REAL ID is coming… and so is your existential crisis if this comic is relatable. 😆 You know that flimsy driver’s license you’ve been carrying around? We'd love it if you upgraded that to a REAL ID between now and May 7th. Learn how to #GetREAL and avoid awkwardness like this: www.tsa.gov/real-id

Another day, another oddly specific request not to conceal brake fluid inside ZzzQuil bottles at the airport… (No seriously– please stop)

While the stock market continues to crater, President Trump is personally ordering criminal investigations of people who disagreed with him in his first term.

Writes @betsyphillips.bsky.social, Trump's cuts could kill off the ecosystem of writers, historians, museums and libraries that sustains us.

www.cnn.com/2025/04/05/p... Elon’s DOGE is expected to come for Homeland Security next — with cuts to critical agencies like the Secret Service and FEMA. Our national security is NOT a game, and Elon sure as hell shouldn’t be the one playing it.

Keep downplaying the protests at your own peril. Keep threatening Americans. The protests will only get bigger. Trump is hated. Musk is hated. The political winds have shifted. People are fed up. This is only the beginning.

CNN's lead: "Millions of people took part in protests" against Trump and Musk "across all 50 states and globally on Saturday, organized by a pro-democracy movement in response to what they call a 'hostile takeover' and attack on American rights and freedoms." www.cnn.com/2025/04/05/u...

💙 DC never disappoints. #handsoff

Elizabeth Warren takes the stage in Nashville! (I’m not there. This was sent by a source. Add your photos, videos, thoughts in replies.)

Elon is doing his best to throttle posts about the Hands Off! protests. What a little f’n baby. 🙄

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

The #HandsOff rally in Chicago is packed!

WOW NYC💥💯 #HandsOff

Catch a replay of Rep. Al Green's speech at the "Hands Off!" rally in Washington, D.C. today here:

Raskin: They say the number of courts striking down trump's policies is completely unprecedented. So what? That's only because the number of his illegal actions are completely unprecedented.

My kids for the last few months when we were looking to relocate for work: “no, I don’t want to move”…. My youngest when I said it might be difficult to get the Nintendo #switch2 in the USA because of the economy: “we should move”

have we considered free trade with japan. i want $20 switch 2s

Now that’s a split-screen. ⛳️ @wsj.com

THE FILIBOOKER: Cory Booker has been holding the Senate floor and speaking for more than 14 hours to protest the "grave and urgent" threat posed by the Trump administration. He's showing no signs of stopping.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

"The problem with a delayed response is that the more power leaders with authoritarian tendencies accumulate, the harder it is to mount an effective resistance. The opposition is thus more likely to succeed if it acts early..." www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

It's all about power and propaganda. The Trump White House wants to assert power over the press corps; push the White House Correspondents' Association out of the picture; and promote media outlets that provide sycophancy, not scrutiny.

Rubio implies Ozturk's arrest was "not just because [she wanted] to write op-eds." Trump admin told AP she was "engaged in activities in support of Hamas." But what did she actually do? Read the op-ed. THIS is grounds for deportation now? apnews.com/article/tuft... www.tuftsdaily.com/article/2024...

Uh oh the Trump administration accidentally added us to their group chat

Pete Hegseth is a danger to this country and our men and women in uniform.

Raise your hand if you didn't accidentally reveal top secret war plans today. 🙋‍♂️

if you think this is bad just wait until Trump tweets out the launch codes
