Speaker Mike Johnson floats the possibility of Congress eliminating federal courts. This comes as courts have blocked a series of actions taken by the Trump administration, along with Trump and his allies calling for the impeachment of certain district court judges.

To Donald Trump, leaking unflattering information about him to journalists is FAR worse than leaking military secrets to our enemies. Not even close. Waltz will be persona non grata.

Founder of Signal 👀 🔥

#WhiskyLeaks seems to have legs. Shaky legs, but they still walking.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

SCOOP: A WIRED review of public data shows that national security adviser Mike Waltz, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, and other top officials left sensitive information exposed via Venmo—until WIRED asked about it.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

And this is the average. There are always racial disparities in this data so the increase in materials deaths was likely higher for Black and Brown women

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

Three days ago Trump took away my non-existent security clearance…. At the same time his cabinet was texting top secret plans with a member of the media on board. Copy that

During the Biden administration, while some officials were permitted to download Signal on their White House-issued phones, they were instructed to use the app sparingly — and NEVER to share classified information on it. Pentagon regulations clearly state that messaging apps…

Pete Hegseth is a no patriot. He’s a twisted homophobe. And 100% unfit for the position he holds. glaad.org/gap/pete-heg...

They are using SIGNAL to hide their actions and conversations from disclosure to Congress and the public except on their own propagandistic terms.

Amazing how the GOP lacks any concern about war plans being discussed on Signal. Not only is Signal not secure, it’s not preserved. Zero evidence is left behind of these communications for review by anyone who can hold these individuals responsible.

1/ Every March 31, trans and nonbinary communities, along with allies, celebrate #TransDayOfVisibility, focusing on joy and celebrating the visibility of trans communities. But in a time of increasing anti-trans misinformation and disinformation, visibility comes with heightened risks.

Adding a journalist to a top secret government group chat about dropping bombs *IS* the kind of thing people who aren’t super politically literate can understand and find shocking/notable/disqualifying. Dems should seize on this and never ever let it go. I hope to hear about it in a decade

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

Zero accountability and nobody is going to sack him. This is America now. Criminals, sex pests, drunks and clowns. That’s your government.

Pete Buttigieg has entered the chat.

We got a little wet on our hike… but it was still a nice way to spend a few hours with good company!

Yesterday’s 3 hour 6.6 mile hike on Mt Quimper with @outinthewoodsvi.bsky.social

She is complete trash youtu.be/Y9qI_-rkzD0

The Sunday shows are keeping it real—Schumer gave away the game for nothing. Jen Psaki lays out what he could have done. He played this wrong on every level. And with a Social Security, Medicare, and a tax cut fight coming, do you really want @schumer.senate.gov leading the fight?!

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

Complete TRASH

Gonna start calling myself an AOC Democrat.

If you can’t see the rightward shift of the Dems you aren’t paying attention. It happened well before now, but many are starting to outright promote the mainstream right’s fascism. Only way out of this is to keep building up and standing with *actual* lower case d democrats.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

BREAKING: This is the crowd to see AOC in Greeley, Colorado where GOP Congressman Gabe Evans refuses to hold a town hall.
