"Democratic Rep. Kim Schrier of Washington pressed Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to reassure parents that the vitamin K shot is safe. He refused and pushed back..." www.propublica.org/article/more...

Trump does not know the best words. In fact, one could argue language is not his first language and that he’s regurgitating a can of alphabet soup.

What just happened in Dallas County is one of the most blatant voter suppression operations I've ever seen—and it happened in a *primary*. In March. Imagine November. I broke it down here: open.substack.com/pub/objectio...

Ring cancels its partnership with Flock Safety after surveillance backlash

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

“It brings up mixed emotions to represent 🇺🇸 right now… there’s obviously a lot of things going on I’m not the biggest fan of.” #Olympics2026 #TrumpsAmerica

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Block instantly.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Even in death, women are denied the bare minimum of respect. This pathetic, rage-filled coward—after murdering her in cold blood—called her a “fucking bitch” mere seconds after shooting her dead. The contemptible misogyny doesn’t even pause for a corpse to cool.

Democrats say Donald Trump molests children. As president, he's been far more likely to starve or deport them. Two Pinocchios.

Between OH, KS, CA, VA and now this huge win in UT, Democrats have quietly strung together an impressive streak of victories over the past few weeks that have, surprisingly, pushed the mid-decade redistricting war closer to a draw.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

@teenvogue.com Your political articles were what you did best. You made a huge mistake letting go of that staff. And now this. It’s gross.

The government shutdown is especially tough on men, who are losing $1.00 for every 75¢ a woman loses.

This wasn’t that long ago… A reporter asking white folks in 1964 what they thought about the Civil Rights Act. And the answers are just 🤦🏽‍♂️

Go head Madam Speaker. She is me right now! 🔥🔥

I thought they said it was wrong for an administration to ask a social media platform to take stuff down.

Finally realized what the freakout over Mamdani becoming mayor reminded me of, and it's the freakout over the first black mayors in southern cities. New post at CAMPAIGN TRAILS:

Check the timestamps. On CNN’s website, the uploaded interview starts at 2:52. On their YouTube page, the upload starts at 2:47. The “plenary authority” comment by Miller was at 2:41, as shown in my side-by-side video post. CNN should be reporting on what Miller said. It’s news!

Oh, that’s a good one.

This moment is a test. Donald Trump wants us to blink first and hand him over power. We have too much to save to give in. Protecting the American people is too important a task for us to give up before anything even starts.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

JUST NOW AT THE UN…

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power. The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

If the shooter had killed a leftist podcaster, he would have a multi million dollar Go Fund Me to cover his legal fees tomorrow, and an interview lined up with Charlie Kirk.

I had no wish for him to be murdered, but I’ll harshly judge anyone who flies their flag at half staff for that hateful extremist or talks about honoring his memory. There was no honor in his life.

Donald Trump and Republicans are carrying out an extraordinary attempt to seize congressional districts and stack the deck for the 2026 election before voters even head to the polls. The Republicans’ goal is to steal enough seats to control Congress no matter how the public votes & to hold power

what a humiliating way for don jr. to find out his dad sends birthday cards.

Just saw someone refer to Cheryl Hines as The Marvelous Mrs. Measles and 💀💀💀💀💀💀

UNBELIEVABLELY sweet moment between a peacock chick and their parent. Not sharebait. I COULD NOT believe my luck. Last year I had seen the chicks about 3 weeks later, I was determined to get them younger, and this one DID NOT disappoint! SQUEE - o - meter 10/10, thank you birds! 🥰 🐣 🪶

"I hold the bottle to his mouth while he cries, and I cry with him." This Palestinian father says he had to feed his infant child expired formula milk, as a man-made hunger crisis worsens under Israel's ongoing war on Gaza.

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

"They released their insane asylum population into our country" -- Trump still thinks that people who make political asylum claims come from insane asylums

#ProudBlue 1/4 Question: when was it that so many resistors decided it was OK to channel MAGA? Texas is going through absolute hell right now. I have seen several posts along the lines of #FAFO or “you got what you voted for”. Really?

Brilliant truth-telling Edolf take down

Wait. We're letting people who look like this just snatch people off the streets now?????

Now even someone on ketamine, mushrooms and Ecstasy can see it.
