What an unbelievable cluster F….
Just to get back to where we were as of January 2025, we will need Manhattan Projects across multiple agencies. This particular loss will produce exponentially increasing human injury and economic damage to the U.S. as the ability to investigate and to regulate falls apart.
I know so many dedicated and brilliant scientists who work (and I guess now worked) at EPA. The loss of expertise and ability to make science-informed decisions will have lasting damage for our health. Academics and advocates will have to try to fill the gap.

CONFIRMED: Neri Alvarado, the Venezuelan man imprisoned by the Trump admin without due process for 4 months in El Salvador because of bureaucratic errors stemming from his autism awareness tattoo honoring his brother, is FREE.

Two things both true:

The loved ones of Venezuelans are celebrating that they are no longer in CECOT; some are celebrating their return home.

And.

It is a violation of international law to cause someone to be returned where they’ll be persecuted. Most of them never got a chance to make that case.

"The bitterness is still there. The anger about what happened to him is still there.”

After four months, more than 200 men sent to El Salvador have been released from CECOT and returned to Venezuela. @nlanard.bsky.social and I spoke with family members and friends waiting to be reunited with them.
"We were kidnapped"
On Friday, more than 200 Venezuelans disappeared to a megaprison in El Salvador returned home. The horror stories are already emerging.

> “This is a distraction!” has been a clarion call of our age. Those shouting it from the rafters have rightly identified the source of Trump’s power, but their pleas have always felt impotent, as like a luddite throwing a fit outside of a Best Buy, because that’s not how anything works.

"For Melissa Hortman’s last day at work, they draped her coffin with pink flowers and filled the cold marble under the Minnesota Capitol dome with the green and growing things that she loved."

Former President Joe Biden paid his respects in person, and mourners waited in long lines to honor Melissa and Mark Hortman, and their dog Gilbert, as they lay in state at the Capitol.

When you rip up an agreement that was clearly working and supported around the world, you’ve chosen war over diplomacy, and that makes you the biggest loser the world has ever known.
NYTimes has a long history of holding conservatives—including its paid columnists, like Stephens here—to absolutely no standards whatsoever, but still worth noting the complete lack of ethics required to not mention how 99.99% of Iran's uranium stockpile was due to Trump withdrawing from JCPOA.

I know, justice moves slowly, but give me a break. How is this still going on across our country? shame shame shame on those people people acting on these orders.
This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

@maddow.msnbc.com just imagine what the country would look like today had the border bill that was going to pass with bipartisan support, actually become law. There was a reason individual one pulled the plug on it and we’re all watching that reason unfold before our eyes.

If individual 1, has the power to call out the Guard and Marines today, why didn’t he do so Jan 6? I can’t imagine what is going through these soldiers minds, being put in such a diabolical predicament.

Just how removed from reality and the average, everyday American, is he? Asking you, Article 25.
what ... what are the youths calling groceries these days?
Trump to UAE president: "We have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food, it's a pretty accurate term but it's an old fashioned sound but groceries are down."
