Check out how easy this is.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

the tech industry is about to invent books

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

“I do not believe that we should criticize and judge other people. I think we should be accepting and loving. We are all God’s children. We are who we are, and we should be allowed to be who we are.”

A timeline cleanse with Jimothy the Raccoon in Seattle. He’s a uniquely shaped raccoon with a short-body spinal deformity but he doesn’t know that he’s different. Here’s his origin story. ❤️ #ProudBlue #Jimothy

#Poetry #Painting #Fireflies She knows where the blue flag grows wild and the grass is deep where the fireflies blinking their little lights, hurry toward one another. And the world continues, God willing. - Mary Oliver 🎨 Amanda Clark

He is PERFECT ... #Jimothy

Roses are red the reflecting pool is noxious

Peacock spiders are only 4mm long, but their courtship dance rivals any bird of paradise. Australia has over 90 species of these tiny, ultra-colorful performers.

Heinrich Himmler: "If we lose the war, the Allies will turn every committee of the occupation into an investigative body. They will go after the Reich leadership, the cabinet, the donors, and friends."

We’re about to spend $300,000,000,000 rebuilding Iran after spending $80,000,000,000 destroying it, while telling Americans on Medicaid to take a hike. America First.

A judge ordered the Admin to restore all National Parks signs it removed—including info at Acadia about indigenous history + climate change.   Visiting these parks isn’t just about the scenery. It’s also about knowing our history, the natural forces that shaped these places + the threats they face.

Everybody talks about how nothing is affordable anymore but no one talks about how poorly made and disposable things are. Part of the affordability crisis is because we keep repurchasing things, cars, appliances, clothes etc because things don’t last.

This is Copo. He firmly believes this cow statue is his new best friend. 13/10 super happy for them both (IG: copodenievebullterrier)

To my Pride folks. You are loved. There ain't no other you. You are so fierce you got these wockaflockas shook and whatnot. Go on with yo' bad selves.

Apparently Netanyahu has been admitted to hospital. I sincerely hope it's nothing trivial.

I support getting big money out of our politics. So do the vast majority of Americans. It's within our power to make it so.

A reminder that Hakeem Jeffries still has me blocked. He wants people to believe that he can fight Trump’s fascism when he can’t even withstand online criticism.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

Yup. Ignore it and do it.

"In a maximum-gerrymandering scenario, more than 400 seats in the House could be safe and essentially uncontestable, delivering to voters year after year an unresponsive and unimpeachable class of lazy representatives with little incentive to represent them" www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

I'll leave you with where we end the book:

Folks, these are the stakes. Black Americans spent a century fighting and dying for the VRA. It is no more. It falls to all of us to pick the work back up, and carry on. Lament. Rage. Cry. Scream. I've done all these and more this week. But it will take our demanding it for it to happen

But as of April 29, 2026, there is no federal statute in the United States of America that can stop racially discriminatory voting laws from going into effect, or can be used to litigate against them once on the books.

Mike Miller and I have been studying all of this for years, I should add. If you are interested in the history of the VRA and the effects of Shelby County, you could consider preordering our book, which will be out in October: bookshop.org/p/books/an-a...

Your odds of becoming a trillionaire: 1 in 8 billion. A US billionaire: 1 in 340,000. Unhoused in America: 1 in 650. We have far more in common with people living in their cars than with those living in their gilded compounds. And it's time we started acting like it. stopthetrillionaires.com

Trump filed lawsuits over jokes, tweets, and newspaper articles — yet not once over the countless allegations of child rape. That silence says everything.

A Supreme Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places the Court at odds with democracy itself. This is the legacy of Chief Justice John Roberts. I opposed his nomination back in 2005, and I stand by that.

Hochul: "I’m working with the Legislature to change New York’s redistricting process so we can fight back against Washington’s attempts to rig our democracy." This is the way

Absolutely! Two can play at this game.

Mycena subcyanocephala, a tiny, bright blue mushroom species, was discovered in the tropical forests of Taiwan.
