Socha has been nominated to be the next director of the National Park Service for some time now. But we still have the opportunity to stop his confirmation. We just have to make enough noise now.

NEW: Donald Trump has released his national policy on AI, banning states from regulating AI development on their own land. It also protects AI companies from any liability when someone uses their tool to cause harm or break the law.

If you don’t think Donald Trump has completely lost his marbles, then you need to watch this.

Why just why? Because one town in Maine wants one? So the whole state must suffer? Awful decision

Atlantic writer sued by Kash Patel says she’s been ‘inundated’ with new sources corroborating her reporting

This President tells us every day that no election is free and fair unless HE wins. Well, that's not how it works in America, no matter how many tantrums he throws. Trump lost the 2020 election. That will never change and I have zero intention of letting him rewrite history.

Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

Phang: In one of those “you only believe it if you read it” moments, Politico says there are Republicans on Oversight who support the idea of convicted felon Trump giving a pardon to Ghislaine Maxwell. The fact that that is even being considered by House Oversight Republicans should disgust you.

New Hampshire is literally called the Granite State

Trump completely passed out, reawakened, then passed out again during today's pressor in the Oval Office. 😂🤣👇

The UAE invested billions in the Trump family’s cryptocurrency ventures. But the UAE is now facing an economic downturn due to Trump’s war on Iran. In response, Trump may grant the UAE a financial bailout from the U.S. What might Trump get in return? A bigger boost to his net worth? Hello?

BREAKING: The Pentagon has fired the Stars and Stripes ombudsman — the role Congress created to protect the military paper's editorial independence — after she publicly criticized the DOD's overhaul of the publication. w/ @liamjscott.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Okay, who did this? 🤣🤣

Yesterday, journalist Amal Khalil was struck by an IDF airstrike while she was reporting in southern Lebanon. As rescuers tried to save her life, they were fired upon.

Khalil is the 9th journalist killed by Israeli strikes in Lebanon this year. [1/2]

Senate Republicans voted against lowering out-of-pocket health care costs, reversing cuts to food programs, and a measure to lower rising electricity prices in their budget blueprint. But they voted to give Trump’s ICE thugs $70 billion to keep terrorizing our communities. Priorities.

That’s our money. Money that we paid into the treasury.

There is no excuse. None. Republicans have the votes, they have the power—and tonight they are choosing, deliberately, to do nothing for families and everything for ICE.   It’s past 3 AM and they’re jamming through $70 billion for ICE and $0 for families.   Spread the word.

I fucking hate him.

I bet Tim Cook has dealt with a lot in his time, but this has to be the most embarrassing girlbye shoutout I have ever seen.

WI should start working with Ridglan Farms, a troubled WI breeder of beagles for research, to rehome 2,000 dogs now to give the dogs the lives they deserve. The breeder needs a plan to protect the dogs from inhumane treatment after a settlement agreement to close their breeding business.

Donald says we would have won the Vietnam War if he'd been president. Maybe he should have just served.

New Hungarian PM brutally confronts a news channel that banned him for years.

The fact there was a mass shooting with EIGHT dead today and it barely made the front page of any news site tells you everything you need to know how fucked up we are as a country. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/19/us/shreveport-mass-shooting-dead-children.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

It was the second attempt in as many months by protesters to take beagles from the Ridglan Farms facility in Blue Mounds

Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.

One of the world's rarest whales lives in only one place: the Gulf of Mexico, where the Trump administration wants to expand oil and gas drilling that scientists fear could push the giant mammal to extinction. https://to.pbs.org/4sUKB5a

Head of federal law enforcement stages authoritarian crackdown on political enemies in attempt to appease Trump because he's afraid the journalistic exposé of his uncontrolled alcoholism is putting his job in jeopardy

In a sane administration, the FBI Director doesn’t go on the morning news to prove he’s not a drunk, the Defense Secretary doesn’t quote Tarantino to prove he’s a man of God, and the President doesn’t take multiple cognitive exams to prove he’s not insane.

For the first time in decades, consensus broke at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. The United States cast the lone “no” vote on a document aimed at improving justice systems for women and girls worldwide. Misogyny is the official policy of the US under Trump.

He's an evil piece of shit, and after 10 years we're closing in on everyone seeing it He's *dismissing* hundreds of raped kids—and I bet a lot of people who hear him do so will imagine that he's doing something so otherwise unthinkable because some of those kids were his victims

The rationed slop being served to troops by the U.S. navy … compared to what the French and Swedish navies serve their troops.

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

Read that again. This Louisiana bill forces homeless people to choose between jail and "treatment"—and if they can't pay for the latter, they will be forced to perform unpaid labor. The historical precedents are clear: convict leasing, Black Codes, debtor's prison.

Vance says that stopping funding for Ukraine is one of his proudest achievements in this administration. ​I’m watching this stunningly cruel speech from Ukraine, as Russia continues to kills us every day. Just today, they killed 8-year-old boy in Cherkasy and five people in Dnipro.

Shame on DoorDash for participating in Trump’s “no taxes on tips” scam. Aside from their D.C. DoorDash “Grandma” being a GOP operative from Arkansas, it’s mathematically impossible for her to have saved $11,000 in taxes this year as a result of Trump’s bullshit bill.

The Justice Department wants to vacate the conviction of Zach Rehl, the ex-leader of the Philly Proud Boys who helped incite the attack on the Capitol.

We are deciding right now if we are to be a nation of concentration camps and ethnic cleansing. And there is much citizens can do!

"It's an extraordinary statement." Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe, who was among the conclave that elected Pope Leo, rejects Donald Trump's claim the American pontiff was chosen as "the best way to deal" with the US president. #Newsnight

For decades, birthday party clowns folded balloons and played games. John Wayne Gacy is taking a different approach.
