@matthewamiller.bsky.social: "This would be the most corrupt act in presidential history. No complicated schemes, no outside actors, just a straight up looting of the taxpayers to put $230 million in Trump's pocket."

I’m a little worried about the environments all these people who know people with Nazi tattoos grew up in. Was there a father in the home? Were everybody’s pants a little too pulled up?

Tom Homan and the Case of the Missing Fifty Thousand

Lawmakers and ordinary citizens have to keep asking about the bag of cash, or accept an executive branch without any accountability.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

They say this shit and then in the same breath say women should be having more kids. Not to mention millennials being diagnosed with colon cancer in droves, long COVID, and MENTAL HEALTH MEDICATION. Republicans don't want to govern, they want free money.

What are the men doing to deal with the womens loneliness epidemic due to political alienation!?!

Political parties must shift immediately and dramatically to the left to avoid alienating these frustrated and abandoned young women. Am I doing this right?

Andrew Cuomo: taxpayers should pay for $60 million in legal bills for my sexual harassment allegations

Also Andrew Cuomo: $60 million is too much money to spend on a pilot program to deliver cheaper groceries

Hey @govpritzker.illinois.gov, you need to do something about these ISP goons attacking protesters like @katmabu.bsky.social.

literally no need for this

the protesters were just standing there, not causing any problems. then here come the police, causing problems.

I need @govpritzker.illinois.gov to tell these goons to go home. And if he can't or won't do so, I need to know that, too.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

HOW IS THIS OLD BITCH STILL A SENATOR?!

I mean both as someone who is clearly not well enough to serve and as an absolute demon from hell.

a swastika? in a republicans office? of the republican party who all explicitely endorse fascism? no way this could have been predicted

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

ICE just arrested a singing giraffe in Portland.

Protecting the nation’s public health demands data, whether it be new measles cases, a surge in ER visits, or shifting patterns in obesity. The most recent job cuts at the CDC threaten the mostly unseen foundation of that research enterprise.

MMWR stole the show in the first round of headlines about CDC cuts but in the chaos, many missed that the NHANES mobile team remains RIF'd. This is the backbone of this key survey that contains some of the only representative anthropometric, biochemical, clinical and dietary data on the country.

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the 94 million pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the #Trump administration’s cuts to The Emergency Food Assistance Program.

My latest video for @propublica.org.

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

I've been to a hell of a lot of protests and haven't gotten a single Venmo, W9, or anything. In fact, it usually costs me money! I'm out here hating at a loss! It's for the love of the game, Sean!

ICE is offering $50K sign-on bonuses while our military waits in food banks.
