So an officer has his phone out recording obviously distracted, shoots a woman and calls her a “f’ing Bitch” and they think that HELPS the case?!?

National Catholic Reporter:

who’d have thought a week ago that in a week we’d want 2025 back

Melt, and no more be seen

Five years ago.

They are NOT complying. They are legally required to release all of the documents.

Grrrrr.

Agree and will add that today’s “fighting didn’t work and I hope the GOP will negotiate with us on healthcare” press junket is messaging malpractice. All they had to say today was “we had to stop fighting BECAUSE they wouldn’t negotiate on healthcare and people were suffering real concrete harm”

KFF finds partisan split on Tylenol Most Republicans (56%) say they think it’s definitely or probably true that taking Tylenol during pregnancy increases the risk of kids with autism. Most Dems (86%) say it’s definitely or probably false. Multiple medical associations have said there’s no link.

MAGA, MAGA.

What a weird-ass Rapture. Only the Constitution disappeared.

All The Demands Trump Is Making Of The Smithsonian theonion.com/all-the...

The Trump administration has decided to destroy $9.7m worth of contraceptives rather than send them abroad to women in need.

Today's ACIP meeting is usually a time where experts come together to inform the future of vaccines. That is not what today will be. That is not what we can stand behind. The AAP will continue to recommend its own childhood vaccine schedule -- just as we have since the 1930s

I know there’s a lot going on right now but don’t lose sight of the escalating conflict in the Middle East. This is serious, not just regional posturing. It has the potential to affect us almost as much as anything happening here at home. And this inept administration is clueless how to handle it.

Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

This is outrageous.

It's much faster to make sh*t up than doing science the right way.

A bunch of papers cited in the government MAHA report are apparently fake. www.notus.org/health-scien... ‪@emilykennard.bsky.social‬ @margaretmanto.bsky.social‬

Making America much less Healthy

republicans are disappearing people under the guise of fighting antisemitism and can’t even pretend to give a fuck when a jewish governor’s house gets firebombed on passover

NEW: Elon Musk's DOGE guys are dismantling the Wilson Center, a key foreign policy research group funded by private money and Congress. Its head, Mark Green, a former GOP Congressman, resigned after DOGE entered this week. Our @nytimes.com story: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/u...

The U.S. has ended financial support for family planning programs in developing countries, cutting ~50 million women off from access to contraception. One woman who has run family planning programs for decades told me: "Women will pay for this with their lives." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/01/h...

Man neck-deep in mud rescued this morning along Mt. Vernon Trail

Now to get the Administration to comply.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

As an alum, I fully support this.

Zelensky is being forced to plead with Trump that his own country, which has spent so much blood and endured so much horror, is allowed to be at the negotiating table about its own future. That's where we're at- a return of great power politics. Putin's best week in years.

There is no limit to MAGA performative idiocy.

Rumors that Elon Musk has bought a Super Bowl ad spot to promote disinformation on USAID. Excellent video here on the good USAID does in tbe world and the role it plays in promoting US Interests. open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

The Trump administration’s decision to impose a far-reaching freeze on U.S. foreign aid programs has thrust humanitarian and development organizations into crisis, prompting the layoff or furloughing of thousands of workers and mass panic as aid groups warn they may have to shut down.
