Highly talented professionals including doctors, professors, etc. are caught up in this unprecedented and unnecessary mess. It is hurting our country.

Pollution levels in Paris after 10 years of advancing sustainable transport.

Incredibly sad. 😢. We need to do more to stop shootings like these.

Pathetic attack on the Pope by Trump.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio at UFC in Miami tonight as diplomatic negotiations with Iran fail (Julia Demaree Nikhinson/AFP via Getty)

By abandoning the JCPOA and then once again by starting this war, Trump has completely negated and inverted the incentives the Iranian regime once had to negotiate with us. ...

Joe Kernen comes close to having a coronary on air as Pete Buttigieg dogwalks him all over the Squawk Box studio about Trump's economic mismanagement and inflation

Buttigieg: "For the leader of this country to make a nakedly genocidal threat against another civilization as if the US was a death star that was going around blowing up civilizations, of course that is a new low ... the whole country is being judged just for tolerating that kind of thing at the WH"

March's persistent unseasonable heat was so intense that the continental United States registered its most abnormally hot month in 132 years of records, according to federal weather data. https://to.pbs.org/3Ogo4AX

Silent = complicit

After a massive U.S. honeybee die-off—about 1.6 million colonies lost and many beekeepers losing up to 60–80%—the Trump administration is moving to shut down a key federal bee research lab that historically helps identify causes and protect agriculture.

If I was a member of the cabinet or Congress. I would be asking myself what I would say to my grandchildren when they asked, “what did you do when the president of the United States threatened to destroy a whole civilization?”

Honestly, perhaps the most vile words uttered by an American president. This must stop.

An Easter message that most decidedly does not embrace Christian values nor is presidential.

"We're getting more calls from even parents of college kids, or even high school. They have no idea anything is going on, and then they're getting a call from a bookie who's saying 'Your child owes me $50,000. What are you gonna do about it?,' "

Our use of fossil fuels is certainly a factor here

This was achieved with help from us humans.

biden total spend on ukraine: $180 billion the pentagon just asked for $200 billion for war in iran.

“In China, more than half of new car sales are now electric. In Nepal, it's more than 70%. As oil prices rise, residents with EVs are less vulnerable than if they had to rely on fuel.”

Gillibrand: "How they missed this was a girls' school is very concerning to me. If Sec. Hegseth did not cut the funding for this area of review by 90%, if he did not continually try to undermine the rules & procedures our service members & generals take - I think he should resign bc of this failure"

Blood of innocent children on his hands! “The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90%….Hegseth's decision to scale back those efforts meant that the U.S. Central Command, which oversees U.S. forces in the Middle East, had only one staffer assigned to civilian casualty mitigation operations.”

Errors on your credit report can raise your interest rates, block you from renting, or cost you a job. The CFPB once forced credit bureaus to fix those mistakes. Now, under this administration, oversight is collapsing and the agency is handling fewer disputes even as complaints keep piling up.

Since the 2008 financial crisis, the CFPB has returned $21B to consumers by policing predatory lenders, junk fees, and scams. Now the administration is sidelining that watchdog and turning it into what @newyorker.com calls a “zombie regulator” just as debt and financial risks are rising.

These poor kids. This family did nothing wrong except believe in the United States.

It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.

This angle of Shohei Ohtani’s grand slam is pure chills

Absolute shame that the White Sox let him go. Jason is so incredibly talented, distinct voice, sharp mind, and a genuinely good guy. During Covid, Jason even took time to record encouraging videos for any fan who messaged him. The White Sox blew it on this one.

An ICE detainee in Arizona has died of a TOOTH INFECTION after it went untreated for weeks, a local official says. He was a Haitian asylum seeker imprisoned in Florence, Arizona. @emilybregel.bsky.social reports. tucson.com/news/local/b...

This entire interview is so informative. If you want to understand the complexities of this war, and the mistakes the United States is making take a serious listen.

When the modern electric vehicle was still in its infancy, drivers worried that vehicles would need expensive battery replacements within a few years. But battery lifespans are exceeding expectations. n.pr/4r5CqBw

Got a cab near the Department of Education. Hadn’t seen the Charlie Kirk banner before.

Infringing on our rights AND wasting our money. ICE is a failed experiment. Shut them down.

Playing politics with disaster relief funding is a new low, even for the Trump Administration. Let’s call it for what it really is: a politically motivated decision that punishes thousands of Illinois families in a critical moment of need.

We'll pick it up from here. Spring Training and the World Baseball Classic are right around the corner!

Absolutely vomitous

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Not having any nuclear treaties is certainly not a recipe for safety and national security.

For the first time in more than half a century, there are no limits on the world’s two largest nuclear arsenals. https://to.pbs.org/49ZOkaW

Why the fuck did no other media member in the room stand up for @kaitlancollins.bsky.social? This has been going on forever. Trump, the coward, is constantly throwing ugly sexist insults at female reporters. When the fuck will White House media members defend their female colleagues?

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

There is no reason any of these men need any of this gear. This entire situation is not only dangerous and illegal. It is absurd and stupid. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

“The orders … loosen protections for ground water and the environment and eliminate at least one key safety role. The new orders cut back on requirements for keeping records, and they raise the amount of radiation a worker can be exposed to before an official accident investigation is triggered.”
