Head Start has helped over 30 million kids since 1965. It was built to give poor children a fair shot before kindergarten. Now the Trump administration wants to gut the standards that make it work, while calling it “cutting red tape.”

Joe Rogan is exhibit A for my increasing conviction that a warped ideal of “critical thinking” has been the most destructive cultural phenomenon of the past three decades.

Another killing by ICE, this time in Maine. That’s twice in one week. How can America keep asking immigrant workers to work as usual if they are being shot dead on their way to work? Stop killing us.

Today we beat Stephen Miller’s lawsuit mill in court! For 3 years I’ve been a defendant in a case filed by America First Legal on behalf of Gateway Pundit & a random antivaxxer we’d never heard of until she sued us. The plaintiffs claimed we “censored” them. It was a lie. They just lost.

ucsd.tvVIDEO: The American Denial of Global Warming - Perspectives on Ocean SciencePolls show that between one-third and one-half of Americans still believe that there is "no solid" evidence of global warming, or that if warming is happening it can be attributed to natural variability. Others believe that scientists are still debating the point. Join scientist and renowned historian Naomi Oreskes as she describes her investigation into the reasons for such widespread mistrust and misunderstanding of scientific consensus and probes the history of organized campaigns designed to create public doubt and confusion about science.

Tulsi Gabbard dumped a pile of docs & claimed they were evidence of a vast plot by Fauci to manipulate intelligence, cover up the lab leak, & conceal his role in creating Covid. They weren’t. In reality, Gabbard’s documents undermine her. Here’s what they say… www.lawfaremedia.org/article/tuls...

Excellent new analysis led by @predwards.bsky.social finds more gaps in tobacco industry rhetoric regarding its "transformation" and what it's actually achieving. Short take out: the leopard hasn't changed its spots.

Philip Morris International's data reveal it is dismally failing to 'unsmoke the world'. Decline in shipments of smoked tobacco products was minimal from 2020-2025 & key target missed by a wide margin. @janethoek.bsky.social @bmjtobacco-control.bsky.social tobaccocontrol.bmj.com/content/toba...

Trump tried again and again to stop the first, large-scale offshore wind project in the country from being built off the coast of Martha's Vineyard. I sued Trump and I won. This is a victory for clean energy, good jobs and lower utility rates in Massachusetts.

I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/

OFFS. When Iran tried to interefere in 2020, researchers caught them and called them out. Then the Benz-Weiss-Taibbi-Musk-Jordan-Trump axis labeled those researchers "censors" ... and set about defunding them and dismantling their organizations.
