The X-men premise of governments hunting down the cause of mutations and persecuting mutants has always been pertinent among Queer and minority and disabled communities. I’m feeling it acutely as an #autistic person, just now. www.axios.com/2025/04/28/r...

WTF? FBI agents arrested a Milwaukee county judge on Friday, accusing her of shielding an immigrant from federal authorities. The allegation? That Judge Hannah Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away from” someone they were pursuing, according to a now-deleted post by Mr. Patel.

Carrots are harvested year-round in Santa Maria. During the colder months, farm workers typically work 4 to 5 hours a day. Now that peak season has begun, they’re working 40+ hours a week. They earn CA min wage of $16.50/hr & don't get any benefits. #WeFeedYou

#ResistanceUnited #Voices4Victory The OMB's draft budget for NASA includes drastic cuts and the elimination of projects such as the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, which is being developed on schedule and within budget. Cutting it would waste that investment. skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-ne...

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts. From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

That's a big data gap across the Rocky Mountains and Northern/Central Great Plains. Especially upstream of potential severe weather today across Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. More of this to come as we head into peak severe weather season...

Just spoke with my CDC sources. They were in tears. Budgets cut. RFJK has ordered them not to publicize bird flu symptoms in exposed workers. Not to test them. Not to speak. They know people are getting sick. And they’re being forced to stay silent. This is not just a cover-up. It's cruelty.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

You know the only reason he got out so fast was a reporter live posted about this for hours. And, a large amount of public pressure. Every time someone gets grabbed, there has to be a robust public response immediately.

As someone who experienced threats and harassment from armed extremists for over a decade, I have empathy for anyone who feels afraid of retaliation for free speech. But at the end of the day, we all must make a choice: back down or double down.
