Just in case folks miss this due to the block

No comment needed 🤡👑

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we are reminded that visibility is shaped by data. Our research shows that since Jan 20, 2025, 360 federal data collections have removed questions about LGBTQ status. Of those, 338 removed the option for people to select their gender identity. tinyurl.com/SOGIdata

That's right

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video. “It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?” This lady’s response is🔥

While a lot of people argue that the No Kings marches were preaching to the choir, seeing that millions of people across the country are protesting makes opposing Trump increasingly acceptable. Opinions are shifting.

Since the headline is a bit confusing, the NYT is reporting that on the same day we hit the girl's school in Minab, we also sent a missile full of tungsten steel pellets at a girl's volleyball tournament hundreds of miles away in Lamerd. Twenty one dead. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/w...

After Claudia Goldin became the first woman to win a solo Nobel in economics, she got hundreds of invitations. She accepted three. One was advising WNBA players on a labor deal. She helped players land the biggest % raise in US sports history. www.wsj.com/economy/wnba...

If the estimates were right, there were about 9 million people at No Kings rallies today. That would mean this protest was THIRTY TIMES AS LARGE AS THE TEA PARTY PROTEST which we were told, over and over again, was a massively important sign that US politics had shifted dramatically to the right

No Kings

So if the Supreme Court says you can’t count mail in ballots that were mailed before the deadline, what’s to stop them saying kick people in line out of line once the polls close Literally the same thing

Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime. The media should report that.

Hey Gov Newsom, can we please change Cesar Chavez Day to Dolores Huerta Day? #TimesUp

Dolores Huerta's statement on Cesar Chavez: “I am nearly 96 years old, and for the last 60 years have kept a secret because I believed that exposing the truth would hurt the farmworker movement I have spent my entire life fighting for... I can no longer stay silent and must share my own experiences"

What a great day! Thank you @cruzita.bsky.social 🥰 for inviting me

The dementia-ravaged president is increasingly spewing nonsense and acting erratically, with dangerous consequences for the entire world and it seems like that really should be all we're talking about.

Political Science's academic job market having its worst post-Covid year -- almost 20% fewer jobs than at the same point in the previous cycle (which itself was bad!) Data scraped from APSA ejobs pdfs.

You ever write something and there are so many parts you hope people engage with that you can't figure out which ones to quote? I'll do a wee thread on the 3rd, and final, essay from my Red Scares series www.insidehighered.com/opinion/colu...

New on MS NOW: The war with Iran is costing the U.S. an estimated $1 billion a day, according to two congressional sources with knowledge of the matter. Based on that estimate, the U.S. has spent at least $5 billion on the war since it began on Feb. 28.

“Strangely”? That’s who he is.

Trump administration officials acknowledged in closed-door briefings with congressional staff that there was no intelligence suggesting Iran planned to attack US forces first, two people familiar with the matter said reut.rs/46ybyTg

Hegseth: “We didn’t start this war, but under President Trump, we are finishing it.” The truth: We did start this war two days ago. And now, apparently, we're not going to finish it in a way that will make it worth fighting. And we have a constitutional crisis. open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

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

NSF Update (Awards through 2/27/26) Directorates to follow 1/10

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge. They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership. We do not have serious people running our country.

Exclusive: Prior to Iran attacks, CIA assessed Khamenei would be replaced by hardline IRGC elements if killed, sources say reut.rs/4l9SCAs

To paraphrase the late, great Carrie Fisher, things are getting worse faster than we can lower our standards.

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

Impeach

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

historical detail I can't help but bring up: by some accounts, the event that instigated the British soldiers to open fire on Crispus Attacks and the rest of the crowd in the Boston Massacre was a soldier being hit by a snowball

This is clearly blatantly intentional voter suppression and any claim otherwise is completely unserious

I don’t want to hear the handwringing over what Trump or SCOTUS might do next. Take a moment to enjoy the win

Omg SCOTUS struck down the tariffs!

Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement

look at my country man, we’re getting out-No Kings’d by the fuckin’ british

I can see why they tried to suppress this #Colbert interview. #Talarico might just flip the Texas Senate seat youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...
