HELP! I'm being inspired against my own will! I'm feeling seen! I'm uncovering hope under layers of cynicsm! Who is this spokesperson for a self-reflective party that is committing to fight back, and what does he think he's doing??

Hey folks! If you're in Florida and Wisconsin today, GET OUT AND VOTE!

Reminder: Don’t forget to vote today in WI and FL’s 1st & 6th districts!

Thank you.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Wisconsin! Judge Susan Crawford will work to protect your rights and freedoms. So get out there and vote today by 8pm. You can find your polling place at wisdems.org/vote. If you have any questions about voting, call or text the Voter Assistance Hotline at 608-336-3232.

Secretary Hegseth must resign. He lied. Now, we have new reporting about Hegseth’s wife. If the White House doesn't provide more facts, then this raises all sorts of red flags.

Just in NIH grants, It looks like beautiful Iowa City, home of the U of Iowa, will lose $71m in funding. That's almost $1k per resident. And that's before all the other cuts to SSA, FDA, etc. Anyone in Iowa City that can offer more insight? scienceimpacts.org H/T to Prathima !

Thank you ! Are you going to overlay any other agencies and their cuts ?

Make this go viral! Her husband’s life was put at risk by the Signal texts.

It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal *honor* to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote

Town Hall Time! Anna Paulina Luna won’t talk to her constituents. So I will!

You're not overreacting

Pretty snazzy hypocrite, granny.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Every Dem Senator, Governor or, if unavailable Dem House member, should be doing the same

This is it, right here. 🔥 “I’m always curious what exactly conservatives mean when they say they love America because you hate most of the people who live here.”

Who made him president.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

DO IT

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now. Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings. I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them. Get local media there. Make it real.

I don’t even know how this could be presented as being in service of anything other than hindering scientific progress.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Oliver Darcy has some very good points here

The U.S. government has put up a submission form for reporting schools who teach kids about “DEI.” It accepts file uploads. Internet, you know what to do enddei.ed.gov

If your employer self insured, share this with your management. Your CEO doesn't realize they are getting ripped off on their pharmacy benefits. Here is how www.nasdaq.com/articles/elo...

This is just straight up the Great Replacement conspiracy. Which is what motivated the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting and the anti-Black shooting in Buffalo.

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

Women deserve to know the TRUTH about the impact of Texas' total abortion ban. Today, I along with Rep. Gerry Connolly, Rep. Summer Lee, and Rep. Ayanna Pressley sent ANOTHER letter calling on Texas to explain why it won't release maternal mortality data from the past 2 years after Dobbs.

It's only going to get worse. Those laws and systems all exist for a reason. Safety regulations are written in blood.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

🤣

You guys, this is not great

Goodnight y’all! Here’s to hoping tomorrow is a better day.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "We have 8,400 firefighters working the lines; 16,000 personnel; 2,500 National Guard trying to address the issue of looting; 750 CHP as we speak; we have the EPA starting to do phase 1 of the debris removal... All of that [rightwing disinformation] is a deep distraction."
