Surprise, surprise. The party hell-bent on destroying the social, economic, political, cultural, and environmental fabric of the US doesn't want experts studying "how social, economic, political, cultural and environmental forces affect the lives of people."

Y'all, they threw Pam Bondi's official DOJ portrait in the trash, then LEAKED a photo to the media. There is literally no upside to being a MAGA bootlicker. www.ms.now/news/pam-bon...

I’m so happy someone leaked the video LMFAO

In case you're wondering what life on a Daily Wire production is apparently like... deadline.com/2026/04/jona...

More than 2 million oil and gas wells sit unplugged in the U.S., many leaking contaminants into waterways, farmland and neighborhoods. Time and time again, oil companies have walked away — leaving taxpayers to pay for cleanup. Here’s how. (Published Dec. 2024)

The Fox/Blame Biden statute of limitations has officially expired. 💀

Worth noting that the U.S. military was murdering fishermen off the coast of Venezuela who had survived the initial attacks on their boats but Iran appears to be following the Geneva Convention and only apprehending their captives

had to go see the landback skyscrapers for myself

Stop talking about graphs, check this out.

The NSF has been compromised.

The notion of targeting an individual rather than a crime is supposed to be anathema to the ethics of career federal prosecutors, who, in the words of former Attorney General Robert Jackson, have “more control over life, liberty, and reputation than any other person in America.”

The political calculations that result in cutting NASA funding the day after the Artemis II launch must be fascinating

More than 100 international law experts express "profound concern" about serious violations of international law by the US, Israel and Iran. US-Israeli decision to attack on Iran was a clear breach of the United Nations Charter. Trump has weakened the UN to create a dangerous new world.

Led by @oagmaryland.bsky.social, we’ve joined a coalition of attorneys general across the country challenging President Trump’s UNLAWFUL attempt to interfere with states’ constitutional authority to administer elections.

lmao, i love this for all of them. try to jam a party-line reconciliation budget that slashes medicare, medicaid and all other kinds of services while ramping up giant military funding for a deeply unpopular war in an election year where both your party and president are deep underwater

bluesky is dying again thank god we shall be *freed*

Glad Congress had the chance to thoroughly debate and vote on this, as the Constitution requires.

Wow, and in Georgia!! Great news...

Garcia: Blanche just said that the Epstein investigation is basically in the past, that he’s not going to address it moving forward, and that all the documents were released. I mean, that’s just a bold-faced lie.

I know I’m being petty the straight white guys will come after me but I must take issue with the notion that being canceled takes “a couple of years to wear off” Please come see me at theaters smaller than the Hollywood Bowl get tickets at kathygriffin.com I promise to NOT make you watch me jerk off

Platforms can die but posting endures

"The KKK Memorial Park is staffed by slave labor" is the most Georgia headline of all time

This + Hegseth only inviting Protestants to Good Friday services + the attack on Iran = the evangelicals are crazed with power

It turns out that breaching the wall between church and state means that some branches of Christianity are officially elevated over others. Who could have known? When in the last 500 years could such a lesson possibly have been learned?

NEW: Before Nick Shirley went to California this year, DOGE's Edward "Big Balls" Coristine was helping him "extract" info from a public dataset to identify targets for his YouTube "investigation" into fraud. w/ @telliotter.bsky.social More here: www.wired.com/story/edward...

What does it look like when the government violates court orders in 300 separate immigration habeas cases? @katherinepomps.bsky.social and @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org announce a new database which tracks government non-compliance with court orders around the country.

Lololololololololololololololol they changed it

you, a naive fool: i do believe there are some things the nytimes won’t both sides the nytimes:

“The problem is not that these hand-selected prosecutors have not been trying to bring these cases. The problem is that grand juries and judges have resoundingly rejected them time and time again, and juries can be expected to do exactly the same."

“TELL ME ABOUT DESPAIR, YOURS, AND I WILL TELL YOU MINE!”

We also want less segregated neighborhoods and cities. If you want a more just society, bring people together & keep them together. My kid went to a low-cost LA city-funded daycare, where dentists & fast food workers & electricians also took their kid. It was a good thing.

This might be the largest party lead I've ever seen among the double haters www.cnn.com/2026/04/03/p...

OMG THIS IS TOO CUTE!!!! #ArtemisII

Did they see all of us complaining about how hard writing was and think this was the solution we wanted when what we really wanted was robust funding for the arts and humanities and comments in MS Word footnotes?

He thinks he's still bargaining with Iran when he's actually just in step 3 of the Kübler Ross model of loss.

“They’re destroying more than fifty research facilities across thirty-one states, labs that house decades of irreplaceable long-term science…And they’re replacing all of it — the offices, the scientists, the institutional knowledge, the professional independence — with fifteen political appointees”

We have a very simple solution to universal programs benefiting the wealthy. You claw back the money through taxes on the back end. Everyone has known this for 100 years, but people get to pretend they don’t when it’s convenient for their ideology.

"Put simply, 'child care or war' is a false choice. The U.S. has the money to pay for child care, even if we are also funding a costly, unpopular and arguably unconstitutional war. That money is just stuck in the wrong hands." My latest for @ms.now : www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

“My patient is refusing a drug studied in 170,000 people because of side effects that a 124,000-person analysis just confirmed do not exist — while injecting a compound studied in 14 humans, from unregulated sources, based on the recommendation of someone who profits from selling it.”

The means-testing thing is so pernicious man. Designed in a lab to sow resentment, degrade the public good, shrink services and transfer costs away from government coffers and to individuals’ post-tax income

they call it “means testing” because bringing it up will test how fucking mean i can get at whoever is doing it,

About time

If this were a Biden Cabinet member, the "damaging rumor" — that Hegseth put on a disguise to go out drinking — would be in the headline.

Yes, AND we actually have evidence (from the wonderful Liz Cascio) that universal preschool benefits low-income kids MORE than means-tested programs: jhr.uwpress.org/content/58/1/1. Good headline fodder for my class’ discussion of this paper next week!

I don’t think anyone is in the mood for Booker’s “everyone just get along” approach to politics.

Cory Booker should simply recognize that we live in bad faith times
