Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

People experiencing miscarriages in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position. (Published Dec. 2024)

☎️ Stop the Crypto Bill. Flood their phones. Why are the Sellout Sixteen bowing to the crypto kleptocrats? No legislation should pass now. Trump has federal troops occupying LA, is rolling tanks through DC in three days, and THIS is your priority?! Switchboard: (202) 224-3121 1/

☎️ CALL YOUR SENATOR. Tell them to stop the crypto bill! They should not be doing ANYTHING to help Trump now, especially NOT this giveaway to the crypto kleptos FFS. (202) 224-3121.

The bond downgrade specifically mentioned this bill as one of the reasons.

Medicaid cuts went through Budget Committee at 10:30 last night, with changes still not public (and still no full CBO score) Next up: Rules Committee at 1 a.m. Wednesday, then floor vote by weekend Almost like they don’t want you to know what’s in the bill www.thebulwark.com/p/how-to-tak...

Ben of Ben & Jerry’s *arrested* after confronting RFK Jr. & Congress: "They need to let food into Gaza. They need to let food to starving kids! Congress is paying to bomb poor kids in Gaza, and paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US!"

The Justice Department has now filed criminal charges against Harvard scientist Kseniia Petrova for “allegedly attempting to smuggle clawed frog embryos and embryonic samples into the United States.” www.justice.gov/usao-ma/pr/r...

Hopefully there are a lot of people who voted for Trump watching armed state goons attacking a woman holding a baby and having the "are we the baddies?" moment.

South Korea impeached and removed their president for trying to do this. We should do the same.

Le Pape serait trans woke selon les MAGAS !😁😁🙄

guess who's the front-runner for governor now

He didn’t leave a life of luxury at all. He flies back to one of his many residences every weekend.

Ex parte Milligan says otherwise, Goebbels

What - and this is a phrase I don't use lightly because it has nearly ceased to have meaning with this administration - the literal everloving fuck? Inappropriate books in the library for children? Since when does the Library of Congress have a children's reading room or lend to kids what the fuck?

Your regular reminder that he is not a lawyer or even a law-talking guy

Trump’s “crypto dinner” is literally selling the power of the US president to the highest foreign bidders. THIS IS TOTAL BRIBERY — and an unconstitutional violation of the Emoluments Clause.

If someone asked President Biden if he had to uphold the Constitution, and his answer was "I don't know," he would have been removed from office immediately. Stop letting dementia trump get away with trashing the fucking Constitution.

Very Easy To Agree! You?😊💙

Now that Trump has openly admitted he could bring back Abrego Garcia whenever he wants, his lawyer tells me he will use discovery to determine which officials are advising Trump to defy the Supreme Court. New piece from me with lots of fresh reporting on this case: newrepublic.com/article/1948...

in less than a week, two conservative opposition leaders in australia and canada who tried to win their elections on anti-woke platforms (with an air of You Know Who) have not only lost their elections, but lost their *seats* as well. yikes. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Microsoft has dropped a law firm that settled with the Trump administration in favor of one that is fighting the president’s executive orders, in a sign that those firms can still attract clients.

1 May 1941 | A Hungarian Jewish girl, Julika Remenyi, was born. In June 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber.

Donald Trump's "Unleash the Cops" executive order is being rightly read as a prelude to martial law. But don't miss the other thing its doing: making the cops functionally unaccountable when they commit crimes. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Ed Martin, Trump's pick for D.C. U.S. District Attorney, ghostwrote online attacks against an Illinois judge with whom he was in a legal dispute. We obtained emails that show Martin bought a laptop for the woman who made the posts and coached her on how to make them look organic: propub.li/4d1aut5

Historical precedent tells us there’s no reason to expect a turnaround in Trump’s dwindling support — absent a war, which is something that worries me

More Dalio: “‘There is a growing risk that the U.S. … will increasingly be bypassed by a world of countries that will adapt to these separations from the U.S. and create new synapses that grow around it.’”

"The president campaigned on this issue that he explicitly denied and lied about which is why we're going to do it" Yeah, imagine the election may have turned out if Trump said "I will fire veterans and make it harder for them to receive care".

Conservative superlawyer Paul Clement joins yet another case challenging the Trump administration. This time he's representing Judge Hannah Dugan, who was was arrested after the FBI said she tried to shield an illegal immigrant from arrest. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

A major update yesterday that I admit to having missed (was getting work done and having in-person meetings and not spending as much time online): the ACLU amended its complaint in front of Judge Boasberg and, in a filing today, is seeking the RETURN of everyone deported under the Alien Enemies Act.

President Donald Trump targeted the financial backbone of the Democratic Party in a memo Thursday as part of a major escalation in his ongoing authoritarian effort to use the government to hamstring his political opponents, the White House said. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

So, that new give Putin all he wants "peace" plan Rubio floated this week? It appears to be illegal under a 2022 American law Rubio himself helped pass. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Donald Trump ordered the Department of Justice to investigate the leading platform through which Democrats raise money for their campaigns. Less that 100 days in, Trump is weaponizing DOJ to prevent his political opponents from funding opposition campaigns. Where is the outrage?
