Bolsonaro ignored a court order to relinquish his passport and is under criminal investigation for money laundering. I thought this administration was *against* letting criminals into the country. Oh, wait . . . not if they are corrupt, election-denying fascists like the man in the Oval Office.

This is such a stupid thing to say. Because if it were true, we wouldn't need a Constitution and Bill of Rights written by humans. And every country would have had the same Constitution and Bill of Rights from the beginning of time.

The Art of the Deal, folks. Donald is such an idiot.

Oh, you poor, simple thing. God doesn’t name hurricanes. A meteorological committee does. Bless your heart.

I keep reading that there have been no public executions in the United States for decades. Not true.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas told the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday that Palestinians in Gaza are facing a "genocidal war," accusing Israeli forces of killing, destruction, starvation and attempts at displacement. https://to.pbs.org/3TTSKe1

Dolly Parton was universally loved because she was a rich person who knew what it was like to be poor, stayed down to earth, and spent her life giving back to others who were less fortunate. The oligarchs who don’t understand why everyone hates them probably won’t learn from this. But they should

Officials in Alaska are warning that ice melt from a glacier high above the capital of Juneau could pose a threat to homes and businesses in the inundation zone.

This is so true. Texans you have to turn Texas back to blue. You have to want better.

A win! The Justice Department has withdrawn the subpoenas seeking phone records and grand jury testimony from New York Times journalists. Always remember that public pressure makes a difference. Thank you!

An essay with a little bit of Anthropology, a bit of US and Cold War history, a bit of AI, and an argument for a broad education.

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

If only someone could figure out how to make milk safe to drink! It'd be such a big deal the process would be named after them.

i have yet to see a single cis person say something about the fact that the government just designated trans people a terrorist group and threatened to kill all of us.

There is no hard evidence that ivermectin can treat cancer, but that hasn’t stopped people from trying it

Important to note that the Atlantic's piece didn't even contain any classified information (this probe would still be outrageous if it did). But the FBI is reportedly now conducting an invasive leak investigation merely to settle a personal vendetta.

This weekend, I finished the final steps in my Anthropology passion project. I’m not entirely sure what’s next, but I’m certain I’ll continue to broaden my anthropological horizon.

BREAKING: We're suing Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. On the heels of a Supreme Court decision that eviscerated protections for voters of color, elected officials jumped at the chance to disenfranchise people — we won't allow it.

Can't wait to get my new passport!

The Moki Queen with her dog. This is a Barrier Canyon style rock art and is believed to be between 1500-4000 years old (2000BCE-500CE). About 4000 years ago coincides with when corn arrives in the Southwest from Mesoamerica. I took this picture in 2024 while traveling in Utah. #archaeology #rockart

Exclusive: President Trump’s expansion of the wall along the southern border with Mexico has damaged a rare Native American archaeological site in the Arizona desert, as the administration moves to rapidly build the $46.5 billion project.

Just a reminder that the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was called, "An act to enforce the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States."

I stumbled across this point while traversing a bench between canyons while backpacking in Utah in 2022. Encountering these traces of human activity stirs the imagination about what life was like when the point was left behind. #escalantenationalmonument #archaeology

We live in a world where Trump can post this, but James Comey apparently gets indicted for laying out some seashells saying 8647 and then apologizing and deleting the image.

The move follows an administration push for cuts to the NSF and raises concerns in the scientific community that it could jeopardize a tradition of independent decisions about federal science grants. n.pr/4t2YxJI

Alongside 120 organizations, we issued travel advisory warning those visiting the U.S. for the World Cup of potential civil liberties and human rights violations.

BREAKING: The Senate narrowly advanced a plan to add up to an extra $140 billion to ICE and CBP's record high budget. This is the first step by Congress to give another blank check to these out-of-control agencies without any strings attached, all while cutting benefits for our communities.

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files. Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas. You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

As people across the country demand Congress reject mass warrantless surveillance, it's clear the pressure is working. But the fight's not over. Keep it up by calling your representative and urging them to vote NO on Section 702 reauthorization at 833-946-2258.

Jim Jordan is commenting on Eric Swalwell's sexual misconduct allegations. Jordan was assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State while team doctor Richard Strauss sexually abused at least 177 athletes. Multiple wrestlers testified under oath they told Jordan. He did nothing. He was never charged.
