Governor Walz is back on the scene and he’s not pulling any punches. ✊🏼 Good to see you Coach!!

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show: They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.” Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag… Made in Nicaragua. They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee. Legendary.

Women's rights are human rights. They aren't negotiable on International Women's Day or any day. Here in Illinois, we celebrate the contributions of the incredible women in Illinois' history and honor them by continuing to push our state forward.

On International Women’s Day we honor the past, present, and future contributions of women who make our state stronger.

Dear @aoc.bsky.social, I just heard you say you are willing to come to deep red rural spaces to speak to voters. I can make those introductions for you. Let me know! Sincerely, Jess in deep red rural Missouri

@aoc.bsky.social: "Listen, if your representative is not doing a town hall, give me a ring... I'll say it right here, right now: if a deep red Republican district wants to have an honest conversation, even if it's with someone they disagree with, I'm willing to do that."

I am not a scientist, nor do I have a science degree, so when I first heard the word transgenic, I looked it up... I thought the folks on the right were really good at doing their “own research.”

Stupidity has its consequences...

I am excited to introduce the Protect Social Security and Medicare Act with @doggett.house.gov and Rep. Maxwell Frost. We all pay into these programs and are counting on them for essential healthcare and a dignified retirement. This bill will protect them.

CONGRATS YOOPERS! You held a town hall. Bergman was a no-show, and you PACKED it! Thanks to @maddow.msnbc.com for covering it!

Very heartening to see foreign officials mocking him for being a fucking clown. Feels like the garlic to his vampire

I will never look at Care Bears or Ewoks the same way again

Crockett: We had an opportunity to have a woman lead this country and I promise you, she would have led us to the promised land. But instead we got somebody that seems like he wants to take to us hell

The Iowa GOP advanced a bill making it a misdemeanor for a healthcare provider to administer a Covid vaccine. Even when a person has requested a Covid vaccine.

There are no "illegal protests" under the First Amendment. This is just fascism brought to us by an ignorant old man drunk on power.

Look what's happening at the French Embassy in Washington DC.

If you want to eat the most expensive eggs you’ve ever had in your life, you should have backyard chickens. Don’t get me wrong, I love them and have raised them, but they are an expensive hobby.

The stock market is tanking so badly it almost feels like we are being governed by someone who went bankrupt six tim— oh.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

I don't know who this guy is but he's absolute right.

“The military is apolitical and should remain apolitical. Our service members serve regardless of the president’s political party. Their obligation is to the Constitution and their country. Their service should not be in jeopardy because of a political agenda.” www.military.com/daily-news/o...

🔥 WATCH: “This is not some gotcha moment. You posted this on your own page.” The Speech Prof tries to help Tucker understand what it really means that he assumes Black women are bad at their jobs. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGwXw4f...

Dear maga, The global right, who used to admire Trump, has absolutely turned on him and now is openly saying he works for Russia. The right in Canada has dropped in the polls and now openly distances themselves from you. Same with Germany and UK You suck

Friendly reminder: “agree to disagree” can be slightly rephrased as “I value your continued presence in my life more than I care about the resolution of this particular discussion.” There are many perfectly valid cases where this is not true.

That is for sure

I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District. Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

RIP to a true hero

🤦🏾‍♂️

Who could possibly have seen it coming

WATCH: DOGE *savings* are filled with huge lies/errors and take credit for contracts that ended as far back as 2005. (@MarshaBlackburn - any comment?) Again: a charade to pave the way for tax cuts for the rich. It’s about ideology, not efficiency. Full: www.nytimes.com/video/us/pol...

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

WATCH: “I don’t give a fuck what the wears… Forgive us. I can’t believe what I just witnessed in our White House.” Powerful reaction to Trump & Vance ambushing Zelenskyy as Marge Greene’s bf Brian Glenn attacked him for not wearing a suit. Full: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2HmYxmH/

Rieckhoff: He's losing his women and children. His cities are being bombed, and we're talking about his clothes? It was victim shaming, which is what trump has been doing to Zelenskyy and Ukraine since before he got elected. It's unacceptable.

Have you been RIF’ed (insert ambulance chaser commercial here) we we have some info for you.

After that disgraceful display from Trump and Vance yesterday bullying Zelensky, undermining NATO, and supporting Putin, let's show Ukraine that Americans still defend their allies and support democracy. Donate and get updates here: u24.gov.ua #SlavaUkraini www.cnn.com/politics/liv...

There are parts of the federal government that were so good at their jobs that we never heard of them. We are going to spend the rest of our lives wondering why those departments don’t exist now.

Please stop mocking people for talking about elections like “oh isn’t it cute you think there’ll be another election.” You’re discouraging people from voting. Which is exactly what Trump wants you to do.

WATCH: “Not even an hour!” KANSAS Rep. Roger Marshall leaves his own town hall after voters on both sides of the aisle express concern about veterans being fired from their federal worker jobs.

I love this for him.

Happy Women’s History Month. If your feminism isn't already intersectional, it is literally just white supremacy in lipstick.

People in even super-deep-red districts are catching on to Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s robbery of the American people. This is getting good.

Starmer to Zelenskyy: You are very very welcome here in Downing Street. As you heard from the cheers outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom.

I spoke to a sold out luncheon for the Clay County Democrats today…I reminded them to not forget the rural areas all around them. It’s going to take all of us.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.
