NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night. Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.” She’s a constituent. Not a threat. This is Fascism.

“Never before in my life have I called for mass disruption. But I am now. These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace,” Democratic Illinois Governor JB Pritzker said. This did not sit well in Trumpworld.

We can talk about DOGE’s failure to cut two trillion dollars in “waste” all day, but the real story is how much Elon Musk is enriching himself by remaining in the government.

Great to see! "A major company, Microsoft, has dropped a law firm that settled with the administration in favor of one that is fighting it." www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/b...

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has now admitted they made an error in raiding the Oklahoma City home of a mom and her three daughters. 20 federal agents, including ICE, the FBI, and U.S. Marshals raided the home, held the family at gunpoint, and seized their belongings. DHS now…

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

As long as Donald Trump desecrates and defiles the White House with his despicable presence, there should be massive protests at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue — every damn day.

Geography lesson at today’s Pro-Due-Process rally.

They think all these people are paid.

NEW: An Indian drugmaker, investigated by ProPublica last year, has recalled two dozen medications sold to U.S. patients. The drug recalls cover a wide range of commonly prescribed medicines — including ones that treat epilepsy, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, heart disease and high blood pressure.

Trump is openly bragging about just how much money his billionaire buddies made off of his dangerous tariff gambit. “He made $2.5 million today, and he made $900 million! That’s not bad,” Trump said, pointing to financial investor Charles Schwab and Roger Penske, a Nascar team owner, respectively.

They are terrified

Spectacular view of 100,000 people attending the #HandsOff march in NYC

Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power: “It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

• This is what democracy looks like — in Boston, Massachusetts. • “Hands Off!” protests against the Trump regime are off to brilliant start — all across America.

At the #HandsOff protest at Bryant Park in NYC. There are too many people to count… and also bagpipes.

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

Trump voters. And folks who stayed home. Do you believe her now? Why did you believe the best of him and the worst of her? If you had a do-over—would you choose differently? Don’t answer. Not yet. Watch this first.

AEI: "President Trump’s Tariff Formula Makes No Economic Sense. It’s Also Based on an Error."

We're no longer capable as a nation of this level of decency, honor, and class

LISTEN to Barack Obama: The most important office in this democracy is the citizen. Freedom tomorrow is not a given—it has to be fought for.

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

America, you f**ked up! She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored her—because it was never really about the economy. Now folks are scared, struggling—and we’re cooked.

Idiocy. Pure idiocy.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: When we see people being pulled off the streets, when we see students at universities being grabbed, detained, and kidnapped, and when we see Kristi Noem filming this disgusting video, we’re looking at a nation we no longer recognize. We don’t want to be like that nation.

Himes: "As far as I can tell, we're now on team Kremlin ... the president's chief Russia negotiator, Steve Witkoff, is repeating Russian talking points and participating in a mad cap Signal chat about an attack on Yemen while inside Russia."
