Horrible crap buried in the 389 page behemoth Congress is trying to shove down our throats: blocking any state from regulating AI for the next decade. If you don’t want to bow down to tech bros in this way, get involved at fairshareusa.org www.techpolicy.press/us-house-com...

This is horrendous. And also purposeful. RFK Jr. wasn't put in charge of HHS to Make America Healthy Again. He was put in it to control our bodies, spread misinformation, and make our health system even worse than it is. The cruelty is the point. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

NEW: DOGE staffers tried to assign a team to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting after President Trump's purported firing of three board members last month. CPB leaders denied that request, citing federal law spelling out its independence from government. More on @npr.org:

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked: -Paid family & medical leave -Universal childcare -Universal pre-K -Expanded Child Tax Credit -Programs to support reproductive health Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

I agree. 🤔☮️💙🌊🐕‍🦺

THEY ARE ARRESTING ELECTED OFFICIALS FOR PEACEFULLY OPPOSING THE REGIME’S ILLEGAL ACTIONS. DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO OVERWHELM YOU. THIS IS NOT NORMAL.

The war in Gaza has killed or injured 170,000. Children are starving to death. Trump is encouraging the ethnic cleansing of 2.2 million people. Why is there no discussion in the US government about why we are spending billions of taxpayer dollars starving children in Gaza?

Whoopsie! 🤷

"EXCLUSIVE: Dem Voters Overwhelmingly Say US Should Cut Aid to Israel Until It Stops Attacking Civilians" From Palestine to economics, a new poll from Data for Progress and Zeteo shows likely Democratic primary voters prefer a more progressive approach.

Trump and his administration have lost seven cases so far today.

But her emails…

Today marks 40 days since Andry was forcibly removed & disappeared by the government. ICE’s paperwork confirms what we feared: Andry’s disappearance was a secretive AEA rendition. We won’t stop fighting until we #FreeAndry. Full thread from @l-toczylowski.bsky.social 👇

If you take anything away from my post, I hope it's this:

1 month and still no accountability. Hegseth must be fired.

Jan Schakowsky, the incumbent in my race, will reportedly not seek re-election. So it seems like a good time to reintroduce myself — I’m Kat Abughazaleh and I’m running for Congress.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, then it’s a duck !

I know how to manage a crisis. #Debate2025

What the actual fuck Portland Police Bureau? I don't wanna hear one more goddamn sob story about how we can't cut the police budget but we have to cut kids' bball programs + our city parks before they cut the bloated PPB. There is no reason for a vehicle like this besides oppression. None.

NEW: A federal judge has once again blocked Department of Government Efficiency staffers who are operating inside the Social Security Administration (SSA) from accessing sensitive personal information of millions of Americans.

Sick people

oh my god

I’m not.

Personally, I’d apologize for a long thread of engagement farming that copies the work of a ~7,000 word NPR investigation without linking to it or acknowledging that it’s the tireless unmatched work of @jennamclaughlin.bsky.social. 🤔

We apologize for the length of this post, but we felt it was important to share the full details with you.

one senator insisted on seeing his constituent one that’s all it took to apply pressure what the ever living fuck are the rest of y’all doing???

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.

UPDATE RE: Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador

Unemployment up. Stock market down. Mortgage rates up. Consumer confidence at worst levels since the Great Depression. Are we great again yet?

How in the fuck do we live in a world where so many Americans care deeply about the Constitutional amendments which promise them the right to bear arms but not at all about the Constitutional amendments which promise them the right to due process under the law? #NewsCorpse

And if they had the power to spring Tate out of Romania, they have the power to spring Abrego García out of El Salvador.

Soofia’s story is one heartbreaking example among many, and builds upon myriad anti-immigrant policies Trump tested out during his first term.

If the judge is looking for an attorney to prosecute the Trump administration for contempt of court... 🙋‍♂️

Disturbing really, that Congress can’t put aside partisan politics to address the security and integrity of the United States of America. Where is the party that ousted Nixon for far less?

U.S. government officials must stop treating imprisoned people as props. “The obligation of humane treatment is expressed in few words but is nonetheless fundamental. It imposes a minimum standard, namely a duty to respect prisoners’ inherent human dignity and inviolable quality as human beings.”

David Hogg, a controversial Democratic National Committee vice chair, is pledging to upend Democratic primaries by funding candidates who will challenge “ineffective, asleep-at-the-wheel” Democrats. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

This Administration is trying to erase a human being. Don't allow it. We are all connected.

Musk has placed the entire staff of the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) on administrative leave.

My partner is autistic w/ multiple masters degrees. Pays his taxes. Played college football. Happily married for 24 yrs. He's a special ed teacher. RFK Jr is a eugenicist spouting "useless eater" rhetoric who doesn't see autistic people as fully human. He only cares if they pay taxes to the rich.

Attention: Musk’s staffers are now seeking access to a sensitive Medicare database as part of their crackdown on undocumented immigrants. DOGE was never about saving the U.S. money—it’s about building a government-run machine to weaponize personal data.

This man is a eugenicist. His unhinged attacks and cockamamie theories on autistic people are incredibly dangerous.

This is disrespectful and a flat out lie that further stigmatizes autism. It’s not a virus or a disease - it’s a neurological condition with a wide spectrum. Many Americans with autism work, pay taxes, and are living happy and healthy lives.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

The simultaneous crash of the stock market and the bond market is super ominous. But also a totally foreseeable consequence of this insane tariff policy. So is it incompetence or part of a plan to crash the economy? An increasingly important question.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

I love the internet because Katy Perry went to space and seemingly no one gave a single fuck😭😭😭
