Dear god let this man cook.

Donald Trump has always seen telling the truth as a hostile act.

Trump spent the entire campaign saying that tariffs are the “most beautiful” thing ever. Why doesn’t he want Amazon to show them off?

That kind of skeptical, questioning, "don't accept what authority tells you" attitude of science - is also nearly identical to the attitude of mind necessary for a functioning democracy. They have very consonant values and approaches, and I don't think you can have one without the other.

I love that little determined face...

Getting hard to tell if this is a #GOP meme, but I don't care any more. #ChuckSchumer

Canada’s next government will be a liberal government! Go Canada! 🇨🇦

Tough, but fair.

Trump has deported a four-year-old US citizen with a rare form of metastatic cancer without medication or consultation with their doctor.

NEW: In a SCATHING decision, Judge Briones of the Western District of Texas absolutely SAVAGED the government over this case, tearing to shreds ICE’s hearsay “evidence” that this husband and wife were in Tren de Aragua as “completely and wholly unsubstantiated” — and ordered their immediate release!

Fox News is a cancer to our society.

Judge says 2-year-old US citizen appears to have been deported with ‘no meaningful process’ politi.co/42TgorF

Well, this is horrifying.

America isn't a Christian country. It's a country where Christianity has the freedom to exist. There's a difference.

Soooo Hegseth was using an unsecured internet line set up in his pentagon office. FUCK OFF with the BUT HER EMAILS!?

Trump’s agenda is deeply unpopular. Republican members of Congress, especially in swing states, need to wake up and start speaking out, or risk losing their seats next year.

Americans have only seen three months of what this is administration is doing in terms of immigration and they went from approving of it ten plus points to a strong disapproval. Why? It's completely lawless.

In a new poll conducted April 17-21 by UNH, Mainers say by 71% to 21% that Susan Collins does not deserve to be reelected to another term in the U.S. Senate.

If the Biden administration had started arresting judges, Republicans would have lost their fucking minds.

Senator Tammy Baldwin's @baldwin.senate.gov statement on the arrest of Judge Dugan (posted elsewhere):

When Kash Patel was confirmed as the Director of the FBI, we knew there would be abuses of power. I react to the arrest of Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan and explain how Patel has made the FBI into "America's Gestapo." Watch here: youtu.be/M81xHeh7s0k

EMERGENCY ACTION Join us we’re actively working to get coalition members on the ground! Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI this morning after refusing to allow ICE agents into her courtroom. She was taken to the federal courthouse.

This happens in North Korea, Russia, and now it's happening here. MAGA is not American.

Plenty of politicians on both sides of the aisle feel threatened by rising class consciousness.

Harvard scientist Kseniia Petrova has been in ICE custody for about two months. Her colleague and friend Leon Peshkin says her case is causing some scientists to reconsider working in the U.S.

Lieutenant General (Retd) Ben Hodges, former Commander of US Army Europe, Commander NATO Allied Land Command, Commander 1st Brigade 101st Airborne:

The worst form of addiction that this country now faces is the greed of the oligarchy.

We’re all a little confused, disheartened, and yet… focused. So I recorded a message for all of us: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/a-message-...

BREAKING: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had an internet connection that bypassed the Pentagon’s security protocols set up in his office to use the Signal messaging app on a personal computer, the Associated Press reports. Enough is enough. Hegseth must resign NOW!

Just in case you forgot: Trump and Republicans are STILL trying to cut $880 billion from Medicaid, all so they can pass a $4.5 trillion tax cut for the richest 1%.
