A bad sign, not just because of what it recalls historically, but for what it promises about the future. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R): "We are all afraid…I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real."

So Trump *has* conceded he has the ability to bring García back. So not doing so would be contempt of court.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

Goal achieved: An unusual number of people in an unusual number of places. 1,300 globally. There were probably more than 10,000 speakers alone at rallies today. Baffling to think about this scale!

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

THE FIRING OF JOY REID IS AN ABSOLUTELY RACIST AND COWARDLY MOVE. JOY WAS ONE OF THE BEST AT TAKING IT STRAIGHT TO TRUMP WITH NO FILTERS JUST LIKE RACHEL AND JEN. IT'S A DISGUSTING CAPITULATION TO TRUMP BY THE NEW HEAD OF MSNBC AND AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE NETWORK. TRADITIONAL MEDIA IS FAILING US ALL

Today I went down to the Stonewall National Monument to call out Trump’s efforts to erase transgender people from history and deny their very existence. To the trans community and those watching: we see you, we value you, and we will never stop fighting for you.

RFK Jr. isn’t impressed.

Bezos rolling over on the Post endorsement. Zuckerberg visiting Mar a Lago to bend the knee. Musk joining the administration. The tech folks and much of our media are obeying in advance and Trump, the luckiest man alive!, has never faced so little media and social media scrutiny. 🤷🏽‍♂️

A third of us tried to save two thirds of us from themselves. They’re about to find out.

Such brazen corruption happening right out in the open. Welcome to the oligarchy.

Why do Trumpers want to abolish the Department of Education? Because it’s in charge of prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race and sex in schools that get federal funding, a policy Congress set in 1975 through the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

I’ve seen enough to make a call: Bluesky is going to be a legit competitor to Twitter. Sweet.

Quite so.
