Thank you for stepping down and passing the torch.

NYC could have had Maya Wiley.

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - President Lyndon B. Johnson

This is how you change the world. Start locally.

@maddow.msnbc.com Thank you so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you. OMG! Thank you! You heard us. 😭 #altgov #irsstrong.

Hallelujah! Social Security Administration will NOT cut phone services because YOU used your voices. Thank YOU ALL! YOUR VOICES MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Please keep calling & make yourself heard! www.axios.com/2025/04/09/s...

BREAKING: The Senate just passed my legislation to undo Trump’s idiotic tariffs on Canada. I challenged him and won this battle. Next stop: the House.

This is a moral moment. It is not left or right, it is right or wrong.

This guy! Thank you Cory Booker. 🫶🏽

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

Senator @booker.senate.gov is still on the floor. 16 hours and 24 minutes. He is now blocking the confirmation of Matthew Whitaker to NATO. GO, CORY, GO!

I've said plenty about Booker in the past, but I'm in on this. For those people saying "this is performative bullshit" yes welcome to politics. But considering most of our leaders are capitulating, I'll take this kind of performance any day of the week

Jumi had his first post-surgery hydrotherapy session today and it was so cute I almost passed out Also: that’s peanut butter smeared on the tank to coax him to keep walking towards us Also: please notice his sweet little underwater paws

Confirming, as was obvious from context already, that this wasn’t a one-off. They are routinely using Signal to evade statutory record retention requirements.

Don't cry for me bureaucracy! The truth is, I never liked you. Not like flattery, or kleptocracy I'll take your cash now Then your democracy

WE WON! PI granted in substantial part in our @sddaction.bsky.social appointments clause case re USAID

This is your reminder that the current purge of federal agencies coincides with years of indoctrination by Christian school / homeschool social studies textbooks like Abeka.

NEWS: The MeidasTouch Podcast has expanded its lead as the top podcast in the U.S. per the newly released Podscribe industry rankings, with 121.1M downloads and views in the past month—a 141% increase.

We win again! Our administrative stay DENIED by the 9th circuit

I was just awarded the Peabody from "Allison's Peabody Awards" to be presented in my second bedroom which doubles as a podcast studio. I just want to thank all the wonderful competitors of which there were none, and the amazing judges which are me and my cats. GREAT HONOR!

Judge Boasberg is a hero.

Oh man, talk about not reading the room—Schumer picked the perfect time for a book tour. (sarcasm) @schumer.senate.gov hits the road next week to promote his book, while the people he abandoned are left in panic mode. You don’t think people will show up to protest, do you? Step Down Chuck

these are our party leaders now, ignore all other opinions

Supreme Court rules 6-3 that Teslas are priced to move with $0 down and no payments for 48 months

OK, a roundup response to the "they won't follow the court orders" people. First of all, you're wrong! The administration *is* following many of the court orders. What's more, they're showing their understanding of the validity of court orders by seeking stays pending appeal when they lose.

This is some excellent good trouble

Watching the government try to provoke the black community and us not falling for it is my favorite song

Damn right.

Unacceptable apnews.com/article/gavi...

Let’s go back to the ‘transgender mice’ comment the First Felon made at his rally in Congress. We all know he didn’t write his speech. Several people saw the speech and let him say it anyway knowing it was fucking ridiculous. They are laughing at him behind his back. He is indeed their useful idiot.

I fight through my tears everyday to keep you updated on Social Security & dismantling of major health care programs. I want you to know there are MILLIONS of grassroots people working on this. The judicial cases DO matter. We must live in hope NOT fear. As someone on SSDI, I get it. NEVER GIVE UP!

Well played.

JFC 🤦🏽‍♀️

I'm writing you to let you know there will be no change in The Handbasket's opinions. I am going to write every day in support and defense of two pillars: protecting marginalized people and telling billionaires to go fuck themselves. I'm confident this is right for America.

I’ve been on the ground in DC for 7 minutes and three(!!) people, all black, passed me and said some version of how it was “horrible” that MSNBC fired me. Plus one white guy who raised his fist from across the street and shouted “Keep fighting!”
