Military conflict in the Strait of Hormuz continues harming marine life despite a ceasefire: noise, explosions, mines, and pollution disrupt feeding, communication, and habitats, with long-lasting ecosystem damage in the region’s slow-recovering waters

I hate the all-party primary in California. I’d love to be able to cast a vote without having to worry whether a Democrat will be on the general ballot. We need to end this.

There are probably a few things that should get you banned from Hollywood forever but one of them is definitely writing or in any way being involved in a movie in which a dog dies I don't know what we have to do to make clear to Hollywood that no one anywhere wants to see movies in which a dog dies

Like Colin Kaepernick, former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe sacrificed his NFL career to stand up for his values. Now he's running for a California assembly seat. My story, with quotes from @robertgarcia.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/714...

ICE DETENTION FOR PROFIT 🚨Respect and thanks to Representatives Yassamin Ansari, Greg Stanton, and Adelita Grijalva for their unannounced visit to an ICE detention center with disgusting conditions, that tried to pull a fast one. People need to be prosecuted for this. 1/2

BTW Trump significantly reduced funding to the Red Cross. Impact on Red Cross: 2,900 job losses and significant reductions to its operational capacity.

Long may you roam...

Matt Schlapp grifting off Hungarian taxpayers comes to an end.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

A #Ukrainian lady shared a video of the ruins in her hometown of Kherson. The building of a local college was destroyed by 5 Russian KABs, she wrote. Every time I or any other pro-Ukrainian account show you the footage of the ruins caused by Russia, it's never just about the walls and roof.

“Pierre Poilievre was Housing Minister in Stephen Harper’s Conservative government, which allowed 800,000 affordable rental units to be sold off to corporate landlords and developers. Under Harper, the average home price in Canada went up 70%, and Poilievre refused to do anything about it.”

HILLARY CLINTON: Orbán’s loss is a win for the Hungarian people, it’s a win for Europe, it’s a win for democracy. I hope it’s also a win for Ukraine, and it is a significant defeat for Putin, for Trump, and for the forces of authoritarianism around the world.

Donald Trump defunded the Red Cross.

Placing the blame where it truly belongs.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

Incredible reporting here.

Hell yes, Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberals just secured a majority government in Canada, coming just a day after Dictator Orbán lost his tyrannical seat of power in Hungary. Much more global pro-democracy wins please. America needs to be next. 💙👊

The Maah Daah Hey Trail in North Dakota’s Badlands is one of the most celebrated hiking and biking routes in America. 144 miles of singletrack winding through some of the most remote and stunning landscape in the country. The Trump administration is putting it on the chopping block.

A U.S. citizen is speaking out after being detained in a Minnesota facility, exposing what he describes as "horrific" conditions.

PA last month said the two Trump prison camps they want to put there can't be hooked up to water or sewer (and therefore can't open). www.pa.gov/agencies/dep... Now MD says Trump the prison camp they're trying to put near Hagerstown can't get sewer either: www.projectsaltbox.com/p/maryland-o...

Orbán fell because the people stopped playing by rigged rules. This plan demands we do the same: bar judges who used 'originalism' as a weapon to dismantle rights and freeze the network's assets. Receipts are in this plan.

God spoke to me just a little while ago, and said JD Vance should sitteth the fuck down and shutteth the fuck up.

A number of other major journalism organizations have also recently moved to restrict the Wayback Machine from archiving their stories, including The New York Times.

A 180-mph super typhoon is both a product of the Pacific's record warmth and a catalyst for what could be a historic El Niño.

Hey now! Kinda wild that it took the Swalwell debacle & threats of dual expulsions to do it, but damn

If you’re a sexual abusing politician, today is an excellent day to resign. I’m talking to you, you loathsome slug, Donald Trump.

Did you know that when bees grow old…they spend their last night resting gently on a flower beneath the stars. If they see another sunrise, they’ll gather one last bit of pollen…So when you see a little bee resting on a flower at dusk…pause & thank her. She’s more precious than gold. ~ GardeningSoul
