It’s a start. Keep making phone calls to keep partisan politics out of airport safety PSAs.

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

'Victory Lap'. This whole thing - while welcome news about the hostages on both sides - smacks of a Trump/Netanyahu circle jerk like from that fake AI video on 'Trump Gaza'. Cooked up and badly timed for the Nobel Peace Prize. This could have been done LAST year. 🧵

Just so you know. Glass houses and all that...

I love the smell of MAGA civil war in the morning.

Australia (and the rest of the world) knows what's up. Meanwhile, the fool Americans voted into office for the SECOND time, is all in on reviving the coal industry to prop up his base. Damn. "The country’s grid operator says shifting from coal to clean power is not only possible but inevitable." 🧵

Stop being hysterical about The Handmaid's Tale they said.

"merit alone" - hit 'em where it hurts. MIT President Sally Kornbluth said MIT disagrees w/ provisions of the proposal, including some that would limit free speech & the university’s independence. She said it’s inconsistent with MIT’s belief that 𝒔𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒇𝒊𝒄 𝒇𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒃𝒆 𝒃𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒐𝒏 𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒕 𝒂𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒆.

When ICE says " rapist, murderers, gang bangers, & worst of the worst," they actually mean hard-working mothers, fathers, their children, & now pastors. Call ICE what it is - an ill-trained, unrestrained, paramilitary force that believes there are no consequences for their actions. Unconscionable.

“‘I often wonder, even though the teaching of Sacred Scripture is so clear about the poor, why many people continue to think that they can safely disregard the poor,’ Pope Leo XIV states in his first magisterial document …” www.americamagazine.org/vatican-disp...

Pretty sure that soy beans and coal aren't desirable Rare Earth minerals, but, by all means, keep showing your ignorance. If we could outmatch them, why jack up the tariff rate in a panic? Trump: For every Element that they have been able to monopolize, we have two.” #showyourcards

Kudos, MIT! Y'all out there making Good Will Hunting - and me - very appreciative. Way to hold the line. ✊🏽

The accidental, non-DM that will live in infamy.

Unlike Pam Bondi, Lindsey Halligan, and the Eastern District of Virginia grand jurors, the Nobel Committee stood up to Trump's browbeating attempts. It awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to a worthy recipient. Props and respect. ✊ Congratulations, Maria Corina Machado!

This classic episode of "The Cosby Show" aired 40 YEARS ago today.... #GenX was seated for it. Rest easy, Malcolm-Jamal Warner 🕊

I wholeheartedly concur.

It’s #BannedBooksWeek and yes, they banned To Kill a Mockingbird because it “makes people uncomfortable.” That’s the point! Books that expose racism and injustice should make you squirm. Silencing truth is cowardice. Read what they fear.📚

I vote that Turning Point USA host their own new country somewhere very remote. It's always that other cultures need to adapt to them (Turning Point, MAGA, etc.) to make them comfortable. They wouldn't even consider trying to make people from other cultures comfortable. #iminmexicospeakenglish

No wonder we keep seeing headlines like this: Trump Sacrifices Alaska Wilderness to Help AI Companies - Trump’s approval of the 211-mile Ambler Road Project through Gates of the Arctic National Park hinges on winning an “AI arms race.”

Let's save everyone some time on this: Trump's doctor's assessment: "He's in the best shape I've ever seen for a 79-year-old. He could pass Navy SEAL BUDS training if that was something he wanted to do. I've never been more amazed at test results in my entire medical career."

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.

No one said that Stephen Miller was smart. There's no getting away from this for the GOP.

Hence, the core problem with Trump and his MAGA cult. Woefully ignorant of any culture but their own. Woefully ignorant of facts. Bad Bunny: 77 million monthly Spotify listeners, over 107 billion total Spotify streams by late 2025 Trump: “Never heard of' Bad Bunny. “I don’t know who he is."

We've known the GOP circulates all the culture war touchstones & topical talking points among their brethren. Still, it's pretty funny to see the US AG resort to crib notes to recall them. I'm shocked they weren't scribbled on her hand. Same as it ever was. A masterclass in performative bullshit.

😄😄😄

The Nobel Prizes, 5 of 6 having so far gone to US based scientists, are a reminder of why we must stand up for science against this horrid administration. Here are some great Scientist Activists to follow. go.bsky.app/14W5Rdk

Canada vs. America

Great that someone is FINALLY calling this activity to task and viewing it for what it is - unsanctioned, capricious killings. To date, no evidence of guilt has been presented to anyone that I know of.

Trump regime transparency...

The Democrats did not vote to shut the government down. They refused to vote in favor of a continuing resolution to fund the government, which was necessary because the Republicans 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒂𝒔𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒔—until Republicans reverse a drastic cut they have made to healthcare.

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory! Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

They're taking all kinds of pleasure. Don't fall for that GOP okey doke. “Square something for me. How can you say, ‘They take no pleasure in this, and then the next minute say, ‘Oh, they’re just having fun and trolling people?’”  Mike Johnson Snaps When Shutdown Comments Thrown Back in His Face

Spot on.

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

So to call Trump the "Red State President" is totally legit. So rather than POTUS, he's POTRS. Kinda like the Mad Hatter. He's the Mad POTRS.

Stories about pious Christian leaders assaulting children no longer surprise me. "Morris, 64, pleaded guilty on Thursday [to] five criminal counts of lewd or indecent acts w/ a child. He was sentenced to 10 years in custody, but as part of a plea deal, he will serve 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒊𝒙 𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒉𝒔 in county jail."

The irony is not lost on me that the Administration that follows the Trump regime will ACTUALLY have to "Make America Great Again".

When you consider the number of Americans who died because Trump mishandled COVID and now the number of Americans who will die because of his regime's medical research and healthcare funding cuts, and their HHS and climate policies, the number of needless American deaths will be unimaginable.

Don’t stop rubbing their noses in the teachings of Christ.

Some of us were talking about both subjects before it was cool.
