ICE has begun detaining my neighbors in South Burlington, Vermont 😞
My latest for @thenation.com. For those of us in healthcare, public health, science resisting is a duty born of our commitment to serve, make the world a better place. But our institutions don't make it easy. But we still have to do it in large and small ways. www.thenation.com/article/acti...
NEW: Hundreds of mental health professionals have left the Department of Veterans Affairs since President Donald Trump took office, leaving staff “at a breaking point” and some veterans waiting as long as six months for help.
Is this good? Very difficult on mobile. @keithamus.social
The MAGA agenda has always been about returning to the pre-Enlightenment era.
The pick mes are learning.
I'm beating a dead horse but it's not that there was "no plan," it's that there isn't a military solution period if Iran has been provoked into going big, short of "invade Bandar Abbas"
The plan is
-don't do a war with Iran if you don't have to
-if you do then terminate it as quickly as possible
Facebook post by Nekima Levy Armstrong: "Friends, A Breaking News headline just appeared in the Star Tribune, claiming that the national Target boycott ended today. This is false. The writer of the story, Carson Hartzog, is fully aware that the Target boycott was launched in Minneapolis on February 1, 2025. I have spoken to her several times since then, yet she failed to reach out to me, Jaylani Hussein, or Monique Cullars Doty, the three founders of the national Target boycott for the story. Carson even used the photo from our press conference that includes my daughter, Assata Joy and Ms. Rosemary Nevils, an elder in our community, to try to add legitimacy to a bogus story. I am once again disgusted by the Star Tribune and their attempts to minimize and erase the voices of our community. The nationwide Target Boycott is not over, unless and until Target reverses its decision to rollback Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, as we said from the beginning. “Pastor” Jamal Bryant does not speak for us or our community and has zero authority to end the nationwide boycott of Target, a company that is headquartered in Minneapolis. Please don’t believe the hype and these attempts to rescue Target from the effects of capitulating to the Trump Administration. Target rolled back DEI because of Donald Trump. They donated $1 million to the Trump/Vance inauguration committee. Target also allowed ICE to stage in its parking lots during Operation Metro Surge. The nationwide boycott of Target is successful and it will continue. Please continue to shop elsewhere."
Nekima on the Target boycott.
This is so so upsetting. So Grammerly is violating the memory of bell hooks AND making AI versions of the rest of us before we're even dead. Someone tell me who to sue, not even joking.
We need reparations for ICE victims.
Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.
We're thrilled to release the #LongCovid Treatment Guide! This is a collaboration with @rthm.bsky.social to help patients & providers explore treatment options together.

We need more designated bitches.
No joke, we need to stand up for each other, stranger or not when we see this disgusting behavior.
The onus can't be on the afflicted party to remain calm while under attack.
That wasn't just bad moderator behavior. That was an atrocious violation. I am so sorry he ambushed and retraumatized you.
I hope he is fired and that you heal from this. He's a creep and a bully. And I worry for any children or animals in his life.
Sending warmth, care, and gentleness.
Even if this man was not a childhood bully, he bullied this author. Talk about violation.
It is unfair that he gets to retraumatize her in front of an audience, and that she feels the need to remain composed to avoid being called a b*tch.
Why does she have to remain professional when he wasn't?
😬
Of course. When Covid first erupted, there were extensive plans and reports that the Obama administration had prepared on pandemic preparation and mitigation. Some done with military input.
Trump had fired the person in charge of pandemic preparedness. And ignored existing plans.
Just out @propublica.org: How did the Pentagon make the horrible mistake that left more than 150 school children dead? Perhaps because it cancelled an effort to limit such harm in favor of Hegseth’s lust for “lethality.”

What a shocking story, great local news coverage, and inspiring work all around. This is what it looks like when people (and lawyers) fight back for a more just society. lataco.com/ice-rams-veh...
(Reuters) - U.S. intelligence indicates that Iran's leadership is still largely intact and is not at risk of collapse any time soon after nearly two weeks of relentless U.S. and Israeli bombardment, according to three sources familiar with the matter.

Katherine Heigl being MAGA is the most unsurprising thing

Rotflmao, Rep. Omar has such solid support AIPAC didn't even fund her challenger last cycle.
Also pretty sure the Hmong electeds know what's up and won't be fooled by her.
I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.
State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.
