I would be confident betting every thing I own that it is 100% illegal to remove anything that has been put in someon's letter box

Yes, the fact that I'm attending the White House Correspondents Dinner might SEEM like a supine gesture of complete deference to the insane dullard who demands total obedience from the press, BUT that's until you see the secret message I have on my pocket square

Today in Baltimore, We Proved This Fight Is Working DHS went to court to defend their ICE warehouse plan and walked away with a judge openly laughing at their argument.

"Over the past several months, our community has built a blueprint that other communities can use when federal agencies attempt to move detention infrastructure into their neighborhoods..."

Ex-model, arrested by Aventura police and deported, causes White House stir — Miami Herald A Brazilian brought to the U.S. on an Epstein plane at age 16 lashes out at the Trumps, saying she was betrayed by her friend Melania.

for those who missed it, here's the reason behind Melania's batshit crazy "press conference."

Welcomed to Seattle by "Wonderwall" playing in this combination bar/indoor mini golf spot; feels right tbh

it's so cool how comfortably employed legacy journalists can just follow a bunch of independent journalists, rip off their stories, and still pretend they are better than the rest of us.

An NYT headline reading: Homeland Security Expands Deportation Fleet With High-End Jets

My headline from April 15 reading: Water is wet, and DHS's 'deportation fleet' boondoggle expands under Markwayne

The hed and dek of my story from February reading: ICE FLIGHTS Noem's luxury 'deportation' jet is the tip of the ICE-berg Kristi Noem's DHS has acquired at least nine new aircraft in recent weeks, with another one on the way. Half are luxury jets. Gillian Brockell 26 Feb 2026 - 9 min read

Hey @nytimes.com, I already reported this earlier this week.

And the G650s you mention? I reported on those in FEBRUARY.

You credit NBC News and WSJ for first reporting parts of your story. Please credit me, too.

Bill Nye and hundreds of Planetary Society members are heading to DC on Monday to protest the White House's proposal to slash NASA's science budget in half.

These cuts were announced as the Artemis astronauts were on their way to the Moon:

ICE Arrests 85-Year-Old French Widow Who Married Her G.I. Sweetheart

Not only did the sons probably call ICE on her, the day after her husband died they took their dad's cars, leaving her housebound. Then they rerouted mail, causing her to miss a visa appointment & the utilities to be turned off. Tony and Gary Ross are going to hell.

Plenty of info at the link, but see thread for more details.

Fucked up story, and also note how many people would lose jobs and get totally fucked if they can’t get $1600 together to get out of jail.

We Called Out the Pentagon for Undercounting U.S. Casualties in Iran. They Keep Doing It. After we exposed what one source called a “casualty cover-up,” the Pentagon offered another lowball count.

The FY 2027 NASA budget request hides its science cuts by omitting mission names instead of explicitly zeroing them out.

We did the work and found 54 missions cancelled in this proposal.

This is another extinction-level event for NASA science.

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: “THIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

This is the face of a lunar scientist who has just been told that the #Artemis II crew saw SEVERAL impact flashes (the flashes when meteors hit the lunar surface) in real time 😃 🌓💥

This is:

1. Deeply moving.

2. The first time I've ever seen a real-life astronaut be anything other than serious or happy in space. Obviously they have been (they're human), but folks on earth have only ever seen this in movies or on TV.

Imagine watching your tears of grief float around you.

What a beautiful moment.

I think not enough people understand that the pushback against renewables and EV's is money.

Without getting too in the weeds: renewables cannot ever be as profitable as oil and gas.

EV's don't make as much money as gas guzzlers.

That's it. That's all you really need to know.

BBC admits it can’t even read “strongly worded” post cuz it violates broadcast rules. Be proud, America.

do you ever just. The Moon ?????

I feel like this is maybe not the combination of traits we want in the guy running the biggest AI company in the world

The Artemis II mission seems good because it is.

People seem excited by it because they are.

It looks like a testament to the value of teamwork because it needs many people working together to succeed, and it’s succeeding.

One of the best things about this is how straightforward it is. Authentic.

that the president is making unhinged threats of war crimes on easter sunday should be an immediate presidency-ending scandal and that the media is rewriting this as just a normal negotiating tactic should be a career-ending scandal for everyone involved
