As the Artemis II mission approached lunar flyby on Monday, the crew shared an emotional moment when they called down to mission control to request that a previously unnamed moon crater be dedicated to Carroll, the late wife of the mission commander, Reid Wiseman. nyti.ms/4e6nVKO

#NoKings in Providence, RI. Chilly, but the huge turnout was amazing!

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

I didn't understand why the Cracker Barrel thing is woke. It's so dumb. Then remembered that Trump is all over the Epstein files and the entire Republican party, and all of their pundits, are actively covering it up. Anyway, now I get it.

25% tax on Apple products while singling out the CEO by name for retribution, 50% tax on European goods, expulsion of foreign students, bill passed with most debt in history, while hosting a dinner for people who gave you $300+ million. All in the last 24 hours. The Golden Age.

Huge crowds yesterday!!

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

The #HandsOff march in Providence, RI was incredible! Thousands of people who wanted their voices heard: no kings, no unelected chainsaw-wielding destroyers of democracy, no fascism, no not-sees, no more!

Protest changes the permission structure. It says fascists will not be allowed to proceed unencumbered. And if you didn't think there was anything to be done, a protest shows you many think otherwise.

This is a grave and sobering admission: they are not pursuing the “WELL ACTUALLY he broke the law during protests,” they are bragging that they are deporting people for protected speech.

The institutions of the American economy depend on the institutions of American democracy; rule of law, consistent regulation, stability, and all the rest. That’s what’s being destroyed and that’s what risks the *entire economy. Saying that out loud shouldn’t (and can’t) be a risk

Well... the State of the DisUnion will begin, shortly. I'm gonna be in attendance 😳😏. DO NOT WATCH!

Life in 2025...

This is the most delicious, chef's kiss thing I've ever seen. And I want to shake this woman's hand, take her out for a beer, and be her BFF. National treasure, this one!

Finally!
