That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Here is some material Bari Weiss published regarding Covid.

So when anyone defends her in any way, what they are saying is that real world victims of medical disinformation don’t matter.

It’s all just a game to these pundits.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

OBAMA WINS THE INTERNET FOR THE MILLENNIUM!!!!!!!

Trump’s DOJ got obliterated in court. Judge Amir Ali lost patience after DOJ lawyers refused to answer basic questions about illegally freezing USAID funds. I don’t know why I can’t get a straight answer, he snapped. Ali ruled against them, ordering funds released by midnight.

Hey, could someone tell those republicans that waving like that is not a good idea - someone might think they are nazis? 👀

I’m forcing the Senate to vote on an amendment to reverse Trump’s layoffs of thousands of critical wildland firefighters.

My colleagues claim to support our first responders.

Time for them to prove it.

Stephen King has returned to Twitter.

Hey. You should text/call/voice-note some friends just because. Don't just DM silly videos. Check in with them. We all need some genuine connection right now!

Never underestimate the vengeful nihilism at the heart of this movement. The glitter-eyed fanatics behind Project 2025 and other such programmes will smash whatever is most precious to you, partly at the behest of commercial interests – but also to enjoy watching the pain it inflicts. They will crush beauty, joy, community and hope precisely because other people value them.

Here's one of the warnings I gave in an article before the US election. It's devastating to see it all happening.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State.

H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Trump: "We have a very corrupt country. Very corrupt country. And it's a sad thing to say ... if you take all of those millions of people off social security, all of the sudden we have a very powerful social security."

Trump maintains funding freeze at NIH, defying court order The Trump administration is still prohibiting National Institutes of Health (NIH) staff from issuing virtually all grant funding, an NIH official tells Popular Information.

IMO, the Trump administration unilaterally freezing all funding for cancer research, in violation of two federal court orders, is a big deal.

A coalition of organizations representing white South Africans stated categorically that their members are not interested in Trump’s offer: “We may disagree with the ANC, but we love our country.”

Senator Alsobrooks: "In his wicked hunt for vengeance, this president has decided that no target is too small, no family is too vulnerable, and no American is out of bounds."

And if you call for an Uber or Lyft and get a Tesla, cancel it and tell them why.

98% of NIH grants that should have gone out this month, didn't. Despite court orders 'unfreezing' the funds, they are frozen. Biomedical research will grind to a halt. Clinical trials will end. All for no reason: the total impact on the US budget is miniscule

Let’s be more accurate about what Target is really doing because the headlines aren’t telling it right.

Target is bending the knee and sending a message to its customers that equity doesn’t matter and that the old systems—built to favor a few while excluding the rest—are just fine.
