BREAKING: A federal judge says the termination of NIH grants for research on diversity-related topics by President Trump's administration was “void and illegal,” and accused the government of discriminating against racial minorities and LGBT people.

“What a stupid question?” Is that how professionals interact with Journalists in America?

Not too long ago, Republicans believed in the rule of law, limiting the power of government, and protecting individual liberty, Peter Wehner writes. Then came Donald Trump. https://theatln.tc/JIM7oXYh

Wisconsin’s forests and our forestry industry play a critical role in our Wisconsin way of life—and our economic success.

I'm urging the Trump Administration to prevent any federal funding and staffing cuts that will negatively impact this crucial Wisconsin industry. ⬇️

Excellent article from America magazine about the ongoing leadership roles women have played in Catholic history. It’s time to let women lead again. www.americamagazine.org/faith/2025/0...

🔥🔥🔥 @raskin.house.gov is on fire! Powerful speech about the Jan 6th insurrection, & the unconstitutional charges brought by F47's DOJ's Alina Habba against Congresswoman @replamonica.bsky.social. Thank you Congressman. It helps to know & hear you fighting for us. 🙏🔵💪 www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGk_...

could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

There is nothing clever or funny about this image. We just buried our beloved Pope Francis and the cardinals are about to enter a solemn conclave to elect a new successor of St. Peter. Do not mock us. @ncronline.bsky.social

Excellent analysis of what younger audiences are looking for in news delivery. Helpful for both journalists and PR practitioners.

Fascinating organization! Great to see people standing up for an important cause: gopforukraine.com

This is a widely inaccurate & dangerous mischaracterization. The vaccine was developed in fetal cells obtained from two elective abortions in the early 1960s. There is not abortion debris floating around in the vaccine. And the Vatican has okayed its use. RFK Jr. is again spreading disinformation.

The largest investors in Donald Trump’s crypto coin have been promised a private audience with the president. The arrangement could put Trump at odds with the Constitution and add fuel to calls for his impeachment, experts say. www.wired.com/story/trumps...

To simplify: What really happened with #HannahDugan

NEW damning details on Pete Hegseth: Minutes before U.S. jets hit Yemen, Gen. Kurilla sent strike intel through a secure gov system. Hegseth turned around and dropped it in at least two Signal chats—on his personal phone. Jet timing. Target locations. And he still has the job.

Proud of Wisconsin's role in establishing Earth Day.

I found this rating of podcasts very informative, especially as politicians and others turn to podcasts instead of traditional news media to convey information.

Many Americans worry freedom of speech is fading, while others feel empowered to say what they want. NPR's Morning Edition explores this dynamic in a new series, "The State of the First Amendment."

We can only hope!

Environmental groups have decried Trump’s latest attempt to circumvent endangered species laws that shield about 400 species in national forests, including grizzly bears, spotted owls and wild salmon.

Wonder what the VP says about this as a staunch Catholic? www.americamagazine.org/politics-soc...

After years of yelling that the “Russia hoax” was a witch hunt, Trump is now openly colluding with Vladimir Putin in both narrative and action.

There are 2 sides of the mask debate. Be on the science based one if you would like to avoid chronic illness and spreading illness. Also good for flu, RSV, Pneumonia that most has been suffering with.

If you drive in winter, the most pro-social thing you can do is just have patience. Slow down. Wait for pedestrians. Wait for cyclists. Park farther away and walk if you need to in order to keep bike lanes and bus stops and crosswalks clear. You’re in a mobile living room, you’ll be fine.
