Beautiful! One must take time to feel nature…

Pete Buttigieg packed a town hall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa! Love to see him working with VoteVets!

AOC: The math is not adding up. Their claim is that one million undocumented people are on Medicaid. So why are they trying to cut 13.7 million Americans off their healthcare?

It sure is something to see team Trump blame Joe Biden for a whole bunch of problems that never occurred while he was president.

DONALD TRUMP IS THE MOST CORRUPT PRESIDENT in U.S. HISTORY. PERIOD. Never in the history of America have we experienced duplicity, bribery, crime, and abject greed of this magnitude. New from @deanobeidallah.bsky.social deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-t...

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

Newark airport radar goes dark—for the SECOND TIME. 90 seconds with no pilot contact. Controllers alarmed: ā€˜Our scopes just went black again.’ Lawmakers demand immediate action. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/... #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky

Unprepared, unserious, and completely unqualified. By every conceivable measure, team Trump has decimated American leadership on the world stage.

Roger Stone called for me to be charged with treason and executed because I introduced a bill to take on Trump’s corruption. Last I checked, that’s my job. Words matter and political violence is personal to my family. This Admin wants to intimidate us, but we can't let them.

ā€œThe notion that I or any of my colleagues ā€˜body slammed’ armed federal officers is absurd. DHS is lying because they know their agents were out of line.ā€ www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Man would win gold in a lying olympics!

BBC: "Make it make sense." Me: "I can't." [awkward pause] [pause lengthens] Me: "That's the answer."

Pope Leo XIV is descended from Creole people of color from New Orleans. Take a look at historical records that trace the story of his mother’s family.

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

This is the way

There’s so much cosplay in this government it’s freaking unbelievable. They CLAIM Elon has stepped away, but don’t forget about DOGE—costing us more in lost efficiency than they save with their draconian cuts. More fake DOGE savings exposed…

A group of Quakers are marching more than 300 miles to demonstrate against the Trump administration's crackdown on immigrants. Organizers of the march say their protest seeks to show solidarity with migrants and other groups that are being targeted by the administration.

The Trump Administration is obstructing our work to continue building the 21st-century infrastructure Wisconsinites deserve, forcing us to put projects across our state on hold. So, we’re taking them to court. dailyreporter.com/2025/05/09/e...

If you agree this Trump birthday military parade is a really bad idea, you can do something about it right here. We’ve sent over 10k letters to congress so far! Let’s get it to 11k ASAP: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Just want to point that if I, a teacher, told my class that the new pope was appointed because the old one had been eaten by owls, and then explained the error by saying, "Oh, yeah, I was just hallucinating, I do that sometimes," I would not be allowed to teach children anymore.

AOC nails it! šŸ”„šŸ”„ "ā€ŠWe'll rally every corner of the United States of America until we save Medicaid and Medicare for every American until we defend social security. And we tell them who's really in charge in this country." #MomsForMedicaid

Please @scottuhltx.bsky.social and @scottuhltx.bsky.social boost this to your readers! The Senate version is still in play. City councils likely don’t know about the $10k fine, much less the requirement to card children!

We hope that public library users show up because the Senate has a similar bill in committee. Public libraries are to serve all and these restrictions in HB3225 bar teens from important academic texts. @everylibrary.bsky.social @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social @penamerica.bsky.social

My last event of the weekend. I spoke to over 100 rural Democrats at the Johnson County Democrats’ picnic. Rural Democrats are here. We’ve always been here.

I salute the 600 Naval Academy grads who released a letter condemning Trump's book bans at the Academy. Ā  At this week's Board meeting, I moved to reverse the ban & made clear I won’t give up the fight. Are we really afraid to have midshipmen read Maya Angelou’s ā€œI Know Why the Caged Bird Singsā€?

I wrote this song, and this is its first-ever public release. GOLDEN GATE PARK, out in mid-June, is the culmination of a decades-long obsession with sixties music as a collector, radio DJ, former drummer, art critic, and music historian. I’m really excited for everyone to hear the full album soon!

Go ahead. Elevate them to national fame and make them heroes like you did the Mayor of Newark. www.axios.com/2025/05/10/t...

Even if you don't live in an area with a lot of immigrants, you should still speak out! Please contact your elected representatives and speak out.

Leo XIV is 69 years old. Good health, plays tennis twice a week. His friends call him Bob I remember my history professor saying there will never be an American pope. Said he would be to powerful. If you want reform you need to get the backing of the American church

Congratulations, University of Wisconsin faculty!!!! Well-done. #standtogether #highered @maddow.msnbc.com We'll be adding you to the UMass Amherst #MADC tracker. This is a national movement. And this is just the beginning.

Rep. Maxine Waters brings the House Financial Services Committee meeting to a dead stop, calling out Donald Trump and his corrupt ownership of crypto as well as his oversight of the agencies. šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„ Republicans left stunned as every Democratic lawmaker walked out. šŸ”„ THIS is how we do it!šŸ”„šŸ˜Ž

Need some good news? New York just became the 9th state to pass universal school meals! All 2.7 million students will receive free school meals which will help families reduce costs and help students focus in school.

Newark Mayor Baraka was arrested by ICE today. Mayor Baraka was standing up for his community and demanding answers about a billion-dollar detention facility deal. He should be commended for his courage and leadership.

Did you know that the ICE detention center in Newark was opened without permission from the city & in violation of state law? Mayor Baraka has been fighting to close it down. Repost this to THANK Mayor Baraka!

What ICE has done in Newark is unacceptable. The Newark Mayor was doing his job. Arresting him is an alarming escalation that cannot be allowed to stand. We stand firmly with Mayor Baraka and his right to do his job . The Trump administration’s actions are an abuse of all we believe in America

Corruption is strong in Alabama GOP politics. But sometimes there’s justice. Great article by Kyle Whitmire, @warondumb.bsky.social for al.com, on how the AL GOP corrupts fair elections by kicking candidates off the ballot. Let’s keep shining a light on the roaches! 🪳 www.al.com/news/2025/05...

Alert🚨: Trump has placed tariffs at 145% on all goods from China meaning prices for these goods will more than double for American families. In 2024 China manufactured 76% of all children's toys, 80% of dog toys & 79% of laptops/ tablets in the US, so now our port traffic has declined by nearly 50%

I mean the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs is itself extremely dubious, but the President *clearly* has zero authority to unilaterally strike trade deals without a vote from Congress.

Standing with each other is more important than ever!
