Iran is run by medieval religious fanatics who murder women for showing hair, support terrorism throughout the area, and BTW are as brutal, corrupt & incompetent as any thuggish dictatorship. If you’re supporting the Ayatollahs, don’t even try to tell me you’re progressive.

I just voted to cancel Trump’s reckless tariffs on Canada. This is a major victory for the American people and for Congress reclaiming our constitutional authority over tariffs. And, it's a defeat for Trump and Speaker Johnson, who for months blocked the House from taking this vote.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Massie on Howard Lutnick: "He should just resign. Three people in Great Britain resigned for less than what we've seen Howard Lutnick lie about. He clearly went to the island, if we believe what's in these files. He was in business with Jeffrey Epstein."

Sure … a death defying 130 kmh run down an ice canal with 10 G forces acting on you is „a joke“

Trust me, the woman of academia are not at all surprised by the number of academic men orbiting Epstein.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

The Power of the Sun While its implementation as a renewable energy may seem new, humans have used solar energy for hundreds of years.

“The scale of solar being deployed in such a short period of time has not been seen, I think, anywhere ever before.”

This is my take on solar adoption in Pakistan covered by National Geographic.

I grew up with the Washington Post, wrote editorials for the Washington Post and published a column there for more than 15 years. To watch its owners destroy it, seemingly deliberately, in just a year and a half is devastating.

Althea Gibson was the first African American to compete in a pro-world tennis tour and in 1956, the first African American woman to win a Grand Slam title. Overall, Gibson garnered 11 Grand Slam wins, including six singles titles. #BlackHistoryMonth

Chomsky ….ick

Newly released files shed new light on Chomsky and Epstein relationship Latest communications undermine Chomsky’s earlier claims that he primarily had financial dealings with Epstein

Spanish PM Sánchez: The owner of X, himself a migrant, used his personal account to amplify disinformation about the sovereign decision of my government to regularize 500,000 migrants who live, work, and contribute to the success of our country.

story updated: the investigation 'was opened in January 2025 following complaints about X's algorithm and the content it recommended'. It 'was expanded in July 2025 after reports of sexually explicit deepfakes and holocaust denial content circulating on the platform.'

Remember the hypocrisy of Danielle Smith telling Albertans we can't afford net zero and the power grid would be at risk if forced to adopt EV's. A year later she's building out and pushing data centres which would consume more power than any EV's ever sold and used in Alberta. #abpoli

Everyone on my train was watching the Melania movie on their phones. The whole carriage cheered.

Whoa. This is from an FBI email with the subect "Re: Epstein - Cellmate Interview"

Here are the summaries provided by the FBI agent.

To the NYTimes audience Dr. Bhattacharya claims he wants to restore trust in science.

To his base, he says scientists are evil. This was today.

This week has been a lot. It’s overwhelming.

But what is in those files the DOJ released today is a scandal of monumental proportions. People fear that it is “too big to fail.” Maybe.
But Congress must act.

Yes! we need all the files. But what has been released is already a four-alarm fire.

MINNEAPOLIS: “Thousands and thousands— the people of Minneapolis are not letting up. Despite Tom Homan saying there’s a drawdown, these people don’t believe it. They want ICE OUT COMPLETELY.”

Black-and-white partially framed studio portrait of Winifred Goldring, an esteemed American paleontologist (1888–1971), shown in a classic head-and-shoulders view against a soft, shaded background. She has neatly styled graying hair pulled back, a calm and dignified expression with a slight smile, and is dressed in a dark V-neck blouse or dress, evoking early 20th-century formality. As the first woman to serve as State Paleontologist of New York (1939–1954)—a groundbreaking role as the first female in the U.S. and likely worldwide in such a position—she worked at the New York State Museum for over 40 years, starting in 1912 as a scientific expert in paleontology. She rose to become the museum's first female curator, authored key works on Devonian crinoids and the Gilboa fossil forest, pioneered innovative museum exhibits (including the famous 1924 diorama of a living Devonian seed fern forest), described stromatolites, and broke barriers as the first female president of the Paleontological Society (1949) and vice president of the Geological Society of America (1950). Her legacy includes advancing paleontological research, education, and public outreach on prehistoric life. #WomenInScience

Black-and-white candid photograph of Winifred Goldring in her fieldwork attire at Mount Rainier National Park in Washington, July 1928, captured on a scenic mountain path lined with tall pine trees and rocky terrain. She wears practical outdoor clothing including a cap, long-sleeved shirt, sturdy pants or overalls, and boots, and carries a walking stick or pole for support on the uneven ground, smiling brightly with evident enthusiasm for the outdoors. As a renowned paleontologist and geologist (1888–1971), Goldring was passionate about fieldwork from her youth, hiking extensively to study fossils and geology; her research focused on Paleozoic formations, including crinoids, stromatolites, and the iconic Gilboa Devonian forest fossils. She served as New York State's first female State Paleontologist (1939–1954), the museum's first female curator, and a leader in paleontology, creating groundbreaking exhibits and inspiring generations despite gender barriers in the field.

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.

Decide. Who are you?

Well, the OP was an EU representative posting about an EU decision ….

and what’s that got to do with the EU?

Repression cannot go unanswered.

EU Foreign Ministers just took the decisive step of designating Iran’s Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organisation.

Any regime that kills thousands of its own people is working toward its own demise.

“.. This list should give pause to anyone — no matter his or her political beliefs — who cares about the rule of law,” Judge Schiltz added.

There is an old word to describe going to a foreign power and asking for their assistance in breaking up a sovereign country — it’s treason.
