So many impeachments. So, so many impeachments need to happen before we can move forward.

We Need to Prepare for the Mammoth Task of De-Trumpification The damage he and his cronies have wrought could take decades to repair, particularly when it comes to science and public health.

The task of de-Trumpification of science and public health will take a generation and a "Marshall Plan" to rebuild. Without a bold, expansive vision to guide us, there is no coming back. Small-bore, poll-tested versions of the future will not help us. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Federal Judge Vacates Kennedy Declaration, Permanently Blocks Trump's Trans Youth Care Hospital Threats The judgment overturns the Kennedy Declaration which has been used to force 40 hospitals to drop trans youth care.

1. This weekend, a federal judge permanently blocked funding threats to providers and hospitals that provide trans youth care.

The judge also blocked "any similar policy."

Hospitals have NO excuse and must return to providing care under many blue state laws.

The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive-because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

Really powerful, hopeful paragraph from the latest article in the Atlantic by @adamserwer.bsky.social

Montana Supreme Court Rules Its Constitution Entirely Protects Trans Citizens In Landmark Ruling The ruling will have enormous impacts for transgender residents in the state.

1. In a landmark ruling, the Montana Supreme Court has declared that the constitution, one of the most progressive in the nation, entirely protects transgender people.

The ruling is even insulated from SCOTUS decisions, due to how state constitutions work.

Trump’s Humiliation in Orbán Defeat Stunner Is Only Just Beginning For Viktor Orbán’s epic loss in Hungary to have real meaning in America, Democrats and liberals need to proclaim themselves part of the global anti-authoritarian movement.

The massive Orban defeat should prompt Dems to align themselves more firmly with anti-fascist and pro-democracy forces abroad. There's a powerful link to be drawn between the celebrations in Budapest and the confrontations with ICE in Minneapolis. 1/

Stop New York's Attack on 3D Printing New York's proposed 2026-2027 budget currently includes provisions that will require all 3D printers sold in the state to run print-blocking censorware—software that surveils every print for

New York shouldn't rush a censorship mandate for 3D printers into the budget. Many experts have already warned that it won't work. It's faulty surveillance infrastructure smuggled in a budget bill. NYers, act now! www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Other false media statements identified in the Kash Patel complaint:

1. Special Agents do not, in fact, refer to him as “J. Edgar Shart”
2. Patel did, in fact, know that the FBI is part of the Executive Branch and that Wyoming is a state. He just always looks surprised when you tell him things.

@thisfirepod.bsky.social I'm finally all caught up and now I'm jonesing for the next episode.

I did not guess that CPAC was funded by the Hungarian government. Had not occurred to me. That's a wild one.

Trump is about to drop a “nuclear weapon” on trans youth health care How a report led by a right-wing pundit laid the groundwork for upending gender-affirming treatment

Good long-form summary from Mother Jones on the Trump assault on affirming care to date and what could happen as it continues weaponizing Medicare and Medicaid against hospitals, which together cover early half of all hospital care spending.

Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.

🚨New preprint and our results are rather concerning..

We find the "boiling frog" equivalent of AI use. Using large-scale RCTs, we provide *casual* evidence that AI assistance reduces persistence and hurts independent performance.

And these effects emerge after just 10–15 minutes of AI use!
