Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Watch with sound on.

How does it feel to be an Iranian right now? 🧵

People who treat him like he’s Jesus when he’s as opposite as a person can be are more troubling to me. I grew up evangelical, and I can’t get over some churches’ embrace of him.

If this wakes them up, great.

@drstaceypatton.bsky.social has an excellent take on this on her Substack.

I think that this effort, by @katherinepomps.bsky.social and @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org, will prove to be one of the more consequential analyses conducted during the first two years of this administration. Its findings are incredibly alarming, but they can be addressed.

anyone attending the white house correspondents dinner is a fucking traitor

I get it, but Trump doesn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with Carter, whose lasting legacy is spending his life in service and working for peace.

Everything Sad is Untrue by Daniel Nayeri is one of the most beautiful books I have ever read.

@gallup.com Please reconsider your stance on presidential approval ratings.

In the meantime, I will assume you are trying to hide the fact that DJT is historically unpopular and that you are fundamentally untrustworthy.

My sense of Minnesota today is that there’s less tear gas and the same amount of unlawful detention, destruction of families, loss of livelihood, people in hiding.

There is less tear gas at places like Lake and Lyndale, so it’s not making news.

He’s upset that Becoming is trending on Netflix and it’s so lovely and human.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Jailed for refusing to abide by FDR's Exec Order 9066, he took his case against internment all the way to the Supreme Court - and lost. Remember him on Korematsu Day, January 30th. 1/

Over 100 priests arrested in Minneapolis for protesting ICE in Minnesota where today it's -21 degrees outside MSP Airport.

The clergy gathered in prayerful solidarity to demand airlines cease contracting deportation flights to DHS.

Article title: Agenda Seeding: How 1960s Black Protests Moved Elites, Public Opinion and Voting Article Abstract How do stigmatized minorities advance agendas when confronted with hostile majorities? Elite theories of influence posit marginal groups exert little power. I propose the concept of agenda seeding to describe how activists use methods like disruption to capture the attention of media and overcome political asymmetries. Further, I hypothesize protest tactics influence how news organizations frame demands. Evaluating black-led protests between 1960 and 1972, I find nonviolent activism, particularly when met with state or vigilante repression, drove media coverage, framing, congressional speech, and public opinion on civil rights. Counties proximate to nonviolent protests saw presidential Democratic vote share increase 1.6–2.5%. Protester-initiated violence, by contrast, helped move news agendas, frames, elite discourse, and public concern toward “social control.” In 1968, using rainfall as an instrument, I find violent protests likely caused a 1.5–7.9% shift among whites toward Republicans and tipped the election. Elites may dominate political communication but hold no monopoly.

I’ve been studying civil rights protests for 20 years. With new mobilization against Trump’s agenda, I’m sharing a thread summarizing my research on how nonviolent & violent actions by 1960s activists and police influenced media, elites, public opinion & voters. 1/ www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

I’m seeing lots of people on here misunderstand the purpose of ICE watch.

It’s de-escalation. And it’s grounded in the social science of violence. 🧵

In extraordinary message, Fed chair announces that he’s being extorted/coerced by the US government under color of law.

how is this real

Fantastic reporting here.

I think I confuse the algorithm. I homeschool because my autistic son begged not to go back after COVID. My husband is a teacher and I am pro public education and actual science. (Lots of liberal homeschoolers are. No one talks to us.)
But it is scary what I see in those spaces.

The article does challenge it. Which is refreshing.

Why doesn’t any reporter ask him, “Why do you think you won’t get into heaven?”

That she told them not to use the word “synergy “ tells me she hasn’t spent five minutes in any kind of newsroom.

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

Trump seems to back off Portland military plan: 'Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?' President Trump had said he will send troops to Portland to protect U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, which he said were "under attack."

This is an absolutely extraordinary, revelatory quote. Why is the NBC affiliate in Portland the only place reporting it? www.kgw.com/article/news...

The only way to see the US as a historically white country is if you pretend Indigenous Americans don't exist and you ignore the fact that African Americans have been in this country longer than most of its white people.

The way US history is taught from k-12 affirms the lie of white supremacy.

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

the lesson of the kimmel thing is that a corporation that previously caved to trump was forced by its audience to defy him.

they're afraid of him but they're more afraid of you.
