This is the worst spring for college graduates since the depths of the Covid pandemic. Their diminished job prospects are colliding with questions over whether A.I. is destroying the kinds of roles they have long sought. nyti.ms/4t6Euuq

I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.

He's psychotic. Literally.

There's no love like Christian hate

I realize Republicans don’t want to admit this, which is why they are so crazed about passing the SAVE Act, but the reason why Dems have dramatically over-performed their 2024 results in 99% of races around the country since then isn’t because “illegals” have been voting.

Hegseth makes confident assertions that he has bombed drug border and factories, killing lots of people and injuring others. And roughly 60% of the time this turns out to be, simply put, a lie. This is consistent with what my friends at DEA international tell me:

Think voting doesn’t matter? 766 votes.

NEW: Republican senators reportedly sold the White House on a plan Monday night to pass the SAVE America Act through a reconciliation package after enacting a funding bill for most of the DHS, which has been shut down for over a month now. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Somebody is making a fortune on the war with inside information and it is grotesquely corrupt.

Italian right-wing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's crushing defeat in today's referendum on judicial reform has shattered her aura of political invincibility, and her opponents now reckon she can be toppled in a general election expected next year.

Deliberately choosing the worst people for the important jobs. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

So if Russia phones in fake threats, as they did last time, our institutions will leap into action to do what Russia wants…. This is very transparent.

🚨BREAKING: Steve Bannon suggested that President Donald Trump deployed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to major U.S. airports as part of a “test run” for using them to meddle in upcoming elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🚨BREAKING: Efforts to oppose a Trump-backed gerrymander in Missouri cleared a major milestone Monday, when pro-voting activists announced that they had logged enough signatures to put the new congressional map, which favors the GOP, to a statewide vote. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

As time has gone on I've realized there is a still quite small but now non-trivial chance that the entire Iran War is simply an insider trading operation, creating repeated black swan moments and relying on markets continued willingness to gyrate wildly in the face of absurd and predictably ...

GOP Senators John Kennedy and Ted Cruz devised this off-ramp, Kennedy says on Fox: "Senator Thune submitted that to President Trump. As is his right, he said no. ‘No deals with the Democrats.’ It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week. But the president said no deal."

A normal Congress would simply pass the bill, have the President veto it, and then override the veto

If you can, please go, and bring friends.

GEN. MATTIS: “.. Iran right now, if we declared victory, they would now say they own the strait. .. You’d see a tax for every ship that goes through. .. We’re in a tough spot, ladies and gentlemen. .. I can’t identify a lot of options.” @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Since Trump took office last year, parents of more than 11,000 children—who are US citizens—have been detained or deported by ICE. This inhumane policy gives parents little or no time to make arrangements and brutally traumatizes kids.

37 indictments, plus: Trump associates repeatedly lied about their contacts with Russians. Trump refused to answer questions about his obstruction. A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors, that anyone else who engaged in that obstructive conduct would have been indicted.

7 years ago, we learned about Bob Mueller’s conclusions. Today, there are a lot of posts on social media claiming it was a farce, or worse, a fraud. But those posts are disinformation. Here is the actual information, with links for those who want to do a deep dive. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.

The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs — including nearly two million children. The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war. Priorities.

A birth certificate AND your marriage license. If you changed your name after you got married, like the First Lady, the 'SAVE America Act' will demand you provide BOTH documents in order to prove your identity and vote in the next election if you don’t have a passport.

The “goal” of the Iran war is now reportedly to open the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war began

From the people currently pretending to be concerned about TSA funding.

Oh. So they want Obama’s nuclear deal minus Obama’s signature. Got it.

This is the way

This is why California Dems are freaking the F out. Chad Bianco is polling number 2 in the latest poll for the governor’s race. Not only has he seized more than 650,000 ballots from last November’s election, he’s an election denier and had ties to the Oath Keepers, which he acknowledged years ago.

“He did not issue a grand-jury subpoena to compel Mr. Trump’s sworn testimony. He settled for written questions…When the responses finally arrived on Nov. 20, 2018, Mr. Trump failed to respond to almost every crucial question, citing a failure of memory.” www.nytimes.com/2026/03/21/u...

Massive TSA chaos at NYC’s LaGuardia Airport today — endless lines, missed flights, pure frustration. Not an accident: Republicans are blocking Democratic bills to fund TSA while ICE negotiations continue. Travelers are suffering because the GOP won’t pass “clean” TSA pay. ✈️😡

Not once does this story mention that offering a federal job in exchange for a political favor is a crime

A 13-year-old girl tried to take her life by cutting her wrists with a plastic knife from the cafeteria after guards took away drawing materials, and was put into isolation without seeing a doctor. The teen was deported to Colombia after nearly two months in confinement

BREAKING: 49 Senate Republicans just VOTED DOWN our simple bill to pay TSA workers. Republicans have now blocked TSA pay SEVEN times. It’s a slap in the face to the men and women who have been working without a paycheck for weeks.

“Bianco said the investigation had ‘absolutely nothing to do’ with his campaign for governor.” What horseshit. www.cnn.com/2026/03/22/u...

"It's a moral injury." Listen to Marine Corps veteran Nick Borrelli at our Veterans for the Desert Roundtable explain the deep, personal impact that selling off public lands would have on the veterans who sacrificed to defend them.

It is going to take decades to undo the diplomatic damage this man has done.

There’s one thing stupider than spending 1.5 trillion to lose a war to a middle power in the Middle East, and that is spending 1.7 trillion to do so.

Washington DC is not the President’s personal real estate empire. Our public buildings belong to the people. That’s why I introduced the Federal Facilities Protection and Oversight Act—to protect our historic federal buildings and ensure no president can demolish or remake them on a whim.
