Fantastic!!

In the year of our Lord 2026, On the second Sunday of Easter, Also known as Divine Mercy Sunday, A convicted felon accused His Holiness the Pope of being weak on crime.

After Trump's latest genocidal utterances, I'm posting this again from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

I lost my SAR partner tonight. It was unexpected-ish. Hug your pups for me.

Some people get irritated but the fact is that the war on Iran is currently the most consequential issue in the world. Period. The implications are uncalculable.

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

The. Rise. Of. Cognitive. Surrender. Study finds that people who use GenAI chatbots rely on them 80% of the time, and develop almost no capacity to recognize when a chatbot is feeding them faulty information. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Oh great, more Sauer voice 🙄

JUST IN: A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to provide access to Holy Week religious services to immigrants held at the Chicago-area Broadview detention facility. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Seems sadistic to me.

More.

Family annihators

Entirely possible this ends with Iran getting $1.9 Million a ship and the United States $100k?

It is going to take decades to recover any kind of public trust in federal law enforcement, federal statistics, federal anything. And in the red states too, probs. It's sad.

This is what I try to remind myself and others as we fight our way through the current moment.

Lesson For The Future: For-Profit News Media was always incompatible with Democracy.

Yup

what if human beings with human empathy in charge of policy how would go

sometimes followed by "...the actual fuck?"

The word of the year is audacity.

Ah yes, a "patriotic press"... just what we learn about when we learn the trade. GTFOH my guy.

Her work is SO beautiful. It makes me smile every time.

A Magic 8 Ball is more reliable for getting a sense of our continued military actions in Iran than any information coming out of the Trump White House. What a deeply embarrassing moment for our country.

As I watch tornados flatten places where friends and family live for the second time in a week, I miss a functioning federal government.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, or to petition the government for a redress grievances. #firstamendment

So say we all!

My mental health would be better. I would not be buying gas masks for my reporters. And I would travel more.

This would be amazing!

Abolish ICE for love’s sake. Obstruct and overthrow this murderous regime for love’s sake. Protect the earth and its species from exploitation for love’s sake Grieve for love’s sake. Win or lose each battlefor love’s sake.

We killed schoolgirls, studying at their desks.

The Situation Room is literally a blanket fort

I don’t even know anymore. War, the senseless murder of civilians, pedophiles in power, just a whole lot of fuckshit.

there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true

People need to understand that one of the reasons they struck today, rather than next week, is bc the House is planning on a vote early next week. Trump had to shift dynamics of that vote.

This is amazing. And sad. Too many good journalists are being run out the door. They'll still find ways to tell the truth. The truth is never handcuffed. The truth will not be silenced, no matter where you want to aim your reporting.

He is a national treasure.

We will have to invent new words to describe their brand of sociopathy. We've gone through all of the words that adequately express their callousness, depravity and soullessness.

Part of the problem here is a long-standing issue of mine: The public gets a huge benefit from beat journalism—but the journalism industry does not, by and large, recognize beat journalism for its value or when it comes to awards and prizes. Those go to investigations and "one big thing" features.

He is the best!!!

what do you get a guy that has everything except accountability for his many crimes?

Vance is justifiably upset that Gu is representing China’s oppressive authoritarian regime instead of the United States’ oppressive authoritarian regime

Abolish 24/7 news. (Seriously)

Which is why in our little public media newsroom, we are committed to covering all of it.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

Teaching parents to ignore their children's developmental needs and to hurt/shame/control them absolutely lays the groundwork for doing this to other people. And being willing to blame victims instead of abusers, since they themselves are locked into defending abusive parenting as good and godly.

One big point here: There are a shit-ton of famous people. But just as important people like Marimar are making the govt pay for daring to accuse HER of being the terrorist in the shooting she survived.

Breaking on MSNOW right now: the DOJ is tracking the search histories of Congresspeople in the unredacted Epstein files, and Pam Bondi is using those search histories in her Burn Book today. This is surveillance of Democratic lawmakers as the review the Epstein files, and it is chilling.
