Hey, I know a lot is going on, but seriously: do not drink milk or eat dairy by-products in the USA with the FDA deregulation. People are going to DIE. Don’t touch that shit with a ten foot pole. They fired 20,000 people. What the fuck is happening.

Pete Hegseth just ordered the installation of a makeup studio at the Pentagon for him to prepare for his television appearances, which will cost thousands of taxpayer dollars to build.

THIS is what we mean by showing up. Reps Carter, Thompson, Pressley and Sen Markey, went to a detention center where Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk are being held w/out due process. They didn’t just stand up for their own constituents—they stood together for all because there’s power in numbers.

Some good news. Medications and services that could be affected include statins to prevent heart disease, lung cancer screenings, HIV-prevention drugs and medication to lower the chance of breast cancer for high-risk women.

THIS IS WILD‼️ Florida got $67M from a Medicaid fraud settlement. Instead of using it for actual health care, Casey DeSantis funneled $10M to a “charity” she controls. That “charity” passed it to anti-abortion and anti-marijuana groups—who then helped fund GOP campaigns. Both measures lost!

TRUE STORY. They're all laughing at him.

Remember when Trump and MAGA influencers falsely claimed the Biden Administration was doing nothing during Hurricane Helene and other storms, despite FEMA providing hundreds of millions in aid? Remember their lies about FEMA funds being diverted, which sowed distrust in recovery efforts? 1/

Breaking News: Three federal prosecutors who worked on the criminal corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams said that they would resign rather than admit wrongdoing in refusing to abandon the case, according to an email obtained by The New York Times.

I filmed this yesterday on my way to Lousiana where my constituent Rümeysa Öztürk is being wrongfully held by ICE. I’m there now demanding her release. More to come.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

🚨 This is disgusting. 🚨 They’re willing to cut $880 billion in Medicaid for working people but are turning the blind eye to $500 billion in lost revenue from rich tax cheats. The system is completely rigged for the 1%. R-I-G-G-E-D.

What excuse with AG Bondi have for not investigating this? 18 USC 793. Last time it was that the info was not classified (really?) and it was not intentional. Now what?

NEW: THREAD: The VA is now asking employees to snitch on each other for "instances of anti-christian bias." You'll be rewarded with 30 pieces of silver (kidding). This is from an email from Doug Collins (I won't post screenshots in case there are irregularities used to identify leakers.) 1/

She’s now zero for two trying this case. She lost before a jury, got the judgment against her reversed on appeal because of procedural errors, and now has lost before a second jury.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Protecting the Earth is show not tell. Otherwise, nothing will exist. Mother Nature can be harsh, but what have we done for Her lately? Do your part—recycle; conserve water; lower carbon emissions; no plastics; safe pesticides. There’s no Planet B. #SheShed

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

What we’ve launched today is the first step for how we’re going to evolve verification. The initial set of trusted verifiers includes news orgs who’ve agreed to take on the task of verification for their journalists. In the future, this set will expand, as well as how apps can choose to use them.

Three prosecutors in corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams resign. Three remaining assistant U.S. attorneys on Adams case resign after they were ordered to admit wrongdoing. #MomSky #Voices4Victory www.reuters.com/world/us/thr...

This administration has abandoned our men and women in uniform. Veterans shouldn’t have to worry about losing their jobs or benefits. They fought for us, we have a duty to fight for them.

If you think the J6 defendants didn’t get due process you should take that up with the high level DoJ officials in your administration that represented them.
