Trump is making thousands of rule-abiding immigrants undocumented Inside the largest delegalization campaign in modern US history.

"To meet his mass deportation goals, Trump is stripping legal status from thousands of immigrants who followed the rules."

Another act of profound cruelty from Trump, Stephen Miller, and the crew. Read Isabela Dias' new article on this travesty.

Just so’s we’re all clear, almost 3/4 of everything we buy from Europe is now 15% more expensive.

Working like that screams he doesn’t have confidence in anyone else doing their job so he demands oversight and control.

It never really says what they think it will.

I never see it as driven or loving their job. It’s just at the edge of a mental illness I don’t know how to define.

Graph of maternal mortality rate against year for the UK. Rate bounces until and down around 500 deaths per 100,000 births until about 1940, when it falls sharply. It’s been very low (~1–3 per 100,000) ever since.

This graph is astonishing. The people that bang on about “natural birth” and “women have been doing this forever without help” need to be forced to stare at this until their eyes water.

you have to be kidding me

"The Ghor are waging insurrection against the Empire"

Well this seems like a pretty huge fucking admission of racial profiling that will be ignored by the mainstream media

That there’s a police state.

There’s a Hindi phrase (usually said by dads) for when someone leaves the lights on that translates to “Is it Diwali again?” A French version is “We’re not in Versailles!” But my favourite version, by far, is the Serbian “Was your grandpa Nikola Tesla?”

not to be the flyspeck nyt copy as if it's the most important thing guy, but seriously wtf is this?

I’m starting to suspect that the president might not be in charge of his administration, but we’ll have to wait four years for Jake Tapper to look into it I guess?

I don't understand. God's hand saved hundreds, but it missed saving scores of others, including children. Why didn't God do a better job? And can't we just get Him/Her/They to stop extreme weather events caused by climate change?

Cynthia Olivera is a Canadian who’s been living in the US since she was 10 She’s in ICE custody, after being grabbed at her green card interview. The 45 year old wife & mother has been moved between facilities while her husband begs ICE to let her get on a plane to Canada. 🧵 They’re willing to pay. She’s willing to leave. But she can’t escape. This is why we call them concentration camps. There’s no due process. Some people go in and never come out.

Reports that a Canadian citizen who has resided in the US since age 10 was abducted at a green card interview.

Her husband is begging ICE to let him fly her back to Canada and they refuse to release her.

Siri, show me what it looks like when an authoritarian party that campaigned on turning the country into an ethno-police-state ordained by God controls all three branches of government.

Glad that our watchful authorities are keeping us safe from (squints) ... czech clarinetists

Evaluating the impact of two decades of USAID interventions and projecting the effects of defunding on mortality up to 2030: a retrospective impact evaluation and forecasting analysis USAID funding has significantly contributed to the reduction in adult and child mortality across low-income and middle-income countries over the past two decades. Our estimates show that, unless the a...

Elon Musk casually, and illegally, dismantled USAID. According to a new study in the Lancet, that action will lead to *14 million* premature deaths between 2025 and 2030.

Again: Elon Musk is directly responsible for 14 million coming deaths. 4.5 million will be children.

Where it starts is never where it starts. The news that DOJ is prioritizing denaturalizations, combined with very vague explanations of who they will prioritize, is deeply concerning. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Musk, who think he’s humanity’s savior, will likely be remembered as the man who caused the deaths of 15 million people www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Before states banned abortion, one of the gravest outcomes of early miscarriage could easily be avoided: Doctors could offer a dilation and curettage procedure, which quickly empties the uterus and allows it to close, protecting against a life-threatening hemorrhage.

I’m just a simple country political scientist but where I come from if your country has a secret police force that can give orders to members of the national legislature that’s…what’s the right word…bad.

Kristi Noem Secretly Took a Cut of Political Donations A dark money group paid $80,000 to Noem’s personal company when she was governor of South Dakota. She did not include this income on her federal disclosure forms, a likely violation of ethics…

NEW: Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

I know I’ve said this several dozen times, but right wing lunatics frankensteined together unrelated Bible verses to create “the antichrist” and a description of what he would look like, and then the guy fucking showed up and they love him.

Mark and Melissa lie peacefully at the center of our state and our hearts today. Their memorial, guarded by service dogs and men and women in uniform, casts a momentary shadow over L'Étoile du Nord as we honor their life’s work to make Minnesota shine brighter for all.

“We’re the good guys,” I tell myself as a 6-year-old leukemia patient pees his pants in fear. I adjust my black mask and sunglasses in the mirror, making sure to hide my identity. “I am not evil,” I whisper.

The scene from It's A Wonderful Life Where Joseph and Clarence are talking about George Bailey. "A man down on Earth needs our help." "Is he sick?" "No, worse. He's discouraged."

I think about this movie a lot.

It’s a relatively small thing, but by not using the all-caps it fails to communicate how unhinged our president is.

This goes hard, but the metaphor is on point

So according to ICE, there was a pack of armed masked men *pretending* to be them at Dodger Stadium?

Uh ....
