Trump's invasion This weekend marked a major escalation of his campaign of terror.

New in PN: Trump's invasion

"The Trump administration’s war on cities just entered a new, more terrifying phase. What stage of fascism is it when the president defies a court order and sends troops into a city anyway? Because as of Sunday, that’s where we’re at."

Leaked texts on Scott Bessent’s phone suggest the White House got played bailing out Argentina—and U.S. soybean farmers are the casualties “This is highly unfortunate,” the text said. “Soy prices are dropping further because of it. This gives China more leverage on us.”

According to a photo of a private text on the phone of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Argentina responded to the treasury secretary’s $20 billion bailout by turning around and removing its export taxes on soybeans & striking a huge new deal with China. China then immediately pulled out of its...

Anyone: Why are there suddenly so many AHDH diagnoses? Dr. Jen: Same reason there are suddenly more stars after we built telescopes.

The mystery of medical diagnosis!

In order for the United States to become a party to the International Criminal Court and have our officials be subject to trial at The Hague, the US Senate would need to ratify the Rome statute by a two-thirds vote. Let’s start running on that.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds that there is evidence Kilmar Abrego was VINDICTIVELY PROSECUTED. The judge GRANTS Abrego's motion for discovery and a hearing, and the government must now PROVE it did not vindictively prosecute Mr. Abrego. 1/

Warp Speed! How Some Galaxies Can Move Away from Us Faster Than Light When space itself expands, weird things can happen—like galaxies breaking the universe’s ultimate speed limit

Faster than light travel is possible… kinda. Distant galaxies are receding from us at superluminal speeds. How can that be, and how can we see them if they're flying away faster than the light they emit?

Even weirder: to them, *you*re* moving FTL!

Styopka’s wisdom

Avoiding certain people to protect your emotional health is not weakness, but wisdom
#StyopkasWisdom

Our military is not trained for de-escalation or peacekeeping, they are trained to kill efficiently. We should not be sending them into our cities to police civilians.

Not only does this go against the Posse Comitatus Act, it will only escalate tensions.

Honestly, I'd prefer to go to Folkvangr - the meadowlands presided over by Freyja and her cats

JUST IN: A U.S. citizen from Alabama who has been detained twice by ICE while working at a construction site, has filed a class action suit claiming ICE's broad warrantless arrest powers violate the constitution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Translation: feel free to harass and rape fellow soldiers and sailors with reckless abandon because there’s no longer a safe way for them to report you.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown.

Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

Covid & Cancer There is now compelling medical evidence that Covid-19 infections can reactivate dormant cancer cells, and trigger the growth of secondary cancers.

It’s still not right, @apnews.com, but it’s closer. The headline is “Republican Congress fails to fund government. Shutdown imminent.”

This moment is a test. Donald Trump wants us to blink first and hand him over power.

We have too much to save to give in. Protecting the American people is too important a task for us to give up before anything even starts.

Trump just called us "the enemy within"

Those are LITERALLY the words Adolf Hitler used to describe Jews in Nazi Germany. Literally the same words.

This is why I keep saying we must never forget and never forgive the people who did this to us.

We have to learn from the failure of Reconstruction, and punish them, so it never happens again. We can't let them just move on, and pretend that they never did any of this.

The leucovorin story is already blending with existing misinformation online about folic acid and MTHFR genotypes to create a new generation of medicalized claims without much evidence.

We are bailing out Argentina while Argentina’s farmers sell soybeans to China in the place of American farmers which is putting them out of business, so now we also have to bail out American farmers while Argentinian farmers make bank.

Trump’s America First Golden Age.

I need one of those ratatouille rats but for small talk

If only we’d known in 2015 that we could just turn off the escalator.

What a weird-ass Rapture. Only the Constitution disappeared.

Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin ✨ figured out what stars are made of ✨ when she was just 25. 🔭🧪

Her PhD thesis basically established the Harvard astro department — at a time when Harvard didn't officially allow woman students.
