About 400 immigrant children were detained longer than the recommended limit, ICE admits Legal advocates concerned over the prolonged detention of immigrant children in federal custody are sounding the alarm before the federal court. U.S.

ICE is kidnapping and locking up little kids, denying them medical care, and feeding them contaminated food.

They aren’t going after criminals, they are going after Black and brown people, because this isn’t about immigration, it’s about white supremacy.

RFK Jr.’s CDC panel: No more hepatitis B vaccine for some newborns The CDC's vaccine advisory panel, stocked with anti-vaccine activists and loyalists to RFK Jr., voted Friday to stop recommending a birth dose of vaccine.

Kennedy's zombie ACIP panel just voted to restrict hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. Experts say it will harm children for no reason. www.ms.now/news/rfk-cdc...

ACIP member Dr. Cody Meissner:

"'Do no harm' is a moral imperative. We are doing harm by changing this wording. And I vote no."

like we knew they were lying but the EXTENT to which they were lying has actually, sincerely, shocked me

I feel sick thinking about this, especially given Megyn Kelly and all the other absolute ghouls at Fox News who have been SALIVATING over this

the thing about extra-time accommodations is that either they help you a lot or they don't matter much, and if they help you a lot that is evidence that you should get them

Elon Musk’s Foundation Grows to $14 Billion, but Gives Little to Outsiders The philanthropy has become one of America’s biggest, but most of its giving went to charities closely tied to the world’s richest man.

Elon Musk’s charitable foundation grew larger than ever in 2024. But, for the fourth year in a row, the huge charity failed to give away the minimum amount required by law — and the donations it did make went largely to charities closely tied to Musk himself, who is the world's richest man.

If you’re not sure why they had to issue this statement about Franklin the turtle it’s because Pete Hegseth did something horrible again: gizmodo.com/franklin-the...

a few candidates have talked about this but any Dem planning to run in 2028 should make it explicit: the next DOJ will, in fact, go after you if you’re funding this awful ballroom, or any other pay to play deals you make with this administration

Lopez Belloza made it through security but was stopped as she was about to board the plane, Pomerleau said. "They wouldn't tell her why she was being detained. She didn't understand it at all," Pomerleau said. She was then taken to the Burlington ICE field office, then flown to Texas, Pomerleau said. The Department of Homeland Security and Babson College did not immediately respond to a request for comment. After a frantic 48-hour search, her family received a call from her on Saturday from Honduras, a country she had not lived in since she was a child. The federal government had quickly deported her, the lawyers said, and Lopez Belloza had found her way to her grandparents' house and called her father.

Imagine getting ready for your daughter to come home from her freshman year of college for Thanksgiving, and the day of departure she goes MIA, and then 48 nightmarish hours later she calls you to tell her that ICE goons kidnapped her and shipped her to Honduras www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/25/m...

Everyone with a platform — even a microscopic one like mine — should use their megaphone to promote other people’s great work. Particularly the work that’s not already big or popular or successful.

Always promote great work when you see it.

I feel like, "Why do Trump's doctors keep administering cognitive exams to him?" is a question the media might want to pursue, if for some reason they were inclined to apply the same standards to a Republican politician that they do to Democratic ones.

Heinous.

This whole thread is great, but yeah this is why the Nuzzi thing is so angrily lodged in my brain right now. Most of us follow the rigid ethical guidelines regarding trandparency, disclosures, etc. But it's the shady journalists/outlets who get the most money. That fucking hurts on multiple levels.

Thanksgiving is problematic. Giving thanks is not. As someone who wants to remember the attempted genocide of indigenous people but also likes a reminder to practice gratitude, I like to use Indigenous People's Month to support (and be grateful for) indigenous creators. A partial list! /1
