Here Are the Attack Plans That Trump’s Advisers Shared on Signal The administration has downplayed the importance of the text messages inadvertently sent to The Atlantic’s editor in chief.

Anyone else notice that "good man" Mike Waltz is getting a verbal pass and Pete Hegseth is getting, well, silence?

I seem to remember having this conversation with students

Who will remember you? #politics #writingcommunity #history

Agreed

For us the moving in process is like the tides: an empty space and in roll the boxes and their contents leaving a slightly organized place, then in rolls the next wave. And so on until some sort of equilibrium is achieved. Best of luck

Lovely! Welcome back 🧵

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

I find it, hm, strange, that Denmark, Finland and now also we here in Germany have received a request to deliver eggs to the US. Even if we put aside Greenland for a moment, DT will only slap another tariff on our eggs and they will probably be as expensive. Logic eludes me 😊

This is why Canada has plenty of eggs — and the U.S. doesn't While the U.S. grapples with an egg shortage caused by avian flu, eggs remain plentiful and affordable in Canada. There are reasons for that, including that egg farms there tend to be smaller.

Wondering about the #eggprices? Check this article out.
BTW, according to the #Ohio #Poultry Board, "Ohio is ranked No. 2 in the nation for egg production, with more than 10 billion eggs produced each year." NOW think about those egg prices. . . .

Thank you. Uncle Jack (John W O'Malley, SJ) would have been proud of that response. And horrified at our situation.

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

An advanced reading copy arrived! To have a book come to life on screens and now hold it in my hands—no better feeling as an author. I can’t wait to get in your hands, in youth hands MALCOLM LIVES! The Official Biography of Malcolm X for Young Readers. Preorder now.

I keep hearing about how the SAVE Act endangers voting rights for women. How are the ID requirements different in that than the current federal standard for the i9? I've been in HR and have never seen anyone rejected for a birth certificate that doesn't match later name.

Thrilled that the artists are revolting. The good guys in the AmRev wore #blue coats. #Redhats are the modern #redcoats. #hamilton @lin-manuelmiranda.bsky.social

A colour cartoon by Zapiro. Donald Trump, dressed as Adolf Hitler with a Swastika armband and a yellow glove on his "outstretched" left arm, holds a card in his right hand with the word "PEPFAR" scratched out and the words "END TO AIDS FUND" scrawled in red pen. A red-eyed black-feathered vulture, with the word "AIDS" on its chest, has just launched from his gloved hand. Adolf Trump yells, "NON-AMERICANS! MILLIONS OF AFRICANS! ... GO GET 'EM!!"

Blue lantern lit with a yellow flame

4/4 REMEMBER: the good guys in the Revolutionary War did NOT wear red. The "Redhats" are the 21st century "Redcoats." The Americans who could afford uniforms wore blue 💙

3/4 What if we get people to display 1 lantern or light in their windows the night of April 18? Blue would be awesome. We know the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence is going to be hijacked in DC. Let's figure out ways to not cede that holiday.

Blue camping lantern

2/4 Ohio's county commissioners are advertising a "Two Lights for Tomorrow" commemoration and encouraging county courthouse in Ohio to display 2 lanterns (my conservative cousin shared the FB post). Here's the thing: they're NOT coming by sea. They're coming by land and they're already here.

1/4 I have an idea for a low-risk visibility event. April 18 2025 is the 250th anniversary of "Midnight Ride" to warn the militias of Lexington and Concord to prepare for the arrival of British troops on April 19. The battles of Lexington and Concord marked the beginning of the American Revolution.
