In late 2018, Trump released Abdul Ghani Baradar, one of the top leaders of the Taliban, along with 5000 other Taliban fighters, in exchange for... *checks notes*... nobody.

Paul Whelan was arrested in Russia in December 2018.

Donald Trump was president until January 20, 2021.

@marlenewells Depends on what you’ll use it for. I started with the series 0. This year I upgraded to the Ultra because when the weather cooperates, I swim laps for an hour. My series 5 needed to go back on the charger after that. I’m really happy with the Ultra.

🚨🚨🚨 WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. H*LL.

Please boost to get the word out and call your Senators and MOC tomorrow. This can't be ok.

@Bethany @jimstewartson One Religion. He believes (contrary to the constitution) that the US should be a Christian nation.

The DOJ getting frustrated with the Trump team over returning classified documents has asked a federal judge to hold them in contempt. I would think charging obstruction might be a better use of their time.

When objects are overlapping, it’s handy to use Tab to select shapes. Pressing repeatedly cycles through selecting objects. This works in Google Slides, Google Drawings, PowerPoint, and Keynote.

"Religious liberty" doesn't mean you get to impose your religion on everyone else. Quite the opposite.

👤 I showed 5th graders how to trace a photo to make a silhouette with the Curve tool in #GoogleSlides. It’s often easier and less frustrating to draw overlapping chunks.

When we see the splits between non college educated whites and college educated whites, remember that college is where many are exposed to Black people as social and intellectual peers for the first time.

And remember that GOP is desperate to get rid of affirmative action.

Part of the dynamic with the Trump Team contempt motion is that the lawyers are afraid to sign certifications of compliance, given that their client can't be trusted.From the standpoint of the law, someone has to attest to compliance and of course subpoena recipient has to comply

Perhaps the most-terrifying space photograph to date. Astronaut Bruce McCandless II floats completely untethered, away from the safety of the space shuttle, with nothing but his Manned Maneuvering Unit keeping him alive. The first person in history to do so. Credit: NASA

The reports are that Howell hasn't considered the motion yet or held a hearing. Presumably, lawyers like Corcoran and Bobb, the ones involved in the certification of compliance, will point the fingers at others and ultimately Trump in seeking to excuse their noncompliance.

In the wake of Dobbs, Congress has restored a measure of security to marriages and families by passing the Respect for Marriage Act.

We're one step closer on our journey to build a more perfect union. We'll never stop fighting for equality for LGBTQI+ folks and all Americans.

The House just passed an atrocious $858 BILLION in annual defense spending.

That's $45B more than Biden even asked for.

Health care?

Defense spending?
"Here I just found an extra $45 billion dollars laying around."
