“The wrongs which we seek to condemn and punish have been so calculated, so malignant and so devastating that civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored because it cannot survive their being repeated.”
—Justice Robert H. Jackson, Chief American Prosecutor, Nuremberg, 1946

Love France 🇫🇷 They understand the importance of the battery life of a Nokia 3310

Walked by this beauty last night - pretty awesome to see these messages out in the world.
The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks.
The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.
It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

The Pope being anti war should surprise nobody it's not a political position it's a humanitarian one
Brutal 💀
Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater.
This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning.
Never doubt your power to change the system.
The Archbishop of Miami called the Trump administration’s move to pull funding for a Catholic charity “baffling” as the government clashes with the Vatican.
Yes indeed ..the bird understands water displacement

It real funny how Congress keeps failing by the exact number of votes needed to not do a single damned thing.

Voting on spy powers at 2am will definitely help with trust in the government!
This is a well-documented pattern in medical research and reflects systemic gender bias in pain assessment and treatment.👇
Remember this fuck when his name comes on the ballot.
As a woman who suffered intense hormonal headaches during my 2nd pregnancy it was a huge relief and help to my discomfort. Absolute bullshit
The vilifying of a woman’s power to cause a condition that is shown to have a genetic links is horrific as well as dangerous. Teeing us up for more scrutiny
In another massive data set of more than 1.5 million children born between 1997 and 2022, the use of Tylenol during pregnancy was NOT associated with autism, even after accounting for individual risk factors. Autism was diagnosed in 1.8% of children exposed to Tylenol and 3% of the unexposed group.
With a final tally of 213-214, the war powers resolution to disengage US forces from the war on Iran failed by a single vote.
Representative Jared Golden of Maine was the sole Democratic lawmaker to vote against the measure. Had he voted for it, it would have passed, handing Trump an historic loss.
I’m heading to the Senate floor to speak in support of the Direct File Act on Tax Day. Americans spend an average of $270 and 13 hours filing their taxes. It should be free and easy. Tune in here: www.senate.gov/legislative/...
The vast majority of species of bees in the US, around 70%, ground-nesting bees. The new research points to the importance of cemeteries as habitat for ground-nesting bees—an “exceptionally important” pollinator.

Certainly haven't seen the media pushing Trump to resign. No question that former Rep. Swalwell (D-CA) and Gonzales (R-TX) have no place in Congress.
Still, what about Trump? His behavior is far worse in just about every form possible.
NEW: Republicans (and Fetterman) just BLOCKED a war powers resolution in the Senate. Rand Paul voted with all Democrats. Senate Republicans (and Fetterman) are now on record in support of this illegal war.
BREAKING: Elizabeth Warren has introduced a bill that would allow you to file taxes for free directly with the IRS.
The bill has support on both sides of the aisle, and would bring back and expand the free taxing filing program that the Trump administration killed off.
I just voted to put an end to Trump’s reckless war of choice in Iran for the FOURTH time.
And for the FOURTH time, Republicans blocked us to let Trump spend BILLIONS more on bombs while prices across the board are skyrocketing.
Can confirm
Neguse: "Despite all of that, Speaker Johnson made the decision to gavel the House & send everyone home. Now we're back 2 weeks later & what has the majority decided is the most pressing issue to debate? Apparently it's a resolution commemorating a bill that the GOP passed last year. It's absurd."
The Senate vote to destroy America’s most visited wilderness could happen with 24 hours’ notice and the deadline runs out at the end of April.
