Ooops! Ooopsie! Did we do that? We didn't mean to do that. Definitely don't blame us for doing that. Oops! Day one funding freeze Oops! Ebola Oops! Nuclear security workers Oops! Bird flu Oops! PEPFAR Oops! HHS firings And on and on and on... Now this. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/b...

It’s very weird to me that in all the (genuinely comical) hermeneutic reading of Trump’s decision to annihilate the global trade system, no one actually quotes one of the major reasons he himself cites for it:

Yet again the Vice President of the United States JD Vance is blatantly lying. The man is not a “convicted gang member” — he is a father of a disabled child married to a 🇺🇸 citizen, with no criminal record. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

TOMORROW: There’s a crucial election in Wisconsin that will impact the midterms and 2028. Help us GOTV for Susan Crawford and secure the liberal majority on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court. For WI residents: indivisibleproject.formstack.com/forms/2025_s... For everybody: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

I'm Shenna Bellows, and I've fought for the people of Maine my entire life, from the campaign for marriage equality to the ACLU to the office of Secretary of State. Today, I’m proud to announce that I’m running to be the next Governor of Maine! bellowsformaine.com

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.   An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

Trump is the kinglike president many feared when arguing over the US Constitution in 1789 – and his address to Congress showed it

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

Democracies stand with Ukraine.

Baier: Right. I'm not hearing from you, Mr. President, a thought that you owe the president an apology? Zelenskyy: No. I respect president. And I respect American people. And I'm not sure that we did something bad

Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME.  Denigrating a democratic world leader while sitting next to him has not only jeopardized our work with global allies. Once again, Trump's ego just put our national security at risk.

This is how it’s done.

Both Gov. Janet Mills and Attorney General Aaron Frey issued written statements Friday morning pledging to fight any attempt to cut off the state’s funding. Frey and others said such action by the president would be illegal and overturned in court.

I really feel like the Right's war on acronyms is getting a little out of hand.
