RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

Happy Caterday from Dorothy Gale.

“Ignorant” is being gracious to describe Cosplay Kristi Noem. The level of abject stupidity in Trump’s cabinet picks is mindblowing. Of course Noem doesn’t know what HABEAS CORPUS means because she doesn’t recognize Constitutional rights.

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

Nothing could be more appropriate than the Christian nationals hating the Pope. They are faux Christians, faux patriots and filled with hate.

@kerrbear.bsky.social Beautifully stated Excellent 💙

Traverse City, Michigan Sunday, May 4, also May 11 Sunday Good Trouble

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

2100 calls a day! 766,500 calls a year! Think of how many lives this actually saves! Hotlines are the gateway to help! Just more fucking cruelty. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I cannot overstate how bad that is.

I’M GOING TO KEEP POSTING THIS STORY UNTIL ANDRY IS FREED: Gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to Salvadoran prison after a disgraced cop's report Andry Hernandez Romero sought shelter in the U.S. because he was persecuted as a gay man, one of the "particular social groups" allowed to claim asylum.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Locating law abiding legal immigrants through their (checks notes) IRS records. The very same immigrants the Trump regime states (checks notes again) don’t pay taxes. Their false narratives are all over the place. But MAGA knows, voting for this specifically. These are DOJ weaponized hate crimes.

I believe Kilmar Abrego Garcia is no longer alive, hence the reason the administration won't bring him back. They can't.

I’ve said this so many times but worth saying again. Great leaders create value, not destroy it. Trump is destroying the American economy, devaluing the dollar and crippling companies. This leads to lay-offs. The domino effect will be real and devastating. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/04/...

Its true 👇

The President just used the Oval Office to talk about his desire to send U.S. citizens to a prison hellscape in El Salvador. That’s not law and order—that’s unhinged. It’s not strength. It’s fucking sick. Republicans in Congress could stop this, but they won’t.

⚡️ Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa, who stood with Ukraine and called Putin a “bloodthirsty dictator,” has died at 89.

Graham isn’t called “Lady Lindsey” for nothing.

Attacking trans kids won't make groceries cheaper. Gutting funding for schools, libraries, and museums doesn't bring down utility bills. Defunding cancer research doesn't solve the housing crisis. Trump and Musk have no interest in doing anything that actually helps people who works for a living.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

"Hands Off" Bedford MA #democracy #handsoff #america

Our latest: America ain’t dead yet We’re down but we’re sure as shit not out

Pittsboro NC #HandsOff

#HandsOff2025 Asheville, NC

By the way whenever we come out of a deep recession like 2008, the rich get richer

Many, many thousands in downtown Denver at the capitol and the vibe is good. #HandsOff

SEATTLE WASHINGTON SHOWED UP!!! ✊

This is just the beginning

Main takeaway from the big #handsOFF protest in Manhattan today: overwhelmingly older white people. Like in 2003, they are going to portray it as pierced tattooed young rabble but it was not that at all.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.
