OMB nominee Hal Duncan: “This administration is committed to gold standard science and wants to advance the best cancer research that we possibly can.” Sen. Slotkin: “Slashing cancer research…is not a way to uphold a gold standard for cancer research.”

Damn Colbert is a treasure. He very knowingly and intentionally played Linus and Lucy on the air, and the copyright holder joyfully got a fine out of CBS for it and then donated it to World Central kitchen. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

He's lying. You know why we know? WE HAVE THE AGREEMENT HE SIGNED!!!! Here's the operative language: "The U.S. undertakes, together with regional partners, a comprehensive plan...for the rehabilitation and economic development of Iran...of at least $300 billion."

This is not part of the agreement. He is making this up. Iran agrees to give up NOTHING on their nuclear program in this deal.

"The mere existence of trillionaires is a major political and economic problem, probably the defining issue of our time," writes @gabrielzucman.bsky.social. "When the power of wealth is wielded by sociopaths, the consequences are a matter of life and death."

"russ_and_stacie_sullivan: Good morning, friends! Last night at WaterFire in #Providence, 🔥a bunch of friends from different groups got together for a Signs of Fascism awareness event Signs of #Fascism is an event that highlights historical warning signs of #authoritarianism..." Threads 2-3 👇

Mamdani: "Solidarity with a government that is committing genocide is a very different thing than a question of solidarity with people of a specific faith. I'm proud to be a mayor of the city with the largest Jewish population in this country."

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Stay tuned. There will be more.

NEW: A trove of internal records from Dialog, the secret society cofounded by Peter Thiel, was left exposed online. WIRED obtained a second cache of records that reveal who's really attending, how they're screened, and what personal details they were promised would stay private.

If a Democratic president started a war of choice, spent $100s of billions, blew up international military & economic alliances, then completely surrendered giving opposing nation $100s of billions in reparations while empowering their anti-US regime: Corporate Media would have justly crucified him.

SCOOP: So remember Dialog, Peter Thiel's private society that doesn't have a public website and no public list of members? I (along with a number of other journalists) have just been tipped off that embedded in the code of their closed off website there IS what seems to be a list of some members.

Lonsdale, you say. cybernews.com/news/elon-mu...

This is bombshell stuff.

Face it, Donny. The world leaders are literally turning their backs on you. Nobody likes you. Not even a little. 😂

A very flawed paper that anti-vaxxers use to support the false conclusion that vaccines cause autism was retracted last week because of “concerns about methodology…and conclusions”. Of course RFK Jr. in his role as HHS Secretary is now demanding an explanation. Here it is: the data are shite.

If Texas’ MMRC is not reauthorized, Texans will lose the most important source of data about preventable reasons for maternal deaths and severe illness.

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby—a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist—to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

The administration’s rapid response account is… mad at the Weather Channel. For reporting the weather.

There you have it the headlines for tomorrow.

Ms. Rachel: As the American Academy of Pediatrics says, there is no safe amount of time for a child to be in detention. The Dilley immigration detention center must be shut down. We need to end the cruel policies of family detention and family separation.

it's notable to me that the administration tried to frame tonight's UFC event as a "gift to Americans" but you can't watch it unless you have a paid subscription to Paramount+

THANK you, KTLA

One year ago, an act of political violence claimed the lives of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman, her husband, Mark, and their dog, Gilbert, in their home. That same day, Minnesota Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, were also shot multiple times and survived their injuries.

What happened? Pretty simple. Y'all were lying ...

NEW: Jeffery Epstein continued to exploit women and associate with the rich and famous during his time in jail, an NBC News investigation shows.

Every word true.

NO 👇 LIES DETECTED.......

OB-GYNs release their own vaccine schedule, rejecting RFK Jr.'s meddling arstechnica.com/health/2026/...

Iran, a country whose military we’ve supposedly “destroyed,” was able to shoot down a U.S. Apache helicopter during a “ceasefire,” in the middle of a war that Americans have been told is not a war, while also being told it’s only “two days” from ending. Does any of this make sense?

The report about the surveillance at Madison Square Garden and other James Dolan properties is insane and towards the bottom, there’s a reveal that this kind of surveillance will also be used against fans during the World Cup www.wired.com/story/madiso...

According to Gates’ congressional testimony, Epstein learned about his infidelities and tried to use that information to pull him back in. One more reminder that Epstein’s real currency wasn’t money. It was secrets

NBA is rigged! when Spurs had 29 point lead the game should have been immediately stopped and Spurs declared winner. Instead officials decides to play "4th quarter?" and Knicks "somehow" score enough baskets to win. Fraud!

Nailed it here. 👇

WE SHOULD BE EMBARRASSED 🤬 The way the U.S. welcomed the team from Senegal 🇸🇳 vs. The way Mexico welcomed the team from Spain 🇪🇸 #WorldCup

It is essential that DOJ release the files—even if it takes a court order. And, thus is why Katie Phang's lawsuit is so important. Today, our ongoing investigation in Oversight continues—with Bill Gates. Watch our full interview with Katie on the case here: youtu.be/C4HpJX2Owms

Dozing Donnie has to keep riling up the cult with manufactured propaganda and lies.

Just learned that, in my state, only 450,000 cast a vote out of 3.3 million registered voters 🫩 Y'all I'm so tired of this. If you hate Lindsey Graham, only you have the power to get rid of him. PLEASE vote Annie in November. I'm begging at this point. Just show up. Bare minimum.

Your daily reminder this should be the biggest scandal in American politics right now but nobody seems to care. Ken Paxton freed a man who raped a boy for 3 years. He also doesnt have to register as a sex offender. www.texastribune.org/2026/05/19/k...

I toured the Los Angeles election office two years ago. It is impressive, but what is particularly galling about Trumo’s vote fraud claims is that they made special viewing areas just so anyone (including the campaigns and parties) can observe the full ballot counting process

"The president is not well. He has tremendous difficulty staying awake on the job. He has repeatedly fallen asleep at Cabinet meetings, at White House events, at a Memorial Day ceremony, and most recently at a very loud NBA game last night."

Wait. For. It. NASA animation shows Global temps warm slowly at first, then rapidly. Warming is accelerating! Here’s the truth. It’s real. It’s us. And we have to come to terms with it, and deal with reality, rather than deceiving ourselves, and hoping it goes away. It won’t… without intervention.

The climate crisis is real. We should be pushing for renewables. Instead, the world's largest banks have committed nearly $1 trillion to the fossil fuel industry. Our country, our way of life, the very planet we call home, is being held to ransom by bankers. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

NEW: In February, I visited Raw Farm. You may have heard of it. RFK Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow are customers. It supplies raw dairy products to 500 stores nationwide. And regulators have linked it to over a dozen recalls and outbreaks that have made hundreds sick. 🧵👇

Imagine being the most decorated gymnast in history, almost dying, and media referring to you as “NFL Wife” as your greatest achievement.😑 Misogyny is a helluva drug. Smh. Truly hope Simone is safe and makes a full recovery. What a horrible experience.

Trump is removing devices that track climate change in our oceans. Because they don't work? No, because they work too well and provide inconvenient data! Apparently, climate change is like COVID, if you don't track it, it doesn't exist. Truly, we are living in the most destructive, stupid times.
