Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks. They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Idiocy. Bigotry. Cruelty.

A critical incident has been declared after a 48-year-old woman's body was found inside a car at a police station car park.

You just know Trump still has that medal on.

It happened again: The Trump administration has admitted illegally deporting a man to Guatemala despite an immigration judge's order that he was likely to be tortured there. A judge has ordered the administration to facilitate his return by next week.storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

As congressional scrutiny of Pete Hegseth intensifies, Donald Trump is starting to tire of his scandals. Atlantic writers spoke with roughly two dozen officials about the defense secretary’s bad week:

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake? TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

Researchers are relieved as baby blue whale numbers increase after a slow start to the migration season.

I assume by “our” he is not talking about the company he owns that is the subject of the fine. I think by “our” he means that the government of the US must fight his battle for him.

It really is amazing that the president has a noticeable an unexplained physical ailment that is disfiguring his right hand and there's no reporting about it. The White House's line is that it's from Trump shaking too many hands! Something is clearly being covered up.

The stark beauty of Australia's protected APY Lands is alive with ancient songlines and culture. But Elders see a need for change to secure the future of today's children.

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

Such an incredible honor, wow. A dignified, esteemed award. Just plop that medal around your neck, great.

this shit is just beyond parody, man

The pipe bomb suspect was a Trump supporter who opposed the 2020 Election result.

Kash Patel must have forgotten to tell the American people this part yesterday. Must have slipped his mind.

Breaking news: A vaccine advisory panel has voted to end the long-standing recommendation that newborns receive the hepatitis B vaccine — the most significant change to the childhood immunization schedule under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Fox & Friends and Pam Bondi are now sensationalizing specific instances of Somalis being charged with crimes in Minnesota to demonize the whole population

REP. HIMES: “The video was enormously disturbing… the example given in the DOD manual is of shipwrecked sailors. You do not kill them.”

This is the third newsroom (at least) with an FBI leak about the suspect being a Trump supporter. Seems some FBI folks — presumably not the political hires —are very eager to get this out there.

The most interesting part of this story isn’t that the pipe bomber is MAGA. That was blatantly obvious. What should interest folks is that the FBI and DoJ hid that fact from you, and still haven’t made a statement. This info is coming from sources on the condition of anonymity.

CNN: Are you worried about Sec Hegseth's leadership considering what you're seeing here from the IG? REP. MARK ALFORD: Not one big. I think Pete made a mistake in using Signal for some of this information. We've moved on from that Q: Should he admit his mistake? ALFORD: Look, I'm not Pete Hegseth

Brian Cole, Jr., the Virginia man charged with planting two pipe bombs on Capitol Hill the night before Jan. 6, 2021, has told investigators he believed the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.

The CEO of Palantir.

And there it is. The State Department will now be Musk’s lawyers.

And once again the power of the US government will be used to represent a private company owned by the single largest donor to Trump campaign to leverage foreign governments.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars. She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

RSF massacres left Sudanese city ‘a slaughterhouse’, satellite images show

They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

I’m confused because Trump months ago demanded that India stop buying Russian oil and he told us that Modi agreed not to. What happened with that?

Health officials in Gaza report 366 Palestinians have been killed and 938 injured by Israeli forces since the October 10 ceasefire.

So he’s saying when he was a podcaster he was being paid to lie and invent conspiracies for his listeners but now he has to tell the truth.
