I’ve been loving my subscription so far over the past few months! Excellent journalism on the current state of affairs plus interesting articles about science, etc. that always make me want to click and read!

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Dear Democrats fight autocracy not young people

RFK Jr.'s "MAHA" movement doesn't want to eliminate chronic illness. They want to eliminate the chronically ill. Public health, modern medicine and disease mitigation will suffer under RFK Jr. because he sees sick people- not sickness- as the problem.

"MAHA does not want to save every life. MAHA wants to end the lives of those who can’t survive a world without vaccines, food safety, and hygiene, because MAHA believes that people exist on a spectrum of “weak” to “strong”"

Please highlight this story.

Teaching Gandhi in a Texas Detention Center A visit to the ICE facility housing the Georgetown postdoctoral fellow Badar Khan Suri, whose case parallels those of Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk

ICE arrested Badar Khan Suri, a postdoctoral fellow from India at Georgetown University, on 17 March. He's been in custody in Texas ever since; big props to his academic director Nader Hashemi for personally visiting him and telling his story!

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

so, arresting judges should be more than enough reason for complete obstruction at in the house and senate. complete obstruction. anything you can do. interrupt proceedings, deny consent, holds on nominations.

ICYMI: Georgetown Law students made a 853-row spreadsheet of Trump-caving firms. It drew national headlines. Recruiters noticed some talent looked elsewhere. Firms lobbied to change their designation.

Six Men Are Charged After Woman Was Dragged From Idaho Town Hall The plainclothes guards were involved in the forcible removal of a woman from a meeting hosted by local Republicans in Coeur d’Alene, prosecutors said.

Remember those piece of shit private security guards who violently dragged a woman out of a GOP town hall in Idaho back in February? They’ve finally been charged.

Omg. This makes so much sense.

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

Haha, same for us but we’re doing a 12 am to 6 am vigil!

Hey Donold, Joe Biden brought Brittney Griner home from a Russian gulag, but you can’t bring home Kilmar Abrego García? You gonna let Joe be a better dealmaker than you?

Worth noting: while Trump is attempting to destroy Head Start in next year's appropriations, they're not waiting to do it legally. They're also holding up funding right now, and centers are closing because of it.

Marzipan, an orange-and-white cat, is inside a light blue soft-sided cooler. The cooler is perfectly cat-sized, and she pushes up the unzipped lid with her head to peek out of the open crack. She advises you sagely, “comrades, remember to always position yourself at a strategic vantage point and use the element of surprise.”
