you’re telling me that yet another one of these guys is a degenerate sex criminal? i’m shocked

It is honestly wild to me that Republicans cooked up a bill that would prohibit D.C. from spending more than $1 billion of its own budget, devastating our city services out of pure spite, *and Senate Democrats might actually vote for it.* Utterly appalling. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

The news media gave more coverage to the idea Tim Walz retiring from the National Guard after 20 years was scandalous than to Trump's promise to destroy the department of education

The modern Republican party can accurately be described as a group of child molesters who are stealing from us

Fucking grifter

Walz: I own this. We wouldn’t be in this mess if we'd have won the election and we didn't. We have to make sure that Americans know it's not just that Donald Trump is bad, but we're offering them something better

NEW from me - Tim Walz is headed back out on the road – this time, for a tour of House districts represented by Republicans who have stopped holding in-person town halls amid the raucous receptions some of their colleagues have gotten across the country. www.cnn.com/2025/03/12/p...

Walz: "I keep saying this -- what is the goal at the end of the day? There's not a single economist who backs tariffs. Linda McMahon -- I bet she's never been in a public school. What is she is gonna do to improve our students' outcomes and lives? There's a vacuum for us to fill."

"National Lampoon's Vacation" meets "Mad Max" Out April 1. Come on THE LAST AMERICAN ROAD TRIP: www.thelastamericanroadtrip.com

Today is the 35th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, in which disabled activists discarded their mobility aids at the foot of the Capitol steps to climb them in support of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Ac. Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins, 8, told reporters "I'll take all night if I have to!"

Well, that should be fine as long as nobody on Social Security has mobility issues or visual impairment or difficulty navigating online forms.

I feel like we’re gonna get a lot of use out of this one

Reminds me of why people liked Tim Walz so much at the beginning of his '24 run. He seemed to have had actual conversations with actual non-employees and/or his actual children.

Kash Patel wants to criminally charge groups who received EPA grants for climate change projects. You know, like those greedy bastards at Habitat for Humanity. He thinks climate change isn't real, so he thinks these groups have committed fraud. Which of course is fucking crazy.

Why? He’s sooooo cool.

UMASS IS RESCINDING ALL GRAD POSITIONS FOR THIS YEAR

The fact congressional Democrats have not hired three dozen D&D rules lawyers with oppositional defiant disorder and turned them loose on parliamentary procedure with the goal of maximum obstruction is such a fucking missed opportunity

Have to respect the effort. Most people who'd killed thousands of old people and covered it up—or diverted state funds to produce their multimillion-dollar book, or conspired to keep their own party out of power, or groped countless unwilling women—would be satisfied they'd already hit bottom.

SOMEBODY SHOULD WRITE A SERIES OF BOOKS ABOUT THIS

looks like we still need to keep making those calls Schumer: (202) 224-6542 Gillibrand: (202) 224-4451

You come at really good lawyers, you best not miss

This is great, but Trump’s blurb should be “Everything’s computer!”

Trump questioning the Jewish identity of Chuck Schumer, like he did with Kamala Harris’s Black identity, proves yet again that he is a racist imbecile. His hate-filled rhetoric has no place in politics. His uninformed opinions don’t matter, and he must be removed.

Get ready for a large part of the US to look like 19th century London.

🧵When I was a librarian, easily half my day was spent helping people—and NOT JUST ELDERS—use the internet. They'd never really be taught, or only ever went online for email & FB, or some dumb update was a stumbling block, or THEY LITERALLY DIDN'T OWN A COMPUTER &/OR COULDN'T AFFORD INTERNET ACCESS.

@schumer.senate.gov LET THE REPUBLICANS SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT. LET THEM DESTROY EVERYTHING. SHOW THE COUNTRY HOW INEPT THESE PEOPLE ARE. YOUR BASE WOULD 100% SUPPORT THIS

Musk is nullifying Article I, that's it

OH HELL YEAH SPINAL TAP π youtu.be/P-Y51nBET8k

A few images from outside the federal courthouse in downtown Manhattan, where a rally in support Mahmoud Khalil took place in Foley Square. Captions in the alt-text.

Supporting this CR teaches Republicans they can do whatever they want to destroy the U.S. government for the rest of this country’s pathetic existence.

Research from 2022 that every Democrat apologist should chew on: “We do not find any evidence that accommodative strategies reduce radical right support. If anything, our results suggest that they lead to more voters defecting to the radical right.“ www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Coons: "I'm gonna vote against what came over from the House Republicans to the Senate last night because I don't want to give my vote to support what Trump and Musk are doing."

It takes some talent to say something that's simultaneously racist against both Palestinians and Jews in a single utterance, but Trump has a peculiar skill set.

like i said - this administration wants to "protect" jews like it is "protecting" women --
