I do not recognize America in ICE’s cruelty. CT is standing behind Rihan & his family who came from Afghanistan to escape torture & death because they helped our troops & kept them safe. Free Rihan & abandon this abhorrent effort.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

MAGAs are flooding Twitter in the right wing sphere — trying to create the false impression that their “SAVE Act” is about “common sense universally popular voter ID”. JD Vance, Elon Musk, & Scott Presler are all over this. They claim to have 50 votes so far. We must push back. #NoOnSave

Yes, the GOP’s new Voter Suppression bill, the so-called “SAVE Act,” would also disenfranchise many of the 69 million women who took their husbands’ last names, as explained in my one-page summary below. Tell your Senators “NO on SAVE!” 5/

This one weird trick could stop US women from voting | Arwa Mahdawi The Save Act – which would do the opposite of its title – could have a huge impact on the midterm elections

The GOP blames women for undermining them on issues like abortion & ICE & thus hopes to pass the “SAVE Act,” which will make it harder for married women who changed their last names to vote. But they want you to think it’s about “election integrity”. 1/31/26 #HandmaidsTale 1/

Women who took their spouses’ last names (& others with name changes) could get around the birth certificate problem if they have passports. But not everyone has one. And getting one takes time & $$$. The GOP’s bill doesn’t even offer to cover the expense, making it equivalent to a poll tax.

The GOP wants to “DOGE” our state voter rolls. Their so-called “SAVE Act,” wld require ongoing voter purges using citizenship data from sources such as the DHS’s “SAVE”program & SSA.

It proposes *no penalties* for erroneous purges but potential *prison time* for erroneous registrations. WTF?! 1/

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

“We are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. 

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

'Mr Nobody in Russia' furnishes a deep look at life in Russia under Putin after his invasion of Ukraine. It's a country increasingly like Russia at the time of the death of Stalin, where a whole generation is being groomed for perpetual war against America and Europe.

Trump’s rush to build nuclear reactors across the U.S. raises safety worries A new program at the Department of Energy is pushing the development of nearly a dozen new reactor designs at breakneck speed.

A new Trump program “will fast-track construction of new & untested reactor designs built by private firms, with an explicit goal of having at least 3 nuclear test reactors up & running by…July 4.” Critics worry that the tight deadline & “lack of transparency” are “compromising safety.” 12/17/25…1/

Important work here from the NYT. Ross wasn’t run over. He dropped his cell phone, which he had shifted to his left hand to draw his weapon. And then he shot and killed a person with the gun in his right hand.
