"Dear America" letters from people who work at the besieged US Department of Housing and Urban Development: dearamericaletters.org

“He cheated on the golf course. He cheated on his taxes. He cheated on his wives. He cheated the business contractors he stiffed. He tried to cheat in the 2020 election. And now he’s trying to cheat on the 2026 midterms - because he knows he can’t win.”

"There is no justification for a regressive system in which the super-rich contribute less than the rest of us," write @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social.

Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater. This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning. Never doubt your power to change the system.

Jim Jordan is commenting on Eric Swalwell's sexual misconduct allegations. Jordan was assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State while team doctor Richard Strauss sexually abused at least 177 athletes. Multiple wrestlers testified under oath they told Jordan. He did nothing. He was never charged.

BERNIE: “The time is long overdue for members of Congress to listen to the American people and end US military aid to the extremist Netanyahu government.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

THE SENATE IS VOTING ON THE BOUNDARY WATERS RIGHT NOW! Tonight, while most people are watching TV or putting their kids to bed, the U.S. Senate is taking a vote that could permanently end protections for one of the most beloved wilderness areas in America.

I will not be lectured about Swalwell — or anything, really — by anyone who still supports Donald Trump after he was found liable for sexual abuse. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Last week the @npr.org team interviewed our researcher @godin.bsky.social about the obstacles faced by those looking for open source information on the Iran-Israel-US conflict and why the development of new tools is important within this space: www.npr.org/2026/04/10/n...

It is not a conspiracy anymore.

Seriously, you blocked responses? Heres your correction, junior. @newlondonboy.bsky.social

If there's a draft, draft the gun owners first.

I think this is my favorite.

We can't keep looking away from his emotional and cognitive issues. The attack on the Pope was the beginning of a full night of melting down. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Let’s end tonight on a high note from Coldplay

One of my cartoons in Monday's Metro

Chaska MN residents have been protesting every weekend for over a year now.

Congratulations to Péter Magyar on a decisive election victory in Hungary. The Hungarian people have chosen a new path. We are ready to work with you, and our European allies, to deepen our cooperation in trade, defence, and security.

I’ll have what Hungary’s having.

ABOLISH ICE AND DEFEND HUMAN DIGNITY. NO HUMAN BEING SHOULD SUFFER IN DETENTION. IMMIGRANTS DESERVE FREEDOM, RESPECT, AND SAFETY. STAND WITH THE PROTESTERS AND SPEAK UP FOR JUSTICE.

When CITIZENS VOTE in MASSIVE NUMBERS, the FACIST and AUTOCRATS LOSE. It happens every ELECTION that sees MASSIVE TURNOUT. This is why the MAGAt’s are so DESPERATE to deny AMERICANS the RIGHT TO VOTE for as many as possible

Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal. Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November. It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).

Is music right for you ?

I love to think that Stephen Colbert will make so much money off his LOTR movie, that he initiates a hostile takeover of CBS in 4 years... And takes down Morgoth!

Wow!

It's a new day, my friends! My first post-surgery scan came back clean. After being diagnosed 9 months ago, I'm now cancer-free. The experience definitely reaffirmed what I understood in the abstract but didn't always demonstrate: tomorrow isn't promised. Very grateful. 😊🙏 Have a great day!

I hate when fantasy films I made a long time ago begin to come true in real life.

You all have that “friend”. The one you don’t trust. The one who covets your stuff and is always asking to borrow money. The one constantly pulling you into their toxic drama and getting you in trouble. The one you should have walked away from years ago, but you feel bad coz they’d be all alone.

New in PN: A regime of idiots — A complete inventory of Trump stooges "The downside of Trump’s reliance on sub-mediocre stooges is they amplify his own stupidity & terrible judgment. Dumb stooges inevitably emulate his sadism & laziness, leading to a govt marked by sociopathology on a grand scale."

When a sitting president threatens the Pope and the Vatican, it’s way past time to go!

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations: Alphabet: 8.01% AT&T: 4.6% Meta: 3.57% General Motors: 3.09% Amazon: 1.37% Exxon Mobil: 1.31% Disney: -1.57% CVS Health: -3.88% Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5% This is what a rigged system looks like.

The more I think about the 70,000 ICE incarcerated without due process the more I think we are underreacting. People are literally trapped inside for profit prisons. We need to do something.

I feel like this should be a bigger story. 👀

Just a reminder to Congress: Any time you send soldiers to another country to start bombing shit and shooting at shit and killing the people of that country, THAT IS A WAR. If your President is DOING WAR without Congressional Approval, THAT IS A CRIME AND HE NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE.

In a more civilized society these two people could never appear in public again without being spat on for having this ghoulish subhuman discussion.

Markey: "They were planning an actual genocide -- a destruction of a civilization. That's why Trump should be impeached, that's why Democrats should file impeachment articles against Trump, that's why the 25th Amendment to remove me should be invoked."

Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿

This is the type of energy we need.

Witkoff and Kushner mean that there is a real estate grab in the works.

The "moral" bar for Iran is, at most, ground level. DJT and his talking sock puppets' bar is in a deep furrow beneath it. I'm glad I don't have her nerve in a tooth.

I often wondered if they played dumb to appeal to their base, who are incredibly dumb. When they declared war on Iran, it became clear they truly are dumb. Now Iran has them by the straits and they have no way to save their dumb faces.

If Trump does give an order to attack civilian targets that have no military value as a means of collectively punishing the Iranian people - and make good his threat to begin a genocide - Marco Rubio should resign and the military must refuse the order. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

SPACE DUST IN MY EYE GODDAMMIT
