Trump considering deploying up to 1,000 National Guard to D.C. The number of Guard who would be assigned is still in flux, the officials say, and most of the troops would likely be pulled from the D.C. National Guard.

Trump’s move to mobilize the National Guard against Americans in DC is another telltale sign of his authoritarian ambitions. But at some point signs of authoritarianism stop being signs and become symptoms of an autocratic regime. We’re far past that point now. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/t...

Sickening. Every journalist in America should think deeply about the fact that most American politicians are willing to accept and indeed facilitate the murder of our colleagues.

Hard to even know what to sayβ€”an atrocity in so many different dimensions. What will it take for the US to stop funding this? Thinking of so many families in grief tonight.

Reality: that β€œextra revenue” is higher costs paid by regular American consumers & businesses, and the β€œtax relief” is going to the rich not you.

JD is pissing πŸ’¦ on your head and telling you it’s raining β€” and @marshablackburn is using this line also as she runs for governor.

It’s time to wake up - we are literally on the verge of losing our democracy if Donald Trump cheats his way to those seats in Texas.

US Air Force to deny retirement pay to transgender service members being separated from the service The U.S. Air Force has decided to deny early retirement options for transgender service members with 15 to 18 years of service.

The inhumanity with which this administration treats our trans servicemembers is horrifying. They should be thanked and celebrated, not forcefully removed from service.

The cruelty is the point.

Already untold thousands of creative geniuses--brilliant would-be musicians, writers, painters, filmmakers, you name it--are working as janitors, short-order cooks, agricultural workers, Amazon warehouse employees, etc., and that's the world THEY WANT! One with a class of poor, trapped workers.

Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk say human population not nearly big enough: β€˜If we had a trillion humans, we would have at any given time a thousand Mozarts’ β€œI think in a lot of these endeavors we're very like-minded,” Bezos said of himself and Musk regarding getting humans into space.

I don’t know why this incenses me as much as it does, but it does:

we very likely have a thousand plus Mozarts *right now*. But they make non-Western art in economically destitute conditions so they have to do other work to pay bills; if you cared, UBI’d be more important to you than going to space

Not to wake up and immediately be a bummer but the FBI agreeing to "track down" elected officials breaking quorum in another state seems pretty bad!

The Constitution dictates that the census is a count "all persons" conducted every "ten years." Donald Trump has no power to alter either the timing or who is counted.

It has been so wild to see Cregger’s ascent as a leading voice in the horror movie genre. I remember watching him in his sketch comedy group The Whitest Kids You Know in my middle school/high school years. It’s great to see his comedy background shine through in Barbarian and now this. Great review!

Former 'Alligator Alcatraz' worker describes 'inhumane' conditions inside In an exclusive report, NBC6 spoke with a former corrections officer who says she saw hundreds held in cages with no sunlight, backed up toilets and little access to showers.

A former β€œAlligator Alcatraz” worker says detainees are subject to β€œinhumane” conditions β€” packed by the hundreds into cages without sunlight, with overflowing toilets and limited access to showers.

I believe one of the new mRNA vaccines was expected to treat colon cancer, and another had the potential to keep pancreatic cancer from recurring. That’s what they’re taking away.

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

Crime down in every category in 2024, FBI report says Murder, other violent crimes and motor vehicle thefts all declined in 2024, according to the latest report from the FBI.

While we're told that American cities are an urban hellscape where death awaits you around every corner, the FBI just reported that violent crime was down 4.5% in 2024 and murders decreased 14.9% year over year.

This was after murders dropped significantly in 2023.

It's not paranoia. It's really not safe. Do not use anything electronic to track your period. Start carving lines on a bone you've inscribed with a glyph of the moon. Paper notebook. Tie knots in some yarn. These sysytems and people cannot be trusted.

Everything about this story is horrific:

1. The student never mentions Jews
2. The university is going to expel a student for criticizing a country over genocide
3. A Republican congressman is taking credit and implying the student is a Muslim terrorist
4. The U.S. Justice Department is involved

Wall Street Journal headline and deck: "New York Shooting Puts Mamdani on the Spot Over Policing Views: The killing of four people in a Midtown office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined."

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

Mamdani: I would say that for the former governor to have spent an entire day speaking almost exclusively about me and barely about the New Yorkers who have been killed is indicative of the very politics New Yorkers want to leave in the past.

The Cowardice of Senate Democrats Made Emil Bove’s Confirmation Possible Senate Democrats could have confirmed Biden nominee Adeel Mangi to the Third Circuit last year. They caved to a disgraceful right-wing smear campaign instead.

Emil Bove's confirmation was only possible because Democrats caved to a vile right-wing smear campaign of Adeel Mangi, who would have been the first Muslim appeals court judge, when Biden nominated him for the same seat last year. Absolutely disgraceful. Bove's confirmation is on them, too.
