Rep. Jim Himes after being briefed by Adm. Bradley:

"What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service. You have two individuals in clear distress without any means of locomotion, with a destroyed vessel, who are killed by the United States."

Racism, conservative ideologies and endorsements of authoritarianism have been linked to low intelligence.

Just posting this reminder today for no reason at all.

Also, anyone who thinks RFK Jr’s war on vaccines is “a force for good” shouldn’t be a journalist. Can’t be trusted to understand and convey reality.

The "Quiet, piggy" moment will normalize and spread Trump's hate for women a tiny bit more.

UNLESS, we use it to help expose how misogyny—like all the right's strategic hatreds—is just another self-destructive con that only rewards the worst men on earth.
Trump's denigration of women is part of the authoritarian playbook. Here's how to stop it.

Where's the 24-7 coverage on Trump's declining health, inability to stay awake DURING TELEVISED events, cankles, two MRIs, and lack of stamina?

Where's Jake Tapper?

NYT?

Fox?

Corporate Media?

I genuinely do not understand why ‘RFK Jr wants to kill thousands of American kids and make millions sick’ isn’t in the news basically every day. Also, why are Republicans OK with killing kids? Is it because they’re so busy covering for pedophiles that they’ve given up on kids entirely?
Breaking news: Federal vaccine advisers selected by Health Secretary RFK Jr. are planning to vote on ending the practice of vaccinating all newborns for hepatitis B and to examine whether shots are behind the rise of allergies and autoimmune disorders.

The new chair of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices said the panel plans to vote to end universal hepatitis B vaccination at birth and to scrutinize if childhood shots cause allergies.

I just signed a petition launched by the gender justice nonprofit UltraViolet demanding that SiriusXM drop Megyn Kelly. Kelly's comments minimizing Jeffrey Epstein's abuse of teen girls are reckless and irresponsible. Pedophile apologists should not have a national platform. app.sosha.ai/s/YEUF4YBt

After Mercedes Wells shared her experience, more Black women are telling me about their birthing stories. This was not an isolated incident but proof of systematic racism.

My WELLS Act creates strong discharge rules and better racial bias training so moms get the care they deserve.

The worst part about the boat strikes - regardless of who ordered what and besides the ultimate tragedy of lives lost - is they’re forever a stain on the professionalism and dignity of the United States military.

They’re an insult to every American who ever sacrificed to do the right thing.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

The Trump administration has been pursuing third country removals for noncitizens in the United States since coming into office, sending migrants to unknown countries. @mboaz.bsky.social explores how these removals likely violate due process for these individuals.
Due Process in Third Country Removals
The administration’s use of ad hoc procedures to send migrants to countries with which they have no connection likely violates due process.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

This tired, deeply-damaged man is so needy. He has to have references to him being president on his hat, on his shirt, and on a golf-framed placard next to his overcooked cheeseburger he's almost too-out-of-it to eat.

🧵This 58-year-old nurse from Maryland is seen being violently dragged along the ground by officials in Ghana.

Trump deported her there.

This abhorrent & disgusting abuse of a woman who saved American lives and cared for injured and ill Americans for 30 years.

All the details below are worse.

My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.
