Julie Brown is a hero in every sense. Her relentless reporting ripped open the Jeffrey Epstein case when powerful people wanted it buried. Honestly, I don’t think we’d even be talking about Epstein today if it weren’t for her. Please consider following her: @jkbjournalist.bsky.social

I am 42, feel great, and have normal cholesterol and blood pressure measures.

I do have a family history of heart disease and after a discussion with my PCP, I received a coronary calcium CT study today.

It helps looks for evidence of coronary artery disease and is underutilized in the US

I’ve listened to this clip and read the transcript several times, along with MAGA’s interpretation. Kimmel wasn’t saying the shooter was MAGA. What he was pointing out is that MAGA’s first instinct was to immediately cast blame and point fingers at everyone else. That’s not an attack, it’s facts.

They want to scare us away from fighting for equality, healthcare, education, climate action, fair wages, housing, and justice.

They want to silence dissent to entrench their fascist billionaire agenda.

Don’t let them.

Moore: I take real pride that when I look at my team, these are subject matter experts..

Trump doesn’t have that. He has sycophants who go into cabinet meetings and spend three and a half hours telling him how good he is instead of actually educating him

Why won't any of the sports teams honoring Charlie Kirk play some clips of him? Please show us what you are celebrating. Don't be shy about it. Show us what made him so great. Play his greatest hits.

Just un-fucking-believable that the Wall Street Journal ran that anti-trans story

The day will come when those who propped up this failed regime will be pariahs, desperately scrambling to escape the very disgrace they once enabled

Brett Meiselas: The more Trump talks, the guiltier he seems...Whatever's in the files has to be so bad he called them a hoax, accused Obama of treason, shut down the Epstein investigation, recessed Congress, rushed his attorney to the federal prison to offer Epstein's accomplice an immunity deal...

Meiselas: One of those headlines I had to reread. We’re not allowing the president of Taiwan into the U.S.? Our ally? Trump caved to China’s demand and blocked him. MAGA screamed Dems were weak on China—then did exactly what they fear-mongered about.

Brett Meiselas: Mike Johnson just doesn’t have the cards.

Because if he did, he would say—even if he’s claiming, “Oh, Democrats are trying to wield this for political purposes”—he would say, “I call your bluff. Let’s vote on it. Let’s expose all those Democrats we keep talking about.”
