UNCG, A&T, Bennett and Greensboro College students walked to the polls yesterday. Here’s just UNCG students leaving campus to walk the 40 minutes to their new polling location. You’ll recognize a familiar face with them — Judge Toby Hampson! ⬇️ #SpartansVote

“It is inconceivable to me how you can pardon people who assault law enforcement officers, and then vilify the officers who are trying to uphold the rule of law.” - Jack Smith, Testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee, 2026-09-29

We are where the universe studies itself, and wisdom is turning its quiet beckonings into lamps for the lost and orchards for those who come after.

An increasing portion of our nation’s budget — and your tax dollar — is dedicated to paying interest on our growing national debt. But who exactly receives the interest payments? This is an issue you hear very little discussion about, because the wealthy and powerful would rather you not know

Not just "trying". And not just taxpayers. And not just Americans. And not just your money. He is also stealing your past, destroying or falsifying it, and your future, by targeting not only your wealth but also your freedom and your honor.

Donald Trump is a crook. And he’s trying to steal American taxpayers blind. It will take the overwhelming turnout of American voters—who have eyes to see this theft—to stop this non-stop criminal operation.

Trump has… -Deleted a key anti-money laundering database -Pardoned dozens of white collar criminals and fraudsters -Dropped 150+ investigations into corporate wrongdoing It’s a “New Golden Age” alright — for corporate and white collar crime.

An innovative floating offshore solar project that generates electricity and converts seawater into drinking water. The farm near Gran Canaria produces 85 MW of renewable electricity while using that same power to operate reverse osmosis systems that desalinate seawater #ActOnClimate #renewables

The doctor who claimed that vaccines cause autism lost his medical license for faking for the study. But his lies and the damage he did to public health persist long after his paper was pulled. This is why science communication is so difficult; all it takes is one grifter.

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on - if your position is that the president of the United States and his family should be immune from IRS scrutiny, you’re unqualified to be the Attorney General. It’s an indictment on our entire system that 50 GOP Senators don’t agree.

The most powerful rising force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system. Corporate Democrats refuse to see how big money has corrupted America. They — and their billionaire donors — are some of the biggest enablers of Trump's neo-fascism.

Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.

Cornyn justifies his support for Blanche: "That's one of those things that can't be remedied by a 'no' vote"

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

Jeanine Pirro should be disbarred. It is absolutely indefensible and gross misconduct to rush through a criminal indictment for political reasons before an investigation has been completed, which resulted in false evidence being presented to a grand jury.

90 minutes after Trump appealed, the DoJ filed a motion to dismiss my slush fund lawsuit saying it’s moot because the fund isn’t moving forward. Can’t make this up.

Let’s be clear here, when scientists say mistakes were made at the start of the pandemic, we DO NOT mean that we did too much. We mean not socially distancing quickly enough, not making tests widely available, and not acknowledging COVID is airborne and distributing N95 masks to everyone.

Last night, was the first time I listened to Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" on vinyl. (Wearing headphones) That was like a religious experience.

Donald Trump and RFK Jr. cut the team tracking cyclospora by more than 70%. Now we've got a nationwide outbreak. We should be investing in public health — not gutting it.

Once again, we have passed a War Powers Resolution to END THIS ILLEGAL WAR! No more lives lost. No more taxpayer dollars wasted. No more laws broken. The House has spoken: 214-208. Now will our colleagues in the Senate across the aisle ACT to stand with us to end this war NOW!?

BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani announces click-to-cancel rule for NYC. This rule is aimed at guaranteeing New Yorkers can cancel subscriptions as easily as they sign up — and stopping corporations from trapping customers. This will save New Yorkers up to $162.5 million per year.
