These are real images of exoplanets. Four super-Jupiters, imaged 10 times over 12 years around a star 133 lightyears away. These are real, giant worlds, out there in the dark. And we can see them.

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election. Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.

So, on Amazon Prime, they have censored the movie Robin Hood (2010) and removed the opening crawl where it's supposed to say: “In times of tyranny and injustice when the law oppresses the people, the outlaw takes his place in history”. #Censorship #Robinhood #UniversalPictures #Resist

Offering folks $5,000 to have a baby is wild—especially when y’all are the same ones trying to slash SNAP and Medicaid. The very benefits millions of Americans rely on to survive. Since when did raising a baby only cost $5,000?

This Easter, we should reflect on whether we're the sort of people who, like Jesus, believe in selfless sacrifice, who care about the sick, the elderly, the vulnerable in this world. Or if we're the sort of people who enjoy torture and suffering. *stares at White House*

Pope Francis, who made history as the first Latin American pontiff, has died at age 88, the Vatican announced Monday. His 12-year tenure was marked by outreach to LGBTQ Catholics, concern for the poor and the environment, and warnings against capitalism, war and rising nationalism.

Three former presidents have taken to the public stage to sound the alarm against the current occupant of the White House, despite the tradition that former presidents generally refrain from publicly criticizing their successors. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

washingtonpost.comThree ex-presidents denounce the current one in a two-week stretchWhile presidents have been at odds before, there is often a sort of camaraderie among the small club of individuals who have served in the highest office in the land.

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

Elon Musk has cut somewhere between 0% and 3% of what he promised—and most of what was cut was not waste or fraud or abuse, but simply expenditures Mr. Musk did not personally favor for partisan reasons. DOGE is the biggest program failure in the history of American government.

I am disappointed that today I’m paying taxes to fund government efforts to stop preventing disease and starvation overseas rather than paying taxes to support government efforts to prevent disease and starvation overseas.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

BREAKING: An immigration court determined our client Mahmoud Khalil to be removable from the U.S. based solely on his political speech. The fight isn't over — we'll keep fighting for Mahmoud's freedom and all of our First Amendment rights in federal court.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Trump is trying to deregulate crypto as his personal businesses get more involved in the industry. He also just gutted the DOJ team that investigates crypto fraud. This may be one of most overt conflicts of interest in presidential history and it's hardly a blip on the news.

Trump is exploring legal avenues to “deport” U.S. citizens to El Salvador, where the administration has arranged for individuals to be held in a prison notorious for human rights abuses.

Think about how much of an entitled prick you’d have to be to think calling other human beings “peasants” when you’re the Vice President is an ok thing to do. The world’s worst diplomat strikes again. Also: we don’t borrow money from them. That is nonsense.

As a reminder, when Trump says he is putting massive tariffs on China, or any nation, that means he is putting a massive tax on YOU. China doesn't pay a single penny. You, the consumer, do.

Trump just shut down the DOJ's unit that investigates crypto fraud. Remember: Trump and his inner circle stand to profit from their crypto investments and a proposed national crypto reserve — while taxpayers could be left holding the bag. It's a new Golden Age for corruption.

A lot of people have been asking us about the rumor that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act on April 20th. We want to remind everyone to take things one day at a time and face each battle as it comes.
