Hands off! Florence, Oregon

Senior Justice Dept. lawyer put on leave after questioning Trump administration. Word is spreading about the use of polygraph testing. New directives have gone out—coalition members, please check for updates.

Indeed

Absolutely proud of you all! HUG! So far, 3.1 million protesters counted today — that’s nearly 1% of the U.S. population! Photos are flooding social media everywhere. Still waiting on more numbers to come in.

Wow! Updated estimates now put turnout at 2.3 million — and we’re still waiting on reports from coalition members in other areas, with some events yet to begin! If you’re free, come out and join us. Over 1,400 events are planned across the country.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees that if playing golf with the Saudis is more important to you than honoring our dead soldiers, or dealing with the financial crisis YOU started, you don't deserve to be President. RESIGN, trump. You piece of shit.

• This is what democracy looks like — in Boston, Massachusetts. • “Hands Off!” protests against the Trump regime are off to brilliant start — all across America.

Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Trump golfed while the economic crisis he created wrecked our markets.

Today we march—nationwide! Join us and make some good trouble!

Time for a reality check… 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

Dictators of all stripes hate solidarity. They’d prefer that we cower alone. They want us to feel powerless. This is why I encourage you to participate in the peaceful demonstrations planned for today across America. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/april-5-hands-off-our-healthcare

“Federal courts may not have the power to compel the release of an individual from a foreign prison, but they unquestionably have the power to order the U.S. government to take whatever steps it can to effectuate the same result.” www.stevevladeck.com/p/138-abrego...

"They claim their tax bill is just all unicorns and rainbows. They’ll say everybody is going to benefit from a tax cut and typical families will get the help they need... It’s just not true." @wyden.senate.gov on the Senate GOP budget blueprint passed this morning.

Left-leaning organizations say that more than 500,000 people are expected to take to the streets to protest in Washington DC, Florida and elsewhere around the country on Saturday to oppose Donald Trump’s “authoritarian overreach and billionaire-backed agenda”. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Attention White House: Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.

We’ve set up a new task force to help keep you safe. At the last nationwide protest, 11 MAGA supporters were arrested for assaulting peaceful protesters—thanks to local authorities. We have coalition members at protests across the country to help monitor and stand alongside you.

Trump couldn’t be bothered. Why any vet supports ‘lil bone spurs’ is beyond me.

On Thursday, leaders from Lithuania, both political and religious, joined thousands of citizens to pay their respects to four American soldiers who died during a training exercise. Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausada attended the ceremony, President Trump didn’t. #Lithuania 🇱🇹 #USArmy 🫡

I'm about to be voting all night on Republicans' latest billionaire giveaway budget. Here's what you need to know: youtu.be/9LH--39-eiw?...

Tonight, Democrats forced a vote on a simple amendment. To remove new tariffs that are increasing the cost of groceries, gas and housing. Republicans rejected it.

Donald Trump skipped the dignified transfer of four of our soldiers because he had to go golfing with the Saudis in the midst of a catastrophic stock market collapse he intentionally caused and you Yankee Doodle dipshits still think he gives a single flying fuck about this country?

Breaking, per NBC News @garygrumbach.bsky.social -- Judge Paula Xinis in the District of Maryland has ruled that the United States Government must return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by April 7 at 11:59p

Reminder: Dr. Oz had to pay $5.25 million to settle a class action suit for promoting phony weight loss cures. He is a conman. No wonder Trump likes him. Now he's in charge of running Medicare and Medicaid.

Due to Trump's tariffs, America's poorest families will experience a loss of income that's 3x worse than the richest families. Meanwhile, Republicans are trying to pass TRILLIONS in tax cuts that will predominantly go to the wealthy. "Party of the working class."

History really is the best teacher, if we would only pay attention & heed the warnings…

Don’t worry friends… because all the MAGAincels who were experts on infectious diseases, vaccines, military withdrawals, presidential immunity, firearm forms, voting rights, presidential pardons…

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!

You effin’ dummies who voted for him trying to spin this shit show all because you can’t simply admit you were wrong are pathetic.

Trump just pardoned crypto firm BitMex for violating money laundering laws — making him potentially the first president in American history to pardon a corporation. It's truly a new Golden Age for corporate crime.

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

@wyden.senate.gov is spot-on: “While Donald Trump torches what used to be the world's strongest economy, Republicans scramble to pass a bailout for billionaires and big corporations.”

Here’s your morning slap in the face. I read this thinking it was recent… then I got to the end and wow. Trust me, you will have the same reaction.

Republicans in Congress are hoping you won’t pay attention to them for the next 36 hours. Why? Because they're pushing through their unpopular plan that gives tax handouts to billionaires and billionaire corporations and leaves everyone else in the dirt. youtube.com/shorts/RZ-nl...

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year. This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year. See what DOGE is really about?

tRump now attacking “DEI” in public schools. For God’s sake, if there’s any place where efforts to represent, mentor and inspire kids from all walks of life, it’s our public schools. Fuck Trump
