A French University is funding a Safe Place For Science program meant to recruit scientists who cannot continue their work in the US. www.univ-amu.fr/fr/public/a...

Here's an update from Congress on the fight to protect abortion access across the country. Today, @smith.senate.gov and I reintroduced the Stop Comstock Act. Right wing strategists have been foaming at the mouth for years to abuse antiquated laws to take women back to the 1800s.

Ouch. Republican Representative Tom Barrett held a tele-town hall with his constituents in his swing district in Michigan on Monday and ran a survey asking if they support DOGE. 70% of the participants said they do not.

Moving a detainee around to evade judicial review is classic authoritarian behavior.

I appreciate the late discovery of a spine by @schumer.senate.gov Now be prepared to go even harder in the future - this is the first step, but there are a lot more to take

Papers worldwide condemn Trump, in addition Trump has lost the Daily Mail. When you lose the Daily Mail you are a global pariah. “Trump on Friday presided over one of the greatest diplomatic disasters in modern history.” "A spectacle to horrify the world"

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science. Entire NIH departments will have no leaders. World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators. Is this what they want? Chaos? Destruction?

“Having a librarian in a library is good.” THANK YOU, Abbott Elementary. Thank you, also, for the seemingly simple scene of how beloved it is to hear a book be read aloud 💚

Do you like snakes? Well I love this one! I hope you do too Baby snake Camilla #snake #art #miniature

This is Nazi shit

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

It must suck to attend a WH Press briefing while AP is locked out and most of the questions go to right-wing podcasters and internet channels while you sit there and get ignored. I’d rather be AP taking a principled stand than whatever that is.

Macron, with Trump scowling next to him, says "the aggressor is Russia"

Russia invaded the sovereign nation of Ukraine. Vladimir Putin is the aggressor. I’m not going to let Trump rewrite history.

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire." America is under attack right now.

BERLIN — Friedrich Merz did not even wait for the final results in Germany's election before delivering what could well be a defining verdict on U.S. President Donald Trump, consigning Europe's 80-year alliance with the United States to the past. @politico.com 🇩🇪 www.politico.eu/article/frie...

Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds. Gov Mills: See you in court

I’m furious with Republicans who betray this country without consequence. 🤬 I refuse to stay silent while they grovel before Trump and sell out everything America stands for. So I’m picking up the phone. I’m calling them directly. And I’m not holding back. 1/4

The second rule of Fight Club is "you do not talk about Fight Club."

Ukraine is fighting for its life. Watch my film Mr. Jones that provides haunting historical context of Russia's genocide of Ukraine, aided by Western corruption in 1933, much like today. It's available on streaming, Kanopy, try your local library www.nytimes.com/2020/06/18/m...

It would be far less time-consuming to just document when he tells the truth. shorturl.at/tohgb

Um...Is he okay?

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Excuse us… Trump. You have no right. STAY TUNED FOR OUR NEXT DAY OF ACTION. #nokings #50501movement #politicalrevolution @polrev.bsky.social

The resistance will bring down Musk and Trump. Congress, wake up before your power is gone. The GOP begging Trump to release money to their states is pathetic—stand up to this tyranny. Congress controls the purse strings.

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

ZELENSKYY: The risk that Russia will occupy Europe is 100 percent WELKER: If the US pulls out of NATO, Russia will occupy Europe? ZELENSKYY: Yes

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

These absolute morons are going to destroy the United States. If you’re in favor of the US leaving NATO, you either don’t want the US to succeed, or you don’t know wtf NATO does. Worth noting that Mike Lee voted to expand NATO in 2022.

Britain said it was ready to send peacekeeping troops to back up any Ukraine peace deal as European leaders gathered on Monday to agree a unified strategy, while Russian and US officials prepared to meet for their own talks to try to end the conflict www.reuters.com/world/europe...

A new North Dakota bill would require stores to pull any book with any "material harmful to minors" from the shelves. For those in the cheap seats, that effectively means ANY mention of sex, sexuality or gender. A bookseller could be arrested for displaying 1984. www.inforum.com/opinion/colu...

Welcome to Finding Out, Part 628: www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

A reminder. The evisceration of US health, environment, national security, services, and more isn't all on Trump and Musk. It's on every single Republican senator and representative. Hold them accountable.

WEMPLE: “.. Just as no one would have supposed .. that a wire service would be sidelined over compliance with ‘Gulf of America,’ how far off is the day when outlets must heed the renaming of the White House to ‘the Trump Mansion’?” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
