Former Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin has been ordered to serve 60 days in jail as the legal battle with his adopted son Jonah continues. Jonah speaks about the abuse, bringing attention to the accountability of adoptive parents who fail to care for the children they adopt. buff.ly/xhfSGFv 🥚

that’s right

Senior researchers at a meeting of the American Diabetes Association were handing out copies of an editorial, published in the association's journal, condemning Trump administration cuts to diabetes research. Police came to arrest them. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/05/w...

"...officers did not...say why they could not distribute the editorial, [but] Kahn thought it was clear the American Diabetes Association was worried about repercussions... ...'professional organizations are worried about their nonprofit status. And so bunches of them have been quieted...'"

This is legalized child abuse.

This is the single most alarming thing I’ve seen yet from RFK Jr. He is attempting to get identifiable medical records from ALL OF US. “Under the proposal, HHS would get data from 90% of the population’s medical records by 2028”. This CANNOT be permitted to happen.

GOOD NEWS! A personalized mRNA vaccine, known as mRNA-4157, has shown promise in keeping melanoma, a deadly skin cancer, from returning. FIVE years later, NEARLY 70% of people in the vaccine group are CANCER-FREE. The vaccine also cut a person’s risk of the cancer metastasizing by NEARLY 60%.

I want to say one thing about this. This has been the hiring process for low wage workers for awhile. Wal Mart et al have been using automated job application systems to gamify everything from postings to schedules. The crisis, such that it is, is that it is now happening in middle skills jobs.

The deaths of these babies likely could have been prevented with a long-standard vitamin K shot. For reporter @deldeib.bsky.social, their autopsy reports painted the clearest picture of the tragedy of their short lives.

This is a fundamental misunderstanding of consent: ⬇️ "If a vulnerable person appears passive or does not actively protest their arrangements, the law may recognise this as "consent" — even if they are subjected to routine physical restraint or chemical sedation..." Horrific.

Never underestimate the power of the surveillance industry to pivot and pitch their tools as a solution to literally any problem. Remember when face recognition, drones, and robots were suddenly the best way to enforce social distancing and do contact tracing during COVID?

This is terrifying

NJ Gov Mikie Sherrill gets fact checked in real time, and gets caught lying. See her two posts claiming: 1) Protestors knocked down the barrier at Delaney Hall, & 2) Police were not in riot gear Then see the video of full riot gear police knocking down the barrier in the next post. 1/2

Why are so many American elites bunkering down? It’s not the chaos—that’s a feature not a bug. They’re preparing to escape accountability. Thiel is building a jurisdictional bunker, Musk is building a corporate bunker & Trump is building a literal bunker. www.mind-war.com/p/bunkering-...

⚠️ "on TrumpRx - each page is making phone calls to servers all over the internet with dozens per second. One of those is "PostHog" an analytics company that records what users do on a website. It's everything from following mouse movements to scrolls and clicks www.alternet.org/trump-govern...

Israel has killed or injured 11 children in Lebanon every day, as it expanded strikes across the country despite a ceasefire.

This is bad. Three Washington state protesters have been found guilty of federal conspiracy charges for sitting in front of a bus taking people to an immigration detention center in Tacoma, and now face 6 years. Six others took plea deals rather than going to trial. newrepublic.com/post/211138/...

A lot of white people learned about the Tuskegee experiment during the pandemic and believe that is the reason Black people don't trust the medical establishment. This is not true. Black people don't trust the medical establishment because the Tuskegee experiment is not an outlier.

🥚 US adoptee Kyle Adler has been reunited w his birthmother. “The 36-yo is one of thousands of children who were stolen from Chilean families.” Tellingly, his adoptive parents didn’t support Kyle’s search. I hate that for him. I also hate that they named him Kyle…1/3 apnews.com/article/chil...

Delaney detainees are fed worm-infested food, forced into slave labor in exchange for showers, being denied cancer and HIV meds. A woman miscarried inside and was denied medical care. They are being denied water. People are being forced to sit in their own menstrual blood with no sanitary supplies.

Men filming women against their consent and then demanding payment to have the footage removed is yet another clear example of how normal and lucrative predatory behavior against women is.

Amid investigation for shagging city employees, a police chief destroys evidence – then resigns before he can be disciplined Cops are great apnews.com/article/bria...

this is incredible

This is fascist eugenics as policy.

Solidarity with E. Jean Carroll and all survivors who face legal retaliation and criminal prosecution for speaking the truth. This is both remarkable and utterly unsurprising. Survivors have been jailed, retraumatized, harassed, and sued into silence for far too long.

It's not rocket science. It's just values.

"The mayor will announce on Tuesday that New Yorkers who are considered “extremely low-income” — no more than $50,880 for a family of four — will pay a quarter of their income on rent, down from 30%, on city-subsized apartments."

A masked man in an armored vehicle, dressed as if he is in the middle of a war zone, training a weapon on unarmed protestors. This is simply incompatible with democratic expression.

Not a drag queen. Not an immigrant. Not a trans person. A white “religious” man who claimed he could cure people who were gay. They accuse others so you won’t suspect them. Never forget it.

Being neurodivergent or disabled can make interacting with police downright dangerous. In fact, half of all US police violence is enacted on people with disabilities, mainly disabled people of color. Source: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... (1/2)

There are people in our society who realized, decades ago, that you can restore white supremacist systems with plausible deniability if you wrap them in a computer algorithm and pay a journalist to say it's fair.

I was skeptical, but here's the Armed Forces own paper about it. taskandpurpose.com/news/arlingt...

‘While some cling to the promise of an AI “revolution,” the cost of adoption is proving a stubborn bottleneck. These developments also suggest that the economics of replacing human labor with AI may be more complicated than some early forecasts originally implied.’ fortune.com/2026/05/22/m...

Since the Trump administration doesn’t track how many children have been separated from their parents by immigration detention, a Brookings report tried to calculate it — and it cited ProPublica’s reporting.

all americans are created equal which is why equality demands that we obliterate all representation for 40 percent of the people of the state

I don't think it's hyperbole to call this child abuse.

💯

This is terrifying.

Google announces plan to kill the internet.

NEW: More Than 100,000 American Kids Have Had a Parent Detained in Immigration Sweeps, Report Estimates Far more American children have likely been separated from their parents during immigration sweeps than previously understood, according to a new Brookings report.

In November I broke this story about Andrew Paul Johnson, a pardoned J6er who molested children and used the promise of reparations to bribe his victims silence.

Absolutely horrified at this planned study from my own institution: www.404media.co/researchers-... >>

We need more coverage that isn't breathless hype for "AI in medicine"

Alligator Alcatraz is closing after one year and wasting $1B to house 1400 immigrants. That's an eye-popping $714,285 per occupant. That's all because Trump felt it would have great broadcast value.

Seems at least worth pointing out that personal financial transactions (while president) could not possibly count as an "official act" immune from criminal prosecution.

And disability is a HUGE contributor to the (you guessed it, racialized) school to prison pipeline. Here's one (of many) reads on the racial disparities at work here.

Data centers are responsible for a 76% increase in the cost of electricity in the largest US grid www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Contrary to what many think, banning books doesn't boost sales or interest in that book. It makes the books much harder for people to get. And almost always, it leads to erasure of marginalized stories, especially Black & brown and queer people.
