A new form of intimidation targets federal judges: hundreds of unsolicited pizzas sent to judges and their children across the country. It’s an innocuous delivery with an ominous message: “We know where you live.” cbsn.ws/4l4PoOC

I have an even worse feeling about THIS:
In Indiana? Send a letter to your legislators and Gov. Braun and demand they oppose mid-decade gerrymandering:

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.
Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.
The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.
I loved your gorgeous book. I reviewed it on Goodreads and gave it 5 stars.
Why, for the first time, do I not feel in a celebratory mood today?
Today, we’re gonna talk Peter Theil. If you think the heritage foundation is bad, you haven’t met Peter Theil.
Catch you after the video.
The true meaning of ‘We Are Stronger Together’. 💙
63% of Americans did not know that 6 million Jews were killed in the Holocaust.
They undoubtedly know little of the shocking conditions of the ghettos, restricted travel, the violence, the torture, death camps & the fact that Trump is following Hitler's playbook.

Intimidation is key to authoritarian regimes. Their cruelty and inhumanity knows no bounds. Absolutely despicable.

This is some scary shit—and everyone needs to pay attention because it could affect any one of us.
Rachel Maddow & NPR just blew the lid off Musk’s DOGE team. A whistleblower at the NLRB says they accessed data without authorization and breached security.
The potential motive is pretty shocking.

The first two statewide elections of the Trump era have underscored a vital truth:
Libraries are not red or blue, liberal or conservative, left or right—they are essential.

Car prices will go up $6,000 (per abc news) because of Trump’s tariffs!
And, he lied to our face. I watched his press conference. He said egg prices were 50 cents and gas below $3 a gallon.
I think he meant eggs were 50 cents for one and gas just went over $3 a gal.

I am enjoying seeing all these #handsoff protests springing up around the country in towns both big and small. It's a hopeful thing to witness in such dark, scary times.
And I love these DC protest signs.
A large "Hands Off" protest scene in Bloomington, Indiana photographed looking across a rainy, wet Walnut street toward the Courthouse square. Hundred of people holding signs milling around to protest Trump's agenda.
Today's "Hands Off" protest in Bloomington, Indiana. There were probably 500 to 600 people present, maybe more, all willing to protest Drump's agenda, even if it meant standing in the rain. #handsoff #indivisible #indivisiblesci
Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements
America, you f**ked up!
She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored her—because it was never really about the economy.
Now folks are scared, struggling—and we’re cooked.
IMLS staff were placed on administrative leave following the Trump Administration’s Executive Order, which eliminated federal funding for libraries.
Take action today!
