Apropos of nothing, just something I think about a lot:
During the worst pandemic in a century, lots of people told a bunch of outrageous lies that caused much, much more death. It was one of the more grotesque moral crimes I've ever witnessed & zero (0) of those involved faced any consequences.
Screenshot of a headline from politico that reads: fears over who can win in 2028 are already surfacing among democrats
Here's the thing: Democrats already know who can win. They know which policies are popular with voters and which candidates are vocally in support of those policies. They're going to throw a billion dollars into trying to prevent those candidates from becoming the nominee.
Wind, solar, hydro, and bioenergy (which isn't really clean but a miniscule proportion of the data anyway)
A milestone in March: for the first time ever, renewables provided more power on the US grid than natural gas.
Kushner being involved as he has deals with MBS is insane
As little as I already thought of the man I'm in awe of what he's accomplished in 15 short months. Historic run. Basically threw away all his fire extinguishers and told every firefighter in town to eat shit, and then set his house on fire. We need a separate Mount Rushmore for morons
It took 20 years to lose in Afghanistan, about ten years to lose in Vietnam, and two and a half years to lose the War of 1812, but Trump managed to get utterly dog-walked in a mere six weeks.
actually perfectly in line with the Reagan's GOP to be against free markets, balanced budgets, sound money, and rigorous observance of the Bill of Rights and Constitution
100 bombs in 10 minutes.
Israel is once again using the Dahiya Doctrine — overwhelming, disproportionate force in populated areas, where civilians pay the highest price.
Here’s how it emerged — and why it matters now.

Full text of Nancy Mace's post: Boating is not a luxury in South Carolina. It’s a way of life. Our state is home to more than 350,000 registered recreational boats and a marine industry supporting over 27,000 jobs and generating a $6.5 billion economic impact. Our No Tax on Boat Loan Interest Act extends the above-the-line loan interest deduction for cars to boats, allowing American families to deduct up to $10,000 annually in boat loan interest on American-made boats. More affordable boats mean more families recreating on the water, more marine manufacturing jobs in South Carolina, and more investment in an industry already generating billions in economic impact. South Carolina STRONG.

In the first eleven months of 2025, 10,109 doctoral-trained scientists left the federal government. The losses were concentrated in agencies that fund medical research, regulate environmental standards and model climate.

The plan to demonize creativity, the arts and entrepreneurship while simultaneously shoving AI products down our throats that seemingly make 99% of things worse isn't going to work. We need the robots do the laundry while the people make stuff robots can't dream of. That's a good future.
A stunning reminder of the value of competence among so much glorification of incompetence
Pete Hegseth's Defense Dept appears to be caught in a lie.
It involves deaths of 21 people (including at least 5 children), injuring 110 in Lamerd, Iran with sports hall and school.

maybe this should be a crime
Kennedy canceled $500 million in mRNA research and announced no new mRNA projects will ever be initiated—killing the technology that produced the fastest vaccine rollout in human history.
Israel's ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza is no ceasefire at all — after killing more than 730 Palestinians, pushing new borders and continuing its brutal starvation campaign.
From strikes to blocking aid, here are some of the violent ways Israel continues to destroy Gaza: zeteo.com/p/israel-des...

The woman being murdered in the video Trump posted was an immigrant. Her name was Nilufar Yasmin. She was from Bangladesh. Trump is weaponizing her death against communities like hers. Outstanding reporting from @pabloreports.bsky.social for Migrant Insider. migrantinsider.com/p/her-name-w...

It’s not a ceasefire if the killing continues on one side. Mass atrocities are being carried out by Netanyahu in Lebanon with U.S. backing. (1/3)
NEW: ICE facilities’ medical staff repeatedly failed to diagnose critical illnesses and misdiagnosed patients, @kolyncheang.bsky.social and I found, during a six month investigation that we have just published.

hey i don't think the president should be posting videos of people getting literally murdered on his personal or official social media in pretty much any context and especially not to try and incite a pogrom. seems like unpresidential stuff basically
