Bernie: "What that is all about is that if you're rich in America, you can make campaign contributions, you are entitled to massive tax breaks because you're superhuman beings. But if you're a poor working stiff, working at McDonald's, struggling to put food on the table, you're entitled to nothing"

This month, I beg you to look past the prejudice & the preaching you’ve had crammed down your throat your whole life. Look past your anger, & your pastor’s fear. Look at these beautiful humans. Trying with all their hearts to claim the dignity and love and safety that they, as humans, deserve. (MKB)

Beginning with a quote from Kafka’s “The Trial,” Judge Boasberg holds that government must facilitate due process protections for putative class they sent to CECOT 3/15 notw/stg his order. Details to be worked out, & gov can propose approach, but violations must be remedied. Big important decision.

Would a civilized country limit health care and food assistance for the poor...

I remember this just like it was yesterday, but it feels like a lifetime ago....

WATCH: “It's totally unconscionable,” says Sen. Bernie Sanders on the GOP bill that would kick 11 million Americans off health care. “And to do that in order to give massive tax breaks to people today on the top—who have never ever had it so good—is beyond cruel.”

"If you need to update Social Security about a move or bank account change, it could take longer than usual... "Changes like these may take longer, and thousands of Americans could see delays or even stopped checks in the meantime, employees warned USA TODAY..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Phang: And listen, he’s got a beefy lawsuit here. You can imagine what discovery is going to be like once this case moves forward—because it will. It will not be dismissed…

Don’t let him in Canada!!!

A recent study found that for every $1 invested in the National Weather Service, it produces $73 in value to Americans. Not only is the NWS a life-saving government resource, it's actually quite efficient.

But it IS a simple question.

Setting up "aid distribution points" and then massacring people who come to obtain food is sincerely one of the most evil things I have ever seen.

Chris Murphy: "We can't be preparing for the 2026 election. It might not come. All of our focus right now has to be on protecting the democracy, about stopping the corruption."

13-yr-old Camarria Williams made a remarkable discovery when she found a compound with potential cancer-fighting properties in goose poop from Garfield Park, Chicago. This surprising find happened while participating in the Chicago Antibiotic Discovery Lab, a STEM program in collaboration with the

Yikes

I know this feels good, but we are on year *15* of the backlash to the last big healthcare bill and this very poaster does not seem to like what that has done to our politics

Thou shall not stop spending on the rich...

Perfect.

My latest: Jasmine Crockett is clear choice to lead Oversight Dems I told you I wouldn’t pick sides in this race because I don’t have a vote. Then I realized it’s up to all of us to make sure our party gets this one right. 3,421 words. Please consider reading and passing this along!

Happy Fragile Straight Man Month!

If Republicans were forced to tell the entire truth 100% of the time, they'd never win an election. They'd never even win a freaking argument. Here's an example:

BREAKING: Judge Boasberg GRANTS class certification for the people held at CECOT and gives the government ONE WEEK to explain how they're going to facilitate due process for EVERYONE sent there under the Alien Enemies Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Dozens of companies who sponsored Pride marches last year have pulled out this year, including: Dyson Nivea Tiffany & Co. Capital One UPS Disney DoorDash Live Nation Nissan Citi Corporate Pride was always a hoax. https://popular.info/p/pride-and-prejudice-in-corporate

“If you hold people responsible for their actions they won’t like you as much as if you didn’t." Yeah, that’s a tough part of adulthood, isn't it?

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK. America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

Lee Jae-myung, the South Korean politician who climbed the fence of the parliament to get inside and vote against martial law, has been elected president. Pretty cooool

Parents sue over son's asthma death days after inhaler price soared without warning Cole Schmidtknecht, 22, had insurance but couldn’t afford to refill his asthma inhaler after the cost jumped from $70 to more than $500. An evil and obscene corporate murder www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Zelensky oversaw this attack's secret planning for a year and a half while ignoring Putin's puppet. That's what you call strategic planning and leadership. Or in this case, common sense.

I mean, if you had a serious, important job and you made a mistake like this, you'd probably get fired...

great, provocative column from larry tye on what it took to defeat the american nightmare of joe mccarthy and the ism that bears his name. along these lines, may i also point you to the 2nd season of my podcast, “ultra”: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r... www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

I've decided to turn any hate towards this into a positive. Every time I get flipped off or thumbs down for this flag I'm gonna make a 3$ donation to www.thetrevorproject.org at the end of the month. #Pride #QueerTrucker #TheTrevorProject #LGBTQ

Last night, Hillsborough County Public Schools held its first school board meeting since letters from state officials ordered books off shelves. Two parents made particularly poignant statements that must be heard. You can watch the whole meeting here: www.hillsboroughschools.org/Page/6365
