To say I’m disappointed about Jim Ryan being pressured into resigning as President of UVA is a gross understatement. As an alum, I am heartbroken for the entire UVA community. His letter to us is elegant, heartfelt & sincere. I’d love to see him interviewed. @maddow.msnbc.com

And many of these small businesses are STILL waiting on the ERTC checks that they paid money to file for over a year ago.

Somehow Marco Rubio characterizing his boss trump as Regina George, which of course would make Rubio Gretchen Weiner, and JD Karen, makes all the sense in the world. Except the movie characters are way more likable. Stop trying to make β€œfetch” happen, Rubi!!

The 1987 film β€œNo Way Out” needs to be showing on a constant loop so that everyone can see an example (though fictional) of how Russia uses assets over decades, within US government. Great movie. Frightening reality #kevincostner #genehackman @mgmstudios.bsky.social #appletv

Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.

WOW. After yesterday’s Oval Office ambush of President Zelensky, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway’s leading marine fuel providers, announced that it will no longer refuel U.S. Navy vessels, urging other European firms to follow suit.

The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.

Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today β€” a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December.

Tesla’s CEO was not in the office.

In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

Wouldn’t it be great if this was how Federal employees responded to Elon’s weekend request for a list of what they’ve accomplished:

Commission your friends for art. Give them dollars (this makes them happy) in exchange for drawing you like (this makes you happy). This is symbiosis. This is a healthy ecosystem.

Support your friends. Support art. Support your friends' art.

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration.

Big mistake. Huge.

If you’re a federal govt employee targeted for leave or termination on the basis of your DEI work, please file an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) complaint & retain legal counsel.

I’m a former NIH PI. Happy to refer you to a law firm that has successfully sued the govt many times!

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From β€˜biggest crowd ever’ to β€˜normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.
