In Donald Trump’s Washington, the imperative has never been more plain: to get ahead or to stay out of trouble, praise the President as much as he praises himself.

Several states have pushed back against a Trump administration letter demanding they certify their schools aren’t engaging in what federal officials call illegal DEI programs—or risk funding

Do Customs and Border Protection officials have the authority to search your phone at the border? Short answer? Yes. Here’s what you can do to protect your digital life while at the US border.

Signalgate 2 is out already? www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

The Neurodiversity-Affirmative Child Autism Assessment Handbook is out TODAY! This handbook offers a practical, step-by-step guide to neurodiversity-affirming child Autistic identification & support. Grounded in research, lived experience & multidisciplinary practice. uk.jkp.com/products/the...

New in PN: RFK Jr. is wrong about autism "The Trump administration's attack on difference, the idea that people who are different are a tragedy and a burden and that they have nothing to contribute — that is fascism. And it is a danger to almost everyone."

A bizarre turn of events in the AEA cases, with Pres Bukele now saying he'll send all the prisoners back to the US if Venezuela releases a commensurate number of prisoners, including opposition members. Underscores how easy release is but also injects a new political angle to the whole mess.

And here we go…👇 Some good news for a change! Enjoy. 😎✨

Pam Bondi is deliberately lying & misleading the public to garner support for the administration keeping García in El Salvador. She needs to lose her license to practice. @americanbar.org #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #OneV1 #MomSky www.nationalreview.com/corner/attor...

My condolences to everyone in the Catholic faith and beyond who are feeling the loss of Pope Francis today. May his memory be a blessing.

Every time the Justice Department tries to claim the military isn’t actually banning transgender people, Pete Hegseth tweets that it is. This is likely to come up at oral arguments at the DC Circuit Court of appeals — conveniently scheduled for tomorrow.

The refusal by the Trump regime to provide Kilmar Abrego Garcia due process endangers every American's civil liberties www.americaamerica.news/p/due-proces...

A relevant question, no?

The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.

Every Republican must feel the heat for voting to cut Medicaid and SNAP to fund massive tax giveaways to billionaires. Every Democrat must know we’ve got their backs when they fight to protect everyday Americans. Find an event near you during this final week of April recess: indivisible.org/muskorus

“If today the Executive claims the right to deport without due process and in disregard of court orders, what assurance will there be tomorrow that it will not deport American citizens & then disclaim responsibility to bring them home?” —Judge Harvie Wilkinson www.americaamerica.news/p/due-proces...

Fellow Alaskans! Please add your name to this open letter asking Murkowski to protect Medicaid and Title X. You can also choose to have your name in an ad in the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. Healthcare access is already difficult in Alaska, especially for those in the Bush who rely on hub cities.

Let’s just grant the possibility these people were going to illegally work in the U.S. for a few weeks. I don’t think you could find any normal human to defend this treatment as proportional. Strip searched, handcuffed, given expired food and dirty mattresses. We’re such a garbage country.

Sie sorgen sich um Bürgerrechte, Arbeitsplätze und die Pressefreiheit: Von Alaska bis New York sind am Samstag Tausende auf die Straße gegangen, um gegen die Politik von Donald Trump zu demonstrieren.

Sorry, we promised not to post much today but we had to make a special callout. We forgot to give a proper shoutout to a few places yesterday. Denver and Dallas Fort Worth, you broke records. You were incredible.

We will be seeing more of our science coming from China now. Get used to it: “A team of researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China has uncovered new insights into this phenomenon. Published in the journal Advances in Atmospheric Sciences” #Arctic #Climate

“The Pentagon is in ‘total chaos’ and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role, according to its former top spokesperson, who painted a scene of dysfunction, backstabbing and continuous missteps at the highest levels of the department.”

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about strikes in Yemen to a second unclassified Signal group chat that included his wife and brother, people familiar with the matter said. nyti.ms/4jBQ1wV

During the Friday night hearing, DOJ's Ensign told Judge Boasberg "he understood there would be no flights Friday night and that he was 'not aware of any plans' for flights on Saturday ... AT THE SAME TIME, the ICE buses were nearing their approach to the airport exit."

Happy 420 Day!

Q: "Do you think that the country is currently in a constitutional crisis?" Sen. Van Hollen: "Yes we are. They are very much flouting the courts as we speak...They are doing nothing. They are absolutely in violation of the courts' orders."

In the darkest times, there is cause for hope. May we find strength in each other and our shared belief that a better world is possible. Wishing everyone celebrating a blessed Easter.

“Are you worried?” That is always the first question. “Of course I am worried,” I respond. “The president of the United States considers me an enemy and has promised retribution. I would be an idiot not to be worried. But I am not going to give in. I will continue to fight.”
