No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

GOP Rep Lauren Boebert is again claiming credit for spending projects in her district after voting against them. In 2024, she told me she'd vote no even if she was the deciding vote.

As a doctor, I am horrified by what I saw at the Whipple detention facility in Minneapolis.
No medical protocols.
No real medical care.
No nurse on site when I visited.
No beds. No real blankets. Extremely cold temperatures. Minimal food.
These conditions are inhumane and unacceptable.

JD Vance says there are 30M undocumented folks in the U.S., In 2025 they were responsible for 29 murders, meaning 1 in a million is a murderer.
On the other hand 22,000 ICE agents killed 34 people in 2025. That means 1 in 674 ICE agents is a murderer.
I know who I'd rather hang out with!

When will the Rep learn that their dear leader demands unconditional loyalty but does not demonstrate loyalty in return. There are strength in numbers y’all. Storm the crown en mass (not literally).

They released him an hour later.

"The agents presumably had a good laugh about this. Perhaps they relished their meal even more because the staff was frightened. Humiliation of victims, a kind of relish in their fear and misery, a kind of sadism has become a dominant part of the culture of ICE."

The occupation of Venezuela is not about democracy. It is not about drugs. It is about lining the pockets of him, his family and cronies. It is about
oil and taking the spotlight off the Epstein files.

2 people close to the WH told the WaPo that Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader Machado, because she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today”

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
