I live a few blocks from Liam's School. These fundraisers are helpful and much appreciated.

This is appalling: “Case counts [of measles] in 2026 are more than double what they were the same period of 2025 and more than ten times what they were in 2024.” 4/1/26 … 1/ www.nbcnews.com/data-graphic...

Investigations like this require a tremendous amount of work and resources, especially for a tiny indie newsroom. As the bigger fish now continue to cite our work for being first, keep in mind we aren't doing this for awards or recognition. We do it because they invaded our community:

I know it's politically imprudent to talk about impeachment. But for crying out loud it's a moral imperative. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/o...

One thing that puzzles me about this is its lack of originality. How many pieces has @theatlantic.com run at this point making some variation of this argument? Do its editors have even the tiniest bit of intellectual curiosity about the various counterarguments/challenges to it that have been posed?

“This is, quite obviously, a subject that [Defense Secretary Pete] Hegseth and the White House want to keep under major wraps,” said the defense official, who spoke to The Intercept on the condition of anonymity. trib.al/whDuCqH

Piecemeal world war, to borrow a term from Pope Francis. Piecemeal world war coalescing.

There was a legal strategy to overturn Roe v. Wade, and a social movement to stigmatize and demonize abortion. Amy Littlefield tells the story of how that movement triumphed—for now: https://bit.ly/3Oc3CB6

Columbia Heights is the suburb where Liam Ramos lives, a small working-class highly diverse community just savaged by ICE during its occupation. There's a mutual aid fund and benefit this Saturday. 1) Please come if you're local. My band is playing a set and we're not bad! 2) Please share & donate.

Crucification? I mean... Okay. Sure.

it's really astounding and demoralizing so see this easy victory - we really did largely banish the r word from normalized discourse - totally lost because some billionaires on twitter wanted to use it

Why wait?

Soon

Not sure whether this is apt or terrible timing but here’s the official cover of my book due out with @uncpress.bsky.social W. Hodding Carter III imprint this fall. 🎉

Trump: "We’re fighting wars. We can’t take care of daycare.... Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things.... You can’t do it on a federal [level]. We have to take care of one thing: military protection." www.thedailybeast.com/trump-admits...

🇮🇷 CORRUPT HEGSETH Secretary of War Pete Hegseth attempted large defense stock investments weeks before US attacked Iran. According to the Financial Times, Hegseth asked his broker to make a multimillion-dollar defense investment weeks before the Iran strikes began The investment didn't go

doppelgangland

The vast majority of Americans are birthright citizens. Unless you naturalized or were born abroad to an American parent, you are a citizen because of the 14th Amendment. There is nothing constitutionally distinct about Americans born here to non-Americans. We are all literally equal citizens.

Continuing to pummel Iran's infrastructure is going to create a humanitarian disaster

They cared a lot about what Europe was supposedly doing when it came to trans people in Skrmetti.

This sucks. I've been following this guy's running videos on Instagram. His "run every street" project was so cool, and he genuinely loves this city.

"One agent is married to a TV news anchor who reports on the Border Patrol. Another, who also engaged in a gun battle with a school shooter in Uvalde, Texas, has posted in an online gun forum with thread titles like 'Whipping Haitians.'" amazing work by @awinston.bsky.social + Maddy Varner

But better, according to the president, we pay for this expensive fireworks show (which is killing civilians) than daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, etc

This should be broadcast, streamed, and read aloud by Democrats between now and the Second Coming. Trump says all federal programs—Medicare and Medicaid by name, Social Security by implication—must go. It’s astounding. It’s political poison. Make Republicans drink it.

Don’t worry guys in like 8 hours he will explain how Iran is coming to the table and brought him a bunch of presents or whatever But then do worry because in like 16 hours he will cancel that But then don’t worry Monday morning- peace again

It’s unlikely to happen but I think we need Constitution 2, which is just a new constitution that sets out what everyone understood the Constitution to be just before, say, Lopez

The CDC has paused testing for rabies and pox viruses. It's vital we keep a close eye on them as rabies is virtually 100% fatal without vaccination, and smallpox killed hundreds of millions (we really don't want a similar virus returning). Losing track of these viruses is a recipe for catastrophe.

Just my opinion, but there should be a constitutional remedy for when the President of the United States addresses the nation and everything he says is either pure lunacy, an unhinged claim or a blatant fabrication. Just like the 25th amendment, but real.

Always fine to call or write your reps about what you thought about this. Contact them everyday. Let them know how you feel.

THIS IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL Not only is there NO EVIDENCE of significant fraud tied to mail in voting The Constitution provides that only Congress and the states have the power to regulate the time, place and manner of elections But-if there was fraud We know who committed it #TrumpVotedByMail

I am finding it weird how Trump starts talking about replacing officials after impeachment articles are introduced.

Or we could choose not to fight wars with no purpose prompted by the whims of one man.

the 14th Amendment was meant to be universal: all those born in the United States are citizens of the United States. All. It’s one of the moral victories of Reconstruction we still have.

The cover of JD Vance’s book about converting to Catholicism features a Methodist church in rural Virginia. It only gets worse from there.

I think Trump just called for pulling the federal government out of Medicare and Medicaid. Seems like a pretty big deal.

Excuse me while I propose my very rational plan of airlifting hundreds of soldiers into a heavily fortified area to deploy explosives to get to the underground chambers where the enriched uranium is stored and then safely remove it- how will I do that? Oh yeah I’m going to build a runway

Dear Yale Law students: If and when one of your professors urges you to abandon legal craft and hard work and to "change the subject" lest you legitimate the judiciary, go listen to Cecillia Wang's magnificent oral argument today. You'll realize straight off which model to follow.
