NEW: DHS received thousands of comments about the Trump administrations's expanded citizenship database. The message from officials, state agencies, organizations and individuals was clear: these changes are unlawful, a threat to privacy and voting rights and must be rejected.

More reporting confirming what we already knew, and reinforcing why it's so important that @secstatewa.bsky.social stand strong against these MAGA attacks on our freedom to vote:

The EU was created in by people who lived through WWII and saw political and economic integration as a means to bringing peace and stability to the continent. It is being opposed by Putin, Musk and the others who support Neo Nazis in Europe.

A study on 1.7 million people in Hong Kong shows superior hybrid immunity to Covid in people who got vaccinated before infection vs. people who got infected first. "Our findings are a direct rebuttal to arguments for natural immunity," the authors write. doi.org/10.1016/j.va...

it does feel like an intense societal problem that the founder of palantir, the biggest survellience company, thinks like this

I can’t make it out but you should! The only tournament in town with nice people and today is for a good cause.

lol the ACIP committee let Aaron Siri speak for some 90 minutes and cut off CDC experts and scientists off after two minutes (sometime yelling at them to shut them up). Incredible stuff.

Oh

I love how Letitia James is called a "Trump Antagonist" instead of a prosecutor doing her job bringing charges against a criminal

Vaccine opponent Vicky Pebsworth presents this slide showing that rampant vaccine disinformation has had its desired effect in reducing vaccinations. She also seems to use this as justification for creating barriers to vaccine access.

President Trump on Tuesday delivered blatantly xenophobic public remarks, which included attacking Somali immigrants in Minnesota and calling them “garbage.” Listen to "The Daily."

Wow. "It gives me no pleasure to say what I’m about to say because I worked with Pete Hegseth for seven or eight years at Fox News. This is an act of a war crime .... There’s absolutely no legal basis for it.” - Newsmax's Judge Napolitano

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders. What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

Seems like a weird thing to tweet on the day when your boss said he’d pardon someone convicted of sending 400 tons of cocaine into the US.

Stephen Miller is trying to convert the United States into a country where you are targeted by the government for torture and punishment because you’re a member of the nonwhite groups he considers inferior to himself and enjoys seeing suffering. That is what is happening.

The Lions are one of those teams that feels like a deep and prolific offense and then ARSB gets hurt and Goff gets pressured and you’re like oh, right, they might not score 10 today

Ahead of launching a war on Venezuela, the US would like to announce that no one in Venezuela should help US forces, it'd be stupid to do so, the US will denigrate you and screw you over no matter how much you help, and blame you if even one Venezuelan who also helped the US ever does something bad.

I haven't had a chance to sit down and write a proper review of Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age, but it is a genuinely a knock-out impressive visual spectacle. (And it's very, very obvious how much work, thought and care went into all aspects of it.)

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell. Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

Yep, I concede that. And maybe this is the dividing point: if you have strong moral grounds against AI, such that -- even if the tech becomes commonplace and more capable than it is now, then you still would not consider using it as a tool for opposing evil.

Bitch, AI isn't conscious you're just lonely

Council just decided to pass a new compromise amendment adopted as an emergency. That means the public will have to testify on a budget amendment they’ve never read. So we’re tapping the sign 👇👇

"Collecting that experience" is an incredible euphemism for "Asking a guy about the fact that more than a dozen women accused him of sexual misconduct"

Wall Street Journal Editorial Board: “Who decided to leave Robert F. Kennedy Jr. home alone at the Health and Human Services Department? Without adults to supervise the Secretary, he’s damaging public trust in immunizations, and now the CDC has been conscripted into his anti-vaccine campaign”

Dear @theatlantic.com social media person. It's not too late for you. You don't need to be complicit in promoting the whitewashing of this man and his deadly beliefs People will die of preventable disease because of the normalization of this man, and you need not contribute to their deaths

It's now illegal to tell people not to commit a crime

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone. Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work. Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

Trump is amplifying QAnon-coded imagery: “Tick Tock,” “Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming,” and “Time to Obliterate the Deep State.” These aren’t random. They’re cues tied to promises of mass arrests and deep-state purges, the kind of messaging used to rally his most extreme supporters.

Elon Musk donated $277 million to Trump so he could steal the federal government’s data, dismantle the nation’s infrastructure, and stop foreign aid from going to nonwhite people. It’s a quid pro quo breathtaking in scope, corruption, and damage, & completely unprecedented in American history.

Tell me you have never read Hunter S. Thompson without telling me you have never read Hunter S. Thompson.

what absolute fucking losers

So, I have read articles written by people who claim that the entire concept of modern medicine is bad, because "artificially" saving people's lives has put a stop to human evolution by letting genetically inferior people breed. Great that those folks are in charge of the CDC now.
