Thirteen U.S. troops died trying to get these people to safety — Afghan interpreters, soldiers, and the families of our service members. Veterans spent sleepless nights during the chaotic withdrawal fighting to keep them alive. Now our own government is going to abandon them.
Someday, with luck and hard work, she will have a name too.
I don't want to hear anymore bull$hit from #MSNow hosts about how Joe Rogan is turning on Trump; Joe Rogan is doing what's best for Joe Rogan and his podcast.
Oh, momb! I do that all the time 🤦🏻♀️.
In your scrolling today,
you will come across something
that makes you mad.
You can’t avoid it.
And you shouldn’t avoid it.
But you also need an antidote
to all that anger.
Here’s one.
Squirrel the sheep one of the happiest sheep I know
If you think legislation that targets “low enrollment degrees” only impacts the humanities please look at this list. Degrees in chemistry, math, physics, political science, data analytics, psychology and economics are being eliminated. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/04/16/o...
An arched support at the CTA Thorndale Red Line Station covered with mosaic tiles depicting open books, basketballs and bicyclists, among native grasses.
Books, basketballs and bicyclists.
Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.
Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon!

Fewer than 30 Asiatic cheetahs remain in the wild, all in Iran.

And they shut down the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force, and ODNI’s Foreign Malign Influence Center. And DOJ announced it was severely curtailing prosecutions under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
We all now have ringside seats to see a great power self-immolate for no valid reason.
IMPEACHMENT NOW. We know that only the VP & Cabinet can invoke the 25th amendment, so Congress's only recourse is to impeach the president.
So far, 2 IL lawmakers repping Chicago constituents have called for impeachment: Rep Delia Ramirez (IL-03) & Rep Jan Schakowsky (IL-09). How about the rest?
Really like the railroad bridge photo
What will happen to the 82 USFS experimental forests around the country? Many sites have decades-long experiments that are tracking how forests are changed by timber harvesting practices and climate change. As I say here, “you can't just pick up an experimental forest site and move it to SLC.”
i want a trillion dollar annual budget for nasa and interior so anyone who likes science and nature can get a cool job
2 military stereotypes (Hegseth is 1):
1) guy who puffs out his chest at the gym & brags about how badass he is: he's never done anything
2) guy who brings beer to the comms, supply and intel folks: he'd never admit it, but he's done some crazy shit & knows he's only alive cuz of the support units
Another one of those what-if-it-happened-in-another-country moments:

"A young tech entrepreneur who recently moved to Florida got upset when he ran into obstacles while trying to build a house on the habitat for the endangered Florida scrub-jay.
So he filed a lawsuit attempting to strip the bird of its federal protection."
Trump is lying about the Iran Nuclear Deal. It is the exact opposite of his claim that with the deal “Iran would now have an arsenal of nuclear weapons.” FALSE. If the deal were still in place today, Iran would not have any HEU, would be 2 years away from a bomb. newrepublic.com/article/2082...
I said this in replies elsewhere, but I want to say it loudly here.
Anything other than a fullthroated affirmation of birthright citizenship in this country by SCOTUS is an act of treason. It is grounds for immediate impeachment. It is a violation of every oath they have made.
Breaking news: A committee led by the interior secretary voted to exempt oil and gas companies from complying with the Endangered Species Act when drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, which could threaten species facing extinction.
How cool is this?
Very cool.
