One way to read stories based on leaked docs: look at time from being circulated to docs getting published — bc that’s the amount of time it took to a) get someone pissed enough to agree to leak and b) get enough also-pissed people to confirm. These are slides dated April 29-30, published May 1.

She needs our support and our active help. youtu.be/-EjX7C5kYOM?...

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

Trump's decision screws over Arizona. By ripping up this trade agreement, he'll cost our state's economy more than $3.4 billion. He'll put 22,000+ Arizonans out of work. And he'll raise tomato prices by more than half, at a time when we should be working to lower costs.

TONIGHT: @repgregstanton.bsky.social joins @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com on The #LastWord at 10pm ET.

This is a moral moment. Honored to stand along my friend @captmarkkelly.bsky.social tonight at a town hall in Arizona. We must all keep speaking out against the actions of the Trump administration and Congressional Republicans.

“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.” – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Due process rights are fundamental to our nation–Trump taking them away from one person, is a threat to every one.

Our libraries and library professionals are keystones of our communities fostering minds and offering services to individuals regardless of background. We must lift them up, especially this National Library Week, and demand that Trump and DOGE do not gut support for these vital institutions.

Last year I had the honor of attending the send off for the 44th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and today I had the pleasure of welcoming them back home in NJ! Thank you Jersey Blues! I am grateful of the service and sacrifice of each of you and your families.

Wishing those who observe a peaceful, joyous, and meaningful Passover.

Grateful that @governor.pa.gov and his family are safe after an apparent act of arson at his residence. Acts of violence have no place in our politics. Those responsible should be held accountable.

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

“We are not monsters,” the officer told her after she asked if she was safe. “We do what the government tells us.” www.cnn.com/2025/04/14/u...

Utah!! "The arena has a roughly 15,000-seat capacity, according to the university. An estimated 1,000 more packed the arena floor, and about 4,000 crowded outside the arena..." utahnewsdispatch.com/2025/04/13/b...

"Its first target was Columbia. When that school acceded to the administration’s demands, it didn’t get its funding back. Instead, Trump is considering demanding that Columbia agree to direct government oversight — effectively, a takeover of the university..." www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

THREAD: Under a new law, thousands of prisoners in Louisiana have been cut off from ever getting a chance at parole. Why? Because an algorithm said so. 1/

BREAKING: Sens. DURBIN, GRASSLEY, LEE urge the Justice Department to reverse course on plans to shut down vital antitrust field offices, in new bipartisan push.

Grocery prices are still too high. Big Tech still has too much control over our lives. Closing antitrust field offices would only make it worse.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Dan Bongino’s team just sent this ‘response’ of empty platitudes. We asked about alarming promises he made before his appointment, like mass firing FBI agents and proving Jan. 6 pipe bombs “were an inside job.” He owes answers to the American people and Congress.

New reporting shows HUGE WASTE in spending at Guantanamo Bay. $40 million tab… $3 million on empty tents. Wasteful, inhumane political theater.

Vice President JD Vance dropped the College Football Playoff national championship trophy during an event on the White House South Lawn on Monday.

i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services. This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage. Keep up the fight.

This is well worth reading: "Whatever dam of despair that kept so many Americans quiet or despondent has now broken..." slate.com/news-and-pol...

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: “If I remember correctly — and forgive me because my memory is a little foggy — I thought Donald Trump was elected to lower the cost of living. Not raise the price of everything and tank the American economy. But that seems to be what he wants to do.”

Coming up at 8pm. Will talk about all the reasons why the tariffs are not fine and talk with Senator Warren about that. Plus Rep. Raskin and one of the former DOJ lawyers who was fired and testified today.

Asked Siri about the Dow and it’s just crying uncontrollably?

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Chucking in on Senator Cory Booker on the Senate floor 5 hours+ into his filibuster. “America, we are not doing a good job right now.” Nailing it! 🔥

Senator Booker: What kind of man is in the white house that makes fun of the disabled, who lies so much that the fact checkers lose count, that minimizes the pain and the suffering

'Freaking out': Trump mocked for saying 'out loud' why he withdrew Stefanik’s nomination www.rawstory.com/freaking-out...

fun fact: this will also raise the price of domestic cars. if a toyota corolla is 25% more expensive, what would stop Ford from raising the price on a comparable car, just not quite as much?

1) Karoline Leavitt practically ran out of that press conference after getting hammered by reporters. 2) Donald Trump is tanking the stock market because he's going to be babbling about more tariffs later....

Holy shit, Jon Ossoff just destroyed Tulsi Gabbard.
