MeidasTouch: What do you make of this $1.776 billion fund— Gavin Newsom: It’s a criminal enterprise. It’s not just corruption, it’s not just graft, it’s a full-on criminal enterprise and it needs to be shut down.

There is not a single insurrectionists MFer who beat a cop that should get a penny of our money. Not one. And the people making this decision will all be appointed by Blanche and will meet in secret. This is an impeachable offense by Blanche.

Trump’s greed may finally be his undoing. While Americans struggle with rent and groceries, the White House has become an insider trading desk with a gold-plated “For Sale” sign out front. No leadership just corruption at industrial scale. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/AUr6u4g33R66...

Astonishing that the Attorney General of the United States has put the DOJ's name on a fictional "settlement" to rip off taxpayers and pay billions to Trump, his family, and his friends.

Oh. My. God. This is despicable.

They aren't predicting fraud; they’re scheduling it. They’ve already written the script to call you a cheat before you even cast a ballot. Why? Because they can’t build, they can only tear down. Go to your local board of elections and learn the process to shut the lies down.

U.S. intelligence says Iran remains far stronger than Trump claimed. Classified assessments show Iran has restored access to 30 of 33 missile sites along the Strait of Hormuz and retains roughly 70% of its missile launchers and stockpile, per NYT.

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

The one other thing I would say: I’ve never seen a better example of how NOT to do public health & infectious disease communications Bhattacharya broke literally every single rule of Comms 101 & we’re going to be using this interview for teaching purposes for generations Utter train wreck 🤦‍♂️

Everything about this article!! The majority of scientists see lack of political will and strong corporate interest as the main reason of neglect of this issue bound to displace 2 billion/every 4th human and put many more in existential danger.

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare -Universal healthcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

Every fucking word of this.👇

Really wish some person or org could make 17-year-old 5-star football recruits understand the potential political power they hold by simply refusing to go play In states that disenfranchise black voters.

The Iran-driven energy shock is adding urgency to South Korea’s push to cut its reliance on imported fossil fuels, giving President Lee Jae Myung momentum to push his clean-energy agenda.

What kind of person makes the decision to lock up a 9 year old and her mum for 4 MONTHS in a concentration camp just for going to Disneyland? Every layer of the #TrumpRegime is just pointless evil. This achieved nothing, except trauma. Cruelty just for the sake of it.

I am begging people looking to make major donations to universities to either 1) care as much about academics as they do sports, or 2) make unrestricted gifts instead. Signed, A faculty member at a university with brand new athletic facilities and crumbling teaching and research infrastructure

Notice that the Trump regime is not just blaming one violent person for what happened Saturday night. It’s blaming 8 million peaceful “No Kings” protesters as well as you and me posting peacefully on social media. Trump isn't opposed to violence. He's opposed to resistance.

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces. Equals 10 nuclear reactors Reduces heat island, shades cars The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight. Why aren't we doing this?

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

Most Americans know what it would take to fix our broken country - Abolish Citizens United - Outlaw foreign influence - End the electoral college - Tax the oligarchs - Reestablish rule of law - Strict separation of church & state It’s whether we have the courage to change our self-destructive ways

📌MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.

“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”

the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system

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.

"There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us," write @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.

So glad to see someone so beautifully articulate what I think about almost every day….

Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”. This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

EXCLUSIVE: “The [State] Department is actively preventing experienced, cleared, available officers from helping American citizens in crisis,” a group of nearly 250 mostly mid-career and senior State Department foreign service officers told lawmakers. theintercept.com/2026/04/12/a...

The magic of the Trumpers is combining immorality with weakness.

UPDATE: Letters from Leo can now independently confirm that the meeting took place — and that the Vatican was so alarmed by the Pentagon’s tactics that Leo shelved plans to visit America. Some officials saw their reference to an Avignon papacy as a threat to use military force against the Holy See.

Good morning. If you're just waking up, Trump is openly threatening nuclear war against Iran tonight, and none of the other people in power in the U.S. government appear to be willing to do anything to stop him.

The economic shocks from Trump’s war on Iran are undermining countries’ reliance on U.S. debt and fiat currency. If this snowballs, America has the most to lose. trib.al/M1TWtxS

"We were given wormy food, and when someone spoke out about it and said that the children should get better food, he was taken in the middle of the night and threatened that he and his family would be separated."

He skipped church. Dropped the F-bomb. Praised Allah. On Easter. You can’t make this up. The man tweets war threats while you hunt eggs with your kids. THIS is your president, America. Wake up.

This is the sad reality. Under Donald Trump, health insurance now costs more than the mortgage for many Americans.

Honestly the lede is an all-timer.

Every part of the lily plant is deadly to cats - even drinking water that lilies were sitting in can kill them. Other popular spring flowers like tulips and daffodils can also make them very sick, but there are plenty of beautiful and safe alternatives.
