Newsom, California Democrats double down on cap-and-trade program https://twp.ai/4imb6V

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are gutting Social Security as we speak. The danger to benefits for millions has never been so great. Keep sounding the alarms. Keep fighting back. We cannot let it happen.

“As is evident, simply by looking at him, Dear Leader is in exquisite health, having the trim body of an athletic 23-year-old, the mind of an inquisitive genius, an the couth of the most refined men. Truly, the most perfect human walking among we lesser mortals. Praise God!” --The Court Physician

The dream is dead

Garcia: The man can't even go and play video games anymore because the people he's playing with are harassing him. And I think that he understands that he's the most unlikable person in this country

Supreme court orders US to help return man wrongly deported to El Salvador

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

A disgraced former Milwaukee cop with credibility issues helped seal the fate of a gay Venezuelan makeup artist sent to El Salvador's notorious prison. Cross was fired from his position as a Milwaukee Police Sergeant in 2012 after driving his car into a family’s home while intoxicated.

What did Marjorie Taylor Greene know about the tariff announcements and what stock trades did she make? We need answers.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

Amazing that without even mentioning a name, EVERYONE knows exactly who it's referencing.

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.

“Special kind of stupid.”

Dark Pence is back.

Elon Musk bought and paid for Brad Schimel. That tells you all you need to know, Wisconsin. Vote Susan Crawford today.

The White House Correspondents’ Association said it fired host Amber Ruffin so it can instead focus the dinner on celebrating the First Amendment. Which apparently can be done best by preventing a gay black woman from speaking.

Secretary Hegseth must resign. He lied. Now, we have new reporting about Hegseth’s wife. If the White House doesn't provide more facts, then this raises all sorts of red flags.

The guy who campaigned on lowering prices on day one now says he hopes prices go up Congrats, America www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

The Brits are savage 🔥

UE leaders from around the country held an emergency rally and press conference today in Minneapolis. The rally was held in response to the recent abduction of a graduate student at the University of Minnesota. (1/4)

On this day in 1964, segregated white churches in Jackson, Mississippi, barred two interracial groups from entering Easter Sunday services. Nine men were arrested and convicted of disturbing public worship.

🚨 Trump threatens to use military action to annex Greenland, says he hopes automakers raise prices, pretends he's never heard of Signal and more in a deranged interview with NBC News. Watch:

LGBTQ+ women have always made history. We are powerful, we are resilient, and we are NOT going anywhere. This #WomensHistoryMonth, hear the stories of just a few of the powerful LGBTQ+ women who came before us: www.hrc.org/news/8-lgbtq...

Trump has not endorsed Putin’s aims, and his talk about wanting compromise suggests he may not believe in the “unity” of Ukraine and Russia. How far will Trump go? It depends how badly he wants “peace.” ICYMI Tamar Jacoby: www.thebulwark.com/p/impossibil...

A couple of years ago, I noticed that Dems were losing ground with Latino voters. I launched a Spanish-language YouTube channel to reach those people. That channel is now on its way to 300,000 subscribers and has nearly 50 million views. We have be aggressive and go into spaces we're not already in.

Thank you for sharing news of our initiative... we are an interdisciplinary team of researchers from U of Maryland, UPenn, and Georgia Tech + more whose aim is to communicate the impacts of federal cuts on science and health research nationwide. Full explainer thread here: bsky.app/profile/josh...

Detain him with plainclothes masked men, send him to a Louisiana jail and don’t tell his lawyers where he is or you’re not serious about stopping shit.

As a participant in US society, it is your fundamental responsibility to be critical of government at all levels. Don't be afraid to question policy coming from the party you belong to. Don't refuse to see merit in ideas from the other side. Unless it is MAGA. Those fuckers are pure evil.

People were mean to him on Twitter, so he bought Twitter. People were still mean to him, so he bought the US government. And he is going to use it to hunt down those bad people!

Our response is to fight, to protect, and to build.
