Jon Cryer: I have Trump supporters in my family—I feel for them on some level, because we in the entertainment industry created this guy. We built up this image of a billionaire, this brilliant businessman, and it was never him. He was always kind of a moron...

This is a good move by @govpritzker.illinois.gov. More states should do this to send a message to Pres. Bukele that there is a price to pay for complicity in Trump’s unconstitutional abduction of Abrego Garcia. And American tourists should go elsewhere until he is given due process.

Yep. That tracks...

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

First RFK Jr says that people on the autism spectrum are useless eaters. And then he announces that the government is going to make a list of them, a “registry.”

Last week, I toured the Northern Illinois Food Bank to talk about why SNAP benefits matter for community members facing food insecurity in our district.

Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

Every state needs to do this ASAP

THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT IS THE LAW OF THE LAND AND A SUPERSTATUTE AND THE PRESIDENT CANNOT UNDO IT. sincerely, a constitutional law professor who also teaches employment discrimination

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

This a devastating loss for women’s health research. It is not efficient to destroy lifesaving research on women's health care. I'm calling on every member of Congress to join me in demanding that the Trump administration reverses course.

House Rep. Gerry Connolly is pushing CDC leadership to explain why the personnel who handle FOIA requests lost their jobs, noting that that the public has a right to access federal records.

There are no words for the kind of evil that appeared on the Fourth of July in Highland Park. No courtroom could ever replace the lives lost, but it can and should deliver justice. Today's sentencing will allow survivors and the loved ones of those impacted to continue to heal.

“Let’s be clear: None of this had to happen.”

Kindness, thoughtfulness and gratitude are some of the greatest expressions of love.

Two days ago he said eggs were down 95%.

This is correct from @joeweisenthal.bsky.social

Let's wake up. He's REALLY unpopular for this early in a term or really ever. President's this unpopular are already losing. Power becomes harder to assert when your power is fading.

On today’s solemn anniversary, I join Armenians in California, all around the United States and around the world in remembering the 1.5 million men, women, and children who were systematically targeted in a campaign of mass murder, rape, and brutalization by the Ottoman Empire.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Happy Earth Day🌎 As a big fan of our national parks, I've seen how good policies protect our environment. Nearly 100 days into his second term, Trump has gutted protections for clean air and water. We must protect our planet and ourselves from future harm from Trump admin! @houseseec.bsky.social

Happy Earth Day! I’m so grateful to represent a district and state with so much natural beauty. As this administration takes a chainsaw to environmental programs, we must recommit ourselves to doing everything we can to stand up and protect our planet and our people.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

HegsethGate isn’t just a scandal—it’s a national security crisis. Two Signal leaks. Classified intel on a family group chat. Chaos at the Pentagon. Allies weakened. Enemies emboldened. How much worse does it need to get? MORE: www.thedailybeast.com/hegseths-pen...

Oh, so jacking up grocery prices, crashing the stock market, threatening to slash Medicaid & SNAP, and slapping on ridiculous tariffs wasn’t enough? Now Trump’s coming for your paycheck and your tax refund—just because you fell behind on student loans during a pandemic.

Last November, I was part of a bipartisan delegation to Europe, meeting with financial leaders in Brussels, London and Frankfurt. Everyone we met was envious of the depth of US capital markets and economic outlook. Trump has destroyed both. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

The Pentagon has collapsed into a state of complete disarray under the failed leadership of Pete Hegseth. Signal scandals, multiple leaks, deceptions, and infighting have culminated to throw the Pentagon into a state of utter chaos. All this according to former top spokesperson…
