🔥This is an incredible result! A quick concession is of course in Hungary’s best interests. If Magyar also has a 2/3 majority (as looks likely) then he’ll have full control to remove Fidesz corruption. Finally- it’s a humiliation for Trump & Putin - and a boost for Ukraine.

Orban concedes defeat. The support of Trump, Vance, Putin, Lavrov, Weidel, Milei, Le Pen, Fico, Babis and many others could not overcome Hungarian anger at a stagnant, corrupt regime www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Yes, and we must insist on a constitutional conference to amend the constitution to establish a truth and reconciliation committee that nullifies all of these pardons.

1/3. Very helpful summary in preparation for the epochal Hungarian elections tomorrow. See also essays by Anne Applebaum and Lászlo Gendler and commentary by Kim Scheppele mikegalsworthy.substack.com/p/why-an-orb...

Kennedy canceled $500 million in mRNA research and announced no new mRNA projects will ever be initiated—killing the technology that produced the fastest vaccine rollout in human history.

SPLASHDOWN CONFIRMED! There we go, for the first time in over half a century, humanity has reached the Moon and safely returned. A small step in a journey of a thousand miles. Congratulations to the crew, NASA, and everyone involved 🍾

💥Heroes’ Square in Budapest is hosting the “anti-regime grand concert,” with tens of thousands bracing for the end of Viktor Orbán’s rule on Sunday. Chants of “Russians go home” are heard, while performers mock Viktor Orbán and Péter Szijjártó as servants of Vladimir Putin. 📸 444.hu

boy do I miss when you could go on the internet and see, in chronological order, posts made by people you followed

Remember when we used to have experienced seasoned diplomats with decades of knowledge and experience in a specific region involved in sensitive and complex negotiations with other countries over important details? Seems like a better plan than Vance, Witkoff and Kushner.

The 25th Amendment (Section 4) should be invoked. This madman must be removed from office before he does more harm to the world. www.law.cornell.edu/constitution...

To military personnel: To follow orders or to commit war crimes is not a dilemma. It's a legal and moral choice.

Here's the number for the congressional switchboard. Please call your reps and senators. This man needs to be removed from office now. (202) 224-3121

Wouldn’t it be cool if the enthusiasm and inspiration brought to us by NASA changed everything? It is so obvious to us all that the Trump regime is unsustainable, hateful and deeply ignorant. We can overcome them. Artemis 2 has made me feel so much hope for goodness and goodwill. 🚀❤️

“In a sane world, Americans wouldn’t have elevated an arrogantly ill-informed and reckless man to make the gravest possible decisions for our nation. Nor would the U.S. Senate…confirm men and women deeply ill-equipped to perform their duties.” www.americaamerica.news/p/how-much-d...

Godspeed to the Artemis II crew, and congratulations to the talented civil servants and scientists at NASA who worked so hard to make this launch a success. Without their expertise and dedication, none of this would be possible.

A House Democrat is moving to block Trump’s signature from appearing on U.S. paper money and securities and we’re here for it. Rep. Jimmy Gomez introduces the bill tomorrow morning. No sitting president should be allowed to use the nation’s currency as a personal billboard.

Thank you, NASA! Watching the mean-spirited incompetence of the Department of Defense under Pete Hegseth, DOJ under Pam Bondi, and the Department of Homeland Security under Kristi Noem, and the anti-science ignorance of RFK, Jr. it's a novelty to watch a government agency act competently again.

Liftoff!

“Humanity’s next great voyage begins” Four astronauts are on their way to the Moon and, if everything goes to plan, they will travel farther from Earth than any human has before go.nature.com/418rR6i

NEW: Conservative groups have begun using Gemini, ChatGPT, xAI, and other tools to try to get books banned. “When [censors] start using these tools to take the shortcut to get books off shelves, you’re going to end up pulling so many books that tend to be the most targeted anyway."

If the Artemis II crew launch around the Moon happens tomorrow you can watch it live here www.youtube.com/live/Tf_UjBM...

Are you sensing the anti-Trump pile-on is starting? There's a new energy I'm starting to feel that hasn't been there in a long-long time. Do you feel it, too?

Greetings! I’ll update later. Here at metropolitan detention center during a no kings protest in Los Angeles. DHS just threw a chemical irritant container directly at a press gaggle.

Stephen Miller, Pete Hegseth, Pam Bondi, and others in the regime are all living in government housing at Fort McNair. If hearing this makes you think of barracks or modest ranch houses, don't.

It really is grossly obscene that the same people who block poor people from getting help with vital medicines, housing, and food—calling them freeloaders—live in mansions with free security paid for by the taxpayers. They have no shame.

Marvin Gaye playing across a crowded Trafalgar Square with people of all ages and backgrounds all dancing along in the cold sunshine of March. Magic. Just don’t tell Rupert ….#together

HAPPENING NOW: A HUGE crowd has gathered in London, England for a protest against the far right in coordination with the No Kings day protests in the US

No Kings in the City of Angels. #NoKings

“Vice President JD Vance thinks aliens are visiting earth and that they are Demons” is the most “I wish Carl Sagan were alive” moment I’ve had in a while.

Today was a signal to each other and the world that we are growing stronger in our opposition to the creeping authoritarianism in the world. We have friends and allies around the world we’ll have to cheer them on soon enough if not already. For now, they are cheering us on. Keep going. #nokings

Today and everyday, we say No Kings in America. Here's what we must do next.

They want us distracted. They want us divided. WE WON’T GIVE THEM THE SATISFACTION! #NoKings

Seattle, Cal Anderson Park - No Kings.

We’re happy to report the total count is now up to 8.1 million and still growing.

Omg! Huge shoutout to San Francisco, CA! Ocean Beach, you crushed it! 🌊

#NoKings NYC made History today 💙🍎

It turns out when you try to serve slop on a product people pay for, no one wants it. www.404media.co/disneys-open...

The United States needs snap elections.

I’m showing up for No Kings Day on March 28th because in this country, the people lead, not a single ruler. Democracy only works if we show up to claim it. Our voices carry the power; let’s use them to shape our future together.

Butchart Gardens outside Victoria, BC are incredible. We were lucky enough to catch the cherry trees in bloom.

Tangerine sunrise today on Glastonbury Tor. Have a fabulous week!

Read between the lines: they won’t raise taxes on the RICH to fund the war.

All patriotic state governors should now declare a state of emergency in their respective states, on the basis that that federal agencies operating under color of Article II are acting outside the boundaries of any plain reading of the law. Protect the People.

Nobody is talking about what’s actually happening in the Persian Gulf right now. 3,200 commercial ships are trapped. Not military vessels. Civilian crews. Carrying oil, grain, electronics, medicine. Crews are running out of drinking water. One ship contacted the local port authority and begged
