Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

SCOOP: Trump administration has been evaluating the costs of destroying or disposing of tens of millions of coronavirus tests that would otherwise be provided free to Americans. My story w/ Carolyn Y. Johnson. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk. Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️ thehill.com/media/514849...

"the Department of Veterans Affairs announced the dismissal of more than 1,000 employees who had served for less than two years. That included researchers working on cancer treatment, opioid addiction, prosthetics and burn pit exposure, U.S. Sen. Patty Murray, a Democrat, said Thursday."

So… we shouldn’t count on a refund this year?

Attorneys and advocacy organizations are navigating an increase in federal immigration arrests — and rampant rumors and misinformation.

Set 4,000 years ago in what is now the Canadian arctic, filmmaker Zacharias Kunuk’s ‘Uiksaringitara - Wrong Husband’ premieres at The Berlinale in Berlin this weekend. Story: www.berlinale.de/en/2025/prog...

“The richest man in the world, Elon Musk, is stealing money from you to put in his pocket” has to be the easiest political argument ever www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

“This is a parallel overlaying of authority over the entire structure of the U.S. government.“

Musk killed these people.

Disabled people need you writing and calling and badgering your reps. We do not need replies of "I'm in a red state, there's nothing I can do." There are reports around the country of politicians sweating pressure. One more call can help more than you know.

CEO: UnitedHealth's approval ratings are in the dumps. We must take decisive action. Give me your best ideas. General Counsel: We sue the widows of deceased cancer patients who we denied care to. CEO: I like it. I like it.

the BBC released a documentary about eden today and i urge you and everyone you know to watch it

A threaded list of things I’m “doing” to try to support the birth of a better world. (A reminder for myself as much as anyone as I get activated and am tempted to overextend) I share free and paywalled subscription. writings to help people make meaningful choices in this context

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

“This morning, we won a court order blocking Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, from accessing Americans’ private data. Musk and his DOGE employees must destroy all records they've obtained.“ - NY Attorney General Letitia James

Your faith & energy for this family has made a HUGE difference, providing a tent during displacement + basic necessities for their survival. This is STILL a survival fund so keep it going! re: vetting, I'm in constant contact with Ghadeer & my best friend is collecting.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have cut off funding for half of the health centers that serve 400,000 Virginians, forcing some to close, which could mean up to 200,000 Virginians are suddenly without healthcare www.vpm.org/news/2025-02...

Bob's Burgers Season 15 is the best yet. I saved it for this time of year to help get me through. And now I am sad it's over.

I am writing about what is happening to federal personnel policy. One difficulty is that it's hard to observe and verify what is actually happening. I am particularly interested in information about the employment status of individuals working with/in DOGE. Anonymous tips welcome. Signal: Nbednar.46

I ran @USAID health programs for the last 3 years. Trump’s 90 day Stop Work Order on foreign assistance does serious damage to the world and the US. Examples:🧵

A former top Treasury Dept. Official says the payment records are so sensitive they are always off limits for political officials to protect Americans’ privacy. The breech is enormous.

I know it may not seem like much at this point. But it's really beyond time to delete your Twitter account. And your Meta accounts. Beyond everything else, I don't see any reason not to believe that any info they collect on you will be delivered directly to the government.

A friend in the neighborhood just sent me a picture from in front of Schumer’s building. (I’d join them if I didn’t have a soup to attend to right now!!)

@schumer.senate.gov Does Elon Musk have control over my social security number, Federal income tax information etc....? I need an immediate response since you are unfortunately my Senator.

This is incredibly spot on, and also terrifying
