Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I sent those deaths threats directly to him in a text message & informed him of what his name calling & words were doing - it was a direct assassination threat on my son. And he was extremely - I won't repeat what he said - but it was extremely unkind. No sympathy. No care"

“Ignorance is becoming socially acceptable.”

Meteorologists talk of death threats from the army of crazed conspiracy theorists who believe the government can control the weather.

omg. Kat Abughazaleh just posted that if she's elected, she'll swear in on a copy of Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower.

If you were elected to public office (never mind whether you'd ever actually run), what book would you swear in on?

Vaccines aren’t the only near-miraculous medical intervention some Americans are turning their backs on. New research out today finds that more newborns are not receiving a safe supplement that protects them from serious bleeding.
More Parents Are Refusing Vitamin K for Their Newborns. Here's Why That's a Bad Idea

This court-ordered 'transparency' feels like managed theater, a distraction from the deeper corruption. Trump signing the act while his DOJ slow-walks the real files proves this system protects its own.

hoping the EU has the sack to fight fire with fire. all Trump aligned oligarchs, above all Elon Musk, should be considered enemies of European freedom
This is far beyond 'NATO as we've known it is done.'

"The Trump administration had “a clear and consistent vision for Europe: one that prioritises US-Russia ties and seeks to divide and conquer the continent, with much of the dirty work carried out by nationalist, far-right European forces.”

have never used instacart and this guarantees i never will

absent adequate privacy and consumer-protection laws, we really should stop enabling the dystopian, tech-fueled profiteering world they desire
EXCLUSIVE: We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items.

It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores too.

Our months-long investigation with @consumerreports.org and @groundwork.bsky.social found it could cost families $1200/year.
