A grotesque injustice by a cowardly company that deserves to be called out for its denigration of the constitution. And an illustration of Trump’s malign influence even beyond the targets of his reprisal agenda. popular.info/p/fortune-50...

I just spoke on the Senate floor about the rising costs, chaos, and corruption caused by President Trump in just 100 days. It’s time for the Rubber Stamp Republicans in Congress to stand up for their constituents and tell the President that enough is enough. Watch:

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

Pritzker: And we have a president who claims to love America but hates our military so much that can’t be bothered to delay his golf game to greet the bodies of four fallen U.S. soldiers.

Pritzker: As a Ukrainian American Jew who built a holocaust museum… let me say this to Donald Trump: Stop tearing down the constitution in the name of my ancestors. Do not claim that your authoritarian power grabs are about combatting anti-semitism.

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

Former IL Congressman, NY Times bestselling author and CNN Political Commentator @adamkinzinger.bsky.social's in THE BACK ROOM discussing the Ukraine/Russia war, Pete Hegseth and SignalGate, Trump 2.0 and the assault on democracy, the castrated GOP, RFK Jr & more! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

If you live in Arkansas: and your house was destroyed, and your neighbor was killed, and Trump denied your ignorant governor resources to help your state, and you don’t know how you’ll survive, and now, for the first time, you’re regretting voting for Trump… Good. Let that sink in.

Good for @theatlantic.com — this reeks of desperation for Trump and also keeps this amazing story alive. More pressure on Hegseth obvi. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

#OnMyWalk to protest No Kings in Ft Worth with @harttandsoul.bsky.social ❤️🇺🇸❤️

Just before 1 a.m., #SCOTUS stepped back into the Alien Enemy Act litigation with a (remarkable) ruling that suggests, among other things, that a majority of the justices is tiring of the Trump administration’s Calvinball. For more, see the latest “One First”: www.stevevladeck.com/p/144-the-su...

@podsaveamerica.crooked.com @jonfavs.bsky.social @jonlovett.bsky.social @danpfeiffer.bsky.social Great news. Hope you get another interview with @vanhollen.senate.gov

@timmiller.bsky.social @jvl.bsky.social @thebulwark.bsky.social This is great news! Hope you get an interview with @vanhollen.senate.gov

Important piece alert 🚨: Jack Goldsmith, Curtis Bradley, and Oona Hathaway discuss a 2022 statute that could force disclosure of any agreements between the United States and El Salvador regarding the facility where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is detained. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Judge Boasberg found probable cause that the DOJ is in contempt of his order regarding removals to El Salvador. I explain civil vs. criminal contempt—and what happens next. #ContemptOfCourt #DOJ #RuleOfLaw #ImmigrationLaw #JudgeBoasberg #LegalAnalysis #CivilContempt #CriminalContempt

Even if you (wrongly) believe that some immigrants lack due process rights, what’s to stop the government from claiming that *you* are an undocumented immigrant; removing you to El Salvador; citing an “administrative error”; and refusing to do anything to bring you back? The answer is due process.

We gotta deliver our message in unlikely places! With that in mind, tomorrow I’ll be speaking at Coachella with my good friend TN Rep Justin Jones about movement building! If you’re in the desert, come out.

On the Weekly Show with @jonstewart, @PeteButtigieg reminds us tariffs are tied to the real priority for Trump & Republicans: Tax Cuts for the rich Income from tariffs (aka taxes on us) *offsets* revenue the government loses when they slash trillions in tax cuts for the top.

Thinking about this quote, from JPMorgan's Michael Cembalist, today: www.jpmorgan.com/insights/out...

She's back....in Trump's office. Did she and Leon kiss and make up or was she also trashing Leon...one can only hope? Explore this gift article from The New York Times. You can read it for free without a subscription. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/u...

I was thinking that none of those numbers made sense, but holy fuck this is insane

Breaking: Mike Waltz the gift that keeps giving—or for Trump, the nightmare that won't end. My sources say Trump is fuming: first Waltz's ties to Goldberg, now WaPo's bombshell on Waltz using personal email for sensitive government dealings. Waltz will be looking for a new job soon.

HAPPENING NOW: Cory Booker is giving a marathon speech for as long as possible to protest Trump. Watch live here:

Basically @reidhoffman.bsky.social is sane and the other guy not so much

How do you distract people from telling them you don't care about them? You threaten them with the possibility of another term. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

Somebody needs to read the US Constitution
