Astronomers say they have found the strongest indication of life beyond our solar system, on a planet 124 light-years away called ‘K2-18b.’ While they have not declared the finding of life, they detected “potential biosignatures” that are typically produced by living organisms like marine algae.

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

One of the biggest applause moments from the @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov rally last night in AZ? When it was pointed out that we have to hold not just republicans to the fire but hold Democrats accountable. Yep. A party that aligns itself with the right is no party of mine.

This account has long been a champion of Women’s Sports, which is why I’m extremely excited to collaborate with @Nike on their So Win campaign (🧵)

Like Sports, the Art World has long been a space where men have received the lion’s share of attention and publicity, and my goal with this partnership was to pair powerful female athletes with artwork by exclusively female artists, bringing both to the forefront. I had a blast making these, and I hope you enjoy! #teamnike

If it’s so brilliant, why not go through the proper channels to audit and make change via Congress? Republicans have a majority- they can pass anything. It’s illegal and corrupt. “This is how democracy dies- with thunderous applause”
