Perhaps the vice president should have considered utilizing the services of the vast law-enforcement apparatus at his disposal, rather than googling conspiracy theories on the Internet.
JD Vance: "I remember watching every video of the assassination looking for clues, trying to understand what happened. I tried to hide my friend and that terrible bullet hitting him, but I would try to look around. I stayed up all night for many nights in a row researching every conspiracy theory."

(1/2) President Trump and his administration have spent the past year repressing free expression, targeting artists, journalists, and comedians, and erasing the history of Americans whose contributions made our nation better and more just.

I need you to listen to and share this story - of how Trump is preparing to abandon Ukraine in exchange for Russian money for his billionaire friends.

It could be the greatest corruption of American foreign policy in our history. Russia gets Ukraine. Trump's friends get rich.

Hello @chrislhayes.bsky.social I cannot find the post now, but you asked for book recommendations a while back. I’m always interested in what books people read from the provided recommendations. Can you update us? Thanks from a book lover

I wish the National Guard members photos had prominence here. For news media, please highlight victims. Yes, you will probably show suspect photo when providing news updates but please don’t show together with his image in front. @chrislhayes.bsky.social @cnn.com @ms.now @kaitlancollins.bsky.social

It will be hours or days before there is information about shooting so speculating is unhelpful. Prayers for the National Guard members. Thanks for quick action by first responders

When calling your representatives, please be civil, specific in feedback and or suggestions. The phones are answered by staff, generally young people wanting to serve their country. If needed, scream your rage into a pillow, think about constructive feedback and then call or write.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

"Science is being destroyed across many agencies" say federal researchers.

For my latest @nature.com piece, I spoke to 19 different scientists across EPA, NOAA, NIH, NASA, and USGS to document how science is being dismantled across US federal agencies.
