Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

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.

Attention: Musk’s staffers are now seeking access to a sensitive Medicare database as part of their crackdown on undocumented immigrants. DOGE was never about saving the U.S. money—it’s about building a government-run machine to weaponize personal data.

Happy #LibrarianDay!! Thank you to all the wonderful librarians out there!

Autism is not a disease and these kids are not damaged, despite what HHS Secretary Kennedy says.

Quick point. Congress can use the spending fight in September (remember Chuck Schumer surrendered till then) to prevent a single dollar from being used to house prisoners in El Salvador.

🚨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.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Librarians are some of the most detail-oriented, policy driven, and dare I say it neurotic people I know and I know lots of them. Books are chosen and recommended carefully. And yet politicians think they know better than librarians to the point to where they threaten them with imprisonment.

Historian here posting for no reason at all. U.S. Constitution, Article II Section 4: "The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."

"The Mississippi Library Commission ordered the deletion of two research collections that might violate state law, a memo obtained by Mississippi Today shows. "One of the now deleted collections focused on 'race relations' and the other on 'gender studies'...” mississippitoday.org/2025/04/08/m...

They will be targeting Americans too. No one is safe.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

Remember #military and #nationalguard that your #oath is to the #constitution and not the felon who doesn't give a shit about you or veterans that have served. Don't forget what happened with #signalgate #neverforget the 4 soldiers in Lithuania that died recently.

Lori Beth Denberg reprised her All That librarian character to do a pro-library, anti-book banning reel and I love it so much??? www.instagram.com/reel/DIK0_bD...

YES!! Along with Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Coney Barrett

The orange creep's tariffs in and of themselves could destroy both the U. S. and the world economy, but something much stronger is American consumerism. Fellow citizens, if you refuse to pay the tariffs tax and also slow down your consumption, especially on big ticket items and travel, he's toast.

And no one in America doubts why he's doing this.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...
