Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

Trump Looking for Other Countries to Help Him Defy Deportation Ban Donald Trump isnโ€™t satisfied with just sending people to El Salvador, it seems.

Despite wrongly deporting a man to El Salvador as a result of an โ€œadministrative error," the Trump administration is now in talks with several more countries to find a new place to deport immigrants.

Goldberg said the level of detail in the targeting package that he received via Signal was down to the *names of individuals* to be killed.

Thatโ€™s the good stuff that includes all kinds of sources and methods and never should have been outside a SCIF.

Iโ€™d be in prison if I fucked up that bad.

Opinion | What Autocrats Want From Academics: Servility In 1931, Italian scholars were made to take loyalty oaths. Will that happen to us?

"On October 8, 1931, a law went into effect requiring every Italian university professor to sign an oath pledging their loyalty to the government of Benito Mussolini. Out of over 1,200 professors in the country, only 12 refused. All of them were immediately fired." www.chronicle.com/article/what...

Anyone on #MedSky do advisory work for #GreysAnatomy? It's my escapism this spring but one thing bugs the crap out of me: NO ONE does chest compressions right! 435 episodes and all I see is CPR that won't work? Who's their medical advisor?

My racist HS physics teacher just put a photo of Snoop and Trump on his feed and my classmate posted a response that said "you wrote me up for listening to Snoop in your class in 1993 so fuck you and I think it's about time you know that your daughter stayed over at my house after prom"

Omg. This is horrifying.

Congresswoman Kelly Morrison just revealed that Medicaid covers HALF of the kids in the United states, more than 40% of the births โ€” and Republicans want it gone.

The Republican funding bill impacts ALL OF US.

DOGEโ€™s Millions: As Musk and Trump Gut Government, Their Ax-Cutting Agency Gets Cash Infusion The Department of Government Efficiency is funded โ€” and acts โ€” like a federal agency.

Musk called DOGE โ€œmaximally transparent,โ€ but it has refused to release info about its spending and operations โ€” including the names of its employees.

ProPublica has identified 46 of them, including 12 new names we've just added.

I hear ER still holds up. I'll queue it for spring watching.
