Today in Boston.

Over a million people turned out.

Even the drone couldn't get it all.

This is the spirit of Los Angeles.

This is California.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Trump’s reckless and discriminatory travel ban doesn’t make us safer. All it will do is further isolate the United Statesfrom our allies and weaken our global leadership.

Centaurus A. A glowing orange region shines at the upper left corner, with dark brown and black dust cascading diagonally down to the lower right. Distant stars dot the hazy background of space. Bright pink regions of star formation are interspersed throughout the dust.

Angled from the upper left corner to the lower right corner is a cone-shaped orange-red cloud known as Herbig-Haro 49/50. This feature takes up about three-fourths of the length of this angle. The upper left end of this feature has a translucent, rounded end. The conical feature widens slightly from the rounded end at the upper right down to the lower right. Along the cone there are additional rounded edges, like edges of a wave, and intricate foamy-like details, as well as a clearer view of the black background of space. In the upper left, overlapping with the rounded end of Herbig-Haro 49/50, is a background spiral galaxy with a concentrated blue center that fades outward to blend with red spiral arms. The background of space is speckled with some white stars and smaller, more numerous, fainter white galaxies throughout.

A massive spiral galaxy fills the image, with its bright yellow core seen near the upper left. Spiral arms whirl outward, laced through with dark brown dust and bright blue patches of star formation.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which, have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.

concerned about the state of the world because of two powerful men fighting? doomscrolling again?

stop. breathe. enjoy the universe for a brief moment

I’m an American living in Lima. Yesterday my feed blew up simultaneously with “First American pope!” and “El papa nuevo es peruano!!!”

Opinion | Trump’s economic vision was discredited decades ago in Latin America It’s bizarre to see the U.S. acting like a “Third World country” of yore.

“it is not that the international order harmed the United States. It is that the United States failed to translate its victory in the race toward global supremacy into broadly shared prosperity at home.”

Live: Speaking on Trump, Musk, and America’s Moral Moment on the Senate Floor | Senator Cory Booker YouTube video by Senator Cory Booker

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Cory Booker speech slamming Trump's agenda pushes past 20 hours The New Jersey Senator began his time on the Senate Chamber floor by criticising the president's policies.

Go Cory!!!!

They aren’t mutually exclusive.

Atlantic magazine publishes attack plans editor shared in White House group chat - live updates Atlantic magazine publishes attack plans editor says Trump aides shared in group chat

Top headline on the BBC is Signalgate. But it’s nowhere on the front page of Fox. Fox has a story (only in the politics section) headlined “Walz takes responsibility for leak” which is not something anyone else has observed.

I don’t know the technical definition of ‘clean on OPSEC’ but I’m pretty sure texting someone’s cell phone while they are in the actual Kremlin, and you have no clue who else is in your chat, ain’t it.

But who reads their emails, they should have put the warning in a group chat

Someone ask him to define OPSEC, I want to hear his answer.

Trump officials refuse details on deportee flights, citing state secrets The invocation of the state secrets privilege escalates a standoff between Trump officials and U.S. Judge James E. Boasberg over Venezuelan deportations.

Such commitment to protecting state secrets. Maybe they’ll text JG the info. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

“We are currently clean on OPSEC,” is gonna be my new slogan when I’ve royally effed up.

That didn’t take long.

I’m more careful about texts I send my kids with silly memes than these idiots were with top secret military plans.

I’m betting they will claim it’s Goldberg who broke the law instead of them, and try to get him arrested.

The NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR. Seriously???? www.bbc.com/news/live/cg...

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...

Yup

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

“Rapid unscheduled disassembly” is how SpaceX describes the rocket explosion. Seems like a description of everything EM is involved in.

“The new administration is rapidly changing all foreign policy configurations,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, state television reported Sunday. “This largely aligns with our vision.”

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT?

Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

A reminder for these times.
