If Hellmann’s wants to talk about what’s ‘real,’ let’s talk about the hens. ‘Cage-free’ still means crowded, filthy conditions, and suffering hens. Their vegan mayo is the only one that's 'real' kind to animals. #SBLX

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

Trump’s EPA has gutted lifesaving environmental protections, including limits on harmful chemicals and toxic pollution produced by:

-Gas and coal power plants
-Oil and gas refineries
-Petrochemical & chemical manufacturers
-Pesticide manufacturers

For the first time ever, wind & solar have overtaken coal in global capacity. That doesn’t mean generation has flipped yet (soon)— it means the world is now building far more future power from sun & wind than from coal. Capacity leads. Generation follows. Storage finishes the job. #Bettrification

It appears @davidcorn.bsky.social was right. NBC did censor Green Day. They're likely terrified of Brendan Carr, who's apparently "investigating" The View for not bringing on enough weird, boring MAGAs to anesthetize their audience. www.themirror.com/entertainmen...

This is Amalia. She was a healthy 18 months old until ICE threw her in a camp.

She ended up with Covid, RSV, pneumonia & respiratory failure.

She fought for her life in the ICU… and then ICE put her back in the camp.

A court order got her released, but hundreds of other kids are still trapped.
Toddler hospitalized with respiratory failure was returned to ICE detention and denied prescribed medication, lawsuit says
The 18-month-old was sent back to a South Texas facility after days in intensive care with severe respiratory distress, according to a federal lawsuit.

The U.S. Virgin Islands always deserve transparency but especially when they're at the center of national news like the Epstein case.

We spoke to journalist Shirley Smith about her efforts to fix the territory's archaic public records laws.

Super Bowl Sunday felt like the right time to remind folks what real team work looks like.

I’ve always believed Texas is full of heroes. Not the movie kind… the real kind. The teachers. The workers. The parents. The folks showing up every single day trying to build a better life.

Best bet is to presume anyone calling for us to just move on from the Epstein files absolutely knows why they are important and they want that truth suppressed.
Last week the far right started peddling a narrative that the outrage over Epstein is a moral panic. Today, like clockwork, a more polite version of that narrative appears in the Atlantic.

An EV is a high-tech computer on wheels—software-defined, upgradable, efficient. ICE is a clunky remnant of the combustion era—mechanical, wasteful, capped by physics. One evolves with code and batteries. The other peaked last century. ICE won’t be a debate, just something in the rear-view mirror.
