I got no popcorn left at this point.

Sorry to step away from the catfight, but we’ve got a win! A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to dismantle AmeriCorps halting the termination of grants and its volunteer network!

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.

Scenes of courage as communities demand accountability from federal agents.

These two psychos have access to all your personal data, by the way.

Behind closed doors, JD Vance and Peter Thiel are chomping at the bit...

"The other party is run by toddlers. Our party wants your toddlers to have free health care. We are not the same." Mr. Jeffries, cut this ad immediately.

This might be the absolute greatest reply we have ever received. Thank you, Cookie Monster 📕🍪💙

Ah, the golden age.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

The dictator of one of the United States' enemies is using the President of the United States to announce military attacks on a United States ally.

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.

Gay solar! Happy Pride y'all.

Guess who is going to pay for the tariffs?

A top coronavirus vaccine adviser at the CDC has resigned, citing concerns that she could no longer help vulnerable people after officials rescinded recommendations to immunize children and pregnant women.

This is such good news! Now let's see how the government responds. Or fails to.

Leader Schumer is now calling Trump's budget bill the "Well, We're All Going to Die Act."

This is heartbreaking. Rest in peace, Jonathan 💔

The woman who shouted "people will die" at Joni Ernst, India May, is a nurse and a librarian who first got involved in politics by going to a town hall about bills aiming to defund libraries. Now she's running for state house. eu.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...

“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.

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

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

VAN HOLLEN: I'm simply asking you to provide the committee with a reorganization plan, and your response is 'maybe yes, maybe no.' Am I getting that right? LUTNICK: We're going to follow the law VAN HOLLEN: The law requires to you to submit these major changes to the Senate

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Happy Fragile Straight Man Month!

KENNEDY: If Vietnam came to you and said, 'You win. We're gonna remove all tariffs and all trade barriers. Would the US please do the same?" Would you accept that deal? LUTNICK: Absolutely not. That would be the silliest thing we could do KENNEDY: What's the purpose of reciprocity then?

Sen. Adam Schiff sent a letter to the White House demanding that the Trump administration release financial disclosure reports from senior executive officials, as required by law. Transparency matters. www.schiff.senate.gov/news/press-r...

U.S. senators from both parties pressed Education Secretary Linda McMahon on Tuesday over the Trump administration’s proposal to eliminate funding for key programs administered by the Education Department for disadvantaged and low-income students.

Linda McMahon, our "Education" Secretary, doesn't know what the Tulsa Race Massacre is. She doesn't recognize the name Ruby Bridges. I have a visual aid that might help her remember...

Linda McMahon, (of A1 Steak Sauce fame), Trump’s Secretary of Education, couldn’t answer a basic U.S. history question in a congressional hearing. This is the Republican mindset: corruption > education.

And finally, the coup de grace, a masterclass in pathetic behavior from Linda McMahon.

On Feb 10, Linda McMahon canceled a program that served over 1,600 disabled students. She can't seem to answer whether she stands by her decision. Those students deserve a chance to thrive.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon refuses to say if teaching kids that Trump lost in 2020 is ‘illegal DEI’

Someone just sent me a group email making the case for Jamie Dimon for president. No. No more rich oligarchs

PRO PUBLICA: Of the 238 men sent to an El Salvador mega prison, only 6 had prior violent crime convictions. 0 were on the gang member list. 130 had no criminal history. 32 had minor offenses. All 238 thought they were being sent back to Venezuela. www.instagram.com/p/DKcjM7FPhz...
