South Park skewered President Trump. Stephen Colbert isn't holding back. This week, comedians on Paramount-owned shows aired their grievances against both their parent company and Trump.

He went alone and beat the odds.

My latest for @cnn.com is about the 1st evidence that insects eavesdrop on plants, with moths using acoustic signals to decide which plants will be the nummiest treats for larvae ๐งช

This is a clear example of that. The executive order is the construction of a system to remove those seen as a drag on society to camps.
We have done this experiment one billion times and it has worked great all one billion times.

Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesnโt use should raise their voices loudly here as well.

"French President Emmanuel Macron announced Thursday that France will recognize Palestine as a state, amid snowballing global anger over people starving in Gaza."

As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed.
Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.
This week, Iโm hosting The Daily Show Tuesday through Thursday.
Itโs my first time hosting anything on TV. Ever.
Iโve spent years writing behind the scenes, learning from truly great and talented people. Now, for three nights, I get to sit at the desk and do it myself.

The male Black-headed Trogon was working on the nest with his mate today at Agami Island. They've made some progress over the last week, but it's time-consuming creating a burrow in the termite mound.

Occupy ICE is having too much fun. Theyโre blaring Oingo Boingo, theyโve a giant strobe light flashing on the detention center and this adorable person is wearing a rainbow unicorn outfit and ringing a loud bell.
Zero rest for ICE tonight!

"Cafes like Al-Baqa arenโt just social spaces; for many, they are the only places to access electricity and the internet...due to the ongoing blockade and widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure. The people killed were students, workers, journalists...all clinging to a sense of normalcy."
