Breaking News: A federal jury ruled against Sarah Palin in her yearslong defamation lawsuit against The New York Times.

stephy the rat 🐀 glad he got told...it's easy to do this shit when it's just numbers and not real human beings....you put a face on it and that's a good thing.....

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...

It looks like the entire country of Lithuania attended the emotional send-off of the four soldiers who died in a training exercise, but the President of the United States decided playing golf was more important. This is a horrible person running this country. #USDemocracy youtu.be/d2ZNNUfoGK8?...

The Trump administration claims all Venezuelans it deported to a notorious Salvadoran prison are gang members. But a CBS News/60 Minutes investigation on April 7, 2025, found 75% had no criminal record—including a makeup artist, a soccer player, and a delivery driver.

I don't know what he's saying and neither does he

April Fools:

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Hey, @booker.senate.gov Your friends in Canada are sending you our energy to break the record. Let's go!

That asshole blew $24 Million dollars and won't learn a thing.

Coalition of Democratic state officials - including KY Gov. Andy Beshear - sue Trump administration over plans to cut $11 billion in health grants on same day thousands of Health and Human Services workers find out they are being laid off. @fischler.bsky.social kentuckylantern.com/2025/04/01/r...

Just to remind His supporters 👇👇👇

Corey Booker just raised the bar, concluding with a call for “good trouble.” Now his fellow Dems need to clear it—and raise it higher.

Murphy: "Newsflash: These guys are incompetent. They don't know what they're doing. We hired a weekend Fox News host with no diplomatic or management experience with a checkered personal history of abuse and alcoholism to be our chief national security official. And it's going very badly."

Necessary GOOD trouble

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

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.'"

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

I’m heading to the Senate floor because Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown a complete disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the American people. You can tune in on CSPAN, YouTube, X, and Facebook.

The good news is that there *are* people meeting the moment. youtu.be/EJxRtjma7lc

This is a mission everyone should be able to get behind. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have been torn from their families. No effort must be spared to bring them home:https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-administration-halts-program-track-abducted-ukrainian-children-lawmakers-2025-03-18/

The Alien Enemies Act (AEA) hearing has concluded and the Trump Administration has been blocked NATIONWIDE for the next 14 days from using the AEA against “all non-citizens in US custody” subject to Trump’s Executive Order.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed. No one knows why he was detained.

Chuck Schumer was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. Eventually the wheel of karma will turn again in the favor of sensible people, but God, am I tired of waiting.

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state www.wunc.org/news/2025-03...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.” WOW. Planes in air must turn around. A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

It's not hard. This is unacceptable. They won't stop at him.

Last night I stood up for those who need Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Democrats will never abandon the fight to make sure every American has a safe, healthy, and financially secure life. #ISaidWhatISaid

Here’s a nice story, I re-met this gentleman in Appleton WI last night, he was my opponents tracker in 2010, would come and record me, but was always polite. We got along well, despite being on opposite sides. Now we’re both on the same side!

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Photographer @winmc01.bsky.social deserves a Pulitzer!

Some 21 million Americans don’t have ready access to a passport, birth certificate, or naturalization papers. And the SAVE Act would require these documents to register to vote.

“.. In the end, the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. .. For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four?” - “1984” www.barrons.com/articles/soc...

I smell some good trouble

Rep. Andy Ogles is a complete and total fraud. Your resolution is going nowhere.

Canada is that boxer that punches above its weight class. We don't brag about our achievements and what we can bring. We don't say we're the best, pound our chest, and talk smack. But put us in the ring, well, we do David vs Goliath things.

Some "Russian Warship" vibes here from a tiny fed'l agency. via Brett Murphy: The African Development Foundation (budget ~$40 million) is putting up a fight and denying DOGE + Pete Marocco — the State Dept official dismantling USAID — access to their building:

The National Endowment for Democracy, a nonprofit that has had bipartisan support over decades for its work promoting democracy abroad, is suing the U.S. government and cabinet officials for withholding $239 million in congressional appropriations.
