We know this fight is exhausting. That’s not an accident wearing us down is their whole strategy. But you keep showing up anyway, and that means everything to us. Thank you for not giving up. We’re in this together.
DAVE SMITH: “Piers isn’t a Jew hater, I’m Jewish, and you’re invoking antisemitism when 🇮🇱 gets criticism… maybe it’s just you guys are a rogue regime killing tens of thousands violating international law trying to drag my country into more conflicts.”
Too much already.
Stop.
First Amendment violation, Brendan.
I wonder if a class-action lawsuit (with 320 million of us being the injured class) might change your mind.
Do this and ALL of us will see you in court.
TSA workers are working without pay without option. Homeland Security is rolling in dough and could pay them. They are choosing instead to put more into ICE.
And suggesting we give TSA folks gift cards to help them.
The Trump Elite are vile.
I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).
The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.
I've been kind of busy this week. Sounds like Iran is decimated but also we're begging other countries for help?
They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.
Search-and-rescue crews were “flying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.
Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.
But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.
“We’re going to do what we did in Gaza,” a senior Israeli official says of Lebanon.
Doctors warn of a deadly complication from measles outbreaks. Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis typically takes years to appear.

A DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities to flag grants for "DEI" tries to explain what "DEI" is. This deposition is part of a lawsuit by the @acls1919.bsky.social, @historians.org and @modernlanguage.bsky.social.
To summarize, Trump has offered asylum to Iran’s women’s soccer team and death to its men’s.
It's not all of us nerds who got bullied but it's always a nerd who got bullied.
So our specialty is death and destruction?
Gave up all of the currency and promise of the “idea” of America (however flawed), in exchange for “we kill people. We kill lots of people.”
Oh this is one of those observations that’s going to stick with me for a long time
The US is in the market for friends again.
The juvenile trolls didn't get it, but their bowling analogy is perfect.
The ball hits the first pin straight on. That's not how you get a strike. That's how you get an almost-impossible-to-solve split.
Their own metaphor predicts a quagmire.
Commercial astronaut?
Is that how space tourists self-identify?
It is extremely difficult to construct a practical case against this position. Net Zero is now as much about patriotism as it is about climate change.
Like the Pandemic Preparedness Office, they gutted before COVID.
"The Pentagon had been working on a plan to avoid civilian deaths. It was heading toward implementation until Trump officials waylaid it last year."

The fact that trans people exist will not make me vote for the party that saw no crimes in millions of files detailing trafficking and sexual abuse of children.
