I just introduced a bill to rein in Elon Musk and other Special Government Employees. Government should work for the American people, not billionaires lining their own pockets.

Senator Chris Van Hollen is on his way to El Salvador to discuss bringing Kilmar Abrgeo Garcia back home.

JUST IN: Judge finds 'probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations

Autism is not a disease and these kids are not damaged, despite what HHS Secretary Kennedy says.

Steve Kerr wore a Harvard basketball shirt after the Warriors’ win tonight: “Yes, this is me supporting Harvard. Way to go. Way to stand up to the bully.”

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

“For anyone who thinks the Associated Press’s lawsuit against President Trump’s White House is about the name of a body of water, think bigger. It’s really about whether the government can control what you say.” www.wsj.com/opinion/the-...

Congress needs to stand up for itself here.

“The President of the United States—the man with the nuclear codes—is angry and emotional and acting, frankly, erratically. And that is not my judgment. It is basically what his own Cabinet defenders are saying,” says Chris Hayes.

I am deeply thankful to @newyorkstateag.bsky.social and all those from various states in the U.S. who joined in this lawsuit to prevent Trump from destroying and deleting the Department of Education! #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@sunrisemvmt.bsky.social and many others were outside the Department of Education today. We're here to #ProtectOurKids. Trump shouldn't pull the rug out from under students with disabilities and students who need pell grants.

THATS ALREADY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AND THEY ARE SAYING IT WILL CONTINUE UNDER THE CR

WATCH-- Gov. Tim Walz on holding town halls in red districts: "I'm going to go out there and make sure those folks down in Iowa know that their rep doesn't want to come talk to him, but he voted for this stuff."

Let’s talk about money — Elon Musk has a lot of it, and he’s trying to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court election to end the liberal majority in this battleground state. But your support is helping our organizers fight back as early voting is set to begin next week: secure.actblue.com/donate/scowi...

Trying to abolish the Dept. of Education — which, by the way, only Congress can do — sends a message that the president doesn't care about opportunity for all kids. Maybe he cares about it for his own kids or his friends' kids or his donors' kids — but not all kids. www.cbsnews.com/news/educati...

I agree with this thread. Among the many things Democrats are not good at right now is simply saying that a Republican policy is immoral. It's a word we should be hearing every day.

Without federal funding, Louisiana students won’t have the resources they need to learn and grow. Thank you United Teachers of New Orleans for standing up for our kids. #ProtectOurKids wgno.com/news/louisia...

Scoop: The Trump Administration now says that it can install whoever it wants at independent agencies, absent Congress talkingpointsmemo.com/news/exclusi...

France to Ukraine: We’ve got you. U.S. intelligence is frozen, but Paris says its own intel support stays strong. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s fight just got harder with American aid in limbo. Who else is stepping up?

I can’t believe Chauvin wants this. He worked out a deal with the feds that allows him to serve his state sentence concurrently with his federal sentence in a federal prison. Trump can only pardon him for the federal offenses. As a result, a federal pardon …

TLDR: The 51st state talk is not a joke. It is a consistent delivery of threats to Canadian sovereignty at the highest levels of government. Our reporting out today. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

The tide is shifting. Republicans are beginning to recognize that the attacks on trans people need to stop. They do nothing but demean people & distract from the work government should be focused on—improving the lives of all who call this country home. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The Department of Homeland Security said Friday that it was ending its collective bargaining agreement with workers in the Transportation Security Administration.

I feel like this article needs to be reposted over and over again by all of us. The fight against Trump is going to be brutal and hard and scary and long. BUT we can do it. Read this article. We need NUMBERS! We need EVERYONE to fight back EVERYDAY! Are you in????? www.bbc.com/future/artic...

That would be another guardrail compromised.

Democrats who do this will be primaried and chased out of the party. I don't give a damn who you are. You should be apologizing to Al for not walking out with him, you spineless clowns

some interesting dynamics here, including senate gop trying to reassert control and musk (seemingly) not understanding that

Here I react to the shameful behavior of American leaders and media toward the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

Just over three years ago, Putin launched a surprise attack on Ukraine. Today in the Oval Office, the American president and vice president followed in Putin’s bloody footsteps

Are you subscribed to our Feminist Buzzkills pod? Get on that! @mojilocks.bsky.social and i bring you all the adobo news with rage and hilarity to keep you sane! Listen up!

That press conference was the most disgraceful act of betrayal I’ve ever seen.

Answer to Vance: Zelenskyy has thanked our country over and over again both privately and publicly. And our country thanks HIM and the Ukrainian patriots who have stood up to a dictator, buried their own & stopped Putin from marching right into the rest of Europe. Shame on you.

Trump is obsessed with getting a Nobel Peace Prize, which helps explain his fury that Zelenskyy won’t surrender to Putin at Trump’s behest
