Republicans can only lose 3 Senate votes on Trump's Big Ugly Bill — and these senators are the most vulnerable in 2026: -Collins (ME) -Tillis (NC) -Sullivan (AK) -Husted (OH) -Moody (FL) -Cornyn (TX) -Ernst (IA) If they represent you, tell them to vote NO.  (202) 224-3121

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Just so I understand correctly, it’s a crime to give water to people who are waiting in very long lines for hours to vote, but it’s just fine for corrupt billionaire Nazi Musk to commit an actual felony by bribing people in Wisconsin with million dollar checks for their votes.

Good one!

Such truth to this meme! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Short sided AF! We can shut borders, cut ties, and look away—but viruses don’t care. The next pandemic is just a 12-hour flight away and we have an HHS secretary, who doesn’t believe in vaccines. This decision will hurt us at home…

Hey Wisco humans - I hear there is an election on Tuesday April 1. Don’t be an April fool. VOTE! Support the candidate that will defend the environment, clean water, women’s reproductive rights, and the constitution. @crawfordforwi.bsky.social SUSAN CRAWFORD for Supreme Court

Putting a reporter in a Signal chat where you’re planning airstrikes, that’s careless. Sharing information that puts our pilots' lives at risk — that’s reckless.

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

The U.S. has actively dismantled the global disease-detection programs we all—including Americans—rely on to stay safe Today this administration’s short-sighted global health agenda got even even worse It’s ending its support for vaccine programs around the world Why?? 🧵

This is what fascism looks like, folks

Seen people wondering why so many major institutions are prostrating themselves before Trump and maybe this is obvious but it's because the incentives for cowardice are immediate and obvious while the disincentives aren't. All they lose is their dignity and you can't pay the bills with that anyway

I prefer to say, "Morons for Moronika!" #Signalgate . . From #ThreeStooges, You Nazty Spy

The Vice President of the United States celebrating the death of innocent civilians. Shocking, disgusting, absolutely not surprising. He's also celebrating a war crime. No wonder: * They used a platform with disappearing messages * They fired all the JAGs

Trump is conducting an authoritarian witch hunt against foreign students here legally, simply because they’ve engaged in free speech that his regime doesn’t like. This is modern-day McCarthyism and an attack on the First Amendment. We must all stand up against it.

thehill.com/regulation/c... Law firms divided over response to Trump orders

Jeffrey Goldberg and Pete Hegseth. One takes DOD protocols seriously: Goldberg: —Did not disclose sensitive information; and —Left the chat when clear he was on chain (errantly) w/classified plans We’ve asked Pee Wee amateurs to play in big leagues. Expect (a lot) more unforced errors.

I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.

Shout out to Jeffrey Goldberg for reporting on this now instead of waiting two years to put it in a book.

oopsie!

DOGE has repeatedly failed to find evidence of widespread Social Security fraud. So why does the Trump regime keep bringing it up? It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires a giant tax cut.

Pete Hegseth is a danger to this country and our men and women in uniform.

Circling back on this…

This just about sums it up.

You cannot make this shit up. Sharing this jaw-dropping story with a gift link -- give it a read.

Thinking about making choices… 🙄💯🙋🏻

99.4% of new drugs approved by the FDA are the product of NIH funded research. Remember this every time you see another headline on the NIH funding cuts. It will directly impact YOU. #ScienceNOTSilence

We were told not to share this publicly, but last year was record-breaking—America’s national parks saw over 331 million visits.

riddle me this, batman...

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Oh. The. Irony.

We can help shift the tide! Wisconsin must have fair electoral maps going forward. Answer Musk’s money with a blizzard of small donations. Give Musk the finger and support Judge Susan Crawford for the open WI Supreme Court seat. Our democracy depends on it. secure.actblue.com/donate/hrccr...

FOX NEWS: You are against people bringing in eggs that have not been-- I mean, we have the USDA for a reason. These could be contaminated and bring illnesses in. GALLEGO: Absolutely. This is why we shouldn't be firing USDA inspectors that are actually doing oversight over avian flu
