Q: What do you tell Americans who are concerned that repealing the endangerment finding comes at a host to public health and the environment based on science? TRUMP: I tell them don't worry about it. This was all a scam. They'll have more money to spend for healthcare.

This is another very important and revealing exchange. Rep. Scanlon is making a crucial point, one well worth listening to. And she does it calmly. But Trump has created a market for obnoxious, childish defiance of Congress. The Attorney General‘s response is outrageous, even impeachment-worthy.

Our latest troop of Minneapolis Girl Scouts is close to making their goal. Just 2,000 boxes to go. They can’t safely set up cookie booths due to the ICE invasion, so we need to help them out. Order yours or donate boxes to local heroes here. Bonus: Every box you buy bums out a book banner!

Great job Bobby

Schuylkill County, PA went 70-28 for Trump in 2024. Now they have an ICE warehouse concentration camp being set up in their county. The location is 300 yards from a daycare, has no police support or hospital nearby and will bring 10000 new people into the area. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 🎁🔗

Bc I once did book publicity for two of Brockman’s authors, I dipped into the Epstein files, sickened. Was unprepared for how many connections I’d find in my focused searches. It sounds crazy because it is.

I think it should probably be a bigger story that the president of the United States is a raving lunatic

This little bottle of prosecco never made it into mimosas over brunch, but I’m keeping it chilled bc one day—maybe not today, but one day, maybe even soon—I will have cause to pop it and absolutely chug. 🎉 #hopelives #timelinecleanse

That’s right, Bros. Forget about the male loneliness epidemic. You guys can just come together and save the country.

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

If you are a person who cares about books, you’re different from Jeff Bezos. Now would be a good day to stop shopping from Amazon, permanently.

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

Queuing up Best in Show for Friday night movie night w the kids (who only know Catherine O’Hara as Kevin’s mom). I just loved her in everything! Thanks Queen for all the laughs, and RIP, Bebe. 💕

I’m so grateful to writers every day, but especially so today to those who’ve braved the Melania film—and survived to skewer it. Thank you for the much needed lols.

Hello there “we have coffee at home” crowd. Please note a 12 oz bag of Starbucks—to make coffee at home!—is now $19. (Curious MAGA isn’t posting grocery store receipts anymore.) #thankstrump

I love this spectacular Ruffed Grouse Pennsylvania resistance bird by Jen Rand ( @jenrand.bsky.social ). The star is a nod to the Quaker tenet of nonviolence, and the style harks back to PA Dutch folk art.

Walz: "I don't care if you are conservative are flying a Donald Trump flag, a libertarian 'Don't Treat on Me,' a Democratic Socialist -- this an inflection point. If we cannot all agree that the smearing of a citizen and besmirching everything they stood for -- someone has to be accountable."

Minnesotans are showing the soul of the United States to the world.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti, the man fatally shot by federal agents in Minneapolis on Saturday, was a U.S. citizen with no criminal record, an official said. He was a registered nurse who worked in the intensive-care unit at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis. nyti.ms/4t3ekJW

Incapable of understanding how "abolish ICE" was silly but arresting 5 year olds is public policy

In addition to *everything* wrong w all of this, have these ppl never seen an origin story? Who do they think this little boy—all these children—will grow up to fight against now? In stories, they’re making heroes who will take down the evil empire.

Don Weise was working at Cleis Press when I was managing A Different Light Bookstore in San Francisco. He'd stop in frequently to chat & became friends. We moved to NYC around the same time & ended up at the same publishing house, where he somehow convinced Carrol & Graf to publish gay books. 1/7
