Don't forget that @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social wants to let the GOP get away with all of this. He said let's turn the page and get on with business. He's on the side of the Nazis if he thinks this kind of thing is acceptable in the United States of America. This can't be allowed to slide. It can't.

Every time. This was such a spot-on damning of the "good guys" in contemporary American gov't.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

News: A California DA tried Stanford students with felonies over pro-Palestine protests. Bolts reported the DA was fundraising off of this. A defense attorney dug more & filed a motion to recuse him off the cases. A judge removed him in May + gave cases to the AG. AG just dropped felony charges.

I don't know, the adaptations that have been literal and faithful have been sort of staid and weren't particularly successful. If she can make something interesting and capture some of the magic of the books, why not? She's got a good track record.

The only reason Bonds isn't in the HoF is that he was a giant dick to everyone in the voting pool, and regardless of his prowess as a player (prodigious, steroids or no), those guys will never give him the pleasure of being inducted. Ever.

Darline Graham: I tripped up on one question last night, regarding Taiwan. I don't speak politician. I was just honest. Of course, Taiwan is our friend. But I think people in South Carolina are more worried about boys in girls sports.

New reporting reveals Ohio Republican Gov. candidate Vivek Ramaswamy hired his mother to manipulate clinical trial data for an Alzheimer's drug he owned the rights to. This scheme boosted Ramaswamy's company stock price and generated a $1.4 B IPO, where he then cashed out before the stock tanked.

If Booker needs more than 10 minutes to decide this guy is completely unqualified, then we should boot Booker out of the Senate as well. There is nothing Blanche could say that should be persuasive to anyone with the best interests of the country in mind.

To Democrats and their eulogies: If you say that democracy is under attack by the Republican Party—and it is—and you say that the Republican Party represents an authoritarian threat—and it does—then civility and comity have already been murdered, and shows of comity are utterly incoherent.

There's a lot of misinformation floating around saying today's VRA opinion is fine because it all turns on the question of "intent." After all, they're saying, all you have to do is prove discriminatory intent, so what's the problem? This is a THREAD.

When DOGE arrived at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the operatives had no real background in nuclear issues. They boxed out experienced hands, forcing resignations and massive exodus of talent. Over 400 people have since left or been forced out. Our full story: propub.li/3OBQMwk
Graphic displaying how hundreds of staff who do work related to nuclear reactors and their safety have left and not been replaced. The data is categorized into six sections: Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards, Nuclear Regulatory Research, Nuclear Security and Incident Response, Regional offices, and Other offices. Each orange square underneath a category represents a loss in staff, while each gray square represents an addition of staff. The graphic shows that there have been 443 losses and 57 arrivals across all six of these categories. Note: The data is from the week ending Jan. 24, 2025, through Feb. 13, 2026. Source: Weekly Information Reports from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

This is just astonishingly great reporting. All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them. And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for. Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

This is why it's so frustrating to hear people call this war "just a distraction from Epstein." It might be that for *Trump*. But the architects and executors of this war are religious fanatics, and the US is crawling with them. The whole world is imperiled by these extremist psychos.
