"Meetings are held, emails are sent, phone calls are made, and something like 520,000 children die of malnutrition, diarrhea, tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV." prospect.org/2026/05/22/w...

For the second time we know of, Kash Patel's FBI got a warning about a dangerous Nazi sympathizer (the other is the Evergreen shooter) but did not prevent an attack. This time 3 people were murdered. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/21/u...

"Abundance is a grassroots movement!" The grass roots in question:

I think Democrats like Cory Booker should take a hard look in the mirror and consider why Jeff Bezos loves their tax cut proposals so much. Billionaires would love to see a weak state with a gutted fiscal capacity.

Trump’s “weaponization fund” and ban on future IRS audits is his latest impeachable offense—using the machinery of government and billions in taxpayer dollars to reward allies, pay off insurrectionists, and shield himself, his family, and associates from accountability. Impeach now.

As Trump's approval ratings continue to plummet, he has doubled down on enriching of his core constituents: insurrectionists and AI industrialists. From our @kjboyle.bsky.social:

Despite being the nerve center of Trump 2.0, OMB Director Russell Vought continues to fly under the radar. Vought’s lack of notoriety reflects a failure by Democrats to consistently and effectively communicate to the public how he is orchestrating the Trump regime’s assault on the common good. 🧵⬇️

Wemby what the fuck 😂

As written, the proposed rule only repeals a November 2036 deadline for employers to replace or retrofit old ladders, but it leaves the door open for a full roll back. In its justification, OSHA takes the industry's numbers as face value without any real consideration of worker safety.

Lori Chavez-DeRemer became Labor Secretary with bipartisan support and supposed pro-worker ideals, but her DOL record shows the folly of expecting good things from Trump appointees. From slashing capacity to gutting safety protections, Chavez-DeRemer carried out Trump's decidedly anti-labor agenda.

Alito should recuse from Suncor v. Boulder, along with the parallel cases, as he has before. What I told @nbcnews.com: “The oil company petitioners in these cases have been explicit in court filings that they view the cases as linked; there is no reason for Justice Alito to view them otherwise."

Mystery: Interior Sec. Doug Burgum said he doesn't know who created Freedom250 and put it in his department. www.motherjones.com/politics/202... “I’m not aware of the final decision maker on Freedom250." Still, he's giving them millions of dollars Congress appropriated for a different org.

BURGUM: When the sun goes down, solar produces zero electricity HUFFMAN: I want to enter into the record this amazing new technology that apparently the secretary is unaware of -- it's a battery

Trump's OSHA is proposing to remove a rule requiring employers to provide personal fall arrest systems—basically harnesses with with straps to anchors—to workers on ladders above 24 feet. They proposed the repeal after a bunch of oil, gas, and chemical industry trade groups asked them too.

Checks out

Would be nice to have depth pieces like Landry Shamet. Or Mikal Bridges…or Jared McCain…Julian Champagnie…Isaiah Joe..

You do not hate the DOGE people enough. Boys with toys breaking things they were too arrogant and lazy to understand.

What a way to cap off a horrible night from Risto

Dumb penalty after dumb penalty. You just can’t win hockey games like this.

Unbelievable how bad this PP is

The 2020 primary never ended

FLYERS ARE ALIVE

This means that hundreds, if not thousands of labs all over the country will close. Tens of thousands of jobs will be lost. This is in defiance of Congress's will and in defiance of good stewardship of the US economy. This is entirely because Russ Vought hates science

Vibe rn

A Reason mag writer thinks the downfall of Spirit Airlines is an “enormous L” for Lina Khan who had … nothing to do with blocking the Jet Blue merger. The DOJ oversees airline mergers! Even libertarian political “reporters” should know basic facts.

Buying early stock in this one. Zay might have a hit

Philly undefeated since

Game 7. Saturday.

Pretty sure Noah Eagle ended the broadcast saying “It always had to be this way, Sixers Celtics game 7!” Brother I would’ve picked the Celtics in 3 if I could

Great angle of Cam York's goal. Love the Dan Vladar reaction

Cam York gets the OT winner from the point, hucks his stick into the crowd. Philly wins the game and the series

Flyers are far too unselfish. Put the puck on net!

Just saw a Cyber truck with a thin blue line bumper sticker and the license plate MAD MAX 🤢

The story here is that Congress rejected Trump’s proposal to slash funding for the National Science Foundation, but Trump is gutting the agency anyway. The by-now classic Russ Vought play of treating Congress as an irrelevancy. www.insidehighered.com/news/governm...

Vought needs to be in the first rank of the dock at The Tribunal, along with Elon Musk

We’re really gunna lose the game on this nonsense smh

how would this protect him off-campus

Can’t imagine Emil Andrae will be starting game 6

Refs are just letting Mantha do whatever he wants

I've said it before, I'll say it again: this power play will be the death of this Flyers team. They just can't rely on it even a little bit.

Flyers have put too much on Vladar’s shoulders but he’s really not sharp tonight

embellishment!

Check out my latest for @progressivereform.bsky.social: Russell Vought is the most dangerous person in the Trump administration. His testimony before Congress last week reveals the damage he's doing. progressivereform.org/cpr-blog/we-...

Flyers win but I forgot my iPad at work so phone art time!!! #ignitetheorange

I still can’t believe Daryl Morey’s one deadline move was to trade away our best 3 point shooter for peanuts

all Owen Tippett did was embarrass the entire Penguins line on that shorty

The Flyers have won the game where the Penguins got the benefit of every single call, with the commissioner in attendance, and now Pittsburgh has resorted to blatant cheap shots. Gutless display.

Fantastic play from Owen Tippett sets up Garnet Hathaway for a shorthanded tap in to make it 2-0

Owen Tippett my goodness
