We've delivered the boldest climate action in Illinois' history — reducing carbon emissions, removing air pollutants, all while making smart investments in sustainability and renewable energy. We won't wait around for this White House when it comes to real climate leadership.

To everyone shouting “no one is above the law” referring to that Milwaukee judge: We have a criminal in the White House. A guy who’s proven to be utterly lawless. And you’re perfectly fine with that. So take your “no one is above the law” bullshit and shove it up your ass.

Cable news is letting the president lie and dissemble and obfuscate on live television. Unbelievable

Many of Trump's decisions make a lot more sense when you remember that Putin owns him.

My friends, what the Trump regime has unleashed on America is intolerable. It is time — beyond time — for a national civic uprising. We must take action. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/a-bigger-threat-to-free-speech-than

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

"Trump and Bukele were relishing the fact that innocent men had been snatched from their homes in the United States and sent by our government, lawlessly and with neither evidence nor due process, to an open-ended sentence in a ghastly prison in El Salvador." www.thebulwark.com/p/two-dictat...

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

Senator Sanders and Reps. Ocasio-Cortes, Jayapal, and Khanna rising to the occasion.

If you are considering a trip to the US, please reconsider. Why reward Donald Trump’s America with your tourist dollars? https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/mar/18/us-trump-boycott

I need the Hegseth/Houthis version of this

Trump team leaks top-secret war plans via text, democracy roars in rallies and town halls, Trump loses in court (again), Greenland fires back at Trump, Canada calls snap elections & more! Watch the MeidasTouch Podcast at 8p ET/5p PT!

“Wait guys, P. Hegseth is typing…”

Step up, stand up, speak out.   This moment is hard — I don't dispute that, but this isn't the time to be afraid. Make your voice heard, whether it’s at a town hall or on the phone, so Donald Trump and Republicans know how sick and tired you are of them cutting your services.

And Hitler was a painter.

Shot. Chaser.

You think it’s an accident Tesla sales are down almost 80% in Germany? They know what his salute meant.

#econsky. Add it to your feed

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

It time for new leadership.

While the Russian Useful Idiot in the White House is busy claiming bullshit wartime authority to further his efforts destructing Democracy, just a reminder that everything he has said is a lie & everything that he says going forward will be a lie. As for his enablers, screw them.

I would like the people who were in my mentions complaining I was too harsh on Schumer to kindly shut the fuck up forever

The U.S. opposition is not serious.

Massive protests in Belgrade, Serbia call for the resignation of the pro-Kremlin president Vucic. #3E #EndImpunity #SerbiaProtests

Hey gang, I’ll be with you shortly at 4p eastern/1p pacific on “The Jim Acosta Show.” Joining me on the program: former Biden Admin official and New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu and a special TGIF interview with @thegoodliars.bsky.social - see you soon!

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.

Symphony orchestra audiences aren't known for their rowdiness, but the Vice President and Second Lady Usha Vance were loudly booed by the crowd as they entered the Concert Hall Thursday night.

Next lawsuit: Dogs vs DOGE

"I had a dream. A dinner guest in the White House mess last night was seated not far from Susie Wiles, Stephen Miller, and Russell Vought. He’d surreptitiously recorded their conversation, as one does. And he’d provided the recording to The Bulwark, as one should." www.thebulwark.com/p/plot-again...

An important piece by @hollybfletcher.bsky.social. "One of the heartbreaks of the Trump era for me is seeing my expertise as an Africa analyst become relevant for understanding political trends in America, [such as the role of] 'informal security forces.'” www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-afri...

Ate some scrambled eggs today like a goddamned millionaire.

On the one hand, it’s bad to turn the White House into a used car lot. But on the other hand, let’s not talk about how we are becoming a kleptocracy.

South African car salesman tells U.S. Senator, American astronaut and U.S. Navy captain: "You are a traitor"

He was always ahead of his time.

It's official: The lunatics are now running the asylum.
