling, but a holding that Trump’s Alien Enemy Act proclamation is substantively invalid on its face. This will obviously not be the last word, but it’s a really important step in the AEA litigation.

I'm going to tell the kids this was RFK Jr.

YES!

The nominee for U.S. Attorney in D.C. is a Jan. 6 conspiracy theorist and celebrant who praised a white supremacist Hitler-lover as an “extraordinary man, and extraordinary leader.” Are there no Republicans who will oppose this disgraceful nomination? www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

I think we could all use some lessons on how to safely scream like a demon right now.

Raskin: So on the logic of this arrest of Judge Dugan, all of the people in the trump administration who participated in defying that order by Judge Boasberg themselves, could be arrested for interfering with a legal proceeding and perhaps other criminal charges like kidnaping..

He just plays President—does a daily Oval Office show, gets some attention, signs fancy papers—and they only tell him what they need him to believe, like, “The Supreme Court backed me 9-0.” And he’s fine with it! He treats not knowing about world events like they’re an episode of CSI he missed.

NEW: In a SCATHING decision, Judge Briones of the Western District of Texas absolutely SAVAGED the government over this case, tearing to shreds ICE’s hearsay “evidence” that this husband and wife were in Tren de Aragua as “completely and wholly unsubstantiated” — and ordered their immediate release!

OMG www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

This! She was not adjudicated an illegal. Use of the word "deport" pisses me off. If anything she was kidnapped!

Florida, like pretty much every state, prohibits licensed attorneys from making inflammatory and prejudicial statements like this about pending cases.

Arresting Judge Dugan is a dangerous attack on our courts and a blatant abuse of power. Trump is weaponizing the federal government and attacking the rule of law. This is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.

“It doesn’t matter who you are, you’re going to be prosecuted," said Attorney General Pam Bondi. Unless, of course, you are a violent insurrectionist who assaults police officers, smears shit in the US capitol, and tries to overthrow an election on behalf of Donald Trump.

NEW: Abrego Garcia is getting a lot of attention, but many people are asking about the rest of the men being unlawfully held in CECOT. Here's what's going on with them. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/so-what-ab...

Well, at least it's on the record now. Too bad it doesn't matter to MAGA.
