In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “It is grimly entertaining to see this most ‘masculine’ of administrations reflecting stereotypes about female behavior that long kept women out of power,” our columnist Maureen Dowd writes.

Our Numbness to Gun Violence Is a Spiritual Failure

Trump officials tried to reopen negotiations in recent days, but Harvard refused. Instead, the university has accused the administration of breaking the law.

Harvard Plans to Use Trump’s Haste Against Him as It Fights Funding Cut
Harvard’s lawyers suggest the administration was sloppy when it froze billions in federal funding. A mundane but crucial law is essential to the university’s case against the government.

This is remarkably good — and effective. More of this, Democrats.

love when our billionaire overlords make it so that billionaires can evade taxes by firing irs agents and doj investigators and dismiss multimillion-dollar corporate fines levied before the chevron repeal because they're "unconstitutional" but you poor saps, you have to pay up right now

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Like many MAGA sagas, Noem's entire story makes no sense. She had family visiting, so she was carrying cash. Why did she have her passport? Why did she need cash to buy her family gifts? How was a Secret Service protectee's bag stolen in a public place?

Cory Booker just passed the 24 hour mark. He's been speaking for a full day straight. 20 more minutes to break Strom Thurmond's record.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

We're not done yet | 18F

Is Donald Trump going to respond to Musk’s email and report on what he did last week? To help, I’ve gone ahead and done it for him. A thread:

Lots of folks are asking what they can do to be helpful in this moment. I like the short list of action items that @choosedemocracy.bsky.social lists on their site. Democratic civil society is about being stronger together. Any effective strategy flows from that. choosedemocracy.us/what-can-i-do/

"Today provides an urgent reminder that we must work together to ensure that no child or person has to suffer because of who they are. Today and in the days to come, let us work together to affirm and protect the dignity of transgender people."

God Loves Trans Kids. Recent Laws Do the Opposite
Individualized, age-appropriate gender-affirming care saves lives; recent anti-trans legislation seems aimed at creating a political wedge issue.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

“I had a feeling that there were people watching what was happening and wondering, Was anyone going to say anything?” Bishop Mariann Budde explained. “Was anyone going to say anything about the turn the country’s taking?” So, she took a breath, and spoke. nyti.ms/3WtmNY2
