Multiple deaths reported in Somerset and London due to late night tornadoes UPDATED The towns of Somerset and London have been hit particularly hard with many homes and buildings damaged in the early morning hours.

🚨URGENT RESPONSE CALL🚨

🌪️23 LIVES WERE LOST OVERNIGHT AS TORNADOS HIT KY.

KY has one of several regions in the US without 24/7 National Weather Service coverage, due to DOGE cuts. W/out overnight monitoring, ppl don't receive weather warnings.

THIS is how science cuts cost lives.

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution?

How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ?

20 minutes at the most

Just curious, what’s the tariff on a $400 million jet from Qatar?

Ideas are illegal and people are objects now? Using "it" to refer to a human being is demeaning, dehumanizing, and just plain disgusting.

Pride flag ban: Utah becomes first state to outlaw pride flags in government buildings, schools Utah becomes the first state in the nation to ban pride flags from government buildings and schools after Gov. Cox refuses to take action on the bill.

Banning Pride flags won't erase LGBTQ people — we have always been here, and always will.

They're going after Big Bird now 😡

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance.

Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

Trump orders a plan to dismantle the Education Department while keeping some core functions President Donald Trump has signed an executive order calling for the dismantling of the Education Department. The Republican president announced his plan Thursday.

This is really going to hurt the smaller states, rural areas, and special needs kids. It will also make it harder for teachers to get the training they need and to go to college. Civil rights laws won't be enforced in the schools either.

Americans have bystander syndrome. Most just stand around waiting for someone else to do something. No is coming to save us.

ARIZONA — Bernie on the Oligarchy: “From the bottom of my heart, I am convinced they can be defeated.”

We screamed this before the election when they published Project 2025! Stop dismissing the threat. Believe people when they show you who they are.

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.

I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person

I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

CARTOON OF THE DAY 😕🇺🇸

DOGE 'breaks' into US Institute of Peace Headquarters It works closely with the defense department to prevent violence and broker peace deals abroad.

This is a non-profit organization, not an Executive Branch government office and their building isn't government property.

Their mission is to keep us out of foreign wars.

Timeline cleanse. Your 11 seconds of zen for today. A wee waterfall next to a road in rural NE Connecticut.

Contemplate the power millions of water droplets have when they act together and move in the same direction.

Spot on. An educated populace is dangerous for fascist regimes.

Keep shouting from the rooftops.

They're moving to classify constitutionally protected speech as terrorism. This is a five alarm fire.

Wait.

Schumer is starting a BOOK TOUR THIS WEEK?!? Is that why he rolled over so fast?!?

I’m done.

Yup. Saved up my paper route and babysitting money to pay my parents the $6/hour it cost to use the Internet in 1985.

Crazy times...there was no "back button". If you wanted to go back to a previous site/bb, you better have had the address written down! 🤣

Uh....there were trolls everywhere online in the 80s.

The number of grown men who tried to get 15 year old me to meet up for sex was mind boggling.

I was bullied and abused online constantly until I started using a male sounding screen name. But I didn't dare let slip I was a 15 year old girl.

'Highly unusual': White House halts FBI background checks for senior staff, shifts them to Pentagon: Sources The White House has quietly told the FBI to halt background checks on dozens of the president's top staffers and has transferred the process to the Pentagon, sources say.
