Today, our client Rümeysa Öztürk was released on bail from ICE detention in Louisiana, and she will return to New England to continue her studies. 📸 Giancarlo D’Agostaro

staffers are still cleaning up the Kristi Noem mess after she got gutted/filleted by @chrismurphyct.bsky.social this is A MOMENT. #MustWatch 🧢 @trumpfile.org

It’s true. My fam uses Public Square to know where NOT to shop. www.huffpost.com/entry/public...

Daily reminder that the whole of Gaza is being starved to death and every Western nation is allowing it to happen. (📸 NBC News, see ALT text for more details)

Trump vs. China Trump: We’re talking. China: We’re not talking. Trump: I hold the cards. China: We make the cards. Trump: Kids will be happy with fewer dolls for Christmas. China: You couldn’t even name your kids. You’re all caught up.

This is incredibly powerful from the WHO’s Emergencies Director, Dr Mike Ryan, on the world doing nothing as the children of Gaza die. “This is an abomination.” (🎥 Middle East Eye)

70 yr old technology is not the way to go.

Dr. Anthony Fauci urges Americans not to accept "Normalization of Untruths".

Oh.

There’s no news on it but here is Rep. Eric Swalwell breaking the news: www.instagram.com/reel/DJFbXnq... No major news has broken on it yet.

A well-oiled machine 🫠

While you highlight it, please note is the product of local journalism, which has been carrying a lot of the burden in an environment where national outlets simply can't cover everything everywhere all at once. Support your local journalists!

Friendly reminder that when Leah Remini won an award at the TV Critics award show, Elizabeth Moss quite literally ran out of the room.

Sure is.

This conversation really triggered MAGA. Joy Reid is trending on Twitter for all the right reasons. Enjoy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XT3...

BREAKING: we won! A federal judge has enjoined the administration's shut down of Voice of America Another success for the Constitution and for us @sddaction.bsky.social & our many wonderful partners & clients More details to follow--stay tuned!

Pete Hegseth was unqualified from the start. Each day he continues to prove just how dangerous and unfit he is to serve as Secretary of Defense and keep our country safe. It’s past time he resign, and each day Republicans remain silent puts American families at risk.

Good posts Mark.

I just read this aloud to my 70-year-old husband. It is worth reading aloud or to yourself. Thank you @hcrichardson.bsky.social for such a wonderful reminder of our past and the principles early Americans. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/april-18-2...

this is Mohsen Mahdawi, the green card holder who was just arrested by ICE for rendition at his citizenship interview

April 9, 2025

Raskin: Perhaps he could have yelled fore on the greenway so tens of millions of Americans could have taken our retirement savings out of the stock market before he hit us in the head with a golf ball

Breaking: Sen. Richard Blumenthal says he plans to place a hold on ALL Trump nominees going forward. This will force Republicans to hold individual votes to override each hold, which will severely slow down their agenda. 🔗: www.axios.com/newsletters/...

Crockett: "If we are gonna talk about efficiency, let's talk about the fact that as of March 30, Trump's golfing has cost us approximately $26 million. And the last time I checked, we're not getting anything in return for that ... he decided he was going to golf instead of receiving four heroes."

Keep calling your republican senators! Please!

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

How many train wrecks do we have to survive before we pull our heads out of our collective asses and let women run this country? They called it from day one.

Two immediate impacts from tariffs: StubHub paused plans for an IPO. Nintendo delayed pre-orders for the Switch 2 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

George HW Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Clinton (D) got us out. George W Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Obama (D) got us out. Trump (R) got us mired in a recession. Biden (D) got us out. Trump (R) is yet again ushering us into a recession. Starting to notice a trend?

Just heard NICHD had it’s three offices that support science via buying (buying lab and hospital supplies) “eliminated in whole or in part.” This shld make us all angry: the Trumpers who did this DELIBERATELY didn’t say who was being cut, so it would dribble out, slowly, reducing media impact. 1/ 🧪

From a source at NIH: “Right now NIH’s ability to buy things is dead. Nearly all people with the power to make an order — purchasing people — have been removed. The NIH hospital can’t buy medicines, the labs can’t buy petri dishes. X-Ray machine breaks? Too bad. Everything is stopped”

🚨NEW: NYSE OPENS. DOW DROPS ANOTHER 1000 PTS Winning.

Bingo

22 weeks apart.

Thank you to whoever made this

This guy has collapsed the economy twice.

I posted the video over 2 years ago. People thought he was bluffing I guess.

Straight down seems bad
