Mike Waltz has left the chat.

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money!

If members of the press are worried they didn’t give enough coverage to the cognitive decline of a sitting president, they have an amazing opportunity to make up for it right now.

Was the person who came up with “whoopsie daisy” the same person that said “toodle-loo” or were they just soul mates

SCREAMING

Maddow: 88% of the country says no, no, he cannot defy a supreme court ruling. Only 9% say yes he can. And you know, it's not the same thing. But I should mention that 9% is also the proportion of Americans who told yougov this week that they have a favorable view of the black plague

"When women are in charge, things work" - Pope Francis

so, arresting judges should be more than enough reason for complete obstruction at in the house and senate. complete obstruction. anything you can do. interrupt proceedings, deny consent, holds on nominations. everything.

To the best of my ability, i would protect undocumented friends, neighbors & strangers from ICE This is terrifying

"A federal judge is raising alarms that the Trump administration deported a two-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with “no meaningful process,” even as the child’s father was frantically petitioning the courts to keep her in the country." www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Democracy dies in dumb

@iamseanmaguire.bsky.social happy birthday, Sean! 🥳 have a great day!

President Trump just fired almost the entire staff of the CFPB, who protect you from getting scammed by Wall Street. This is another assault on consumers and our democracy by Trump's lawless Administration. We will fight back with everything we've got.

Christopher Meloni discusses Mariska Hargitay’s upcoming documentary, My Mom Jayne.

In today’s atmosphere, it’s obvious why a book warning of totalitarian censorship would be in the American Library Association’s list of most commonly challenged books

Columbia is proof that appeasement doesn’t work. Harvard is doing the right thing.

If you’re not scared you’re not paying attention.

Christopher Meloni answers what’s coming up when it comes to the will they/won’t they for Benson and Stabler.

Which chicken shit House Dem said this off the record? Which one of you is too cowardly to add your name to this horrid statement? Speak up so we can primary your ass back to the stone age.

I just met with the Vice President of El Salvador as we fight for the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I’m speaking to the press now with the latest on our efforts. Tune in here:

boston globe editorial board: harvard is making the right decision, and universities should band together to fight. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/16/o...

Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

A reminder that there is no human being in the United States whom it would be legal to disappear to a Salvadoran prison without due process of law.

The numbers are in after yesterday’s tax deadline. Minnesota’s new Child Tax Credit delivered an average $2,400 back to working class families, benefiting nearly 400,000 kids. Regardless of Washington chaos, we’re still making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up.

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

My favourite library quote is from newsman Walter Cronkite: ‘Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of an ignorant nation’

Elon Musk’s DOGE cronies want an AI bot to replace the federal workers who advise students and families on how to pay for college. Relying on AI for major financial decisions is annoying at best and reckless at worst. Either way, it’ll cost Americans.

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

In years to come, the people who did this will be the ones who will go to jail.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

What a day. What a country! 💪

Gov Tim Walz (D-MN) to CNN: "I don't know if I'm the best spokesperson to do it... after just losing an election... but what I know is the public ... they're rising up and asking their leadership to do something"

Great turnout #handsoff in Northampton MA

So much good trouble in Kansas City today!

🚨 BREAKING: I love this. Gov. Andy Beshear is launching a podcast Tuesday. “In tough times, folks need an escape where they can process and even smile.” @andybeshearpod will bring heart, humor, and real talk—and if it makes you smile, he asks you to donate to a charity. Compassion in action.

Free Trade, zero tariffs Elon vs Full Tariff Trump is going to be interesting to watch. The stakes are enormous for the American People Who comes out on top ? I think unfortunately for the economy, in this case , it's Trump.

Adjectives I like…

It’s time for Congress to reign in the Mad King. These tariffs haven’t even hit for real and the world is off the rails. Politically, it’s helpful to Dems, but this is why I’m not a good politician b/c I care too deeply about the harm on all people, even on those that hate my very existence.
