GOP knows they are in trouble. All manner of cheating is on the menu. Stay informed. Pay attention.
Men, they’ll screw with our right to vote too.

Video: What Our Photographer Saw in Minneapolis David Guttenfelder, a visual journalist for The New York Times, was at the scene in Minneapolis immediately after an ICE agent killed a 37-year-old woman in her vehicle. He walks us through the photos...

the great David Gutenfelder who’s photographed so many of the world’s most intense conflict zones in the past three decades now reporting from his home town

Dems from Texas & NC. Surprise. Vote them out.

Most petty, small minded, bully to walk the earth.

Front page of Courier Journal. Photo runs vertically from bottom to top on left side. The photo is shot from above, of a snow covered sidewalk. Footprints - 2 sets - and a couple of walkers make a dramatic image.

Stunning front page design. -Louisville Courier Journal

Unnecessary. Stands alone just fine.

I,Robot was fun. James - not fun but great. Seven Moons of Maali Almedia was quite different. The Resurrectionist - medical historical/fiction. And then read Frankenstein.

Trump: It was a Great Honor meeting Zohran Mamdani, the new Mayor of New York City!

Morgan, with a smile, makes a gesture while commenting on environmental concerns and media coverage.

What a great evening! Morgan Watkins of LPM and colleagues from UofL, WAVE3, InsideClimate News, and the CJ spoke of how to improve communication with the public about science and the environment.

If we don’t measure hunger, it must not exist.

Nice throw and catch (risky though)

The chickens looked nervous!

Great INT!
It’d be nice to get a call go our way.
Let’s go Cards!

Cardinals are getting tossed around by JMU.

Porch sittin’ on a warm summer day.

I am Democrat Shawn Harris. I am a husband, father, retired General and farmer. I have announced my candidacy to defeat Marjorie Taylor Greene and I know we will together. Her hate and conspiracies do not belong in Congress. Let’s end the chaos together. Share and join me in this fight:

F that. The right to protest is an enshrined right. Especially against bigots.

This sucks. I hope it’s temporary.

Yikes.

U.S. government researchers present 'phenomenal' new data on HPV vaccines A new study seems to confirm that a single dose of the vaccine used to prevent HPV infection is just as effective as two — and, therefore, also helps to prevent cancer.

This is altogether terrific news, and highlights the contributions of the NIH to clinical practice. This kind of finding can save lives. It’s easier to launch a vaccination campaign when only one dose is needed. www.statnews.com/2025/04/28/h...

A huge new NIH-funded clinical trial of 20,000 girls has shown that a single dose of HPV vaccine yields the same response as two doses after 4.5 years. This is critical to public health efforts to save lives with this vaccine.

Yes. We still have to battle RFK Jr. to ensure access to HPV vaccine.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 45 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Holy shit. Video posted by President Bukele’s team on X shows the moments before his press conference with Trump in which Trump tells him: “We want to do homegrown criminals next. You gotta build about five more places.”

(h/t @titonka.bsky.social @michelekelemen.bsky.social)

The laughter is sinister. Everyone surrounding Trump is amoral.

Hold my beer, Justin.
