And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

Looks like the evidence for this weird chemical abundance in an exoplanet atmosphere has gotten stronger with new JWST data: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/s...
Is it really a sign of life? That’s still not clear; lots of analysis left to do. But it’ll be interesting to see how it all pans out! 🧪 🔭

“The clip at which Trump and Elon Musk are selling off the federal government for parts calls for battle-ready fighters—not cowardly appeasers. And the resentment towards them has begun to fester exponentially. That’s to say nothing of the shrinking possibility of free and fair elections next year.”

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed.
Put simply: the right-wing has narrative dominance.

Nancy Pelosi says Schumer is wrong and the House GOP's CR is worse than a govt shutdown.
"Democrats must not buy into this false choice," she says.
"Let’s be clear: neither is a good option for the American people. But this false choice that some are buying instead of fighting is unacceptable."

Study from Yale School of Public Health-2022. We pay billions of $ per yr to suffer at the hands of the insurance industry; many pay w/ their lives.
"in a non-pandemic year, some $438 billion would be saved by single-payer universal health care, like Medicare for All."

Study: More Than 335,000 Lives Could Have Been Saved During Pandemic if U.S. Had Universal Health Care
If the U.S. had had a single-payer universal health care system in 2020, nearly 212,000 American lives would have been saved that year, according to a new study

This thread is incredible. Poetic and sharp.
About fifty years ago, NASA strapped a message in a bottle to a rocket and flung it into the deep dark
It wasn’t supposed to go this far, but it did. Long past its mission, it’s still out there so far away now that a simple hello takes a day to reach it, and another day to hear if it says hello back

FFS MSNBC, a government shutdown will be the REPUBLICAN’S fault and they will bear the blame.
It will be a TRUMP shutdown.
FULL STOP.
