Can’t believe this needs to be said but here we are. The MMR vaccine DOES NOT contain pieces of aborted fetuses. The vaccine contains weakened forms of measles, mumps, and rubella viruses and inactive ingredients like rHSA, neomycin, and sorbitol to stabilize the solution. That’s it.

If Jesus Christ showed up today, this regime would immediately deport him to a foreign supermax prison without due process. And then they would brag about it on Twitter.

ICYMI — Maddow runs through the 100 day Fox/YouGov numbers on Trump’s approval—a total disaster for him. This one stood out for me: Q: “Can Trump ignore SCOTUS if he thinks they overstep constitutional authority?” A: NO — by a 49-point margin. Americans aren’t quite ready to crown Trump king.

Coolest pic of the day.....

“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite." -Pope Francis

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Every Democrat should read Liz Cheney's open letter to Democrats. “stop fundraising and start fighting” georgiatoday.ge/former-us-co...

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

For the mathematically handicapped

WATCH: “The Chinese told the 3 largest 🇺🇸 soybean distributors in China they can no longer do business there.” Tennessee’s #1 cash crop. Another Trump trade war farmer bailout won’t be far behind.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

Literally

Republicans pulled their budget vote—surprise! They’re too busy fighting each other to govern. They might be split on the math, but they agree on this: cutting services for working families & rewarding billionaires. This ain’t a budget—it’s a blueprint to rob the people.

Senator Murphy on the Trump grift and likely massive insider trading scandal that just took place

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

He's wiping out your life savings, destroying the Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid upon which you were promised you could depend, ending the medical research that would protect and prolong your life and that of your families & gutting your liberties...and he doesn't care about any of it.

April 5th 'Hands Off!' protests compilation #HandsOff #Resist

“Grab him by the TESLACLES” is pretty good. My photo from #handsoff rally DC.

The purpose of these tariffs is to be able to lift them to those who bow down to him and sacrifice their dignity. That is what he did to the GOP, the billionaires, and is doing now to Big Law. Those who stand up will be punished, those who bend a knee and humiliate themselves will be rewarded.

It’s 9am TFT time here, and citizens are already gathering to protest Tariffs by the United States. Our plain clothes Officer Penguins are attempting to maintain calm, but unfortunately we keep losing them in the crowd.

My question to MAGA, are you better off than you were 73 days ago?

Are we “Great” yet?

Axios now confirming👇🏽what we posted about earlier today: t.co/ZepxZXrQGO Here’s the email we shared that went out from the CEO: www.instagram.com/p/DHtDtAHP7Q...

Makes me wonder what's really going on

Worth pointing out that Trump's CIA director John Ratcliffe, who was in the Signal group chat, and who ludicrously tried to defend it in Congress this week, was confirmed with the votes of 21 (!) Senate Democrats. Ridiculous.

Much of the media's attention is focused on what harm Pete Hegseth's reckless irresponsibility might do to him, when it should be focused on what harm it could have done to our troops--and *will* do to our relationships with allies, especially in Europe.

I know it bothers you as much as it does me that journalism as an institution can’t process that what it’s seeing on a daily basis is evil people doing evil sh*t Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t

The National Weather Service is facing significant staffing cuts and has temporarily reduced weather balloon launches at several sites. These balloons are a key tool used by meteorologists to gather data for weather forecast models.
