This is an important win.

I have been anxious for so long. It is like I am trying to break the world record for how long you can consecutively be anxious.

Today a court blocked co-Presidents Trump and Musk from shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. This fight isn't over. The case will continue in court, and all of us need to keep fighting for the agency that has returned $21 billion to families who were scammed.

We win again! TRO granted in our VOA case -TN

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

I was one of the first Members of Congress to call on Pete Hegseth to resign because our communities demand better than his incompetence. www.portlandtribune.com/news/oregon-...

🚨 NOMINATION PULLED Trump announces he is pulling Elise Stefanik's nomination to be ambassador to the United Nations. The White House was concerned about the Republicans' slim majority in the House.

I have found that my greatest joy comes from making something with great care and sharing it with others, and I'm never going to let anyone steal that joy from me. There is no shortcut to that.

TUESDAY IS ELECTION DAY! I hope everyone knows that, this is a biggie. What you probably don’t know is that there are elections in AK, CA, CO, DE, FL, IL, KS, MS NE, OK, SC, WI and TN It’s not just the three races you know about even in those two states. 1/2

Another win

Top GOP Senator Roger Wicker just called for an investigation into Trump officials for sending classified military plans on Signal and lying about it under oath. This is turning into a massive scandal that even Republicans can’t ignore.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING Democrat James Malone DEFEATS Republican County Commissioner Josh Parsons in the special election for Pennsylvania SD-36 — FLIPPING a district Trump carried by 15.4% in the 2024 election. A huge upset victory for the Democrats.

Unique to America, our health care system is designed not to make people well, but to make CEOs & wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. The result: We have the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy country on earth. How cruel, how immoral is that? We need Medicare for All.

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

So Trump is now saying he didn't sign the Alien Enemies Act after originally saying he signed the Alien Enemies Act 🤔

1 week Nestle Products Boycott starts today.

We aren’t talking about numbers on some spreadsheet when it comes to Donald Trump’s cuts to Medicaid. These are real people in real communities whose lives are on the line. Speak up, stand up, get engaged – it’s going to take every single one of our voices.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

BREAKING: DOGE tried a fast one to get around our Appointments Clause preliminary injunction—moving a DOGE person to USAID staff Judge just called BS, rightly so 👇

🔥BREAKING: A federal court ruled in favor of AFSCME case to block DOGE's access to Social Security Administration. Elon Musk and DOGE were ruled a grave danger to Social Security & must delete private data & BLOCKED them from further sharing, accessing or disclosing OUR Social Security information.

NEW: Judge Boasberg issues a show-cause order (precedes contempt sanctions) on why he shouldn't find that the gov't defied his orders. "In an ex parte pleading delivered shortly after today’s deadline, the Government again evaded its obligations." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

BREAKING: GOP Minnesota state senator Justin Eichorn, who was caught in a sting operation, resigned under fire Thursday after he was charged with soliciting a minor for prostitution. Before the Senate could vote on whether to expel him, he submitted his resignation in an email to Gov. Tim Walz.

The Trump administration just shut down a food safety committee to prevent bacteria in baby formula. They are also threatening to fire employees who prevent deli meat from being infected with Listeria and applesauce from being laced with lead.

this district hasn't had a Democrat representing it in Congress since the 1960s

What would you do? How would YOU handle this if this was your child? Your grandchild? WATCH this! And then tell the Republicans in Congress that when they're burning down this house, there's people still inside. #SaveMedicaid

Breaking News: A federal judge just ruled that Elon Musk has violated the Constitution for dismantling USAID and ordered employees to have their access immediately restored.

In a stunning legal rebuke, a federal judge has ruled that Elon Musk and officials from the Department of Government Efficiency must reinstate nearly all functions of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

Judge Theodore D. Chuang of the U.S. District Court in Maryland ruled that the Defendants’ unilateral decision to shut down USAID likely violated the US Constitution. Indefinitely blocked the agency’s dismantling and barred Musk’s staffers from accessing sensitive personal data maintained by USAID.

BREAKING: A court overturned Ohio's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth. This is a critical victory for trans rights.

In every story that matters, the bad guys win for a time. Or they are in power at the start. They cause/caused harm & hurt, they terrorize and strut about as if they are invincible. They aren't. Stay hopeful. Stay vigilant. In every story that matters, a battle is fought and the light triumphs.

BREAKING: Chief Justice Roberts enters the fray, condemning those who are calling for the impeachment of judges

Gross. Pathetic.

A rare statement from Justice Roberts in response to Trump's post this morning: “For more than two centuries, it has been established that impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose.”

One small thing that gave me hope this weekend was arriving yesterday morning to folks at my UU (where I’m not yet a member but will be soon) loading up the community fridge outside. It’s a little thing but it helps to know that good people still exist, and care about the survival of others.

STUNNING review of Everything Is Tuberculosis in @apnews.com. "The real magic of Green’s writing is the deeply considerate, human touch that goes into every word. He uses the stories of real people to turn overwhelming problems into something personal and understandable." apnews.com/article/ever...

I missed this bit of great news! And they got back pay, too! Never stop fighting for what you’re entitled to.

Yay!!! A federal appeals panel denied the Trump administration’s request for a pause in the rehiring of probationary workers who were fired illegally.

Chuck Schumer just axed his book tour. One of the most entrenched powerful men in the Senate did that because the People got loud and pissed off. Do not let anyone fool you into thinking that we The People are not in charge. We run these rich fucks when we claim our power. We can stop this coup.

Today, we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before. But the greed of the oligarchs never stops.  Now, in order to get huge tax breaks, they want to cut back on Social Security, Medicaid and veterans programs. Together we can stop them. We must stop them.

If you're furious at Dems who are not fighting, help the Dems who are. We're going up against Elon Musk and the GOP machine in Wisconsin on April 1. Throw yourself into electing Susan Crawford and beating Brad Schimel—and you'll send a message to the whole country.

Yes, they will. They are. @repdexteror.bsky.social listened to her constituents at that mtg. I was there (I'm one of the tiny blips in the center L of this photo) and the energy in that room spoke volumes. We aren't alone, we are seeing proof of that at these events and it inspires us to act.

President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders. Read ALA's full response: www.ala.org/news/2025/03...

Democratic Governors and AGs are on the frontlines fighting back the Trump agenda. Democrats need to clearly communicate we’re winning in the courts and have the working class’s back. www.cnn.com/2025/03/16/p...
