I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Spreading the word. @fda.gov should reconsider this denial.
I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.

She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.

But the FDA recently denied its approval.

Now, her health hangs in the balance.

Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

Do not believe, for one moment, that tariffs on non-US made movies and TV series will help our US-based industry. It will hurt theaters; it will contract our business even more.

Incentives, worker protections, creative development are the way forward. Keep fighting the good fight, y'all.

The lesson from 2015-present is that the cringiest, most obvious observations have been the most correct: the women’s march, the resistance libs, the never-Trump Republicans, those who said there was a difference between the parties on foreign policy and immigration.
Darkly funny how Russiagate turned out to be 110% true but everyone decided it was cringe and therefore it’d be better to pretend it wasn’t.
🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

This is a good step. I can't help thinking, too, of the makeup/tattoo artist (+ others not mentioned in the news) who didn't get due process. Not to mention-a torture gulag in El Salvador should NEVER BE AN OPTION.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
