So many of us have spent years warning about the dangers of Christian dominionists in the U.S. government...

This really ought to be terrifying. We literally have people making decisions to drop bombs in the grips of apocalyptic fantasies.

Here's Epstein & Ken Starr yukking it up over the testimony of Christine Blasey Ford during Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing: "Questioning her is an art form. If she begins to cry, not uncommon, or fabricate damage from the alleged interaction or worse , surgical care must be the order of the day"

A woman’s ex boyfriend, who is a cop, threatens to shoot her Women are at the highest risk for being killed when they try to leave a relationship. She calls 911 for help & the Police Chief WARNS the boyfriend instead. Boyfriend opened fire on her car We aren’t angry enough.

This is between Epstein and Johnathan Fakas - I know that b/c DOJ did a terrible job redacting. Farkas is married to the US Ambassador to Malta, Somers Farkas. "i asked him about trump and russians he said maybe some truth there"

A thread of random things in the Epstein files that I think need more attention / scorn.

It’s important that Dems go on Fox to hammer this point home. Many viewers are not okay with what Trump has started, after promising no more foreign wars.

Today with @hcrichardson.bsky.social & @kim.senate.gov www.youtube.com/live/kIk8up0...

Yup, where there’s anti-trans hate, there’s hatred of Jews—and where there’s antisemitism, there’s anti-trans hatred These go hand in hand

1/5 of the world's oil goes through there. A lot of the world is about to experience an energy crisis with gas shortages and rolling blackouts. The only plus side is it may catalyze a push to renewables while crippling Saudi Arabia and the gulf states ability to buy US institutions.

"Hanging over Monday's meeting was what Iranian state media says was an airstrike that hit a girls' school in southern Iran, killing at least 165 people." Also her complicity in the trafficking of children #EpsteinFiles

BREAKING: Credible whistleblower discloses that FBI forensic experts were ordered to stand down from processing the scene where Renee Good was killed, because Kash Patel did not want Good referenced as a “victim” in the warrant.

Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicit—joining their war instead of talking them down. This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

The Trump admin (via both lawsuits & legislation) aims to purge voter rolls nationwide using its “SAVE” voter purge system, which relies on data from an SSA system that DOGE allegedly copied to an insecure cloud server, per a whistleblower. Does “SAVE” link to this allegedly insecure copy?? Anyone??

“Lying is an art, and Trump is an artist. But he is an artist of diminishing capacity; and he has now chosen to apply his art to war, a subject he finds appealing but about which he knows nothing except that he likes it.” @timothysnyder.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

“The problem here is that I’m old enough to remember what happened the last time the U.S. ventured into the Middle East without much of a coherent plan for what happens after the bombings stop.” 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 @charlotteclymer.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/charlott...

Just the dumbest newsroom decision you could make, unless you were trying to undermine your own newsroom

I’m not the world’s fourth-richest man so I don’t mean to speak out of turn here, but I think that firing your full-time foreign correspondents right before a major war might not have been a particularly wise move in terms of, you know, getting or keeping subscribers globalnews.ca/news/1165243...

Yup, I could vote absentee ballot for some things but others are up for vote in person tonight so I can't cast my vote for those. #vtpoli

A federal judge has revoked Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s ability to restrict members of Congress from entering ICE facilities. While DHS appealed immediately, others hailed the ruling as a tribute to common sense. trib.al/LzwAwPO

She was calmer than I would have been in the situation, and she was rather pissed.

yes and thank you for the excuse to share one of my all-time favorite tweets (from @longwall26.bsky.social)

One of the grossest things in the Epstein files is how he just randomly scanned the news for men accused of SA and used this money and connections to dig up dirt on victims.

North Carolina, your choice is easy.

A member of my daughter's book fair staff, who is of Mexican origin and speaks flawless English, was detained, searched, patted down by TSA for being Mexican while flying. You can't make this shit up. They found nothing suspicious of course so they let him go, but he missed his flight. SMDH

PFAS, also known as "forever chemicals," helped spur innovation. But they're also insidious to human health. https://to.pbs.org/4qRXD2m

The official White House stance on Iran appears to be "we're doing regime change and also not doing regime change so we don't have to do regime change, while destroying their nuclear program which we already destroyed, so they can never use a nuke, which they were about to do, and also could not."

NEW: A judge has restored lawmakers' unfettered access to ICE detention facilities, her third ruling to block Secretary Noem's policy attempting to limit unannounced visits from members of Congress. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

If this doesn’t make your skin crawl, I’m not sure what will…

And it is what LBJ asked his war cabinet on October 17 1967 as the 2/28 Battalion of the First Infantry was marching into a brutal ambush in the jungle 44 miles northwest of Saigon. 60 soldiers died in that battle. Tens of thousands more deaths would follow.

Totally normal things for president to say. (If the president is a dementia-ridden narcissist) When is any Republican going to stand up and say, “the emperor has no clothes?”

This is half the problem with the United States waging unnecessary wars in other places. Americans themselves have no idea how horrible and disruptive this violence is to other people, but instead only feel inconvenienced by how much it will cost to fuel their fucking SUV.

The US delegation is late.

I can't believe Matt flipping Walsh of all people is making sense here.

Just to be clear: When a judge says you broke the law “approximately 42,695 times," it's really not going well for you.

The Liberal International Order. 2026. Oil on canvas.

This description could also apply to Putin, Netanyahu or Orban Not exactly the type of people you would want to list as a comparison to a President of the United States

Gambling on war and death doesn’t just present national security risks, it also raises serious concerns about potential insider trading — presenting unscrupulous government officials with a chance to profit off the new war in Iran. These contracts are immoral. The CFTC can and must ban them.

Democrats MUST insist on a vote on an Authorization of Military Force (an AUMF) for Trump’s war in Iran. My friend @kaine.senate.gov is leading the charge on a War Powers Resolution (WPR) that I support. But it's not a substitute for an AUMF. 1/ A 🧵on the difference. It's important.

Again:

Four American service members have died and Trump is talking about his ballroom. Despicable.

One thing Bill Whitaker is gonna do on @60minutes.bsky.social is report the truth. Whoever’s in charge. Especially coming on the heels of Justice Thomas’ recent remarks about “incivility,” this report on the uniquely vicious and menacing attacks on lower federal court judges is important.

Hello! I am a trans journalist looking to speak with trans kids and parents of trans kids across the US who have been impacted by the clinic closures---please get in touch or share!

U.S. birth-dose hepatitis B vaccination coverage has dropped sharply more than a 10-percentage-point decline in ~2 years, reversing several years of progress. Approximate numbers reported: ~83–84% coverage (2023) ~73% coverage (2025) www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdi...

No. American soldiers dying in an unjustified war of choice is NOT just "the way it is." This is a disgraceful way to talk about the cost of war. This is no Commander in Chief.

Hey docs what does this look like? @jeremyfaust.bsky.social @ryanmarino.bsky.social @meganranney.bsky.social

Fun fact: Under this new set of guidelines, friends and colleagues of mine who had NEH grants to translate previously untranslated Yiddish texts lost those grants. You know, because this administration cares so much about fighting antisemitism.

By a 6–3 vote, SCOTUS refuses to review a judge-made rule that bars indigent prisoners from splitting the filing fee among themselves when filing a federal suit—even though everyone else is allowed to split that fee. These defendants were allegedly tortured. www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...
