Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!

The Ministry of Propaganda is out early today doing damage control.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Speak Out

BREAKING: Days after a Louisiana judge ruled that the deportation of Mahmoud Khalil can proceed, thousands are holding an emergency Passover Seder at the ICE headquarters in New York City, saying: If you come for one, you face us all.

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare. 👆🏻 This is the crime wave we should be talking more about.

We are very far over the cliff here, folks

This asshole raised prices and ruined your retirement savings, and now he's out golfing for the rest of the weekend.

"I disagree". "Hysteria". What a disingenuous piece of shit. I'm so happy she and so many other Repubs are shitting directly in their voters mouths. You don't get to act like this and keep your job.

Harriet Hageman got booed to oblivion last night in her own town hall for pumping up Doge so hard that even her loyal suckers woke up and smelled the bullshit—about five months too late!

Being an asshole has consequences.

Did y’all just see Elon on TV say he wants to cut Social Security??? The richest man in the world is out here telling you he wants to stop you from getting your own money back—while he rakes in $8 million a day of YOUR tax dollars to blow up rockets in the sky. THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT YOU!

Bernie Sanders: "I think this is a prelude not only to cutting benefits, but to privatizing Social Security ... why do you lie so much about Social Security? Why do you make it look like it's a broken system? The reason is to get people to lose faith in the system so you can give it over to Wall St"

This likely confirms that the decision to arrest him was made at the highest levels of government, a terrifying return to the policies of ideological exclusion last seen used during the heights of the Cold War. A very, very worrying precedent at the start of this government.

They’ve lost Ann Coulter on this

On day one he was gonna fix it all and only he could do it. Instead he’s killing jobs, crashing the economy & the stock market is plummeting. BUT - it’s never his fault. 🙄 He’s immune to accountability.

Rep. Nadler speaks.

Women's rights are human rights. They aren't negotiable on International Women's Day or any day. Here in Illinois, we celebrate the contributions of the incredible women in Illinois' history and honor them by continuing to push our state forward.

Trump says he wants peace, but his actions prove he only wants to increase the amount of carnage. His words mean nothing - watch what he does, not what he says.

NEW: An Arizona judge dismisses a right-wing lawsuit aimed at changing election practices in Yavapai County, ruling the plaintiffs lacked standing because they couldn’t show they were harmed.

One of the Trump Administration’s conditions on disaster aid is to eliminate the California Coastal Commission. Look up Altadena, it’s where one of the fires happened. What does an inland community have to do with this? Nothing. Trump Admin should be ashamed.

Nope. Our criminal president is NOT going to be allowed to extort the state of California

Important: A *Republican* Congressman, Austin Scott, just wrote to Marco Rubio urging him to address the problems I reported on below that are putting lifesaving treatment for severely malnourished children abroad at risk. He joins Dem Rep Seth Magaziner. Horrific stuff:

An American Airlines flight arriving at Reagan Airport was forced to abort its landing to avoid another aircraft today, less than a month after a midair collision killed 67 people near the same airport and 90 minutes before another close call between a passenger plane and a private jet in Chicago.

Congrats @meidastouch.com !!! www.newsweek.com/meidas-touch...

Democrats: Empty libraries, gymnasiums, lecture halls, anywhere. Book the space and dare these pathetic House Republicans to show their faces. Share this if you agree.

Never underestimate the degree to which greedy corporations will exploit a crisis to f*ck us over.

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

It's a dead giveaway, if you ask me. 🤷‍♂️

it’s just so easy to forget how many people lost their visions of their own futures in the last month, and so few of us talk about the almost incalculable toll that puts on human life

“You’re terminated because…?” Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside. DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

I heart Tina Smith.

The 9th U.S. Circuit upheld a ruling that blocked key provisions of two Arizona laws demanding documentary proof of citizenship to vote in presidential elections when using the federal voter registration form and lowering the barrier for county election officials to cancel registrations.🥳

The settlement here will not be for a trivial amount

AOC: The order has come down to this committee. Find $880 billion to pay for a tax cuts on yachts, jets, billionaires, and mega corporations while working class people pay higher tax rates than Facebook does. Undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than many large corporations
