Fmr. V.P. Al Gore: "Something is different about this administration... We are really in danger right now, and we have got to rally the grassroots to take back the destiny of America.

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

If you still order from Amazon, you probably noticed the bump in prices. Folks are starting to see the proof in their own lives. Trump’s tariffs aren’t “making China pay”—they’re making us pay.

Trump’s playbook is simple: punish anyone who stands in his way. This ain’t law and order—it’s a rise of authoritarianism in real time.

As vaccination rates fall, the numbers of measles cases — in addition to other infectious diseases — are continuing to rise. The United States has reached a dangerous precipice, now teetering on the brink of endemic measles. This shocking development comes a quarter century after measles was…

My goodness. Please tell me Donald Trump isn’t going to try to work trade deals at Pope Francis’s funeral. 🤦🏽‍♂️

This entire interview is something else. Check out, confused, lying, doesn’t seem to have any grip on the facts at issue in anything. time.com/7280114/dona...

If the election had been held today, Vice President Harris would soundly defeat Trump. Of course, if more folks had recognized the threat Trump clearly represented back in November and voted for a better future, there would be no need for this hypothetical. Elections matter. They always do.

recent polling is just a total repudiation of the idea that full spectrum opposition to trump across every area was/is a bad idea

I am saddened to hear about the passing of Secretary Alexis Herman—my Soror, a trailblazer, and the first Black woman to lead the Dept. of Labor. Her impact on this country and the fight for working people runs deep. Rest in power, Madam Secretary.

These charges are so stupid. There was an ICE agent **in the elevator** with the defendant after he left the courtroom. But oh yeah, the state judge somehow obstructed ICE because she let the defendant leave the courtroom through a side entrance. The Trump DOJ is run by morons and thugs.

I’m honored to be named Advocate of the Year for the 29th Annual Webbys! Every day, I fight to make sure our communities are seen, heard, and protected—so to be recognized for that work at the Webbys means the world. Follow along on Monday, May 12 at #Webbys.

A federal judge in D.C. orders the Voice of America to return the fired workers back to work and to restore programming. Bravo, Norm Eisen! Trump keeps losing in court today. 🍿

This is the honor and respect that Lithuania’s highest ranking officials and citizens presented American fallen soldiers while their Commander-in-Chief played golf instead.

Dear friends & allies, Please know that the majority of Americans did not vote for this. We oppose this miserable narcissist. We're horrified by his party for their complicity. We haven't changed. We are your friends. We will defeat this. Please forgive us. #Opposition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

This is what kicking fascism’s ass looks like. #HandsOff

Your child is more likely to die from measles than get beat by one of their trans peers in an athletic competition, and I wish our government's actions would reflect that.
