What do they know? All the MAGAs flipping. Is there a new report? More evidence? Video? A diagnosis?

Big helps

The SPLC has long monitored and exposed white nationalist and Christian nationalist hate groups, so it makes sense that an administration staffed by many people sympathetic to one or both of those movements would use the DOJ to go after them.

Love wins.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars. We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director. Please stand by for more.

"Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial: Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later."

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded. “This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.” www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez: “Here in Spain, we are approving and advancing a process to regularise half a million immigrants. “And I want to say to the Right and the Far Right who oppose this: Spain is the daughter of migration and will not become the mother of xenophobia.”

I really need everyone to be grossed out and bored by this President. As long as he can run his reality TV games, the media will keep shoving him down our throats. The war in Iran can be covered like the actual news and not like TMZ.

Told ya: those concentration camps are for anyone they don't like.

Eliminating libraries in prisons is a disaster, completely shortsighted. Libraries are a lifeline for incarcerated people who want to learn and grow, and have few other options.

In his strongest words yet, Pope Leo XIV on Saturday denounced the “delusion of omnipotence” that is fueling the U.S.-Israel war in Iran and demanded political leaders stop and negotiate peace.

Splashdown for the Artemis II crew is expected Friday, April 10, off the California coast near San Diego. Follow along for the latest developments.

France's move to ditch Windows for Linux is its latest effort to reduce its reliance on American tech giants.

Love the the Artemis crew. Four extraordinary humans: brilliant, disciplined, and deeply mission-driven. What stands out even more than their intelligence is their character. Kindness. Positivity. Humility. Empathy. The future of space exploration shouldn’t just be bold, it should be human. 🚀✨👇

We are at a point where public Unis should probably be doing blind lotteries of qualified applicants for spots. The legacy/donor angle may be the more interesting one at this point, tbh share.google/ra2MevZWnoN2...

It is hard to capture what a sweeping strategic defeat the war in Iran has been for the United States. I’m going to thread here some of the posts today that try to capture those effects. Here’s the first:

He still needs to be removed from office. A war powers resolution will not suffice. He circumvented Congress to start the war. He circumvented them on tariffs and appropriations. Why anyone thinks he'd adhere to a Congressional war powers resolution is beyond me.

Whenever my husband and I are describing something that has no hidden layers and you can take it at face value we say “it’s not deep, it’s snakes on a plane.” I feel like this is an elder millennial signifier.

The deleterious effects of not having a hobby are becoming a defining point in this cultural moment—and who is poised to help? That’s right: the autistics. Job fair day where we all set up tables explaining our deep dives and give people a hand out, a path back to society.

Corrupt men build and rebuild corrupt kingdoms they can rule. Whether an island, a corporation, a courtroom, an elected office: little men want to be big kings with zero accountability. The riddle I'd love to solve: the corrupt claim our power to protect themselves. How can we see it sooner?
