Schweikert was a no-show when it came time to vote on Trump’s so-called "Big Beautiful Bill." Despite the bill's harm to his constituents, he continues to align himself with MAGA priorities and Donald Trump. Demand he does his job and puts the people of CD1 first! #noshowschweikert @indivisible.org

People saying Elon's doggies are reducing waste and saving taxpayers wads of cash, you've been misled by actual lies and exaggerations. The Times has receipts, yet DOGE keeps feeding the low information silo to inject MAGA sauce into fans who may push favorability up. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u...

NOT A VIOLENT CRIMINAL Heidy Sánchez was deported from Florida to Cuba—without her 17-month-old American daughter. She followed a routine ICE check-in. Trump’s agents detained her, gave her no option to take her baby, and ripped their family apart. She’s heartbroken.

Let's ensure this ridiculous, expensive, North Korea/Russia style parade gets a proper response from Americans. Let's express our displeasure with this abuse of power for a thin skinned president to preen for a day. George Washington would have thrown up. open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Ben Franklin on inoculation, after his son died from smallpox. “In 1736, I lost one of my sons, a fine boy of four years old, by the small-pox, taken in the common way. I long regretted bitterly, and still regret that I had not given it to him by inoculation”.

So what's next after today's May Day mobilizations? On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. But real power isn't staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. That's why we're planning a nationwide day of action to say No Kings. 🧵

Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise." Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically why vaccine trials don't use placebo arms. Ethical violation as POLICY.

The Republican grift is out in the open. They'll continue to take the wraps off ever more outrageous conflicts of interest until somebody steps up to stop them. There's NO doubt this administration and enabling legislators are the crookedest in American history. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/u...

May Day is about power — celebrating workers' power and honoring those who fought for it. While Trump, Musk, and the GOP gut workers’ rights and sell our country out for profit, we’re teaming up with a coalition of organizations for a nationwide day of mobilization.

I'm not as old and booze marinated as Carville and I'm older and less roid raged than Cuomo, but I've been around awhile and both of these guys can fade into the background without a ripple as far as I'm concerned. Has-beens, both. Hogg is being disruptive in a party that OBVIOUSLY needs disruption.

This is one of the larger goals of the Project 2025 movement, and the pliable king has the pen to reject safety and environmental rules that have saved lives and reduced our impact on the planet. Too many other outrageous moves have been consuming our bandwidth. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/u...
