Since hearing that he’s in the Epstein files, Trump has: - Fired the prosecutor that put Ghislane Maxwell in jail - Had his former personal attorney interview her in prison - Had his allies begin to float the idea of pardoning her - Blocked release of the files That’s incredibly sketchy.

We have such a serious data privacy and surveillance problem.

Oxbow apparently makes pizza and it's pretty goddamn good

Thinking of Iranians in the US. Also anyone vaguely brown is going to be labeled as Iranian.

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

You can't teargas people into loving your policies

“At the largest rally in Seattle, over 70,000 people flooded the streets shoulder-to-shoulder, marching en masse from Capitol Hill to Seattle Center — making it one of the largest protests in the city’s history. “ SEATTLE SHOWS UP FOR DEMOCRACY! @seattletimes #NoKings #Seattle

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Stephen Miller is also a ghoul who wants to make our society a white ethnostate where the rich can exploit us all. I’m a journalist and researcher who’s gone toe-to-toe with guys like him and Elon Musk. Support my grassroots campaign by chipping in $8 here: secure.actblue.com/donate/abu-b...

Trump’s provocations have turned Angelenos into pedestrians

How is this not a war crime? How this not a green light for Iran to target Israeli or U.S. civilian scientists in return?

LA melts them. 🔥 Seattle freezes them. 🥶 #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork

Just to recap, Trump has taken the extraordinary step of federalizing 2000 member of the California National Guard — over the objections of the state’s governor — in response to a protest that currently involves A FEW DOZEN PEOPLE AT A HOME DEPOT

(Guy who isn’t on the street or in the organizations mobilizing) you guys should be peaceful instead

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

Randomly remembered this gem by @robdenbleyker.com

For those of you who knew Victoria Brownworth on Twitter, she passed away from cancer yesterday. She was a fearless journalist who reported on AIDS in the 80s (when Reagan was ignoring it), lifted up the LGBTQ community, & rooted out corruption. Her wife, Maddy Gold, died of cancer in 2022.

being an industry lobbyist must be so cool. rolling up to a senator’s office with a wheelbarrow full of cash for their “election campaign” and presenting a colorful single slide powerpoint with a 45 degree line graph indicating that a vote for the Scamming Our Grandmas Act = more wheelbarrows

The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.

In Chicago, in 21 months, the AI-powered gunshot detection technology ShotSpotter generated more than 40,000 “dead-end police deployments” 89% of ShotSpotter deployments resulted in no gun-related crime But the tool did cause the fatal police shooting of 13-year-old Adam Toledo.

it worries me when the narrative about trump is that “it’s dumbasses that don’t know what they’re doing”. they know exactly what they’re doing. peter thiel is a close ally of trump and owns JD vance. peter thiel is a believer in curtis yarvin thought, which is 100% in line with what’s happening

If you supported a 10 year old American child with brain cancer, on her way to medical treatment, being deported because her parents are undocumented (but have no criminal records), then you’re a horrific person and I’m not sure how you sleep at night.

“There are 13 million legal foreign residents (green card holders) in the US. If the administration can deport Khalil, it means those 13 million people must live in fear if they dare speak up or publish something that runs afoul of government views.” journalism.columbia.edu/news/cjs-fac...

mRNA vaccines are the biggest breakthrough in disease prevention and treatment in decades. We're curing *cancer* with mRNA vaccines. To eliminate research in this field, at this moment, is fall-of-the-empire-grade stuff.

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

RFK Jr. Vows To Make Measles Deaths So Common They Won’t Be Upsetting Anymore

I still don’t understand why Democrats would negotiate a budget when the Trump administration claims unilateral authority to cancel any spending it dislikes. As long as congressional Republicans endorse that position, they are not legitimate negotiation partners! An agreement with them has no value!

WHAT IS HAPPENING

Ads on Twitter continue being the worst lmao

Wow did you know that their vans just do that? That's a thing they can do

10% of NASA’s workforce has been laid off—guess that’ll be a boost for SpaceX.

The constitution has been thrown in the gutter and I'm still getting fundraising emails from Democrats that are written in the "voice" of my elected representative's dog.

Not true. I'll give you some examples of when styles crossed over from womenswear to menswear, and how men have worn straight-up womenswear or just feminine styles in cool ways. 🧵
