I don't know exactly what kind of ritual my dog is planning with all her Lamb Chop toys collected on her bed, but I'll report back if I come home to red smoke and ominous Latin chanting.

Ah, yes, the masterful military tactic of calling "no backsies" after you bomb a sovereign country. This is sure to work.

If Trump is serious about making real change rather than just issuing a press release, he will support legislation I will introduce to ensure we pay no more for prescription drugs than people in other major countries.
If we come together, we can get it passed in a few weeks.

Saddam Hussein said the same thing about Kuwait. (He also liked decorating with gold.)
President Trump has repeatedly described the U.S.-Canada border as an "artificially drawn line." But experts say just because it was man-made doesn't mean it's not legitimate.
Trump calls the U.S.-Canada border an 'artificial line.' That's not entirely true

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

These orphaned Virginia opossums are learning to eat solid foods as they grow. In the wild, opossums are omnivores and play an important role in the ecosystem by eating ticks, snails, and even carrion. But fruit is also on the menu—and clearly, it’s a hit!

The Jewish president of Mexico is obviously an antisemite, it seems.
Wow. Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum officially recognizes Palestine as a state. Here she welcomes Palestinian ambassador Nadya Rasheed.
Sheinbaum is Jewish, supports Palestinian self-determination, & unapologetically condemns Netanyahu's attacks on Gaza.
Historic & inspiring leadership. ❤️✊🏽

Hearing about some US universities advising their international scientists (green card holders & visa holders) not to leave the US for the time being for fear that re-entry will be non-trivial even with all the necessary documents in hand.

Hmm, that's funny. I thought the AHA didn't issue political statements. Or is the destruction of the entire academic infrastructure in Gaza not "historical" enough? Where does the AHA draw the line between the political and the historical? I would love to hear them explain it.
The AHA and the OAH have released a joint statement condemning recent efforts to censor historical content on federal government websites, at many public museums, and across a wide swath of government resources that include essential data. 🗃️
