Kimmel just bailed on his 11 million follower Twitter account and joined Bluesky.

An NPR investigation uncovered 40,000 vets facing foreclosure due to a VA mistake. A rescue program is helping many of them, but others fear being left out if Congress cuts this new lifeline.

“The attack on Columbia is a radical threat to scholarly excellence and to America’s leadership in research,” writes Princeton president Christopher L. Eisgruber. “Universities and their leaders should speak up and litigate forcefully.” theatln.tc/terkcJkl

“George Conway, a conservative lawyer and frequent critic of Mr. Trump, posted on social media, ‘This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first.’”

Weingarten: When they close an office, it is to try and stop people from getting the benefits. When they change a phone system, it is to stop people from getting the benefit.

In just 10 days, TWO vacant House Seats in Florida will be filled. We need your help in this final stretch to reach Gen-Z voters and get people to the polls for Josh Weil and Gay Valimont! Will you chip in $5 to Forward Blue to help us flip these seats? forwardblue.us/10days

My maternal grandmother died in the 1918 flu pandemic. RFK Jr can go fuck himself.

Kaufmann: DOGE claims to have found Social Security loans going to 11 year olds and under. It's a survivor benefit annuity to young children whose parents have passed. That's the problem billionaires without a clue doing a job they don't understand

Say what you want, but this is working. Tesla shares are plummeting, and people can’t offload their Teslas fast enough. The NYC protest today is 🔥 —they’re continuing the effort to urge folks to sell their Teslas and dump stock. The brand is toxic. PS—I got rid of my Tesla in 2024.

Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny. That’s what’s really driving Trump’s attack on education and public knowledge.

#WITAOD @annabower.bsky.social Musks lawyer has said in a court filing that he’s in charge of DOGE 👀

“Elias Law Group will not be deterred from fighting for democracy in court. There will be no negotiation with this White House about the clients we represent or the lawsuits we bring on their behalf."

Good thing you fuckwads are doing away with the Dept of Education!

We are sending people for indefinite detention without trial at a foreign gulag because they have tattoos about soccer teams and about loving their mothers.

24 years later after one of the most TRAGIC days in American history, BILLIONAIRE & Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is trying to help Elon Musk, DOGE, and Donald Trump STEAL our money, OUR Social Security! 😡🤬 www.youtube.com/watch?v=-z5a...

Judge Boasberg: "The government has not been forthcoming with information, but I will get to the bottom of whether they violated my order and what the consequences will be."

Weingarten: If you think this is unprecedented. You’re not crazy. It is. It is. We have never faced the kind of assault on people that has happened in the last 60 plus days.

How is this okay?

An airport, Mount Rushmore and the $100 bill: Inside the GOP effort to venerate Trump while he’s still in office. House Republicans say they’re honoring the sitting president with their unprecedented bills. Historians see something darker. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

Good thing you fuckwads are doing away with the Dept of Education!

Just another reason for Canada to buy the Saab JAS 39 Gripen.

Welp, there goes the US defense industry.

Is this the same guy who was complaining about Joe Biden using an autopen and not knowing what he was signing when he was president just a few days ago?

A "former" major Democratic law firm. Lawyers at Paul Weiss now have a choice. Stay and understand you are now aligned with Trump or leave with your dignity.

I’m not an expert on these things, but the practice of law is regulated at the state level by bar associations and state supreme courts. A federal policy of targeting lawyers adverse to the government, by implication, raises big Tenth Amendment issues. State attorneys general: Take it from there.

I knew Howard Lutnick was GARBAGE when he was laughing at all of Donald Trump's answers at a press conference. Secretary Lutnick and EVERY one of these JUNK DRAWER appointees care about THEMSELVES, and NOT the PEOPLE.🤬

It's been several hours since I first watched this clip of billionaire Howard Lutnick ruminating about Social Security, and I still can't believe it. It's a rub-your-eyes-in-disbelief moment.

Donald Trump’s billionaire Commerce Secretary has financial advice for Americans: 1. Please buy Tesla stock to help poor Elon Musk. 2. Shut up and don’t complain when you don’t get your Social Security check.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

“St. Clair, 26, filed two petitions against Musk last month seeking a court-ordered paternity test and sole custody of the 6-month-old she claims she shares with the Tesla CEO.” In response, Musk “substantially reduced his financial support towards the child.” www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-m...

Great piece by @benrhodes.bsky.social about how Democrats can stop Trump. Key words from Slovenian activist Nika Kovac: "“The thing that is making him powerful now is he’s thinking that nothing can stop him,” Ms. Kovac said. “You need one victory.” " How to get that victory? 1/7

We’ve seen them do it already. Do we really think they won’t do exactly as he says? And yet we pause. We watch court filings and judicial decisions. We are sleepwalking into the dark, quietly and compliantly.

Lesson to @columbiauniversity.bsky.social , Paul Weiss, Judge Beryl Howell, @schumer.senate.gov : Don't surrender to bullies

Trump and DOGE want to turn the federal government into a fire sale—closing offices, firing workers, shuttering critical agencies, and cutting programs that serve working people. @warren.senate.gov and I are demanding answers about Massachusetts federal buildings. www.wcvb.com/article/mass...

U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes: "The cruel irony is that thousands of transgender servicemembers have sacrificed — some risking their lives — to ensure for others the very equal protection rights the Military Ban seeks to deny them."
