I think if Harvard retroactively accepts the president to the Graduating class of 1965 and walks back the rejection letter he received, this all goes away.

People are lining up for hours at Kharkiv blood center to donate for Sumy, because it’s the closest option. How can anyone think we’d give up even an inch to Russia? Photo: Anna Gin

Good for Harvard

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?” I’ll give you one simple answer: It’s because you matter

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

Shout out to my TV daughter, @lavernecox.bsky.social. "Clean Slate" is streaming on Prime Video and whatnot.

As health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the agencies he leads have taken far-reaching steps to undermine confidence in vaccine efficacy and safety.

More. Of. This.

First they came for the innocent man deported to a Salvadoran gulag on an “administrative error” they falsely claim they’re powerless to reverse, flouting court orders even from the Supreme Court — and I spoke out, because I know how the damn poem ends.

"Its first target was Columbia. When that school acceded to the administration’s demands, it didn’t get its funding back. Instead, Trump is considering demanding that Columbia agree to direct government oversight — effectively, a takeover of the university..." www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

Today's meeting between El Salvadoran strongman Bukele & Trump makes plain the Trump administration's plan to disappear people from American soil under the guise of "foreign relations" aided by a SCOTUS created loophole big enough to fly planes through - youtu.be/5qOLpYJUhi0?...

"the worst and dumbest people in the world gloating about how they solved the ‘grift’ of sending lifesaving medications to dying babies...” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/o...

Our government is actively taking the position that it can grab anybody it says is a foreign terrorist off the streets and put them in a Latin American prison, and if they get it wrong, there's no recourse. The contempt for law and liberty here is beyond belief.

I am horrified by the violent attack and fire at the Governor’s Residence — and relieved to know that Governor Shapiro and his wife and family were rescued to safety in the middle of the night. (1/4)

The attack on Governor Shapiro and his family on the first night of Passover is hateful and horrific. I am grateful for their safety and sending love to him and his family.

Exactly! Doesn’t make all that much sense does it? 🤔😖

Did anyone notice that Buekele didn’t wear a tie? I thought that outraged people when Zelensky didn’t

I have 3 daughters in Virginia public schools. I want them — and every other kid in Virginia — to have a world-class education. Strengthening our schools will be a priority for me as Governor.

@daniellemoodie.bsky.social "Bernie is out drawing crowds across the country, fighting for democracy. Schumer should be embarrassed, and Whitmer's WH appearance is emblematic of everything wrong with the Democratic party. They have learned nothing." [Paraphrase.]

I’m so grateful Governor Shapiro and his family are safe, and that law enforcement has taken the suspect into custody. This despicable act of violence, which happened during the first night of Passover, has no place in our society. www.cnn.com/2025/04/13/u...

Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

We haven’t reached bottom yet. Because there is no bottom to his moral depravity.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

“So Trump not only refuses to comply with the Roberts ruling, but he has now completely mischaracterized it. What will the Supreme Court do in response? That’s the question we’re working through today. So let’s dig in.”

Utah!! "The arena has a roughly 15,000-seat capacity, according to the university. An estimated 1,000 more packed the arena floor, and about 4,000 crowded outside the arena..." utahnewsdispatch.com/2025/04/13/b...

It should be easier to vote than to buy a gun

There was a more immediate all hands response to a guy turning himself in outside Kavanaugh’s house than to someone trying to kill Gov Shapiro’s whole family.

The president who in 2020 had unidentified federal agents deployed against protesters is now encouraging a foreign dictator to build more prisons to accommodate "homegrown" "criminals," as he ignores a court order to effect the return of a guy sent to a foreign prison without any due process.

Trump on the phone to large DC law firms: “Yeah, we need a couple million dollars worth of pro bono legal work to help us build some concentration camps in Central America and kidnap Americans who say inconvenient things and send them there.”

AOC says they have 20k in the house and 5k outside the building at the 'Fight Oligarchy' tour rally tonight in Salt Lake City at the University of Utah’s Jon M. Huntsman Center. ✊

If Jeff Bezos can send Katy Perry into space, he can pay a wealth tax so every American has debt-free healthcare.

Violence has no place in our country, and I condemn the criminal act that took place at the Pennsylvania Governor’s Mansion last night. I’m thankful that my friend Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family are safe. Britainy and I are praying for them.
