Somehow, Trump has declared that we’re under numerous national emergencies from the Southern Border Emergency to the Energy Emergency, Trade Emergency, Public Lands Emergency, and Immigration Enforcement Emergency. Yet these crises seem so “urgent” that he finds time to golf every weekend. Odd.

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while: t.co/lg46ijHLDF

Just so we’re clear, the felon/GOP/oligarchs’ tax cut plan for the ultra wealthy will be paid by all of the rest of us! The plan is to cut our earned benefits including but not limited to Social Security/Medicare/Medicaid; & critical gov’t services e.g., SNAP, public education for children, science!

Joe Rogan explains to his audience why due process is important and quotes Ben Franklin — "it is better 100 guilty persons should escape than that one innocent person should suffer.” He argues against shipping people to a prison in El Salvador without trial because we think they’re gang members.

Complicit has a name.....

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

Dear @actblueorg.bsky.social: Nothing from me until your messages say anything but rush money, dollars, funding, MORE $. What are you doing with my money? Lining the pockets of everybody in the elections industry? Billions for paid ads, hotels, airfare, and WHAT? www.opensecrets.org/elections-ov...

DOGE is actually INCREASING the deficit. It has cut only a small fraction of what it’s claimed to cut. And it’s cutting the IRS and CFPB — both of which GAIN revenue for the government. So DOGE is a money loser — except for Elon Musk, who profits off fat government contracts.

Hell yeah…

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money, an EARNED benefit!

I know it bothers you as much as it does me that journalism as an institution can’t process that what it’s seeing on a daily basis is evil people doing evil sh*t Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t

So did Tulsi Gabbard perjure herself in front of Congress?

Thom Tillis casting the deciding vote to confirm Hegseth, and his shameful silence yesterday, should be a major issue in the 2026 NC Senate race.

If I could speak to the heads of big law firms, I would ask: Is the risk of losing some clients worth betraying your oath to the rule of law? To everyone nodding but refusing to take a stand, I say: You are ignoring Martin Niemöller’s message. It is you that Martin Luther King Jr. was condemning.

@schumer.senate.gov obviously you can’t handle the job. Resign.

My husband ran a successful business and used our local rural post office daily. My elderly neighbor’s meds come through the rural post office. The post office is one of the only places left open in my rural community. Losing it could quite literally kill my town and my neighbors.

It starts today!

Remember this!
