Women are 50% of the population, but less than 0.1% NIH's budget is spent on menopause, and just 8% on women's health overall. You're not broken—the research is. I talked to Dr. Rachel Rubin and Dr. Kelly Casperson about why we need more menopause research and how my bipartisan bill would do that.

…perhaps many things built up over time, but I’m a parent now; if my kids ever did that to me, there are very few scenarios in which I wouldn’t blame myself or see it as my dramatic failure.

how many times will remco do this before acknowledging he could be an incredible stage hunter. not every talented rider needs to chase gc top 15

Every single person who voted to give billions more to ICE last month should be ashamed. Not one more cent of our taxpayer dollars should fund this lawless, rogue agency.

lauren southern is a cautionary tale of how this ideology will destroy you

Here it is:

a lot of the pundit class is constantly saying "what is the one liberal tenant that democrats must vigorously denounce in order to win the next election???" and the answer at the moment is "mercy"

Donald Trump threatening the destruction of an entire civilization is madness. He is completely unfit to serve as President of the United States. Invoke the 25th Amendment. Or Republicans must stand up with us to impeach him. We cannot allow him to set fire to the world.

“A whole civilization will die tonight," is plainly threatening genocide and war crimes. Congress MUST step in. Republicans need to join Democrats to take action. Call Congress back into session—we should vote to end this war immediately.

Turns out covering up for pedophiles isn't a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0

Two-year-old Kaleth is being locked away at the Dilley trailer prison. He is getting sicker with each passing day. He will not eat the food CoreCivc serves, which detainees have said sometimes has mold and worms. He now has a fever.

US transit data is out today, and Seattle's Link remains one of the fastest-growing rail systems in the nation, with ridership up 9% in the wake of the extension to Federal Way Ridership should increase even further at the end of this month when the 1 & 2 lines are connected🧵

NEW ANALYSIS: UK emissions fell 2.4% in 2025 as coal fell to a 400-year low. Incredibly, we used less coal last year than than in 1600, when Queen Elizabeth I was on the throne and Shakespeare was writing Hamlet. All the details in our article: www.carbonbrief.org/...

Let me reiterate: THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS TO PERSECUTE LARGE NUMBERS OF DISSENTERS. What they are doing, instead, is using fear and paranoia as a force multiplier: they don’t have to persecute us if we keep ourselves home because someone told us we can’t walk in public without being terrified.

“No, I won’t be eating my vegetables” [scariest face I can muster]

Everybody should watch this and see this woman, who has a baby in her arms and is thrust into basically a standoff, develop courage in real time.

An ICE agent arrests a woman who said "the president is a rapist" for insulting the president. She protests that she actually meant Maduro. They tell her, "Don't play smart, everyone knows which president is a rapist."

Legal falsity aside, I think “our masked, anonymous paramilitary thugs have an absolute right to kill you and your job is simply to trust that they won’t” isn’t so much a defense as a confession

Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.

the problem with schumer’s statement is not that he says the GOP needs to act, that’s factually true, it’s that he says if they don’t they’ll hear about it *from voters* outsourcing responsibility for accountability to the general public

I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

#BREAKING: Former Harvard President Lawrence H. Summers will immediately leave his role as an instructor at Harvard while the University investigates his ties to child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. Dhruv T. Patel and Cam N. Srivastava report.

Paramount just paid Trump a bribe for merger approval. When Democrats retake power, I’ll be first in line calling for federal charges. In the meantime, state prosecutors should make the corporate execs who sold out our democracy answer in court, today.

what makes me especially angry is none of these people will ever answer to the public. i want to ask one of the 86 year old plaintiffs whether my six year old’s friends should have to move because their parents can’t afford a home here?

these people think you're stupid and hold you in absolute fucking contempt

We've just updated the @wired.com guide to protecting your privacy while attending protests with the latest best practices. @agreenberg.bsky.social and @lhn.bsky.social report: www.wired.com/story/how-to...

Elon's legacy ranges from gutting cancer research to setting in motion millions of deaths from starvation or disease. I'll be pushing for Congress to hold Elon & DOGE accountable—for every act of corruption, every disastrous consequence, and every law they have broken.

Do not let these psychopaths live a single peaceful moment for the rest of their lives. They must suffer for what they’re doing to our country and the good people who want to help build it

if we want to rebuild american institutions and earn back the world’s trust after this we cannot settle for half-measures. lots of people need to go prison. lots more need to be permanently stripped of wealth and power.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

A sentence I’ve never previously before written, but here we are: I would *love* to know how the US arms industry is feeling right now. They’re not only facing the loss of contracts to replace gear sent to Ukraine, but the order pipeline from traditional US allies is…vanishing

Meet Gracie Himes, age 20. Her goal: Fight cancer by developing new medicines. On March 3, her dreams were shattered when Trump admin cuts hit West Virginia University, which rescinded her PhD program offer. www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

Reminder: When a person or institution you hate is targeted for illiberal persecution by an aspiring authoritarian, you have to defend them EVEN IF you don't like them. It doesn't matter if you don't like campus protestors or Columbia or the law firms. We must defend them or we're all at risk next.

Earlier today the LA Times had AI-generated counterpoints to a column from @gustavoarellano.bsky.social. His piece argued that Anaheim, the city he grew up in, should not forget its KKK past. The AI "well, actually"-ed the KKK. It has since been taken off the piece. www.latimes.com/california/s...

I think relatively apolitical, or vaguely liberal (or even conservative) but mostly depoliticized white collar knowledge workers really need to be told how much the right wing elite both hates their jobs and hates them personally as people.

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

Voting for the Mayor Who Promised to Blow Up the City Doesn’t Mean I Approve of the Mayor Blowing Up the City www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/vot...

Geo/chrono-location: This video shows A320-214 N289GX #A2F016 - owned and operated by Global X Airlines - being used for an ICE charter flight from Seattle's Boeing Field on Feb. 18 The plane took off shortly after and transported the detainees to El Paso, TX

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Still thinking how Pete Hegseth's entire rationale for being secdef was to get the military to do less touchy-feely stuff and be more lethal and war-capable, and yet at his *first* big-boy multilateral the talking point is "Roll back Russian territorial aggression? Protect Europe? We can't do that!"

Great recommendation for Democrats from @himself.bsky.social www.programmablemutter.com/p/the-trump-...
