The Monarch butterfly migration is one of the longest-known, multi-generational insect migrations on our planet. Every fourth generation lives 8 times longer than the previous generations and travels 10 times farther.

Thanks for including me on your list, @markjacob.bsky.social. An honor. I hope everyone adds these fighters to their list of who to follow.

We’re in scary times, but lots of folks in media are doing their damnedest to defend democracy. My Stop the Presses newsletter praises 25 of them and also cites other fierce fighters. See if you agree.

This is Finn. He likes to ominously stand on his hind legs in the water. We've asked him to stop but he won't. Still 13/10 (TT: firstmatefinn)

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

Summer 2015. Several lifetimes ago. A different America. Lindsey Graham, running for president, says this about Joe Biden. The same summer he said Trump would “kill” the GOP with his hateful comments. Several lifetimes ago. A different America.

Trump has pardoned more than 70 allies and donors convicted of fraud. He’s also expected to spend $1B+ on vanity projects around the White House — mostly funded by taxpayers.

Trump is preparing to fire the leadership of the Smithsonian Institution, one of America's most prestigious scientific and historical research and education organizations. He wants in particular to censor the Smithonian's American History exhibits:

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.

Thank you Cabo Verde. Beautiful people, beautiful islands, it was a pleasure to host you. You played very well, we all fell in love with you. You should be very proud today.

No. What’s crazy is that dozens of similar and even worse scandals haven’t taken down our clearly corrupt current president.

JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."

Trump's emergency plea to the DC Circuit to stop removal of his name from the Kennedy Center included this odd reference to a bylaw that had never been mentioned before in the litigation. It's looking increasingly like it was passed last week—and maybe on Thursday, the day before the petition.

Here Trump asserts that center’s “trustees” passed a poison-pill bylaw that requires return of donations if his name is ever removed. AFAIK this has never been alleged before in the litigation. If true, is another shocking indictment of his board of toadies. 2/5
