Oh boy! Looks like the Trump regime realizes they are on the losing end of taking on Harvard, and are now seeking to blame a junior level person for sending a letter of demands last Friday. Very typical of Trump's strategy when his losing - it was the coffee boy. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/b...

I think I see a metaphor here: the ball is the global economy, the tortoise represents liberal democracies, and the erratic pup is Trump.

Ukraine is beating Russia—sinking their fleet without a navy, killing 800,000+ invaders, and holding the line for 3 years. Donald Trump wants to save Putin. He won’t say Russia is the aggressor. Let’s be clear: there’d be a cease-fire if Russia…stopped. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/ukraine-is...

Just a reminder that Trump/DOJ continuing to let Abrego Garcia sit in CECOT is a crime. Deprivation of rights under color of law is a crime. Was it an "error" at first? Maybe. But once they were aware of the error, and ordered by a judge to return him, and then refusing, it's willful 1/

In Canada, all prisoners have had the right to vote since 2002, thanks to the long and hard advocacy of Rick Sauvé, a former inmate. Voting is a right of everyone in a democracy, and in Canada we try to make it as easy and accessible as possible.

On this day in 1906: the M 7.9 San Francisco Earthquake. I get chills every time I see this ShakeMap. Publicly funded science is how we learn about quakes in CA and beyond, and how we prepare for future ones. Current federal attacks on science are an abandonment of communities facing these hazards:

I think what’s most striking about the last few months is how rarely anyone in the GOP applies this simple test. A lot of checks and balances rely on this kind of worrying about precedent but it’s now totally absent, as if they don’t think they’ll ever be out of power again.

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism. It’s disgusting and dangerous. If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign. Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness. To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

For eff's sake! Stop with you folksy "y'alls" and, instead, do something noteworthy. All of you richer-than-rich women now need to take your photo ops to El Salvador and demand justice for Juan Garcia Abrego, and all those others, too. Do something worthwhile, or fade away from sight. Parasites.

Can’t stop thinking about the fact that this Nazi POS Musk made all of his money off the backs of hard working Dems and Gov subsidies. He’s now abandoned the people that made him rich, took away subsidies and is trying to take away social services for all of those that enriched him. This has to end.
