Pretty much sick of "low-information" voters and fascism-lite.

When an attempt was made on Donald Trump’s life, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris immediately issued statements condemning the shooting and all political violence. The fact that Donald Trump hasn’t said a word about the arson attack on Gov. Shapiro and his family tells you all you need to know.

Just another example of the genius level of the 47 administration. And yes, Rubio is the brainiac of the bunch. #DemVoice1

And more details…

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Under new voting bill, if a married woman has a different name from the one on her birth certificate she cant vote. Dear Sisters, don’t take your husband’s name

Alarming Far-Right Plot Behind Facial Recognition Technology Employed by ICE & FBI. Recent documents expose that Clearview AI's founders had a clear agenda to target immigrants & left-wing individuals. This digital net is now controlled by the Trump admin. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.

Seems like this should’ve been a bigger deal. 🤷🏼‍♂️ www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

There are 32m small businesses in the USA

When the penalty for aborting after a rape is more severe than the penalty for rape, then there's obviously a war on women. Unacceptable in every way. We have to get the GOP the fuck out of the White House and Congress.

Bingo

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

These are the tariffs of the Republican Party-not just Trump. Congress voted to give Trump the authority to do this, & can vote to repeal them at any time. But they won’t, even though many know this will be a disaster, because they are afraid of Trump. So now they own this mess.

US Call to Action against the Trump regime and its fascist coup d'état, if you have breath in your lungs take to the streets on Saturday, April 5. Events and numbers are rapidly growing. Join now. #3E #FiftyFiftyOne 1. rally.co/hands-off-ma... 2. theblop.org 3. events.pol-rev.com/search?conte...

You don't have to speculate as to why Trump is tanking the economy (yes it's on purpose), Musk and Trump explicitly said they were going to do it.

Would be nice if congress could remember it is illegal for the president to unilaterally impose tariffs

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

Massive TDOV rally expected today from 4:00-6:00 at the National Mall between 3rd and 4th streets. Go there, I know many who will be there. Be with community and show your support for transgender people. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...

Wisconsin! Get out and vote today for Susan Crawford for the state Supreme Court! Brad Schimel is unfit.

Florida & Wisconsin, I hope you understand the assignment today! The entire Country, no World, is watching you. Please show up in record numbers and support candidates who will support the constitution & not the con!

Senator Booker: What kind of man is in the white house that makes fun of the disabled, who lies so much that the fact checkers lose count, that minimizes the pain and the suffering

Looking for corporate media coverage of the @booker.senate.gov filibuster and finding NONE. Currently live on CSPAN2 and YouTube.

🧵Masked ICE thugs attempted to abduct the school nurse at Cooke Elementary School, located in the densely populated Adams Morgan section of DC. Workers at the school intervened, demanding a warrant and holding up their phones and ICE scurried off without making their arrest.

Being AGAINST diversity is being FOR racism.

BREAKING: PLANE CRASH A Socata TBM7 aircraft (N721MB) has crashed into a home in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. The plane was en route from Des Moines, Iowa to Blaine, Minnesota. There were no survivors on the plane, according to the Brooklyn Park fire chief, but all residents of the home were…

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp. As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

Add it to the list—now Trump wants to eliminate FEMA? Texas has faced hurricanes, wildfires, and deadly winter storms. Since addressing climate change isn’t a priority for them, it’s only going to get worse. We’re one of the most impacted states. This isn’t just reckless—it’s dangerous.

BREAKING: We're suing the Greenville Public Library in South Carolina for systematically censoring books about the LGBTQ community. Alongside @aclusc.bsky.social, we're fighting to protect our freedom to read.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

I bet ICE's Signal chats would make for interesting--and indictable--reading.

Jessica Aber’s death feels like a story meant to fade into the background —tragic headline that people are supposed to forget. But when career prosecutor who spent her life chasing Russian cybercriminals, CIA leaks, and war criminals turns up dead weeks after resigning, forgetting isn’t an option

Detainees died due to starvation or dehydration. ICE murdered them.
