U.S. Rep. Dan Newhouse, one of two Republicans representing Washington state in Congress, will not run for reelection next year. via @washingtonstatestandard.com

The only people missing from this are Jonathan Turley, Mike Lindell and the rest of the characters from the the Mos Eisley Cantina.

The controversial change reflects wider federal actions taken since U.S. President Donald Trump assumed office in January 2025 to scale back climate science visibility on government platforms.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families. The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

Peter F Hamilton is one of my favourite hard #SF space opera writers, so Exodus, first in a new duology, had to be on my top new paperbacks of the year roundup! Read for epic galactic arcs, big speculative ideas, and prose that keeps you hooked 🚀 🪐📚💙 #SFF

Our interstellar visitor, comet 3I/Atlas has been getting lots of press. After several unsuccessful attempts, the skies cooperated at 4:00 AM today and I got a pic of it. Will be closest to Earth on Dec 19th, and visible with a small scope in dark skies. Click ALT for more info #astronomy

Live laugh lie‼️😂😂

It's breaking us‼️ There's no reprieve‼️ No day without horror, in real time‼️ No place is safe‼️😢

Trump celebrated the double-homicide of two well known seniors that he didn't like while delaying a report showing he raped children while bombing innocent fishermen, while kidnapping people of color off the streets and sending them to God knows where. What's not to love about America, right now🙄

Human beings are NOT aliens. JD Vance is NOT a Christian. Everything he spews is complete and utter BULLSHIT.

BREAKING: The U.S. Coast Guard has quietly enacted a policy downgrading swastikas and nooses from hate symbols to “potentially divisive.” The manual is now in effect, despite public outrage and warnings after the draft was revealed last month. (Washington Post)

🚨 #GVerse #BreakinNews Pam Bondi PANICS after DOJ whistleblower Ryan Crosswell - who QUIT when #Shit4Brain’s DOJ tried to shut down prosecutions for his allies - - says he’s running for Congress to NOT ONLY expose her corruption in the record, but to ALSO hold her accountable. This is huge. 🔥

The hive under the tea party rock was a tad bit more cavernous than conservatives understood.

November jobless rates hit a 4-year high. So much winning.

It literally just boils down to feeling entitled to extra attention and social standing. That's it. The dude validates their excuses that they aren't mediocre because (insert x group here) is lower than them.

We are failing our kids

This is their worst nightmare..unmasking for the world to see.

You have the right to record ICE. You have the right to film any operation happening in public as long as you do not interfere or impede it. Your camera is proof, but keep a safe distance. KEEP RECORDING.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

If this administration mentions your name, learn the bus routes ... and avoid them.

Why every era ruled by the morbidly rich ends the same way: corruption, collapse, and ordinary people paying the bill.... hartmannreport.com/p/how-many-t...

The ACLU and Judge Young get it

so, the script is preempted by further script, noting that the previous script was just a script pretending to be news

I don’t think it’s that crazy that Marjorie Taylor Greene would resign and join Cameo like George Santos. What’s crazy is that people like her ever get elected. Looking forward to her being outed as the Jan. 6 pipe bomber and thrown in prison.

$25 million isn’t enough‼️

Racial profiling is all they do. Lawless.

This is so cool! I had an amazing undergraduate student right after I started my job, and his research project included looking at the 1842 eruption. We concluded it was not just a phreatic event, but a bit more exciting. I wish this letter had been available then. 🌋⚒️🧪

This perfectly encapsulates the "performative neutrality" of which @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social and I accuse the New York Times--with respect to both climate and vaccines--in #ScienceUnderSiege. In fact, it goes beyond that, engaging in outright antiscience pandering:

When a faint, fast-moving speck named 3I/ATLAS slipped into view earlier this year, it carried more than a whiff of cosmic intrigue. Only two other confirmed interstellar objects have ever wandered through our Solar System, and both left scientists with more questions than answers. 🧪 🔭 👩‍🔬

Shame on Harvard‼️

WATCH — @thejaampod.bsky.social : “ICE drove past and sprayed mace into the car, into a one year old baby’s face… A BABY just got pepper sprayed. They should be arrested and prosecuted.”

Terrific

My legal team will be in federal court in North Carolina today fighting against the state's unconstitutional redrawn congressional map. Before you listen to those in the GOP who say we can't win, ask Texas how that worked out for them.

“The American government own America.” “Did you purchase it, trade it?”

Impressionable Impressionism?

Yeah, as if the working class even had a whole cookie in 2025.

Just left the latest hearing in Jim Comey's criminal case. It did not go well for DOJ The magistrate judge scolded them for an "indict first, investigate second" posture and ordered them to turn over reams of material — including all grand jury info — to Comey's team Details TK

This coming from the man who’s literally pushing red states to gerrymander Democrats into oblivion so he doesn’t get demolished at midterms. Prop 50 is merely self-defense.

On the ballot today: -NYC: Mayor -Minneapolis: Mayor -VA: Governor, Lt. Governor, AG, and state House -NJ: Governor -PA: State Supreme Court -GA: Public Service Commission -TX: TX-18 U.S. House -CA: Prop 50 This is a reminder of how crucial it is to vote up AND down the ballot.

I hate that this headline makes sense to me

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to inhale the intoxicating aroma of vintage books in a quaint bookstore on a cobblestone side street in Edinburgh during a pouring rain?

AMERICA TAKE NOTES‼️
