I've seen this photo a thousand times and just now noticed that even Barron's toy cars are limousines... #pathetic 😂

“They don’t need to have 250 pencils. They can have 5.”

Trump wants a 100% tariff on foreign films. He claims the movie industry is dying. But this is not about cinema. It is about control—narrative lockdown, cultural purity, and economic siege. He is not protecting Hollywood. He is weaponizing it.

The Truth Of The Matter And They Are Not Bringing Jobs Back….

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today: He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution He’s fine with a recession Americans can do with less Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Rubio has like 9 jobs right now and he couldn’t even handle the first one.

The Trump administration now says they are allowed to enter your home to look for migrants without a warrant. They claim their actions are unconstrained by the Fourth Amendment.

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

Happy Lesbian Visibility Week to the lovely lady loving ladies in my life 🧡♥️💓 This is Meg Christian singing her song Ode To A Gym Teacher on I KNOW YOU KNOW (1974, Olivia Records Label). ORL was a feminist label founded by and representing many lesbian women of the time, including Meg Christian.

Happy Perfect Date!

NEW: Congress erupts over FBI arrest of Wisconsin judge

Pete Hegseth had an internet connection that bypassed the Pentagon’s security protocols set up in his office to use the Signal messaging app on a personal computer, AP reports

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

Don't forget research confidently shows that LGBTQ+ people are more likely to also be diagnosed with autism. Don't get me wrong. The RFK "research" on autism & invasion of private medical records is, by itself, terrifying enough. But it also provides easier info on queer & trans ppl specifically.

💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽

You. Cannot. Make. This. Shit. Up Hegseth orders makeup studio installed at Pentagon.

Among the awful here: He used his personal phone. What a sloppy mess: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

If you know, you know

Poor Pete Hegseth. It looks like he gave up drinking for nothing.

The nationwide measles outbreak now stands at more than 800 cases, but you probably don’t know that since RFK Jr is keeping a tight lid on that news. The orange areas in the below map show where the vaccination rate is under the 95% coverage target among kindergarteners. That’s a LOT of orange!

The trans protest in London was >huge< today. My ‘friends’ tab is full of protests; it’s interesting that the biggest protest today appears to have been in London, not the US. The historic tradition of trans ppl fighting at the forefront of human rights continues. #Stonewall2.0

Fun Fact: the American Revolution started 250 years ago today by real patriots fighting tyranny. Let's keep that energy moving forward

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

Ooops! Ooopsie! Did we do that? We didn't mean to do that. Definitely don't blame us for doing that. Oops! Day one funding freeze Oops! Ebola Oops! Nuclear security workers Oops! Bird flu Oops! PEPFAR Oops! HHS firings And on and on and on... Now this. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/b...

True facts are true

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

US Supreme Court orders temporary halt to deportations of Venezuelan migrants

20,000 in ruby red Utah on their feet, in community, and ready to organize for a better world. A better world is possible.

His name is Andry Hernandez Romero. He is a young professional from Venezuela. He is a makeup artist. He is a gay man. Andry was a target for abuse in his homeland of Venezuela. He was viciously humiliated daily — the victim of discrimination for his sexuality. He was also being persecuted for…

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

Very thankful to @sandiegouniontribune.com for covering the termination of our wastewater surveillance in San Diego. If we don't want to lose sight of infectious diseases in our community, we need new funding - please reach out: searchcovid.info www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2025/04/07/d...

Talking of Chicago weather and protests today, the phrase "no justice, wear fleece" emerged so be advised

Who did this?

This is a United States Senator MACK: I was laid off from HHS and now people aren’t getting social services, especially people with disabilities BANKS: You probably deserved it MACK: Why did I deserve it? BANKS: Because you look like a clown

I took @muellershewrote.com's suggestion and just reached out to my two senators, Sen. Tammy Duckworth and Sen. Dick Durban, to inform them of my desire to see Cory Booker as the senate minority leader. I do believe he can influence a new, much needed direction for the Dem party at this moment.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING Judge Susan Crawford is projected to win the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, defeating MAGA candidate Brad Schimel. Trump, MAGA, and Musk went ALL-IN on this race—and lost.

Cory Booker ending his record-breaking speech on the Senate floor: “Let's get in good trouble." What a fantastic way to cap off his epic 25 hour and 5 minute speech. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
