This new season of Andor is well-timed given our current political situation. The parallels are striking.

Wanna snuggle and nap with me…?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com can always be counted on for his straightforward accounting of the news. “Trump has made himself..a humiliated, worldwide loser.” May Lawrence always be free to present us with a truthbomb #CupOfJoe.

even Fox News is having a hard time spinning Trump's first 100 days

"These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace." -Governor J.B. Pritzker

I suspect some of you have missed your daily Bruce 🤣

Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”

Some friendly advice. When we organize, we win.

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after. But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

I was talking to a teacher who works at a low-income school and was dreading the upcoming book fair. Me: Why? Her: Most of the students can’t afford to buy a book Me: Not this year Happy Easter

We even got the media to cover it! Thank you everyone!

EXACTLY.

19-year-old Merwil Gutiérrez was arrested just steps from his apartment in the Bronx. “The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, ‘No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.’”

Protester to Greene: You butch body bigot!

It is becoming unbelievably difficult to stay both informed and sane

Whoa…this 🔥🔥🔥 Trump called out for “Market manipulation” by @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Yes, businesses absolutely need to show the tariff at the checkout screen. Don't hide it into the cost of the product.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Don’t look at me, I voted for the black lady who didn’t want to burn down our economy.

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
