The 22-year-old wife of an Army staff sergeant came to the U.S. from Honduras as a toddler. Last week she was taken by ICE agents from a military base where the couple planned to live and put in detention facility with hundreds of women facing deportation. nytimes.com/2026/04/05/us/…

This is a powerful message if we do it right. Folks like @MalloryMcMorrow & @jamestalarico are showing democrats how to make anti corruption center to their campaigns.

A whole lotta people read this story, btw.

“This really is the first window we have into how basically the modern animal-dominated biosphere was formed and developed and came through this weird Ediacaran transitional interlude,” said co-author and paleontologist Frankie Dunn of Oxford University's Museum of Natural History. to.pbs.org/4ty9rbh

Are we really going to risk nuclear fallout because both political parties are too scared to stand up to a demented 80 year old.

Imagine an American vice-president traveling to Budapest in 1956 to support a pro-Kremlin government. That’s how pathetic the current U.S. government is.

The reason red means "up" on these emojis dates back to 1697 Osaka, Japan. Rice merchants created the world's first futures exchange at the Dojima Rice Market. They needed to chart whether prices were rising or falling, so they built the candlestick chart, called 陰陽足 (yin-yang chart). Rising prices got a red line. Falling prices got blue. The logic came from Chinese philosophy: yang (rising energy, vitality, prosperity) was red. Yin (decline, withdrawal) was blue or black. Red didn't mean danger. Red meant good things are happening. That convention locked in across Japanese finance for 328 years. The Tokyo Stock Exchange still displays gains in red today. So when designers at KDDI and SoftBank, two Japanese telecom carriers, created the first chart emojis in 2005 and 2006, they did what any Japanese person would do: they made the up line red and the down line blue. They weren't designing for Americans. They were designing for Japanese phone users who'd grown up seeing red tickers on good days. It was so obvious to them it probably took zero discussion. Then Unicode made it permanent. When the consortium standardized emoji in 2010, their proposal document literally cited those KDDI and SoftBank designs as the reference. Apple copied them for iPhone in 2012. Samsung in 2013. Google, Microsoft, everyone else followed. By 2018 every major vendor had converged on red = up, blue = down. Nobody revisited the color logic because the spec said to match the Japanese originals, and they did. The reason your brain screams "this is wrong" is because the West maps red to danger and loss ("in the red"). The emoji follows an older system by about 250 years. And no one at Unicode, Apple, or Google has ever changed it, because the original Japanese designs are the canonical reference.

We are now entering the most thrilling phase of Artemis II — humanity’s bold return to deep space. Day 3 — April 3 Orion has successfully left Earth’s embrace and is now speeding toward the Moon. The crew begins critical deep space operations, testing systems far beyond any orbit humans have flown in over 50 years.Day 4 — April 4 Systems checks continue as the astronauts settle into the rhythm of deep space travel. Every system is performing flawlessly in this vast, unforgiving environment.Day 5 — April 5 The Moon grows larger in the windows. The crew makes final preparations for the historic lunar flyby — a moment decades in the making.Day 6 — April 6 Closest approach to the Moon. This is the pinnacle: humans return to the vicinity of the Moon for the first time since the Apollo era. The crew will skim past the lunar surface, witnessing our celestial neighbor up close like no one has in over half a century.Day 7 — April 7 Orion swings past the Moon and begins the long journey home, riding the gravity assist that will guide it safely back to Earth.Day 8 — April 8 A quiet but vital phase — the long coast through deep space. The crew reflects on their journey while the spacecraft continues its flawless performance.Day 9 — April 9 Earth reappears as a beautiful blue marble in the distance. The team shifts focus to re-entry preparations.Day 10 — April 10 Re-entry and splashdown. The fiery return through Earth’s atmosphere culminates in a safe Pacific Ocean landing — mission complete.This isn’t just another spaceflight. It’s humanity stepping boldly back into the cosmos — proving we’re ready to go farther than ever before.Stay tuned for more real-time updates as the mission unfolds!

At this point, it’s hard to call it coincidence or forgetfulness. Decision after decision out of Washington seems to benefit Moscow. Now attacking Iran? That drags U.S. focus and resources away from Ukraine, while pumping money into the pockets of both Moscow & Tehran, exactly what Putin needs right now.

JUST IN - Message from the Artemis II crew as the spacecraft loses radio contact behind the Moon’s far side: “To everyone on and around Earth — we love you, from the Moon.”

Finally

Congratulations to the crew of #ArtemisII on going beyond where no human has gone before! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The overwhelming majority of Americans (polls show over 80%) oppose the deportation of people like this woman. In every previous administration, including Trump's first, this woman would not have been a priority for enforcement. What are we doing here? This is wrong.

The US Holocaust Memorial Museum under the Trump administration has deleted its teaching materials about links between Nazi racism and the Jim Crow laws

This would theoretically cripple international air travel to Philadelphia, where 82% of voters backed John Fetterman. Senator Fetterman was one of just two Democrats who voted to confirm Markwayne Mullin as secretary of DHS.

Canadian Lauren Chen and her husband, who were recently allowed back into the United States by the Trump Administration after fleeing to Canada following their involvement in a Russian-backed intelligence operation which provided millions of dollars to Chen in order to spread Russian propaganda to American Conservatives via her now-defunct Tenet Media, was invited to today’s event celebrating Easter at the White House.
