DHS deported a US citizen to Mexico. Brian Morales is 25 years old who was born in Denver. Pulled over in Texas with his construction crew. Didn’t have his ID on him and told officers he could get his birth certificate, Social Security card, and medical records from home.

first in my bloodline to see someone get excommunicated by a community note

Child care that ends at 3 p.m. doesn't work for many working families. So we're changing it. This fall, our 2-K program will pilot year-round care for 2-year-olds, with a full 10-hour day from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Because truly "universal" child care matches the reality of working people's lives.

ICE agents shot another driver -- on Tues. He had just asked to call his wife. They shot him six times. One bullet his jaw. Now he can't speak and has been mostly unconscious. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/09/u...

Keep in mind that everywhere ICE is, your local police have failed you, and abandoned their oath to serve and protect. Zero Ice officers have been arrested. They assault, the kidnap, they kill, and they all walk free. Your local police treat ICE as above the law. The betrayal of duty is staggering.

this is not surprising to me and the question is will this accumulating body of evidence change anything futurism.com/artificial-i...

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

This is why we need impartial investigations. Trump’s left hand cannot investigate his right hand. www.cnn.com/2026/04/06/u...

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

This might be the largest party lead I've ever seen among the double haters www.cnn.com/2026/04/03/p...

The Western US at the FO stage of FAFO... 😬 "‘On a whole other level’: rapid snow melt-off in American west stuns scientists. Experts say brutal March heat has left critical snowpack at record-low levels – and key basins in uncharted territory." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

these are exactly the stakes! embracing trump’s view would be embracing the cramped vision of freedom and belonging that we fought a civil war to banish to the ash heap of history

Get me off this hellish rock and send me to Planet Dank

Accountability brings consequences. And consequences are the only language corruption understands. Money and political power do not outrank the Constitution. They just need a wake up call and it’s coming at the midterms.👇

I know it's april fools day but I can't emphasize enough how much I need everybody to not fuck around today

(Reuters) -- Italy has denied permission for U.S. military aircraft to land at the Sigonella ​air base in Sicily before flying to ‌the Middle East, a source close to the matter said @reuters.com

What does it say about a Florida state government, supposedly governing for the people, when said state government is suing/will sue the NFL to stop interviewing minorities. Not hire, interview. This is how comically desperate these fools are now.

TMZ executive producer Harvey Levin told NOTUS they now have a producer and a photographer on Capitol Hill “TMZ has covered politics for years, but several months ago we decided to amp up our presence and our voice”

Hey Asia Hightower's @puffballove.bsky.social cool paper analyzing 1000s of leaf shapes in published in #AppsPlantSci doi.org/10.1002/aps3...

Amid the other consternating news this one has received rather little attention: catastrophic flooding in Hawaiʻi and the "imminent" threat of a dam failure in northern Oahu, apparently since eased. www.usatoday.com/story/news/w...

Dems need to be on every news channel saying this. Everyday. All day.

This cartoon is from 2007. What does that tell us?

In the least surprising story of the day... (And don't come at me with "There are bad people in the north too." No shit. But I've never had as many unpleasant encounters with authorities as I've had in Mississippi, and I've had Houston cops, LAPD, and Texas Rangers pull guns on me.)

McGovern: He’s doing nothing to make healthcare more accessible. They say we don’t have the money—but we have a billion dollars a day to blow on this crazy war. I don’t think he gives a shit about the American people. Gas prices are skyrocketing, and he’s golfing.

Hey was flooding in Hawaii on any of the Sunday morning news shows?

“The Phoenix Police Department will not discipline any officers for their roles in a massive city scandal where officials invented a fake gang and then falsely charged protesters as members back in 2020”

(Reuters) - Cuba's national electric grid collapsed ​on Saturday, the ‌country's grid operator said, leaving around ​10 million ​people without power amid ⁠a U.S.-imposed ​oil blockade that ​has crippled the island's already obsolete generation system.

There has been virtually ZERO National news coverage of the unprecedented “non hurricane” that’s been storming our islands for over a week! Parts of Maui & Oahu are under still-running red water. Streets have crumbled & fallen into sink holes. We have another 3-4 days before it MAY be over. YOUTUBE

This is the only thing you need to know. Democrats want to open TSA. Republicans are refusing because they want to attach ICE funding. That’s why there are long lines. ICE.

I’m starting to do the thing I did during the dark days of the pandemic which is to watch nothing and just read one book after another. No streaming or TV. Just reading. It is much more immersive and escapist for me than watching something. No clue why. For most people it’s the opposite. #BookSky

An oil tanker anchored off the coast of the United Arab Emirates was struck by a projectile on Tuesday as Iran carried out renewed missile and drone strikes across the Gulf region.

Starmer: "We will not be drawn into the wider war ... we cannot allow the war in the Gulf to turn into a windfall for Putin"

Viewers noticed Ryan Coogler appears to have a guitar and treble clef braided in his hair at the #Oscars

Michael B. Jordan should get two of them lil Oscars trophies. One for each brother

FYI: Utilities in most states are big (often publicly traded) companies. So this looks like corporate money in politics tomfoolery. I wrote about this in my book 📖 Corporatocracy. 👀☀️💰🗳️⚖️👇🏾

Everyone should do this!

i am genuinely astonished by how this guy speaks exclusively in cliches

Another word you might use for it is "looting". "This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..." www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/u...

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

Cut the season to 70 games. Just have the whole league play every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday night, and then let the players' bodies rest & recover for the 48-72 hours after every game. Stop being so damn greedy and understand that rest and routine will make the game better.

I think this story is a really good example for people to look at when it comes to understanding bias at NYT. It's not that the reporter, Dana Rubinstein, says anything outright false. But the framing, word choices, etc., add up to an unprofessional and biased account.

Rand Paul: "As far as reasons for the war, there have been many different ones floated, but none have been very convincing... we were told their nuclear weapons were obliterated, and now we're told their nuclear weapons are just moments away from being a bomb. I don't think the arguments are valid."

Mike Johnson blatantly makes stuff up: "We had information that they might well fire on us and it was imminent, and that it would hit our personnel. We could not wait for mass casualties on the American side."

Leavitt's responses to questions about Trump's call with Putin and whether or not he pressed him about sharing intelligence with Iran are evasive
