MSNOW reported the pipe bomber was a trump supporter. Marcy Wheeler pointed out the 22-day gap missing from the arrest affidavit. Now DoJ wants you to believe this guy has no political affiliation?

Peter Thiel says he’ll leave California if they pass a 1% wealth tax on billionaires for five years. So… how much would it take to make him leave the U.S.?

Let’s talk about something not many people are chatting about and what’s actually happening right now.

You might wonder why Imran Ahmed and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) suddenly became targets of the U.S. government. The honest answer is that their research hit where it hurt.

The holidays bring a lot up for people. Some are full of joy. Some are just trying to get through the day. Wherever this lands, it’s okay. May today give you a moment to breathe, a reason to smile, and a reminder that you matter.

"Shchedryk is not just music, it is a story of resistance. Its composer was murdered, its Paris premiere nearly sabotaged by Russian agents, and today, amid a war that seeks to erase Ukrainian culture, Shchedryk is still played around the world," Mariana Hirniak, a journalist, in this op-ed.

For decades, the FDA made it impossible to know which factory your prescription drugs were manufactured in.

ProPublica built a tool to show you. Here’s how we did it.

Consumers don’t know if their medications came from factories that used dirty water, were infested by insects or birds, or were outright banned from shipping drugs to the U.S.

Our new app provides answers that the FDA won’t.

@warren.senate.gov publishes a report listing all the $$ that Congress gave to DOD to do DOD things that DOD instead spent on Stephen Miller's snatch and grab.

As you look at these numbers, think how much cancer research could have been funded.
