SCOOP: Details about Saturday’s “No Kings” protest are under watch by domestic intelligence centers, where analysts regularly distribute speculative threat assessments among federal, state, and local agencies, according to an internal alert obtained by WIRED. UNPAYWALLED:

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Newsom: "Speaker Johnson -- his eloquence was elevated when he called to 'tar and feather' the governor of California. Very religious man. I guess that's the spirit. The word of the Lord."

House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

How does @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social always get the most idiotic lying representatives on camera?

A follower requested I rework the Border Patrol criminal agent slides to juxtapose them w/their propaganda. This is a start: 🧵

Go Coco! Congratulations!

That's a nasty question...what an ass. He really didn't like being called chicken.

@scanlon.house.gov did a great job this morning. I have to try again to get some sleep.

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

Most of my friends think I'm wasting my time and, I probably am. But I had to try. Here is an open letter, and an honest plea, to Clarence Thomas, in hopes that he might do the right thing this decision season. He hates me as much as I hate him. But I had to try.

Very important read

Must follow the rules

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

BREAKING: The constitutional crisis has arrived. We knew it was coming, just not when.

I want politics to be about a better everyday life. Here's what that can look like:

So happy to see this. Baby steps Alabama...

Pete Buttigieg calls out the GOP’s plan to slash Medicaid and gut the VA: “They don’t have an answer. Their answer is: burn it all down.” Yes, there are problems. But cutting care for poor people and Veterans isn’t a fix—it’s a failure. “We can do better than that.”

The great @hcrichardson.bsky.social from her speech on the 250th anniversary of the lighting of the lanterns in Boston’s Old North Church. Read this excerpt to the end and you will be rewarded. Read it aloud and it gets better. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/april-18-2...

So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)

NEW: Fourth Circuit shoots down the Trump administration’s efforts to appeal Judge Xinis’s order requiring it to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. “We shall not micromanage the efforts of a fine district judge attempting to implement the Supreme Court’s recent decision.”

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

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.

Back in January, I reported on DOGE entering an agency system, exporting the data, OPM server info left open to the public, and someone signing in from a foreign country using a DOGE account. Almost identical to what the Whistleblower reported to NPR this week www.muellershewrote.com/p/a-fork-in-...
