WSJ: The US will provide Ukraine with intelligence to carry out long-range missile strikes on Russia’s energy infrastructure. This marks the first time the Trump administration will directly support Ukrainian strikes deep inside Russian territory.

Just the dumbest timeline.

Tony Blair's institute took $350M+ from Larry Ellison, whose company powers Israel's military tech. Ellison & Rupert Murdoch are buying TikTok—a platform Netanyahu calls a critical "weapon" in the war. Oh, and Trump just made Blair the man who'll govern Gaza. www.thenerve.news/p/tony-blair...

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

Talk about a graphic that says it all. Well done, Bulwark.

Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

Swear her in.

Kansas Republican lawmakers are circulating a petition for a special session to redistrict. The goal is to defeat the state's only Democrat in Congress. (via @kcur.org)

Yep, this. Also, corn? Canada is now exporting their corn to other countries where the the US once solidly had the lion's share. Now those countries want nothing to do with us either. 😓

Rural America gotta let some of your farmer friends know this time ain’t like the others and to get their heads out of… the ground, they ain’t checking nutrient levels. We’re fully depleted and inhaling pit meth(ane).

Trump and his minions are eyeing "wholesale destruction” of environmental science, and they may seek to use the government shutdown as the pretext. From our friends at @thebulletin.org:

I’m confused how it is despicable to ask that question. These are exactly the kinds of questions we have been begging reporters & TV hosts to ask. You see when they do get asked how sensitive they are about it. Much, much more of this. More crypto questions, Qatar, UAE, etc bsky.app/profile/atru...

The sentiment of 80+ million Americans......

"Lutnick, in a notable break with the DOJ, claimed late pedophile Epstein was 'the greatest blackmailer ever' — and may have traded the feds video of his rich and well-connected associates getting massages from young women in exchange for a controversial 2008 plea deal."

It's becoming difficult to hide that a major purpose of the Trump administration is siphoning tax revenues from Blue states and redirecting them into subsidies for Red states. At what point does this become intolerable?

This is why Republicans are spreading the lie that Democrats want healthcare for illegal immigrants

really notable how much Republican leaders like John Thune sound like mobsters right now: "Chuck Schumer is leading them down a path that's gonna be a really bad outcome for them and their constituents."

General Patton himself on the back.

Love to see this. Mayor Wu is one to watch!

Anyway, if you're familiar with the dynamic, it is impossible not to notice the way it is playing out on the national stage, with Republicans the daddy party and Democrats the mommy party. Daddy's raging, destroying, lashing out, & most political analysis amounts to ...

The Interior Department has told its staff to bring their government laptops and phones home so they can monitor updates about potential mass firings.

My heart is filled with bittersweet sadness and admiration for the end of a life truly well-lived. Rest in Power, Jane Goodall. Thank you for embodying the best of humanity. Your imprint on the planet and its creatures is indelible.

To be clear, they're filing this in cases across the board.

I believe this where that old saying ‘reap what you sow’ comes in.

Remember the last government shutdown? It was a 35 day shutdown btn 2018–2019 during the first administration. Why? It was over expanding barriers on the US/Mexico border. This time? To gut healthcare for US citizens to give money to the ultra-rich. Seems like the GOP works for them and not us.

Donald Trump and his lapdog Republicans just shut down the federal government after refusing to protect Americans from an imminent spike in health insurance costs. This is what the GOP stands for.

Trumps plans to send the military to Portland. However there’s only 1 protester outside the ICE detention center and the “blue city” appears to be very peaceful. www.sfchronicle.com/politics/joe...

Dear @apnews.com The republicans control congress. Democrats did not vote down anything. If the GOP wanted to fund the government, they could have changed the rules to pass a CR with a simple majority like they did 11 days ago to approve 48 trump appointees at once. Fix your headline.

Bold numbers here Cotton!

NEW: Sen. Tammy Duckworth is calling for Pete Hegseth to resign. "If this PR stunt proved anything, it's that the best thing Pete Hegseth can do to strengthen our military is resign in disgrace immediately."

Why are we tracking these actions? Cataloguing the Trump administration’s retaliatory actions against perceived political opponents makes clear that using criminal law against political opponents is a core part of this administration's strategy — right out of the Authoritarian Playbook.

Trump’s corruption is sprawling—& it’s past time states step in. State AGs & legislatures have subpoena power, can launch probes, publish reports, & build cases. Don’t wait for DC. Investigate Trump now & defend the Constitution before it’s too late. #RuleOfLaw www.thebulwark.com/p/state-comm...

🚨🚨🚨Newly released footage of the premeditated, politically motivated arrest of Mayor Ras Baraka. This arrest is a crime! 1/2

👇 THAT PART 👇

ICE tried to arrest a man on a bicycle in Chicago who yelled, ”Fuck Trump.” Luckily, he was too fast for them. So much for freedom of speech in the United States.

What Hegseth did today was inform an organization he’s unqualified to lead that (a) any area in which he believes he personally excels (e.g. physical fitness) is all that matters, and (b) any area in which he’s deficient (leadership, morality, ethics, record, experience, intelligence) is immaterial.

Not sure that the military needs lectures from a makeup-wearing TV host and a senile draft-dodger

Trump: “I'm going be meeting with generals and admirals and with leaders, and if I don't like somebody, I'm gonna fire them right on the spot.”

CHICAGO. SERIOUSLY, THIS IS THE NEW NORM IN THIS COUNTRY? GANGS OF MASKED OFFICERS WALKING AMONG US? READY TO SINGLE OUT ANYONE WHO LOOKS WRONG?
