People are re-creating famous artworks with their pets and whatever else is lying around washingtonpost.com/travel/2020/04…

This is so awesome. I have a new favorite clip…

Republican border sheriffs are repeatedly telling anyone who will listen: Big Bend already has a God-made wall. If someone can cross over hundreds of miles of this terrain, they won’t be stymied by a small piece of steel. Washington bureaucrats at DHS aren’t listening.

A journalist reported a missile strike. Then came the death threats. wapo.st/4lI6Pon

@gtconway3d To be fair, he didn't say American president

My sources say it was former president John Barron

🚨This has to be seen to be believed. Donald Trump just explained how he asked the White House doctors to intervene after Neal Dunn was given a terminal diagnosis BECAUSE HE NEEDED HIS VOTE: “Mike called me, and he said, "Sir, we're up by three, but we're gonna lose one by June." I said, "Who?" "Neal Dunn. He's a congressman." Great congressman. Incredible. He called to say that he was terminal, uh, really bad heart. There's nothing they can do. I said, "That's bad." Number one, it was bad 'cause I liked him. Number two, it was bad 'cause I needed his vote.”

Previewing the Bay Lights with artist Leo Villareal ✨ The lights first lit up the Bay Bridge in 2013, an idea from @IlluminatedArts founder Ben Davis. The grand relighting happens this Friday. Story @KTVU at 10 pm

My money is on former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández … the convicted drug trafficker Trump set free in November.

NEW: A federal judge in Colorado has ruled the Trump administration's threat to SNAP (food stamps) benefits in Colorado is illegal and rooted in retribution for keeping Tina Peters in prison.

@RichardGrenell @NYTLiz So.. any ideas what you'll do next?

Elizabeth Williamson isn’t a journalist. She is a left wing hack who lies about Republicans. All the time. I’m not falling for her agenda-drive tactics. I’m exposing her. Here is the text exchange I just had with her proving she lies. @NYTLiz should be fired. Can you imagine putting in writing that you will just say I declined the comment because you don’t like my comment? The New York Times should launch an investigation into her previous work.

It's so weird to me that there's a pro-Kennedy quote from Nixon in this article. Judge halts RFK Jr.’s vaccine overhaul, citing flawed process wapo.st/4lAtQd1

"Excuse me, pal, I'll tell you when you've finished"

@NikoNakar @childishgamzeno Needs to go in the Library of Congress

So now... the wall is happening, and the most rugged, pristine lands in the lower 48 are about to be destroyed. Along with my family's river and horseback business, and thousands of other jobs in this unbelievably special place. readtangle.com/trump-border-w…

Wasn’t expecting the last 5 seconds of this video

You can’t take Pooh to school without everybody knowing it, but Piglet is so small that he slips into a pocket, where it is very comforting to feel him when you are not quite sure whether twice 7 is 12 or 22. He has got more education than Pooh, but Pooh doesn’t mind. ~A.A.Milne

this was the most important Oscar speech of the night tbh "Mr. Nobody Against Putin is about how you lose your country. What we saw when working with this footage is that you lose it through countless small, little acts of complicity: when we act complicit when a government murders people on the streets of our major cities, when we don't say anything when oligarchs take over the media and control how we can produce it and consume it, we all face a moral choice. But luckily even a nobody is more powerful than you think."

These photos come from inside the Cottonwood Fire burn area in Nebraska. A trail camera owned by Jordan Adams went straight through the wildfire and was left completely melted. When he recovered it, he carefully opened the camera and found the SD card inside was still intact. The photos were saved. They’re date- and time-stamped, giving a rare look at how quickly the fire moved through the landscape. Photos courtesy of Jordan Adams.
