We’re in the DOGE Subcommittee hearing, but where’s Elon? Is the “oversight” in the room with us?  Republicans wanted to talk about NGOs and Stacey Abrams. But, Trump’s out here slapping a for sale sign on the White House lawn—and y’all wanna play games?

Chris Murphy on Trump's travel ban: The bill actually costs money for 40% of the public. You get poorer if you're in the bottom 40%. The richest families get a tax cut of $270k. Nobody wants that. It's super unpopular. So how do you get it done? You distract people by making them afraid

Even if "white British" will be a minority in the UK in 40 years - so what? Seriously, so what? What is so terrible about that? Make people spell out their horrors. Make them spell out the things they are supposedly not allowed to say. Make them own it.

BREAKING: Linda McMahon just embarrassed the entire Department of Education. She told Congress we ranked “very low” in reading and math in 1979. Senator Markwayne Mullin had to stop her and say: “We were number one.” You can’t fix education when you don’t even know its history.

We don’t celebrate Pride for the rainbows or parades, we do it because right now someone out there believes they don’t deserve love, just because of who they are or who they love. That’s why we celebrate Pride—because we want to build a world where no one feels that way.

A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for. Kudos, Sir.🌦️

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

I don’t know what I did to piss off that bottle of Birmingham Pen Co. Ohio River ink, but after it burbled out from under the cap I had to get out the Lava Soap to clean off my hands and the spray cleaner for the dollops on the tile. #fountainpen

A library patron, noticing our Pride month book display: "I don't approve of this." "Well, good news. After much discussion we decided that you're not required to check out any of those books."

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK. America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

Canadians make up the largest proportion—nearly 28 percent—of international travelers visiting Florida. They also comprise the largest number of international visitors for the entire United States. But that comfortable relationship may be taking a turn.

It is deeply hilarious that the Hudson's Bay Company was founded in 1670 and chugged along for three and a half centuries and Private Equity finished it off in like five years.

Yesterday, June 2, was an interesting day at work. I was reporting a story about how the Education Department hadn't delivered a report to Congress on the Condition of Education, despite the June 1 deadline mandated by law. 🧵 (1/9)

What if faculty senates and unions and so forth worked on adopting these kinds of measures into contracts and handbooks? All creative work done on behalf of the university (teaching, grading, etc., etc.) is to be done by human beings. Universities are meat shops too

EVERY state in the nation is suffering under the Trump regime. PLEASE, before you condemn entire states to death with “y’all voted for this,” know that there are MILLIONS of Democrats in red gerrymandered states who work their asses off. (Psst, 90M+ NATIONWIDE didn’t bother to vote period.) +…

This kind of clear, direct explanation of what’s happening is basic journalism and yet it’s surprising to hear it stated so forthrightly in this mealy-mouthed era.
