⚡️ HAPPENING NOW IN NASHVILLE — giant line to get into the Senator @elizabethwarren town hall @marshablackburn hasn’t done one in 8 years, Hagerty has never done one. So Senator Warren is here.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Hey remember that time Trump touted Foxconn’s Wisconsin investment that never happened? Seems like we don’t talk about that enough, especially on days like today. Take those “trillions in investments” he’s claiming with boulders of salt. www.theverge.com/23030465/fox...

This is what election-rigging looks like.

At least Nero could play an instrument

I kind of want to go

The National Endowment for the Humanities warned museums across the country that it was slashing funding, including money previously pledged to places such as LACMA and the Japanese American National Museum.

So weird how this keeps happening. www.axios.com/2025/04/02/t...

Autism puzzle pieces evoke negativity, research shows. So if an autism organization wants to make people feel positively towards autistic people, puzzle-piece imagery is probably NOT the way to go. From @gernsbacherlab.bsky.social at TPGA: thinkingautismguide.com/2017/09/stud... #AutismAcceptance

One actually serves a useful purpose.

Too good not to share

Worth pointing out that Trump's CIA director John Ratcliffe, who was in the Signal group chat, and who ludicrously tried to defend it in Congress this week, was confirmed with the votes of 21 (!) Senate Democrats. Ridiculous.

GOP Rep. Bacon: "Everybody that reads the messages knows that it was inappropriate for the secretary of defense to put when we were gonna bomb Yemen, when the aircraft are taking off ... I have no doubt that Russia and China are able to read those messages. I would be very surprised if they did not"

Oh, perfect. Trump has put Musk and his staffers in charge of investigating how Jeffrey Goldberg ended up in the Signal chat. I’m sure we can all expect a thorough, unbiased report any day now (Sarcasm).

It does not affect you at all. #TransRightsAreHumanRights #LGBTQ

To Canadians travelling to the U.S. for longer trips: Anyone visiting U.S. for periods > 30 days must now register with the U.S. government. “Failure to comply with the registration requirement could result in penalties, fines, and misdemeanor prosecution.” travel.gc.ca/destinations...

Rep. Adam Smith: "There are contexts within which the Signal app can be fine. There is no context under which you discuss active war plans and specific targets in advance of the attack."

Yep. You read that correctly.

"Republicans are so in bed with the rich establishment they promised to stand up against that they want to fire the judge standing between a corrupt billionaire and our Social Security data." New via @andrewbatesnc.bsky.social.

Trump indicates that he's not planning to fire anyone over SignalGate

BREAKING: In past 24 hours, it appears that two journalists — Mohammad Mansour and Hossam Shbat — were specifically targeted and killed by Israel, simply for doing their job: reporting on the devastation. This is deeply troubling and not something I can remotely support as a supporter of Israel.

We were told not to share this publicly, but last year was record-breaking—America’s national parks saw over 331 million visits.

BREAKING: The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to halt a ruling ordering the rehiring of thousands of fired federal workers from several agencies.

The president's latest executive order directs the Dept of Education to be closed, and withholds federal funding from schools that support DEI. @autisticadvocacy.org "condemns this executive order, as well as any further attempts to defund or dismantle the DoE." autisticadvocacy.org/2025/03/asan...

WATCH: Stephen Miller tries to insist Venezuela is “invading” 🇺🇸 to justify Trump deporting alleged gang members with zero due process, claiming judges have no jurisdiction. (Reminder: TBI claimed TDA was in all our cities when police had no idea what they were talking about)

Rather than distance himself from his painful memories of the tsunami in Rikuzentakata, Roki Sasaki has taken a proactive approach to preserve his more pleasant recollections of his upbringing.

Bad news for Lindt fans.

Accurate.

BREAKING: Israel says it is cutting off its electricity supply to Gaza, a week after cutting off all supplies of goods to the territory. Israel has sought to press Hamas to accept an extension of the first phase of their ceasefire after it ended last weekend.

Breaking: DHS detains Palestinian student from Columbia.

Fact-check: True

Schiff: "I was just listening to your guest [Hassett] trying to explain that these on-again off-again tariffs are not about trade. It's a drug war, but next month it's a trade war, but now it's a drug war. It was incomprehensible ... they're destroying the economy. That's where we need to focus."

The Trump administration has directed nonprofits involved in a $20 billion Biden-era climate initiative to turn over records to the FBI and appear in federal court later this month.

It’s borderline criminal.

The nature of a cult is that it will turn you against your own family. Your loved ones will cheer as you are led off to the camps because hurting even you is what is necessary to bring on the glorious nation. apnews.com/article/trum...
