Texas House Democrats offer a brief response to Gov. Greg Abbott's threat of arrest and expulsion: "Come and take it."

Headline from Harvard Crimson: "Harvard President Garber Tells Faculty He Is Not Considering a $500 Million Deal With Trump."

Text of story: Harvard prez Garber says report of a deal "was apparently leaked to the press by White House officials." NYT ran with it as a story.

Important details from this story:

1) Yet another news-break by student journalists (this time @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social) www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

2) Harvard saying "see you in court," not "let's make a deal."

3) Per Garber, WH/MAGA leaked news of a "deal." NYT then ran with it.

What did I tell y’all about Texas Dems??

Let’s gooooo.

David Byrne came to my band’s show at a gay bar in Bed-Stuy and sang This Must Be The Place with us and I still haven’t processed it

Were they absent or did they vote no?

Last spring’s was the only one I felt and was a lil worried.

Howard Dean screamed a little too weird.

You cannot tell me he’s not the dumbest motherfucker anywhere

When the FDA Commissioner goes on TV to elevate an unverified anecdote about a "friend's parent" dying from a COVID vaccine—while ignoring safety data from 1M+ people published 48 hours earlier—we have an institutional problem. This misleading rhetoric is deeply irresponsible. 🧵

I agree with this and I would add that there can be no Democratic Stephen Miller because Democrats despise radical proposals. Proposals that call for uprooting what exists. Mamdani is proposing relatively tame policies coloring within the lines and look at how the elite Dems are reacting...

PBS was for everyone

The thing about PBS is that LeVar Burton was to me what MrBeast is to kids today.

She has spent her life in service to this country. The woman is 60 years old. Ppl need to get a grip.

Me three months ago:

By all means, let the guy who told the secretary of state of Georgia "I just want to find 11,780 votes" make decisions about whose numbers are wrong.

I Tried Five of the Subway's Gross Viral 'Recipes' and Survived (Barely) I fed "Brieghetti Pie" to my friends. I hope they will forgive me.

If you ride New York City subways, you have seen the bizarre So Yummy’s fast-paced “cooking” videos and likely thought, “this must be how they eat at home in Williamsburg.” @hellgatenyc.com does a huge public service by diving headfirst into the monstrosity. hellgatenyc.com/tried-gross-...

He later claims that what he means is that men wish for romance but wowwwww “getting laid” and wanting romance are not at all the same! He fundamentally misunderstands his own argument.

NBC News: Ghislaine Maxwell was ineligible to be transferred to a minimum security prison camp — like the one she was transferred to in Texas — because she is a convicted sex offender, according to the Bureau of Prison's own designation policy.

Lemme just say if President Bernie Sanders had unilaterally imposed, by executive fiat, hundreds of billions of new taxes, personally browbeat executives about job cuts and investments and then fired the head of BLS, the Chamber of Commerce and the business orgs would not be sitting idly by.

This man has been credibly accused of cooking his own books. Of course he wants all the numbers manipulated.

As I was saying, “A.i.” is a tool of fascism. Ban it from your life.

“Identity politics is bad, but we need a charismatic white guy to help us break through to the people who matter,” is the unspoken assumption and prompt.

We watched them cut jobs. That’s what’s so wild here.

“I am going to cut federal jobs.”

*report shows decrease in federal jobs*

“Why would you lie and say there are fewer federal jobs?”

i know this is quaint of me but the white house renovation is crazy illegal and actually really emblematic of how trump sees the presidency as belonging to him

“Men suffer in silence” then why am I constantly hearing about it

YouTube video by Road Less Marveled May 1, 1969: Fred Rogers testifies before the Senate Subcommittee on Communications

With news that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down due to Trump’s meddling, it’s worth watching Mr. Rogers testifying to the Senate about the real value of what we’ve all lost.

The sense that women have excessive moral obligations to men—to care for their feelings, to defer to their interests—but can legitimately make only minor claims in such care from others is central to how misogyny actually perpetrates itself as an ideology.

This man is so exhausting. Why does anyone believe him?

Here's the latest IBX rendering as Gov. Hochul announces a major milestone in moving this project forward. I like the New York blue cars. This station will be a transfer point between the IBX and the D and N trains, which you can see in the background.

“Trump’s name is in the Epstein Files but Kash Patel had FBI agents go through them and black out his name” is the kind of statement that will surely put out this fire
