The Russ Vought hearing is starting now. It's the first time Vought has testified before Congress since his confirmation hearings, so it's the first time Congress will be able to question him about the onslaught of illegal budgetary actions he has undertaken. I'll be posting in this thread.

i firmly believe that kennedy wants preventable diseases to rip through american communities since, in his warped mind, those who survive without vaccines will have proven themselves “healthy.”

I want to be clear that a load bearing pillar of fighting fascism is exactly this

Wild conflicts of interest: “Tucked in the 2026 Farm Bill is a provision to reimburse 🧑‍🌾 90% of adopting AI & precision ag tech… standards set by the industry… Trojan horse for big tech to take advantage of farmers/wrest control of the food system…” fortune.com/2026/03/14/f...

Shocking. 😒 FCC Chair Brendan Carr said news broadcasters coverage of Iran war could impact their license renewal. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Again, we ask: Why? www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

We spoke to Black women who started the Target boycott & who sustained it for a yr+. They'll likely never go back. Teacher Laverne Mickens put it like this: “[Black women] will say if & when it’s over. And I can tell you right now: That will be the 15th of never ever.” 19thnews.org/2026/03/targ...

Upside down, by the ankles, and then treat him like a piñata.

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

The level of rage I have towards the New York Times that enabled this while blaming us for it is indescribable.

An old comic style of a woman looking out her window at a city skyline. The bubble says, “What a stupid time to be alive.”

Whoopsy… #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

Insanity. They are laughing at us.

The Department of Homeland Security has had to correct information provided to at least five states after its SAVE voter tool misidentified some voters as noncitizens, according to correspondence between state and federal officials. With @texastribune.org

continue to think that if instead of "raw milk" we called it "doodoo milk" people would understand the risk proposition

A new statement from Epstein survivors: "Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous."

1. Huge good news to light up your day. Every year, EITM launches the trans girl scout cookie list. As of today, we have hit a new record. Scouts on the list have sold 71,000 cookies and growing. www.erininthemorning.com/p/trans-girl...

Yes cabbage is a recession food but also as a gardener I love growing cabbage. Last season my biggest was nearly 10lbs

They keep pushing meat but have you seen the price of a steak? Like every time I grocery shop I don’t understand how folks with kids are doing it

“Lifeless… foam around his mouth. Nobody wants to see their kids like that.” ICE attacked a family trying to LEAVE the besieged neighborhood and hospitalized a 6 month old baby that couldn’t breathe.

3 pieces were accepted into a show. Shipped them in 2 boxes. Show opens. One box was returned but the gallery never mentions they didn’t receive all the work. Reminding me why I stopped applying to open calls. So far I’ve spent over 100$ in application fees in 2 months. Plus shipping costs of 130$

Recently I saw a job listing for picking up and processing compost and exhibition director…guess which one pays more…

This is a vetted fundraiser for the family of Renee Good, the woman who was killed by ICE in Minneapolis. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Who agrees? ✋

We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Next they'll be rewriting textbooks to say Japanese American internment camps were delightful summer resorts.

It’s not actually about the right to opt out, but making it harder for the rest of us to get vaccinated. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/w...

I’m not upset if someone on SNAP wants to buy chips. There are very wealthy people in this country who profit off Americans who have cancer. That does upset me.

kennedy is going to kill a lot of people

Tending is a love letter to rural queers and our relationship to land. Ceramic vessels by Caitlin Rose Sweet and video art by Caitlin Rose Sweet and Andre Azevedo Sweet. Save the date for the screening Sept 27 at Shadow Walls in Purling Ny. Begins at dusk

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

1. Now they are going after adult recreational leagues. AG Ken Paxton is attempting to use consumer protection laws to argue that even allowing a trans person to compete in a rec league is engaging in "deceptive practices." This could be a horrible precedent. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The new cottage guests are from Philly. Within moments of meeting the dude exclaimed “I love shitting in that shack!” And when I explained how I use the composted material he was like “happy to fertilize!”

Nice to see Cuomo finally being a team player and campaigning for Zohran

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41. Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.
