Trump tariffs prompt slump in shipments to US ports Number of vessels scheduled to arrive at Port of Los Angeles next week is down by almost a third year on year www.theguardian.com/business/202...

State organizations that advocate for disabled residents in New Jersey and Arkansas announced that they will have to limit their work after not receiving the full funds they are owed by the US federal government.

The Cuban-born mother separated indefinitely from her 1-year-old baby girl. Three young children, ages 2, 4, and 7 — three U.S. citizens — banished and vanished along with their Honduran-born mothers. The 4-year old sick and suffering with Stage 4 cancer — ripped from the comfort of…

Spent the last week holding town halls in deeply rural and red parts of Oregon. The message is clear: people are scared and angry, not knowing if their way of life will be next on Trump’s chopping block. Trump is losing support and trust across the country.

I voted! 🤞

If Biden had done this, Republicans would be drawing up articles of impeachment right now.

If you’re wondering what Elon Musk has been up to it’s not about saving Americans money. It’s about saving himself money. Musk has used his position leading DOGE to illegally evade oversight, derail investigations, and make litigation disappear whenever he chooses, on his terms and at his command.

Today would be a great day for Chuck Schumer to announce he’s stepping aside as Senate Minority Leader and isn’t going to run for reelection when his term ends. Agree?

Why would Canada 🇨🇦 Give up Universal Healthcare, better stance on Education, Climate Action, and more You think Canadians want a fascist regime instead?

One hundred days into President Trump's second term, DOGE hasn't delivered on its promised savings, efficiency or transparency in meaningful ways. But it has amassed unprecedented power over data.

Of all people that should respect due process, it’s the man who put off his arrest for so long, he gets to run the free world.

Former aide to Pete Hegseth, Colin Carrol, says Kegbreath spends half his time investigating leaks in the Pentagon: “If you look at a pie chart of the secretary’s day, at this point, 50 percent of it is probably leak investigation. Press. It’s that." Bro needs to resign already.

COURAGE. STRENGTH. INSPIRATION. Joseph Peters has autism and lives independently in Hackensack, New Jersey. He lives in his own apartment, assisted by an aide. Medicaid is absolutely vital to Joseph. Cuts of any kind would be utterly devastating to Joseph’s quality of life, and to the…

Perfectly perfect swift parrot siblings - green, fuzz, wide eyes - they’ve got it all 💚♥️💚

Absolutely explosive story on #Mediawatch tonight about Kim Williams interfering in ABC programming and doing the bidding of a bullying performer. Completely overreaching his role as Chairman.

Two things can be true at once. Trump can be very unpopular right now, AND he can still illegally run for a third term, which he can still illegally win.

Trump’s push to gut civil service protections under "Schedule F" would make government a loyalty test — not a meritocracy. Veterans who continue serving as public servants would be forced to swear fealty to Trump — or lose their jobs. That's not democracy. That's dictatorship.

Question: “Are you worried about empty shelves?” Secretary of the Treasury Bessent: “We have some great retailers. I assume they pre-ordered.” Clearly, he has no idea how small businesses operate — and he sounds completely out of touch

🚨 Stephen Miller's group filed a federal civil rights complaint with the EEOC against Shake Shack for "alleged race and sex discrimination conducted under the guise of so-called 'Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion' (DEI)" on April 25 Shake Shack today: Inclusion + Belonging Diversity is our Strength

Satellite data from the European Space Agency shows the surface temperature of the oceans is warming 4.5 times faster than they were at the end of the ‘80s. It’s not easy to predict climate change, and the reality keeps turning out worse than we thought it would be 🧪🔭 www.esa.int/Applications...

Good luck today Canada!! 🇨🇦 We’re thinking of you. Don’t allow what happened to the USA happen to you.

Happy voting day, Canada. Please remain the sensible one in this North American duplex we share.

GOP: Blah Blah Blah Tariff Tariffs Blah Blah Blah......America: TAX THE FRIGGIN RICH.....🤔🤔🤔

NEW—In late Feb, Chris Rufo published leaked chats between queer/trans employees at US intel agencies. Then Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said she’d fire all involved. I spoke to chat members who were fired, are on admin leave, and who kept their jobs about the new lavender scare:

Dear Canada, we Americans have no business lecturing you on elections, but I hope you learn from our mistake.

Think they’re ever going to get it? I’m going with no.

The Republicans consider basic human decency a ‘radical’ idea. Instead of passing legislation that actually helps working people, Republicans are only interested in making themselves richer and more powerful, even if it means abusing their power and skirting the law. Talk about radical… 😕

Sen. Jon Ossoff has signaled support for impeaching Trump. On Trump's meme coin last week: “When the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively payments directly to him, there is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense."

It’s time, Canada. Vote #CanadaStrong.

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

I haven't forgotten this scumbag.

JUST NOW: Leader Jeffries, Senator Coons, and Senator Booker sat on the Capitol steps, watched the sunrise, and talked about the budget fight. This is what we need—bringing people in and speaking plain truth. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @coons.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov

I’m not normally a bird watcher, but I was thrilled to catch a blue suited twit sleeping away the day.

We have hundreds of trade deals the way we have hundreds of miles of his Border Wall with Mexico.

. Nothing says “land of the free” like the White House proudly parading men who haven’t even had due process. We’re not a beacon of democracy we’re a garage sale of cruelty, corruption, and cash. History’s gonna laugh at how cheap we sold ourselves. .

Poilievre responds to Trump’s post this morning about Canada’s election today, since every time Trump talks about it Pierre loses more votes.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum: “In our relationship with the United States...Mexico is no one's piñata.”

Thank you, @bradleywhitford.bsky.social, for these wise words: “Despair is a luxury our children can’t afford, and action is the antidote to despair, and we need to be the change.” American women are in severe danger. We have to be actionable. Our children are counting on us. #MomSky

I will always stand up for access to Social Security, health care, and SNAP, for everyone in my district who depends on these vital programs. I spoke with @bluesboysteve.bsky.social on the @practivistpod.bsky.social to talk about the real impacts of recent federal attacks against these services.
