@aoc.bsky.social: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Senator Sanders and Reps. Ocasio-Cortes, Jayapal, and Khanna rising to the occasion.

It gets worse: The order found that the administration was covertly withholding millions in FEMA funds from blue states.

Sending warm wishes to everyone celebrating Passover tonight. Hope you have a happy and meaningful holiday. Chag Sameach!

Just think about what this authoritarian coward is saying. He’s saying he has the power to deport people without any due process, but when it comes to bringing back the ones who were mistakenly deported, he says he’s utterly powerless. The courts must slap him hard.👇

Brilliant.

Reminder that the best time to stop giving money to the NYT, including the stupid online games? It was months ago. The next best time is today.

www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/... bahahahaha.. make them legal ! Who could have thought such a thing?!?

love the governor of Maine, modeling how you stand up! “I have spent the better part of my career listening to loud men talk tough to disguise their weakness.” I gifted this so you can enjoy it too! www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

Getting ruthlessly mocked by both China and Russia

So today, the Supreme Court told the President of the United States that he can't "accidentally" send people to an overseas prison and just leave them there. I want you to think about what has to happen for us to get to this point.

Maybe it would be easier to persuade other countries to join us if Trump weren’t systematically dismantling all the social and economic upsides of being American

SCOTUS is doing the right thing. This is about the rule of law and due process. Kilmar Abrego Garcia should be reunited with his family.

Same same same

I still can't get over how rapey the vibe of this tweet is from the White House, shocked it's still up. It sounds like trump wrote it.

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

Crazy that four dems voted for the save act... Voter suppression.

Donald Trump was recorded in the Oval Office happily bragging about how much money his billionaire buddies made off of his shady tariff scheme. (Insider trading amuses and delights this group.) “He made $2.5 million today, and he made $900 million! That’s not bad,” Trump said, pointing to…

Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates. Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

Content aside, just the aesthetics, the sound, the tone, the lighting . . . is dark. Not the vibe of a cabinet or government looking to foster a flourishing country set on life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

This is so fucking gross. This is a cult.👇

How about a little good news. apnews.com/article/alex...

small but significant thing I've noticed on Fox Business on days when market is tanking & Trump is president - they only show the Nasdaq ticker in the corner, not the Dow, to give people the impression the market isn't down as much as it actually is (the Dow is currently down more than 1,100 points)

Every time.

Trump targeted law firm Susman Godfrey, which represented Dominion Voting Systems in their lawsuit against Fox News, with an executive order. Susman Godfrey said “there is no question that we will fight this unconstitutional order.” 👏👏

This is horrendous— a bias attack still under investigation. "We're told the 7th grader was knocked unconscious after she said a group of girls attacked her & two friends who had on traditional head scarves, or hijabs. ...one of the girls may have been stabbed with a pencil." is.gd/SLftXy MORE⬇️

“It’s the most extraordinary attack on voting rights in American history,” Wilentz said. “This is an attempt to destroy American democracy as we know it. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/the...

How we doing? So much Trump jackassery. So little time.

The SAVE Act will go to the U.S. Senate next-make sure you call your Senators and tell them to oppose this bill. Call them daily until it comes up for a vote, if you can! They are trying to suppress the vote of marginalized people!

Trump took his tariff insider trading scheme to Congress and made Marjorie Taylor Greene an offer she couldn’t refuse. MTG is now a gleeful participant in Trump’s crime spree.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

On Thursday, Chinese officials retaliated against President Donald Trump’s tariffs by imposing new restrictions on US movies. That’s a big blow to America’s cultural cachet in the nation.

House again passes SAVE act, basically designed to disproportionately disenfranchise dem voters based on bogus argument of widespread voting fraud. They did it last year as well. Check out my @talkingfeds.bsky.social 1-on-1 w/ @mawaldman.bsky.social for a full rundown. Supposedly won't pass Senate.

Just ‘cause it passed doesn’t mean we have to stay quiet about this fuckery Call yer reps & tell them what you think of their priorities Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121

Listen to Nicole tell her daughter’s story and what it would mean to her family if MAGA Republicans cut Medicaid like they have in their budget resolution. Her daughter Sarah shouldn’t have to suffer so billionaires get tax breaks. Call your representatives and tell them Hands Off Our Medicaid.

Not sure how these people sleep at night

Trump is abusing his power to punish truth-tellers like Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor—issuing executive orders calling for DOJ investigations against them. This is authoritarian retribution, plain & simple. I warned this would happen & that he would falsely claim “treason.” This is deranged.

We have 3 branches of federal government. Usually, if one is not working properly, the other 2 can step in. Have we ever had another time in our nation's history when *none* of the branches were working? Yes, the judiciary seemed prepared to step into the breach--until SCOTUS ruined things again.
