If Joe Rogan is the voice in the wilderness on the disappearing of migrants to El Salvador, then the Dems really need to rethink their caution. And the Bluffer-in-Chief is musing about a third term and Trump's gullibility with Putin is coming through loud and clear…

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.
Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz are responsible for an egregious mishandling of classified information that put our troops in danger — and they've refused to acknowledge the gravity of this breach.
They need to be fired or do the right thing and resign. Now.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.
Tomorrow is the cloture vote.
KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️
Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.
Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
Tomorrow is the cloture vote.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

My daughter's daycare just sent out an email about potentially needing to layoff staff because new babies about to start withdrew because of parental job losses. So if you're wondering how government layoffs and mass contract cancellations will affect the economy, here's an example

G. Eliot quote title for A Hidden Life comes from says it all: The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.

Finally watched #TerranceMalick "A Hidden Life" last night. Been on my watchlist for 3 years. I knew it would be heavy and a commitment (and great). For whatever reason, felt compelled (and had the time) to watch. I think it's his best #film. Came out in 2019 - resonates profoundly in 2025.

Was toying around with #AI image generators. Seems pretty obvious that most of the leading ones have settings that don't allow negative imagery of Trump to be prompted. Other people are fair game though (love you Pee Wee).

If they're going to take responsibility for dismantling the U.S. government as we know it, they ought to be named and known.
The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.
Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
