Let’s skip the $90 MILLION military parade for the wannabe King’s big boy birthday party and take to the streets in record-breaking numbers instead, shall we? There are more of us than them. Be seen. Be heard. Be LOUD. NO KINGS 🚫👑 Be a guardrail of Democracy. JUNE 14. Everywhere. #MomSky #Pinks

Why is a drug abuser who bought political influence, and who has financial deals and in regular contact with our country’s enemies, still allowed to have national security clearance, government contracts and access to our data? Every Republican needs to answer this question.

Work requirements hurt poor people AND are a waste of money. Arkansas spent $26 million on administrative costs for work requirements — and saw no increase in employment. Georgia’s program cost $40 million in one year — 80% of that went to administrative and consulting costs.

“I could” Seems pretty relevant.

"Formerly we were in the habit of saying: ‘This is right or wrong.’ Today we must ask the question: ‘What would the Führer say?’ We are under the great obligation of recognizing as a holy work of our Folk Spirit the laws signed by Adolf Hitler." -- Hans Frank, the role of lawyers and judges (1933).

@maddow.msnbc.com Huge (c. 2,000) turnout at the March 29 TeslaTakedown inWalnut Creek, CA.

Today’s Tesla Takedown crowd in Walnut Creek, CA estimated at 2,000 — double last week’s.

My dear friends of Bluesky! This one has hit way too fing close to home for me. This young woman, Rumeysa Ozturk from Istanbul, Turkey wax detained by US Homeland Security today. One of her professors at Tufts University in Medford, MA just spent a week in my home in Charleston, SC.

So that scene in the Oval Office, was that personal liberty or free markets? I guess I'll have to wait for the Washington Post editorial

Decent people thank Ukraine.

Repost & like, if you stand with President Zelensky!

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

I am hosting my first telephone town hall as the Congresswoman for California’s 12th congressional district this Tuesday, February 25th at 5:30 PM PT. Come join us and chat by RSVPing at Simon.house.gov/rsvp

“A WaPo analysis of the data found that many of the canceled contracts were already complete, meaning canceling them didn’t yield any money back because they had been fully paid out — and indeed, 417 of the deals on DOGE’s list indicate that they saved $0.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

President Elmo, the richest man in the world, instead of being a philanthropist, has decided starving babies and stealing life saving meds from them is much better. We are on day 14.

BREAKING: I’m hearing from several VA employees that they have been locked out of VATAS - thats how employees request leave - like administrative leave to file EEO complaints. It also shows your work schedule and OT. If this has happened to you, please reach out using the contact info in my bio.

“When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labelled ‘made in Germany’; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, ‘Americanism’.” - New York Times, 1938

I have covered both Musk and Alex a lot, and only one of them is a useful idiot for Putin and also a heinous person. The other is a patriot who did his job with distinction and is a very good man. Guess which is which: thehill.com/policy/techn...

Don’t let GOP sell you on their hate, lies, & vicious attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community! The fabricated issue of who can use restrooms and play sports, is just a way to discriminate based on gender identity, similar to how drinking fountains & restrooms were used to segregate based on race!

I can't tell you how much transphobia rests entirely on trans-misogyny. These people can't every comprehend trans men, it literally breaks their brain like Ben Shapiro in that debate. Having burly, bearded trans men use the women's restroom in the Capitol would highlight the absurdity of the rule.

Some of the same people who want to ban library books and drag shows seem perfectly fine with sexual predators serving in the cabinet. Make that make sense.
