BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

Trump just denied North Carolina’s request for FEMA relief from Hurricane Helene, calling it “unwarranted.”

House sparrows go completely silent and disappear from my yard whenever a hawk flies over. They don’t help the hawk. I wish US voters were as smart as birds.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

More lost American business; more lost American jobs.

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

Our government feels like when Scar took over after Mufasa died. Just a bunch of ecological damage and hyenas running around this mf.

Virginians are losing their jobs. Our local economies are feeling the sting. Donald Trump's chaos in Washington continues. Meanwhile, my opponent doesn't "understand why" this is a big deal. Virginians deserve a Governor who will stand up for them. www.arlnow.com/2025/04/10/n...

As corporate media caved, independent media rose to the occasion to hold Trump accountable.

The Message Is Clear…. Let’s act on it!

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

So the felon in chief is demanding that Amazon stop selling books that reveal the truth about him. And watch Bezos bend the knee. Amazon will cave. They all will. Whiteness has exposed itself to be hollow and thin skinned. The tyrant will never stop demanding more and more of your soul.

Murphy: When you see the 10-year bond exploding… when you see markets moving like a sine curve—that’s the opposite of stability. A strong dollar is in our national interest. What we’re seeing now is the opposite of that.

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

This seems right, and all of this is WRONG.

Trump is fucking over retirees while back slapping billionaires in the Oval Office.

Running Ukrop's Monument Ave 10k in Richmond tomorrow? Be on the lookout for our Team Spanberger signs along the route. And the best of luck!

Hard to believe the hill the Justice Department wants to die on, we don’t want to comply with your order so we aren’t going to. Nothing like engaging in explicitly lawless behavior they don’t even pretend to regret.

“Remember his name,” the wife of Kilmar Abrego García tells the world. The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump regime to "facilitate" the return to the United States of Kilmar Armando Abrego García, the Maryland man whom the U.S. government abducted and sent to a hell-hole, torture-laden…

Casar: At the end of the day, this is about taking your hard-earned money and giving it to themselves—or funneling it to their friends. That’s all this is about.

BREAKING: The country of Norway just entered a bill to give transgender Americans asylum in the country of Norway… LGBTQ+ STRONG! 🌈✨
