OPINION by @maddow.msnbc.com: “…there’s one element of what the president is doing that is so radically out of step with the American people that I don’t think it’s sustainable in normal democratic terms.” READ MORE: www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

The Trump administration just shut down a food safety committee to prevent bacteria in baby formula. They are also threatening to fire employees who prevent deli meat from being infected with Listeria and applesauce from being laced with lead.

The US military just purged their website of mentions of the Holocaust, 9/11 remembrance, cancer awareness, sexual assault, and suicide prevention to align with their new “anti-DEI” policies.

Yep. Rep. Larson: “By requiring seniors and disabled Americans to enroll online or in person at the same field offices they are trying to close, rather than over the phone, Trump and Musk are trying to create chaos and inefficiencies so they can privatize the system.” apnews.com/article/soci...

BREAKING: Donald Trump will sign an executive order dismantling the Department of Education, ICE is detaining U.S. citizens, the military removes mentions of the Holocaust and cancer awareness, and more. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

OPINION by @clarissajanlim.bsky.social: Clarissa writes how Donald Trump and Elon Musk have falsely claimed that Joe Biden left Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams in space for political reasons. READ MORE: www.msnbc.com/top-stories/...

"Strand, a veteran who served in Vietnam as a Seabee, was there to express his anger and dismay with Trump’s cuts of thousands of VA jobs. He wants Rep. Michael Baumgartner to know it. “I came home from Vietnam, betrayed,” Strand said. “I’m being betrayed again.” www.spokesman.com/stories/2025...

Hey Wisconsin! Early in person voting starts TODAY for the most important election since November 2024.

This is amazing

What a pub day for Everything Is Tuberculosis. Thanks to everyone who showed up in NYC to welcome this little book into the world. I just really hope you like the book. Thanks for reading it!

GOP lawmaker Justin Eichorn (R-MN) has been arrested on felony charges for soliciting sex from a teenage girl. He had previously spread claims that Democrats and LGBTQ people were trying to groom children.

A federal judge gives the government until tomorrow to answer about the Venezuelan deportees: 1) When and from where did the plane take off? 2) When did it leave U.S. airspace? 3) When and where did it land? 4) When were individuals transferred out of U.S. custody? 5) How many people were aboard?

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state www.wunc.org/news/2025-03...

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Meiselas: That’s our message to you from the MeidasTouch Network: Grow a spine. Vote against cloture. Vote against the CR. The American people are with you. Stop this hostile government takeover. Fight for the people.

trump has bruises on his hands, he drags his leg and is stumbling on the fucking stairs, clown boy is falling apart. You know the media would be all over this if President Biden were falling with bruises and shit. WHERE IS THE COVERAGE?

I cannot emphasize this enough: no one will remember the shutdown even happened when it’s time to vote next year. One way or the other!

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Hate to break it to y’all, but eventually… we’re gonna have to do something.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Last night I stood up for those who need Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Democrats will never abandon the fight to make sure every American has a safe, healthy, and financially secure life. #ISaidWhatISaid

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal: “Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine." @latenightercom.bsky.social

“Memo to Dem: Ronald Reagan is Not Your Friend” - @premthakker.bsky.social

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

For the record

“Any casual observer of the Supreme Court can see what many prestigious constitutional lawyers can’t, which is that the conservative justices are frequently accomplices to Trump’s assault on democracy,” writes Adam Serwer.

Unsparing.

Macron to make televised address to ease French voters’ concerns about Trump

I am utterly convinced now that, if Trump were to move to seize land from Canada, Greenland, or both, not a single Republican in Washington would meaningfully resist him. And a great many would just chant USA!

I sure would like to know who has been buying the dips right before Trump announces he has changed his mind and reverses a tariff. Seems like valuable information in the markets to know when he announces a tariff and when he’s going to rescind it.

Al Green fuckin' gets it. "Healthcare has become " Wealthcare. "" Fucking frame it.

Put this man in front of cameras.

Not watching it.

"Trump’s 'Crypto Reserve' Is Such Brazen Corruption" Trump plans to use your money to buy fake money, writes Jacob Silverman for Zeteo, benefiting the crypto donors who helped put him back in the White House.
