“Humanity has once again shown what we are capable of, and it’s your hopes for the future that carry us now on this journey around the moon.”

It’s not just Ms. Rachel. The biggest names in children’s educational programming are coming out in force to call for kids to be freed from ICE detention. Here’s “Reading Rainbow” host @mychal3ts.bsky.social outside the Dilley Immigration Processing Center.

The New York Times rolling up its sleeves to do the hard work of normalizing the idea that women should not have the right to vote.

may this define her for the rest of her life. she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired. girl, bye.

"Among young American men, the strongest predictor of support for the tradwife lifestyle was not gallantry but HOSTILITY TOWARDS WOMEN." Christian Nationalists and the Taliban have more in common than they realize: www.unwomen.org/en/articles/... www.thetimes.com/life-style/s...

Boston University’s student paper, The Daily Free Press, reports about the multiplication of pride flags on campus following the administration’s attempted crackdown on free speech.

If FDA does this, which is likely succumbing to pressure from RFK Jr, it crosses a new red line and, as far as I know, unprecedented. Lifting a ban on drugs that are injected into the bloodstream without data for safety or efficacy, so they can be compounded and further promoted to Americans.

Trump: "I don't believe in building libraries or museums…It's most likely going to be a hotel with a beautiful building underneath and a 747 Air Force One in the lobby, which is going to be a trick."

Excuse me, what did you just say? WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY??? www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video. “It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?” This lady’s response is🔥

The NY Times saves its harshest skepticism for progressives. Instead of being impressed by 3,000+ coordinated protests, NYT dismisses the value of “hitting a number” and asks if No Kings will be “a primal scream that fades into a whimper.” F off, NY Times. We'll defeat fascism w/o you. (Gift link)

Early anecdotal evidence suggests that participating in No Kings events is motivating the women organizing them to think more about what they can do to support their country’s democracy. And some of those women have decided to run for office.

I appreciate my senator for holding the line against ICE while also representing my state well with the gray suit and black shirt combination, also known as The Full Soprano

Loved hearing from @meganranney.bsky.social this morning on an ISMPP/CSE webinar on restoring trust in science. "Facts don't speak for themselves"; we need to use stories (which doesn't mean telling tall tales). I'm inspired to keep learning about #storytelling in science. #scicomm

One person in this photo deserves a 20% WNBA revenue share and it’s not me. Congratulations to the WNBPA on their historic labor agreement.

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis. My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives? So I picked up my camera 👇

What’s happening to New Braunfels ISD school libraries is NOT “normal.” Do not allow yourself to become desensitized to censorship. Take action to defend the freedom to read in your community, now! www.ksat.com/news/local/2...

Did I enjoy reading Harry Potter when it came out? Yes! I did. I read them to my children. I watched the movies and went to the theme park. Lots of us did. Do I understand those stories differently now, knowing how she has chosen to use her fortune to harm others? Yes. Absolutely.

reported ICE presence at the Mall of America today "Seen near Log Chute ride at Nickelodeon Universe. Agent wearing normal clothes, with badge in the middle of chest. He stopped a woman, asked her for US ID and raised his voice."

Stephen Miller raised the idea of ending public education funding for undocumented children in a closed-door meeting with Texas lawmakers last week, a move that would challenge a decades-old U.S. Supreme Court precedent, according to two people who were in the meeting.

Embarrassed by my alma mater and thankful for the people who work there who are stepping up for the LGBTQIA+ community and refusing to comply.

justice alito talmbout it "seriously undermines" voter confidence when a "big stash" of mail ballots arrives and changes the "apparent outcome" sir do you mean when all the votes are counted? bc it sounds like you're just describing when all the votes are counted

"If being political is what it takes to bring Gael home, or to get Deiver to his spelling bee, Accurso said, then her conscience leaves her no other choice." Read my story on her efforts here: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The Supreme Court refuses to review an odious 5th Circuit decision granting qualified immunity to Texas officials who arrested a citizens-journalist in retaliation against her posing questions to public officials. Sotomayor has an appropriately furious dissent: www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

Deep in a small village, Hyun Sook and I found this 96 year old pavilion that was built as a secret spot for locals to illegally read all the Korean literature and poetry that was banned under Japanese occupation. It's literally a Banned Book Clubhouse!

Here’s Ms. Rachel slipping into character while trying to comfort Gael, a non-verbal 5-year-old who’s being held in ICE detention with his parents. I spoke with the boy’s family yesterday. They say he’s been hitting himself. “No human being should ever go through this,” Gael’s dad told me.

This story is crazy-making. New Braunfels ISD is dramatically under-reporting the # of books removed due to Senate Bill 13 from its schools this year. In fact, this might be one of the biggest acts of censorship we’ve seen. @txfreedomread.bsky.social franklinstrong.substack.com/p/new-braunf...

More Pride flags popped up in windows on Boston university’s campus today. People are distributing them. I really don’t know where the administration thinks this will go.

This cruelty is being done in our name. Shame on this administration. Shame. 13,000 third country deportees so far. Many were ordered deported decades or even generations earlier, but no admin previously would have considered something as inhumane as this as a means of carrying out a removal.

A reporter-free newsroom isn't a newsroom, it's (at best) a content aggregator.

I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran). The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

The NY Times continues to erroneously call the SAVE Act a "voter I.D. bill." I did a deep dive into its history and explain that ID was only added this year and is nots it core. Stop spreading GOP talking points and focus on the facts. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

As many (MAGA et al) continue to mis-remember and reframe the pandemic, this kind of research seems increasingly important. More than 150,000 uncounted Covid-19 deaths occurred early in the pandemic, a study finds www.statnews.com/2026/03/18/s... via @statnews.com

Reporter: “If you could say something to Trump, what would it be?” PA voter: “You're a worthless pile of shit.” Reporter: “How many times did you vote for him?” PA voter: “Three times. That was my bad. Apparently I'm an idiot.”

This is astonishing—a rhetoric steeped so deeply in New York's ethnic history, in grass-roots urban progressivism, in the immigrant experience in the United States. It's not "you should be in solidarity with others," it's "you always have been, we all always have been."

I’m not surprised, but there are levels of depravity one never adjusts to. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/h...
