Per Politico citing 6 diplomats familiar with the matter, Trump admin is excluding the UK, France and Baltic countries from a NATO meeting on alliance’s future next month in Poland — after threatening to deploy a “naughty and nice list” against governments that have run afoul of Trump’s priorities.

I am ecstatic that @governor.ca.gov just signed AB 2222, historic legislation I authored w/ @asmchrisward.bsky.social that vaults CA to the forefront of protecting & rebuilding journalism in our communities. This is the capstone to vital work that began 5+ yrs ago, & our road has not been easy.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Samuel Alito has recused himself from a Supreme Court climate case, after ethics watchdogs uncovered his fossil fuel stockholdings. Instead of relying on the justices to occasionally do the right thing, we need Congress to enact real SCOTUS reform.

The mind that boggles at this phenomenon—the inevitable result of putting violent xenophobic assholes in power and letting them run amok—is probably reeling at all sorts of basic cause and effect situations.

By raking in $2.2 billion last year, President Trump made the equivalent of a presidential salary about every two hours. And he made the median American's annual income about every 10 minutes.

“For women who’d gone to college decades ago, the ones who’d spent their undergraduate years marching and protesting,” Jennifer Weiner writes, fury over the Cornell sexual assault case “was laced with a kind of bewildered exhaustion. How is this still happening? Shouldn’t things be better by now?”

I'm looking at this & all I hear is Hegseth calling our own military leaders clowns. There are a lot of people that have long distinguished family history w/ the military plus the families of every enlisted service man or woman right now reading this and I can't imagine any of them are liking this.

Would love to watch Bill Clinton's spit-take when he hears Newt intro'd as "one of our nation's best minds." (History lesson: Clinton wrapped Speaker Newt around his little finger in the 1990s, much as Xi et al are doing to Trump now.)

Jack Smith's wife, Katy Chevigny, is a documentary filmmaker and producer. She's neither currently nor has she ever been a federal or state employee. She's produced or directed more than 30 documentary films and won a number of awards for her work. Kennedy is grossly abusing his position and power.
