As he began speaking on the Senate floor Monday night, Cory Booker said that he intended to disrupt “the normal business of the Senate for as long as I am physically able,” citing his belief that “our nation is in crisis.” He wasn’t kidding. 🔗 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Wisconsin! Judge Susan Crawford will work to protect your rights and freedoms. So get out there and vote today by 8pm. You can find your polling place at wisdems.org/vote. If you have any questions about voting, call or text the Voter Assistance Hotline at 608-336-3232.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred. As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence. Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

Please share, it’s so important to my state & our country! Hey Wisconsin, tomorrow is the day, make your plan and follow through. Vote for Susan Crawford-I can’t give you a million dollars, but I can give you a million reasons why she’s the better candidate starting with these!

The thing I admire most about Jeffery Goldberg right now is that he didn't sit on his incendiary scoop, waiting to reveal it only when he could make money from it in a book, like so many other selfish people who know shocking things about this administration have done and will continue to do.

The thing about watching a JD Vance speech is that everyone knows he’s a little pig man. Everyone knows he exists to squeal for Trump‘s amusement. No one respects him and he clearly doesn’t respect himself.

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Yep

Dear Greenland JDVance will try to turn you against Denmark. Don’t believe a word he says

Marines learn on Day 1 to never wear their cover inside and damn sure never to eat with it on. Maybe Corporal Correspondent went to a different boot camp than I did.

Poor Stefanik. All that ass kissing and personality changing just to lose her leadership position and get her nomination pulled. Anyway, I had Greek yogurt for breakfast. With blueberries.

The elephant in the room.

Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz are responsible for an egregious mishandling of classified information that put our troops in danger — and they've refused to acknowledge the gravity of this breach.   They need to be fired or do the right thing and resign. Now.

What the actual fuck:

Yeah…Why does Pete Hegseth have a Russian email address?

Pete is spot on!

No accountability?

Here’s an unctuous toady who has zero scruples around caring about what could have happened to troops due to the morons running national security and confuses luck with what her actual job is, which is making sure people don’t have to rely on luck to stay alive www.nytimes.com/2025/03/27/u...

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Based on the replies l, it looks like there a lot of fed workers on @bsky.app I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now Thanks for your service to our country

Let it begin.

Exactly

Well, they lied. Obviously.

It’s like Watergate, only in this version Nixon directly mails the tapes to Woodward and Bernstein

Anyone who thinks Pete Hegseth will resign doesn't understand TrumpWorld. They have no shame. They have no introspection. They have no respect for consequences.

Lemme also just shout out ol buddy from Atlantic for not selling the Signal Group Chat for a book deal and waiting two years to reveal what was in it

Yes, Pete Hegseth and Michael Waltz violated all sorts of national security protocols by sharing military secrets with a journalist. But at least they were White when they did this. by Charlie Kirk

Thom Tillis casting the deciding vote to confirm Hegseth, and his shameful silence yesterday, should be a major issue in the 2026 NC Senate race.

I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

Considering his Legal & Ethical record, you would think the painting would be the lowest priority for this 34 times convicted, perpetual grievance monkey. Turns out, you would be wrong... #Pathetic 😁

🔑 under-discussed point — why they were on signal:

I would like to nominate Maxwell Smart for national security advisor.

Pete Hegseth never should have been tapped for this job. It's too important. He should be fired immediately.

So…lock them up?

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

Proud of you, Chris – not an easy feat. Stories like yours are exactly why it meant a lot to pass the ACA.

This energy right here.

I feel confident in predicting history will judge this decade or so as the absolutely stupidest time in American history. Honestly our kids and grandkids will read about this time and be shocked that adults existed.

Timeline cleanse 🌞

Respectfully @AGPamBondi, fuck off. This is America. We have free speech here. We are free to criticize @elonmusk. This is an utterly un-American thing for you to say. Just do your damn job. And re-read the First Amendment.

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money, an EARNED benefit!

The National Weather Service is facing significant staffing cuts and has temporarily reduced weather balloon launches at several sites. These balloons are a key tool used by meteorologists to gather data for weather forecast models.

the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed
