Just called Senators Grassley and Ernst about why the Des Moines Superintendent (Dr. Ian Roberts, Olympic track athlete originally from Guyana) has been detained by ICE in Pottawattamie County jail (Council Bluffs not Des Moines). iowacapitaldispatch.com/briefs/ice-d...

I’m telling you, there’s just not enough outrage about the craven actions of Speaker Mike Johnson.

Happy Friday! Here's an extremely cool thing: The Atlantic is offering public high schools in the United States free access to our journalism. Learn more here: theatlantic.com/hsaccess

Sheer hypocrisy from Kennedy as he derails UN declaration on non communicable chronic diseases eg diabetes , lung disease, autoimmunity instead making accusations about abortion and gender that have nothing to do with declaration.

BREAKING: The FBI has fired agents photographed kneeling during a 2020 racial justice protest that followed the death of George Floyd, AP sources say.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

From this angle, it looks like his nose IS growing… #RFK

You should not have to get out of bed on a rainy morning.

I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.

Did Ryan Routh receive a mental health evaluation?

Lawrence O’Donnell: “It’s a 12 foot tall statue of Donald Trump and the man who said he was Donald Trump’s closest friend for ten years, the sex trafficker and raper of children Jeffrey Epstein, who Donald Trump said was a terrific guy”

Meanwhile, Senators Elizabeth Warren, Ron Wyden, Ed Markey and Chris Van Hollen have announced an investigation into Nexstar and Sinclair, major TV station owners that account for roughly 70 ABC affiliates across the U.S., who are refusing to air “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

Here are advertisers on Sinclair's KRON4 10 PM News from 9/20/25. * = local biz. *SF Celebrity Golf Classic Ford AAA *Mancini's Sleepworld *Venardi/Zurada Law Firm *KZ Kitchen Covered California *Berg Injury Lawyers *Mike Counsil Plumbing Renew MD See below for what to do.

“Your (Sinclair’s) decision not to reinstate comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night talk show appears contrary to the inherently local aspects of your station licenses…” -Senator Maria Cantwell (WA) I’m not saying that was a politely worded warning, but that was 100% a politely worded warning.

It is worth remembering that two large corporations that own many local ABC stations across America, Sinclair and Nexstar, refused to air Kimmel last night. It’s not that millions of US citizens weren’t watching, it’s that they never even had the choice. So much for the ”free marketplace.”

Starting to think Eric Adams is simply an ET who interprets cultural expression with a lack of subtlety

What are people afraid of according to Google suggestions? Thunderstorms and travelling to the USA.

Homeschool anyone

All headlines just from today 🇺🇸

Just over on @cnn.com leaning into #newspeak But enlighten us. What exactly is a “chief loyalty enforcer?”

Make America Starving Again. awful.

Hear me out - can we add to the list of people that it’s universally ok to dislike the person in charge of how text boxes behave in word? I mean I have the same issues in 2025 as I had in 2001.

The aviation equivalent of wearing a mask they must be SO VERY PROUD of the fine work they're doing and TOTALLY unconcerned about the moral or legal implications of it

Best interview experience ever. No offense @davebauerart.bsky.social 😉

I just made sure I had canceled Hulu. Check mark. And canceled cable TV. I’ll just watch @Netflix. #Disney #Kimmel

New: Sarah MacLachlan, Jewel, and more musicians scheduled to perform at tonight's premiere for Hulu's ABC News doc LILITH FAIR have all pulled out after Disney scrapped the red carpet. First notable talent consequence of the Jimmy Kimmel situation.

Acetaminophen/paracetamol use in pregnancy doesn't cause autism, no matter what RFK says this week. This is not an unsettled question. Evidence summarized here: sciencebasedmedicine.org/tylenol-and-...

this exists it is called thinking

Citing concerns about DEI, the Department of Education has halted funding for programs that support students with combined hearing and vision loss in eight states. “How low can you go?” one advocate asked. “How can you do this to children?” By @jodiscohen.bsky.social @jsmithrichards.bsky.social

I just realized that I might be dealing with my general horror over *everything* by buying dresses but also I think it's proooobably okay as long as they're second-hand? Also it's not my fault that every dress on earth looks fucking adorable with cream snakeskin combat boots.

We can learn from our history. I remember studying Holocaust literature in college and then working for Densho.org & learning about the incarceration of 120,000 Japanese Americans during WWII. What is happening now is wrong—we cannot be silent.

Surgeon here. I hope it’s obvious none of this makes sense. There is no bone overlying your jugular vein/carotid artery.

Thanks so much. Had a new piece up today about how RFK’s attacks on the COVID vaccine represent the final blow to the much-vaunted “COVID toolkit” There is no plan for mitigation- even as Long COVID becomes the most common chronic illness in children. www.thegauntlet.news/p/with-rfks-...

Indeed.

I've seen a lot of videos lately of women that are peacefully protesting being violently thrown to the ground by angry men dressed in tactical gear with big guns. It's disgusting and jarring, but can I also point out that the women aren't the ones that look weak or scared.

...

hey remember when she Sieg Heil'd Trump at the 2016 Republican Convention? I do!

It's the worm. youtube.com/shorts/JPzXG...

Hey this is really bad if you like having teeth

The idea that the combined MMR is dangerous but separately the vaccines are fine was created out of whole cloth by Andrew Wakefield, a disgraced former doctor who had a patent on a non-combined version of the MMR. We've known his research was bunk for almost 30 years.

The vaccine advisory group ACIP, not all members of which seemed to know what the group does, recommended to the CDC that combined MMRV shots not be given before age 4. www.wired.com/story/vaccin...
