It's hard to see what a president who was taking instructions directly from the Kremlin would do differently from every single act since inauguration

My maternal grandmother died in the 1918 flu pandemic. RFK Jr can go fuck himself.

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

the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed

Colorado…

This is more important than you realize. Bluesky doesn’t downgrade links. Which means news sites will get more traffic from here than other sites. Which gives them economic reasons to post here first.

Chris is a great guy and a terrific journalist. Please get in touch with him if you’re at Paul Weiss.

Amid growing concerns over Big Tech firms aligning with Trump administration policies, people are starting to move their digital lives to services based overseas. Here's what you need to know.

We 💙 links! Starting this week, we've made it even easier for newsrooms and more to track how much traffic Bluesky is sending to their sites. For those setting up analytics, Bluesky's referrer is go.bsky.app.

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person. I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

⚡️FIGHT THE OLIGARCHY RALLY ⚡️ STARTING TOMORROW. Nevada. Arizona. Colorado. You, me, and Bernie. Dem and GOP districts. ❤️💙 See you there 💪🏽🌞

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

BREAKING: The House of Commons has just passed Labour’s Employment Rights Bill. This will deliver the biggest upgrade in workers' rights in a generation 👏

One thing you really see every day is the different risk appetites between MAGA-era Republicans and Democrats. Basically compulsive, reckless, dangerous constant risk-seeking, versus almost comical levels of risk-aversion.

JUST NOW: Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi set the record straight on Social Security. Everyone needs to hear this.

If Linda McMahon and the Department of Education believe in "efficiency and accountability" (after laying off half of the department), then I'm sure they'll gladly publish a list of every position that has been eliminated and why that position is no longer needed.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Musk and Trump could not possibly be sending a clearer signal that the Tesla protests are working than this pathetic stunt today.

Elon realizes Tesla is over and he’s freaking out.

Privatization you say? And it's not just Social Security. It's the VA, Medicare, Medicaid, the Postal Service, schools, the police, prisons, NASA, scientific research... They want to privatize everything.

It's only Tuesday and Elon Musk's companies are under fire. From beefing with the Polish minister over Starlink in Ukraine to Tesla's slump, let's get into it. First, on the X outage: Musk blamed IP addresses in the "Ukraine area” as the source of the attack. Experts say that’s not how it works.

Putting this out there in case any federal employees are scrolling through. You aren’t powerless. You aren’t alone. There are some who want you to speak out & can help. #DemVoice1

BREAKING: Kia’s official Instagram account in Norway just posted this..

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.

Plan to limit political parties' donations from overseas

Elon Musk blew up another rocket using your tax money, it was recently reported that his failed experiments and falling satellites are causing severe damage to our ozone layer, risking the entire planet. #3E #EndAutogenocide #EndOligarchy
