The Republican chairs of both the House and Senate Armed Services committees signed a letter yesterday stating that they requested specific info many weeks ago on these strikes and the WH & Pentagon have refused to provide it. If the story is fake news, then turn everything over.

EPA just okayed PFAS “forever chemicals” on produce. Protect yourself by choosing organic, avoiding sludge-fertilized farms, buying local, and asking grocers to reject PFAS. Shifting spending to PFAS-free farms pressures the industry to stop.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

The FBI accessed and spied on a Signal group chat that was organizing immigrant “court watch” efforts in NYC.

I feel like this should be bigger news.

You aren’t supposed to be able to spy on Signal chats.

Were they invited? How did they get access? Was there a warrant?

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

Trump is close to implementing a rule that would end long-standing legal protections for whistleblowers among senior federal employees

The rule would follow Trump's proposal to change employment standards for federal workers to minimize dissent.

When a Weather Forecast Office (WFO) is knocked out of commission, their duties are assigned to another WFO. But some NWS offices are so specialized a typical WFO can't handle their responsibilities, such as the Storm Prediction Center. If SPC is knocked out, their duties are transferred to USAF.

The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food. The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of PFAS — also known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.
