This story is WILD. Juan Orlando Hernandez, the Honduran ex-president pardoned by Trump for narcotrafficking, seemingly caught on tape in dozens of conversations (if true), discussing plans with GOP and other figures to attack left-wing governments, and saying Israel paid for his pardon from Trump.

Kind of surprised that this hasn't been bigger news. It's finals week for a whole lot of universities, and yet, Canvas (a learning/grading platform used by ~9,000 schools globally) is currently inaccessible because of a pay-or-have-your-data-leaked hack. www.insidehighered.com/news/tech-in...

happy 9th anniversary to the day we watched Zendaya fall madly in love with Tom Holland in real-time

Time for another cognitive exam.

This was a hard story to report. Newborns who don’t get a vitamin K shot are 81 times more likely to develop a condition where they bleed uncontrollably. But more and more families are declining the shot. And babies are dying. www.propublica.org/article/more...

Giuliani's at Four Seasons Medical Center?

I mean, how hard can foreign diplomacy be? How long can it really take? Seeing the results of dismantling every aspect of foreign diplomacy in real time is horrifying

Same. No softball, trampoline, etc. Ridiculous.

Feel like I've seen Credit Default Swaps somewhere before...

💯 I'm guessing JD doesn't know a lot of Martin Luther's history either.

Vote such that "do not congratulate" notes end up on Putin's desk.

Live your life in a way that Trump is "not a fan".

No. Just no. It's past time to move forward with new party leadership.

Congress can end this.

"I read the post while still in bed, a product of terrible sleep hygiene wherein there’s no separation between slumber and the terrors of the day." Marisa captured the feelings of the week perfectly.

Anyway gender was the first division of labor, women were the first oppressed class, and gender is the hierarchy that must be abolished in order for us to eliminate all others. 😇

The Pakistani Prime Minister who was the intermediary for the ceasefire tweeted yesterday that it included Lebanon

Greta Thunberg: "The President of the United States just said that a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again & no one is reacting. This speaks for itself: what the fuck is anyone even doing at this point? We have normalized genocide, total annihilation of entire people."

@durbin.senate.gov @duckworth.senate.gov

Agreed, anyone in congress who isn't doing literally everything in their power to stop this today are complicit.

Trump’s unhinged threats of violence and genocide are inexcusable.   He is a warmonger, escalating the conflict for his own profit and consolidation of power.   My Republican colleagues can't keep turning a blind eye. He must be stopped and impeached.

"What are other countries supposed to do?" I don't know, man. Maybe stop letting the U.S. use your military bases to launch strikes on Iran to start? Expel some diplomats? Cut off trade with us? Idk.

If you’ve never called your congressional reps before, do it right now.

If we can ever recover, it will take decades to rebuild what has been destroyed

the president of the United States is a madman seriously damaging the entire world

Congress can choose to end this madness anytime.

And on April Fools Day. RIP Irony.

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

Just moved to IL last year, voting in my first IL election today!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

6/ If Trump paid any attention to the Ukraine War he would have noticed how warfare has changed. But he didn’t. And he blundered. Worse, the Gulf states are running out of interceptors to stop Iranian missiles and drones - meaning that soon more oil sites will be vulnerable.

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open. Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

Yeah, but...her monthlies!

Daines: “The flood of Mexican meth...20 years ago in Montana, meth was homemade. It was homegrown.” Whomst among us doesn't yearn for days of Domestic Heroine & Meth production? Whomst?! They took our shitty factory jobs AND took our shitty illicit drug production jobs...proved better at it too.

The Senate leadership we are looking for.

😬😬😬

You guys, I'm starting to think we might not be sending it best to lead us

Kansas just invalidated the drivers licenses of every trans person in the state. They’re being told to surrender their current licenses and get new ones listing their birth sex. No grace period. Get caught driving with your now-invalid license and you’re looking at jail and a fine.

Turning 50 this year. It will run out just in time for me to apparently never retire.

i know the situation in kansas right now is dangerous and terrifying. that said, i'm hoping to speak to someone who's had their license invalidated. i will do absolutely everything to protect your anonymity and maintain your safety. i can be reached securely via signal at marisakabas.04

May the perpetrators of this bill burn in hell forevermore.

#STL Washington University in St. Louis just sent out an emergency notice that there is an armed person on the Danforth (main) campus, updates will be posted at emergency.wustl.edu

The men's hockey final was fun to watch. Almost as fun as the hockey final.

If not state run media, why state run media shaped?

If we don’t want to repeat history – then for God’s sake in this moment we better be strong enough to learn from it.

You absolutely cannot make any case that it's still possible to be pro republican party and pro democracy. The two concepts are completely incompatible.
