People experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

Elon Musk staff has been caught installing hard drives inside the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Treasury Department, and the General Services Administration (GSA).

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

So sad! Bitcoin, XRP and Dogecoin Sink Amid Inflation Fears and Bybit Hack Fallout. Top cryptocurrencies—including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin—have nosedived amid rough inflation data and Friday's Bybit exchange hack [a mere $1.4 BILLION]. decrypt.co/307263/bitco...

This is how many hours per week a person needs to work in order to escape poverty. The US is dead last. #Poverty #USA

Secretary Turner wants to cancel HUD programs that serve seniors and people with disabilities. Harming seniors and vulnerable Americans does not make our government more efficient. Senator Warren, Senator Smith, and I are holding this Administration accountable.

I have identified at least two dozen pardoned Capitol Rioters that are currently attending CPAC in Washington, D.C. —including members of far right extremists groups such as the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers. Updates on Pardon Tracker's interactive visualization: embed.kumu.io/39b5108ec4a0...

We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...
