So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

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.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

She is absolutely batshit crazy and needs to be impeached yesterday.

BASH: Is this measles outbreak a consequence of the administration undermining support for vaccines?

DR OZ: I don't believe so. Secretary Kennedy has been advocating for measles vaccines

BASH: Oh, come on

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story.

An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

Exactly right.

Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.

Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.

Every possible angle.

HAVE YOUR STATE POLICE ARREST THEM!!! For God’s sake, you have the state police and the National Guard. Mobilize both to their fullest extent and protect your citizens and arrest ICE agents!! Enough is enough.

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers.

I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask:

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

next reporter who interviews stephen miller should ask him point blank if his goal in minneapolis is to kill more americans

Maybe it’s just the Humanities professor in me, but let it be noted that events of today (ahem) have demonstrated the value of being able to assess a large volume of qualitative data and do careful textual analysis with deep attention to context.

Remember, Prasad began his campaign against the pediatric COVID vaccine months before there was a pediatric COVID vaccine.

Here he is spreading fake numbers about the death rate and treating vaccine side effects worse than death.

“The fact that children in 2025 are suffering from diseases that should have been consigned to history is not just a public health failure. It is a moral failure. Access to vaccines is not a privilege — it is a human right.”

Or, at least, it should be

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

DNA from Napoleon's 1812 army identifies pathogens likely responsible for the army's demise during retreat from Russia In the summer of 1812, French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte led about half a million soldiers to invade the Russian Empire. But by December, only a fraction of the army remained alive. Historical records...

Might be time to update your priors; it might not have been typhus that tore through Napoleon's army on the Russian campaign but rather two other fevers—one foodborne, the other from body lice

Karoline Leavitt is a complete disgrace.

Her violent and unhinged rhetoric is going to get someone killed.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.

Good to know Chris Pratt is an ignorant douchebag who is in favor of children dying of measles and cancer research being cut. Never gonna see another movie of his again.

Federal agents violently detained a food delivery driver as he emerged from a D.C. coffee shop Saturday morning.
