The IDF executed two Palestinian men in Jenin. They verified that they were unarmed, told them to walk back to the building, and then shot them dead.

Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?!
& more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward?

People in the U.S. need to be paying attention to what’s happening in the U.K., because it’s going hand in hand with what is happening in the U.S., the agitators at work on both sides of the pond are working hand in hand with each other, and both have similar goals of ethnic cleansing.

This is the Republicans message.

But the world will never know who is in charge or will be soon thus will be unable to trust us regardless who is president at the moment.
America’s message to the tens of thousands of people who fought and bled and died for us is that you are worthless and the small possibility that one of you might eventually go on to do something bad in the future means that if things go sideways, we’ll leave you to die.

The Trump administration effectively says that no one should ever work with Americans during wartime; that our promises mean nothing, our word is dust, and we will throw our allies under the bus the moment we want.

In any future armed conflict, who would ever trust us again?

Politico reports that Marco Rubio has informed European allies that the United States wants a peace deal before offering any security guarantee to Ukraine, a plan experts describe as “giving someone a parachute after they hit the ground.”

Putin does not want peace. He wants Ukraine.
"President Vladimir Putin has doubled down on his core demands for ending the war in Ukraine, stating that Russia will lay down arms only if Kyiv's troops withdraw from territory claimed by Moscow."

Dear foreign nationals in war-torn countries, terrorism hot-spots, and amidst our enemies:

If you help the United States, we’ll fuck you over and abandon you. Not the individual servicepeople or intelligence officers — they’ll fight for you. I mean the depraved, soulless leadership of the nation.
So now they’re going to be doing individualized re-review of tens of thousands of Afghan evacuees’ cases on TOP of the re-review of 200,000+ refugees who entered under Biden?

I don’t normally bitch about this stuff publicly, but after Charlie Kirk’s death, prominent right-wing commentators spent weeks calling me and several of my friends “terrorists” and “fascists.” So, was that incitement to murder?

Again, as with all the other federal budget cuts that are incinerating 20-25% of the funding & the entire budget model of every R1 university in 🇺🇸, this is a five-alarm emergency that requires immediate, loud, collective condemnation by our university presidents. Total 🦗 as it’s all being gutted.
They're trying to break the pipeline for future social science research.

big late breaking news: the market monitor for the largest energy grid in the u.s., covering much of the midwest and mid-atlantic, has called to block new data centers connections to the grid, saying current course of growth assures regular blackouts

The PJM Interconnection’s market monitor urged the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to rule that large data centers can only come online if the grid operator can still meet reliability metrics.

ICE is threatening Judges.
This story is insane and shows these thugs only care about numbers, and ruining the lives of immigrants, not doing anything that makes our country better.
In Rhode Island, ICE arrested an intern who worked for a court, and then a judge intervened to say they had the wrong person.

All leading to a scene where ICE agents surrounded the judge's car and "threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply." www.wfla.com/news/judge-i...

96 immigration judges purged by the Trump admin include "all 10 that appeared on the DHS Bureaucrat Watch List, a website created...with funding from The Heritage Foundation, whose Project 2025 was a blueprint for the Trump admin’s policies and personnel decisions."

Heritage is fascist trash.

Nearly 6 million U.S. households have utility debt so severe that it will soon be reported to collection agencies.

Meanwhile, Trump is giving handouts to fossil fuel companies and making us pay hundreds of millions of dollars to keep obsolete coal plants open.

Trump serves billionaires, not us.

Yes.

And then also fired a ton of senior agents with a ton of counterterrorism experience, including the Acting Director.
Didn’t the FBi pull a lot of personnel from anti terrorism to put them on deportations?

Actually the whole security establishment pivoted

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.

But I won't back down — and neither should you.

Republicans voted to destroy the lives of millions. Trump promised to deport millions, did they think all those millions were violent criminals?
