NEWS: Facing a likely defeat, @chmnmendelson.bsky.social has again postponed a vote on the emergency bill that would extend the teen curfew zones over the summer months. The bill was short at least one vote, and there was concern over how the White House would respond to a no vote.
Lunch at Becky’s Diner — with Becky herself!
Just Joe Manchin telling us again that he's a Republican who doesn't give a damn about our country.
This is axios, don’t read the fucking story, but I wanted to note how enraging it is for them to say “a job in the administration” and include “Supreme Court justice” on the list.
Every day our National Public Radio spends pretty much a half hour or more discussing the Republicans' latest Middle Eastern war.
It basically boils down to Trump said this, but it's unclear what will happen. They should just say, still no resolution forthcoming as far as can be discerned & move on
Solar panels being installed at the CNNC Tianwan photovoltaic power plant in Lianyungang, China, on April 19, 2026
This offshore PV Power Plant at a Chinese nuclear power plant looks awesome. I sure would like to know what kind of capex costs are associated with something like this. 🔌💡
The RNC has accepted a $250,000 donation from insurrectionist Daniel Deneui.
Deneui was charged with assaulting law enforcement on January 6.
OPEN THE STRAIT. CLOSE THE STRAIT. WE ARE BLOCKADING. LIFT SANCTIONS. IMPOSE NEW SANCTIONS. JD IS IN PAKISTAN. JD IS NOT IN PAKISTAN. STILL BLOCKADING. WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT. THERE IS NO AGREEMENT THAT IS FAKE NEWS. BOMBING AGAIN SOON (MAYBE)!
The President spent more on bombs in ONE WEEK of his war with Iran than we spend in an entire YEAR to help parents afford child care.
Trump & RFK Jr. are asking to spend $500B more for war—but they won't increase funding for child care by a cent.
Construction for Enbridge's Line 5 oil pipeline has started in northern Wisconsin.
Anishinaabe leaders are raising alarms about the threats to the water & covert police deals in the state.
A rally against Line 5 is being held today in downtown St. Paul outside the Army Corps building at 4:30 pm.
The amount of these bigger accounts that think just because people have differing opinions, you're being paid is embarrassing. Trust, if there was a job that just said "Be an asshole online," I would have found it years ago. Goofies. Get out of your privileged bubbles, ffs.

We applaud @senangusking.bsky.social & his colleagues for introducing the Stop CHEATERS Act, which would fund the IRS so it can go after tax cheats while improving tax services for lower & middle income taxpayers.
For every $1 invested by this bill, the gov't will gain ~$13 dollars in revenue.
Is there anyone else who is sick that so many people are celebrating all of the flights that they take on Bluesky during climate week and a global fuel shortage because I'd like to add you to my timeline?
Americans have collectively spent ~$17.6 billion dollars more on gasoline than they did on March 1, roughly $15 billion more, in my estimation, due to the US attacks on Iran. Today added ~$388 million more to the total, down from a peak of $455 million more on 4/8.
Host: The U.S. military has significantly depleted its stockpile of missiles during the war with Iran. According to experts, this reduction is so severe it has created a near-term risk of the U.S. running out of ammunition should a future conflict arise in the next few years.
I get the anti-USA sentiment. It bothers me that since so many people hate California that the fact that they have decarbonized one of the world's largest economies does not get any attention, but I'll try to remember how much you hate them.
For the Ohio brick nerds out here, can you tell us if the bricks read “Hallwood Block” or Hocking or what?
wait for it.

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill.
HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.
Trump’s Bible reading from the Oval Office streams tonight between 6-7 p.m. ET as part of the #AmericaReadsTheBible marathon that's going on through April 25th. I profiled seven of the most unhinged “Christian” leaders that are participating here: christiannightmares.substack.com/p/the-upcomi...
