Question: Are you better off today than you were four months ago?

(HERE is the bench slap I've been looking for) HITTING THE DOCKET: In Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals DENIES the Trump Administration's request for an emergency stay pending appeal & DENIES its request for a writ of mandamus. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

@fredguttenberg.bsky.social Watching your comment son MSNBC right now. Appreciate your continued, passionate advocacy to make life safer. Thinking of FSU families and remembering Parkland families today.

@vanhollen.senate.gov Boycott El Salvador coffee, sugar, textiles, and apparel. Ask all other nations to do the same.

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

The inability - or refusal - to agree on facts is killing us as a country. Partly culture, partly biases, but definitely a lack of fact based education. I’m not sure it can be reversed. Distressing.

@jonathancapehart.bsky.social - Becerra was a disaster at HHS, leading to hospital closures and being untruthful to congress. And there is media coverage of all of it. Please don’t rely upon Becerra. Let me know if you want the receipts.

@jonathancapehart.bsky.social Jonathan, as I watch your segment right now with Becerra, I’m absolutely sickened that he is touted as any person with credibility related to HHS. I can tell you from personal experience - with facts backed up with FOIA disclosures, he was a disaster.

Maybe he can try an old AOL account? www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately. - Senator Tammy Duckworth, March 26, 2025. Senator Duckworth is one tough soldier. www.duckworth.senate.gov/news/press-r...

@slotkin.senate.gov thank for a principled, well spoken response tonight.

My husband, as a disabled person, is a Medicaid recipient. The number on the left is how much his upcoming surgery (which he needs to BREATHE NORMALLY) would cost w/o Medicaid. The number on the right is what it’s costing us. The end of Medicaid would kill disabled folks.

🇺🇸 CNN poll shows just 8% of Americans view Russia positively—on par with those who think the moon landing was fake. 61% see Russia as an enemy, and only 4% as a partner. Only 9% like Putin, with the same percentage believing the Earth is flat. 52% support Ukraine using U.S. weapons in Russia.

You mean he lied to the police? nypost.com/2025/01/22/u...

Billionaire Bezos killed publication of this editorial. There are many ethical and caring journalists at the WP; I don’t want to stop benefiting from their work. But ownership’s censorship is dangerous to the country. Make sure this is widely shared. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

So Batman and Robin want to end Veteran’s health care, opioid addiction assistance, and AIDS treatment, among other things. I bet our military families will not think that is very cool. Not very cool to me. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

If you're a Veteran and you get your healthcare from the VA, please make appointments with your PCP and specialists before January 20th, and make sure to update all your vaccines and order your meds.
