Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

We want to take a moment to express how proud we are of you, America. You have stood up and spoken out every step of the way—especially when Congress and the media remained silent. When we called for help, you answered.

Propublica ❤️❤️❤️

New on @MSNBC: Some U.S. Agency for International Development and State Dept. career employees are concerned information in their personal devices may be being monitored. The employees received pop-ups in the last few days warning them that info on their personal phones or laptops could be tracked.

Thank you! A federal judge blocked U.S. DOGE employees from altering any records of payments at the Treasury Department while she weighs a request by public interest groups for a broader injunction against their activity. Thank you, U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s! 🙏

Musk is promoting a digitally altered video of Ilhan Omar, which makes it seem like she appeared at an event that she did not attend. Also, it is not "literally" or figuratively "breaking the law" to advise someone of their legal rights, which is all Omar is doing in the video.

Unions & think tank sue to protect sensitive information of Americans from DOGE. We represent @aflcio.org, the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), @seiu.org, @cwaunion.bsky.social, and @epi.org in this case to halt Musk & DOGE. Read the full statement here: bit.ly/doge-suit

Krishnamoorthi has an egg prices placard!

1/ ❗Really chilling. Thanks to Sen. Mark Warner, for releasing Memo from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to FBI leadership ordering the purge. -Memo is a clear abuse of power and weaponization of DOJ -Memo bolsters FBI lawsuits filed today. VERY clear the list is for retaliatory purposes

Lawsuits matter. More of this, please.

Chuck Schumer and those in Congress either need to go to NOAA HQ with federal law enforcement officers to arrest non-government people who are committing crimes by accessing government systems. Or, they need to go on-air right now to explain why they're not!

Sen. Mark Warner, the Intel Committee Ranking Member, calls the Trump admin firing of FBI officials a "blatant abuse of power is making us all less safe."

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

Chris Murphy: "We don't pledge allegiance to the creepy 22 year olds working for Elon Musk. We pledge allegiance to the United States of America."

Good Protect your democracies while you still can.

Do you think Merrick Garland is having a pleasant day? Just reading a mystery novel, going for a leisurely walk, learning the day's news from Colbert's opening monologue, solemnly chuckling "someone should have done something about these guys," then weighing which seven-figure memoir offer to take.

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?
