A moderate geomagnetic storm could produce northern lights visible “as low as New York to Wisconsin to Washington state,” the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says.

Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx.  In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

May Iris' memory be an eternal blessing.

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

Hey @nytimes.com, I already reported this earlier this week. And the G650s you mention? I reported on those in FEBRUARY. You credit NBC News and WSJ for first reporting parts of your story. Please credit me, too.

OOP New York Times got receipts on John Roberts being like, 'I know this isn't how anything works, but a Democratic president is about to implement a policy!!' www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

One of the things I love most about NYC, and something I cherish, is walking, biking and taking the subway. It’s actually superior to being in a car whenever you have the choice.

It’s cool how the people who control the US government right now just openly take it as a personal attack when the Pope says something like “God will not reward evil men”

Teen births crashing is good!!!

If you paid taxes for 2025, you likely paid: $124 — school lunch & nutrition programs $49 — diplomacy to prevent wars $19 — USPS $19 — Federal Aviation Administration $18 — national parks and $4,049 — weapons and war. These priorities are hurting us all. We need change. #TaxDay

Science literacy rates are at an all time low

“the pope is weak on crime” has gotta be one of the funniest things any politician has ever said in history

People are asking ChatGPT things I would normally just ask a friend, parent, mentor, therapist or medical professional for or about. It takes work to build and maintain those relationships, and figure out who is the right person to ask, but the alternative is a digital tool known for lying to users.

Texas' only licensed Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu legal interpreter is now languishing in a Raymondville detention center. She’s lived in America for 35 years: www.texasobserver.org/immigration-...

Right now, more than 350,000 Haitians in the US face the threat of losing Temporary Protected Status. It is cruel, unlawful, & life-threatening. This week, we're forcing the House to vote on extending TPS for Haiti. This is good policy, good for families, & good for America.

Since Trump has trouble distinguishing what someone in the medical profession looks like, here is a picture of a lifesaving professional.

Many things are bad, but you don't have to be. You can be reliable and stable for yourself and the people you care about. Try to eat something, drink a big glass of water, and do one thing at a time, even if it's an email. I know how hard and overwhelming everything feels right now. Max loves you.

Truly remarkable how many people have told the Pope, in some way or another, to "shut up and dribble." Or corrected him on the Bible, despite their thin education on theology. Or told him to stay out of US affairs, despite him being a US citizen. The hubris is amazing.

I’ve said it many times before, what I notice on social media is people sharing regime propaganda with a sarcastic caption. I find this particular type of post to be useless at best & harmful at worst. People have been doing it for a decade & it’s gotten us nowhere. STOP SHARING PROPAGANDA 🛑

WARREN: I want to understand how slashing healthcare for families so Meta gets a $3b tax cut is a 'really good outcome for the American public' IRS CEO BISIGNANO: I don't see the two as correlated W: Those tax cuts were paid for by pushing people off their healthcare. Did you not follow that?

IT ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK IS NOT

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

We are deciding right now if we are to be a nation of concentration camps and ethnic cleansing. And there is much citizens can do!

This makes me so happy. 🌘

For all those still feeling the moon joy—Artemis II was brought to you by public schools and publicly funded science. Copy that! 👩‍🚀🚀💕 *All four astronauts went to public schools!

Provide the social safety so that grandmothers don’t have to take multiple jobs to pay for their husbands cancer treatment

Black women have the highest maternal mortality rate among all racial groups in the U.S. During Black Maternal Health Week, let us refocus on how we can provide resources and rights that help Black mothers thrive before, during, and after pregnancy. We must pass the #Momnibus

It's so funny to me that right-wingers love to pretend to love the Middle Ages and the Crusades and all that and then complain that the Pope shouldn't get involved in politics.

Instead of asking chatgpt, why not ask a librarian? You'll get real answers and they won't tell you to kill yourself.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

Cardinal Cupich: "We're dehumanizing the victims of war by turning the suffering of people & killing of children & our own soldiers into entertainment. To splice together movie cuts w/ actual bombings & targeting of people for purposes of entertainment is sickening. This is not who we are."

Genuinely depressing to me that your partner has to Doordash to raise money for your cancer treatment when you get old. What happens if you don't have a partner? Are we just working to pay a landlord and save up for a medical emergency when we're elderly?

What if we just cleared Congress of all the abusers and sex pests this week what is stopping us who cares what party they are in

NEW—I got an exclusive excerpt from a USAID whistleblower's new book that made me gasp multiple times. It details Trump's dismantling of the humanitarian aid agency & his team/DOGE's shocking ignorance to public health. 'Into the Wood Chipper' by Nicholas Enrich is out tomorrow. Read excerpt here:

I, a rabbi, am also Weak on Crime. I also wear a cute little kippah when I'm leading prayer, just like the Pope. 😂

Let’s just acknowledge that this kind of attack is foundationally antisemitic at its core

Perhaps Magyar's most important promise, and the one that certainly resonates with voters: "never again a country without consequences!" The crowd chants: "To prison! To prison!" [with the corrupt officials of the outgoing government]

Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.

We can all learn a lot from the (many young!) people of Hungary who have protested peacefully for years and who turned out in high numbers to vote their candidate and his party into power tonight! And this despite the fact that Orbán had backing from BOTH Russia and the USA! Well done, Hungary!! ✨

DAMN ❤️🧡😭💚💙💜

Sure hope the ADL is feeling good about going out of their way to defend this guy against charges of antisemitism.

you know it'd be really nice if the media started reporting on the fact that the president is genuinely out of his goddamn mind and is holding the world in a hostage situation about it

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

It's not just that Orbán losing inspires hope in other competitive-autocratic countries ruled by right-wing nationalist authoritarians. It's that his loss materially changes things in those other countries, because he's been operating as a headquarters and funding source...
