I wish I enjoyed Dave Matthews Band music as much as their politics. But one outta two ain’t bad

Charlize Theron on the Night Her Mother Killed Her Father in Self-Defense Unfortunately, this is not an isolated story. These things are prevalent in a lot of homes. Women really get a very, very unfair shake, even in this country. Nobody takes it seriously.

Hey MAGA. What happened to all of Hegseth's steaks and shrimp, lobster tails and ice cream that you all insisted were for the troops?

The short version: Talks are happening “tomorrow evening” in Islamabad, and if they fall apart Trump’s threatening war crimes again. He toned down the wording this time, not the intent.

Thank you for your courage to publicly address abusive language.

ICE raids are ravaging N.J.’s restaurant industry, owners say. ‘People disappear overnight.’ www.nj.com/food/2026/04...

Federal court denied Government's motion to dismiss class action by former contractors of USAID. Court pointed to public statements by Elon Musk and administration as potential evidence of animus (i.e., bad faith). Justice is slow, but hopefully steady.

ICE is still terrorizing working people and the Epstein regime is still in charge of the American people. But there is something happening in the USA with a shift around the world. Thanks to all of you. 💙🪧🌏

An ICE Air flight (OAE2066) is scheduled to depart Alexandria, LA for Senegal (likely for fuel) at around midnight. We’ll be monitoring for possible transfers and deportations in the region, including transfer of 30+ third-country nationals to DRC per @reuters.com

Two years ago, we devoted an entire issue to the rise of a new American oligarchy. Since then, this system has only become more entrenched, ever concentrated around a crew of tech titans going all in on AI. Our newest cover story investigates these new AI overlords and their consolidation of power.

Why do we have lawmakers in Congress who are willing to hold fellow members of Congress accountable for sexual assault but not a President?

Rep. Casar grills RFK Jr. on health care cuts: "There are people whose health insurance costs went from $100 a month to $500 a month. $500 a month may not be a lot to you or to some of the billionaires that y'all are talking to, but for these moms with kids, they've lost their health insurance."

MAGA: Pope Leo is the worst pope of all time. Pope Leo today:

White House Faith Director Jenny Korn: "The president honored Jesus Christ, which was amazing"

Rep. @rephaleystevens.bsky.social: "AMERICANS ARE LESS SAFE UNDER YOUR WATCH. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED. YOU SHOULD RESIGN. AND IF YOU DON'T YOU WILL BE IMPEACHED!"

"Millions of Americans are wondering if this president is delusional and thinks he's Jesus Christ" -- Brilliant line of questioning here from Rep. Takano to RFK Jr about Trump's nutso social media posts and what it says about his mental health

B: This is a personal focus for me. Major new program at the HHS. Patrick Kennedy helped write policy on this. Let's offline about this...call me at any time. Norcross: there isn't a penalty if insurance violates parity. SAMHSA CUTS! Restore this funding. Yield back. RECESS.

B: Insurance companies represent 80% of american lives. They all agreed to end prior auth! (why did I have to get prior auth LAST WEEK THEN????) Ppl without medical degrees making life or death decisions...it's not a good system (this is true and very bad, agree) C: Healthcare system in US is bad

B: Only way to solve this problem is to deal with chronic disease...the other issue is the cost of drugs. *incorrect information about MFN stuff*...lack of transparency of healthcare. (hey btw, universal healthcare would fix this)
