A BILLION dollars, in about ninety days, for doing no work

It’s horrifying that Gov. Shapiro and his family had to go through this. I pray he and his family will be free fear and will find peace tonight. Every Gov. no matter their party should have issued a statement of support for Shapiro and a condemnation of antisemitic violence.

Andrew Cuomo's policy paper on affordable housing, released this weekend, was written with the help of ChatGPT and was released rife with typos, in some parts devolving into unintelligible gibberish. hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo...

Do you know the difference between “$2 trillion” and “$150 billion”? About $2 trillion.

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

republicans are disappearing people under the guise of fighting antisemitism and can’t even pretend to give a fuck when a jewish governor’s house gets firebombed on passover

Members of Congress shouldn’t be trading stocks. Period. Full stop. The Speaker must take action to ensure all member trades during Trump’s tariff chaos over the last week are disclosed IMMEDIATELY. And put our legislation to ban stock-trading on the House Floor for a vote!

🚨 NEW: These are photos from Pennsylvania @GovernorShapiro’s home after police say an arsonist set it on fire while the Governor and his family were sleeping around 2 a.m. Cody Balmer of Harrisburg was arrested. Charges expected: attempted murder & terrorism. Trump and his administration? Silent.

Here are Facebook posts from Cody Balmer, the man who attempted to burn down Governor Josh Shapiro’s house with his family inside Threads

Last week, DOGE and a handful of Palantir representatives, along with dozens of career IRS engineers, were collaborating to build a "mega API," WIRED has learned.

New Mexico proves Heckman right “every dollar spent on high-quality, birth-to-5 programs for disadvantaged children delivers a 13% per annum return from better education & health outcomes for kids, employment gains for parents, greater economic productivity & reduced spending on healthcare & crime

The crowd and overflow crowd for the Bernie Sanders/AOC event tonight in Utah. Wow.

Strong moment from AOC’s speech in Utah

A Seattle lab lost janitorial services, hazardous waste support, IT and building maintenance while waiting for the Commerce Department secretary to personally approve all contracts over $100,000. By @lisalsong.bsky.social

AOC: That is the story that Republicans tell—not mine, but all of ours—when they say a waitress or a working person is unqualified to serve in Congress. But the truth is, many of us are far more qualified to understand what real life is actually like than any of them ever will be.

3 facts that should drive the news: 1) DOGE has committed, rather than found, fraud. 2) A bunch of antisemites are using a claim to police antisemitism to take over universities. 3) In spite of claims they're cracking down on China, Trump's FP & financial policies have vastly helped China.

Russian terrorist attack in Sumy, Ukraine today, Palm Sunday. Latest: 31 killed including 1 child, a further 84 injured. It is impossible not to conclude that Putin has been emboldened by Trump. This, just hours after Witkoff’s disgraceful pandering to Putin. (🎥 Euromaidan)

😔 The Russians in Sumy took the lives of the entire Martynenko family - the boy Maksym, who was in the 6th grade, died with his parents.

🙏🇺🇦 Zelensky: Sumy, 34 people have been killed. The first missile hit a building - one of the university buildings. The second exploded practically above the street. 117 people were injured. The strike on Palm Sunday. Only a completely broken bastard could do such a thing.

There's a huge difference between "act like a guest in this country" and "the first amendment no longer applies", "you have to carry your last I-94 at all times", and "we can revoke your visa for past traffic violations that were expunged".

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

Pretty clear now Trump and Miller are proud of this Salvadoran gulag they've built, and are not going to give it up. It's complete madness. bsky.app/profile/asha...

us government went from telling miners “learn to code” to telling coders “learn to mine” in less than ten years

DOGE already has cost tax payers money (at the very least $500B/year in IRS revenues, but that's before other huge costs are accounted for). And as I keep noting, Elon's $150B/year estimate is what some of the IGs who got fired were finding--w/o cutting services.

You can call them idiots but that undersells the deliberate lying. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/u...

One of prison’s worst-kept secrets is that almost anything sold outside the walls can be purchased inside, and a witness to countless inmate drug overdoses is calling for state and federal authorities to act.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

An arson attempt on the Governor's home on the first night of Passover. What the hell.

The president of Ukraine faces a critical moment in his alliance with the United States. This Sunday, he sits down with 60 Minutes. 60Minutes.com

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

How Fox this morning frames Russia’s latest missile attacks against civilians: “Both sides now accusing each other of violating the 30-day cease fire agreement.”

BREAKING: More than 20 people have been killed in a Russian missile strike on the Ukrainian city of Sumy, the acting mayor says.

Number one takeaway from the insane turnout at fight the oligarchy rallies, while chuck schumer cancels his little book tour and gretchen whitmer hides her face, is that there is zero constituency for bipartisanship

@warren.senate.gov: "This is the Trump administration. Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous for the billionaires. Billionaires win and everybody else loses. And they laugh about it."

Trump is also saying that the once the US has rounded up individuals, with minimal or zero due process, on whatever pretext they choose, they can send them out of the US to face torture, death, life imprisonment, slave labor or other fates that are unconstitutional or illegal in the US.

The Trump regime is claiming tyrannical powers. Not an exaggeration, not hyperbole, not a partisan statement. The reality we now face.
