NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Yesterday, the Trump admin opened up all 1.6 million acres of the Arctic National Wildlife Reguge's Coastal Plain to oil and gas drilling. This land has never been developed. It's sacred wilderness.

I am actually sad to have to say this since I have admired much about Disney CEO Bob Iger over the years, but what a profoundly quisling move this is by someone who knows better. It’s shameful and he has tarnished his once proud reputation.

Exactly this

I really can’t tell anymore if they believe the things that they are saying or this is all just a weird performancebut anyway here’s david sacks calling paul graham a leftist

Kudos for a real Olenna Tyrell move by @rosie.com

I know this revelation will come as a shock to you.

Circling back on this…

Tonight, hours after the Paul Weiss news broke, an associate at Skadden Arps sent a firm-wide email: "Please consider this email my two week notice, revocable if the firm comes up with a satisfactory response to the current moment...We do not have time. It is now or it is never..."

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first. Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.

NPR’s @npr.org book of the day 🙂 www.npr.org/2025/03/11/1...

For all the TRUMP = STRONG propaganda this is *exactly* what his “leadership” was like in Covid. Constant zigging and zagging, self-contradictory, incapable of commitment, wanting to have it both ways. It was a disaster!

Let's blow up their notifications and tell them we stand with @algreen.house.gov! @bera.house.gov @jahimes.bsky.social @houlahan.house.gov @repmarcykaptur.bsky.social @repmoskowitz.bsky.social @gluesenkampperez.house.gov @tomsuozzi.bsky.social Reps. Case, Costa, and Gillen are not on Bluesky.

Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

I told you all @jeffbezos was feral. He’s now killed the Graham/Bradlee legacy of justice, the First Amendment and basic humanity in a vomitous spew of nonsense, testosterone fueled (and HGH) double talk that is more than a little pathetic and utterly shameless.

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

🤔

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

jamelle is correct

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Vance’s lies about Haitian immigrants destroyed their lives with bomb threats and violence but lets paint a target on a female reporter for telling the truth. Jesus.

I know what we should call this movie

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

2 insurrections, same President.

“Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him.” - Ezra Klein

Willing to allow Trump to ignore Congress, impound funds, and eliminate agencies - all of which is wildly illegal - to save their fire for the really serious battles.

A foreign-born private citizen with unfathomable wealth & deep financial ties to our nation’s adversaries has seized control of our government and is currently canceling congressionally apportioned spending without a shred of authority. And no one seems to be able to stop him. So this is fine.

Literally have been telling this dude this for a very long time. Keep up, Chuck. Also: WTF are you going to do about it?

Please repost to join this apt apology to our neighbors.

Not one iota of self-awareness in sight

Remember: The tariffs aren’t about economics, and DOGE isn’t about fiscal responsibility. They are both about ••psychopathology**.

Trump apparently directed the Army Corps of Engineers to meddle in local water policy and angered a whole bunch of farmers—and likely his supporters—all to try to win a political point. The water appears to be directed to recently *FLOODED* farm lands.

I want to stress something important. I know about the Times’ owner, and his interference in the Ed page (and maybe more). But without the LAT, you would only know what the White House told you about this. Support journalists and journalism. www.latimes.com/environment/...

Holy shit. Remember that Patrick Soon-Shiong had demanded that all op-ed pieces be run by him first, but to then change the argument of the piece entirely... I feel sorry for the journalists who work there

I'm always surprised at how many people don't know Blondie's version is a cover. I love both versions. Here's the Paragons. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQXq...

There’s been a kind of…fashion of late to view anti-Trump libs as lame and cringe and just annoying, aesthetically. I remember this exact same aesthetic judgment in the run-up to the Iraq war. The earnest libs were right then and they’re right now.

Because they are evil, we must stand up to them. But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.

NEW: Nearly every California Republican in Congress fled the state to Mar-a-Lago as LA continues to burn.

Huge gratitude for our neighbors, Mexico and Canada have sent fire fighters and army to help us.

Or that Brendan Carr, Trump's pick to head the FCC, sent Meta a letter right after the election telling Zuck that fact checking was against the First Amendment and Carr was poised to take action if Meta kept fact checking. www.fcc.gov/sites/defaul...
