Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it.

If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why?

Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

New review of "Everything Is Tuberculosis" in the @nytimes.com, which calls the book "earnest and empathetic," which is really all I wanted it to be. (And also all I want to be.) www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/b...
Book Review: ‘Everything Is Tuberculosis,’ by John Green
In a new nonfiction book, the Y.A. novelist describes the disease as a window into “the folly and brilliance and cruelty and compassion of humans.”

A sneak peek for Thursday's little print edition. It's enormously sad to see communities experiencing so much fear and uncertainty.

We do have raccoons, though. And a Record Store Day walk is coming up – shopping and a show in collaboration with @humpdaynews.bsky.social.

Rubio's gutting of USAID is illegal and unconstitutional. There is no form of democracy anywhere of any kind that would allow the executive branch to unilaterally cancel budgets and programs passed by the legislative branch and signed into law. It's utter lawlessness.
