AOC: That is the story that Republicans tell—not mine, but all of ours—when they say a waitress or a working person is unqualified to serve in Congress. But the truth is, many of us are far more qualified to understand what real life is actually like than any of them ever will be.

Are you...? An Ex-Pat voting ing NC? Deployed Military voting in NC? Student voting in NC? 👇🏼 youtu.be/mweuHQ2nxPY?...

The crowd and overflow crowd for the Bernie Sanders/AOC event tonight in Utah. Wow.

Grateful that @governor.pa.gov and his family are safe after an apparent act of arson at his residence. Acts of violence have no place in our politics. Those responsible should be held accountable.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. The courts must order that the administration cease detaining and deporting ANYONE until they come into compliance with the law.

"These are defacto tax cuts for the wealthy paid for by the poor" - Steve Liesman on CNBC

Pres Trump has now placed and removed tariffs repeatedly with zero concessions from other countries. Which chapter of Art of the Deal described negotiating with yourself? The message to other countries—ominously for the US economy—seems to be they should wait for when Trump concedes to Trump.

Ftr, while the President said “there was no exception” for tech on Friday, the Customs document calls it an “exception.” Which is all quite exceptional. (Thanks to @mbandman.bsky.social for the link.)

First, I didn't know Steve Liesman was here. Second ... what he said.

Right now, domestic and foreign investors are essentially selling America. They are selling its bonds, stocks and currency, and the outlook for all 3. They are perhaps also selling the leadership. Tariffs and Trump create new equilibria for US assets and markets now saythey're at a lower level.

The government plans to call Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg to the witness stand. The trial is expected to run nearly two months in a federal courtroom in Washington.

Would men need to provide a marriage certificate to vote? No? Just women? Got it.

Over 50 million views on TikTok later, folks always ask if I KNEW my leopards song would go viral. short answer, you never know. long answer, i definitely worked for it! Watch my full interview w my friend Delina where we chat about the science of going viral: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt51...

My statement on the arson attack targeting Governor Josh Shapiro and his family during Passover.

He's manufacturing chaos because he has nothing to offer. No vision. No ideas. No interest in building anything. Just tearing down what others have built.

Every week I write a Sunday night column about The Week Ahead. This week, it’s about taking back “woke.” open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Another lovely hummingbird, the Crowned Woodnymph. These have a large range through Central and South America. #birds #nature #colombia #hummingbirds 🌿

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

Measles exploded in Texas after stagnant vaccine funding. New cuts threaten the same across the US

When the Dump administration….Hell, basically anyone on the right, says things like “The numbers are better than what we expected!” They mean “We expected it to tank completely but it’s still hanging on by a thread!” Read between the lines.

I just want to tip my hat to the crack team of White House economists who were able to discover--in just a few short days--that the U.S. is dependent on China for smartphones, computers and semiconductors.

WATCH LIVE: Fighting Oligarchy Tour with AOC And Bernie Sanders in LA

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.

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

BREAM: The nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget calls the budget "an absolute disgrace." The GOP is supposed to be the party of fiscal discipline. Why did you vote yes? LANKFORD: That is the wonderful DC math that's coming through on this

When old Soviet Union jokes are applicable to America today, you know something has gone terribly wrong.
