This is disturbing 😳 I’m not okay with tax dollars being used to incentivize the Gestapo. #abolishice

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is ā€œattacking the heart of truth,ā€ twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

🧵 To clarify what Eric Swalwell & Jasmine Crockett said: House Judiciary Republicans voted down an amendment stating ICE CANNOT deport U.S. citizens. You read that right. They refused to make it illegal to exile Americans. Here's the proof → tinyurl.com/GOP-judiciary

when I say they're dismantling the entirety of consumer protection, I genuinely mean they're dismantling the entirety of consumer protection

Marco Rubio is going after people who are living here legally and peacefully, who are not a danger to America or our foreign policy interests. He has strayed so far from who we are as Americans. He’s an embarrassment to the country.

Former Capitol Police officer: I would love nothing more than to move on from the worst day of my life. But as current officials attempt to rewrite that day… and pardoned criminals are making runs for office… the true patriots have become "nothing but afterthoughts."

Hi, I’m God. Jesus and I are very much against the defunding of childhood cancer research.

He lost Dave again.

can't spell tariffs without ffs

This is a widely inaccurate & dangerous mischaracterization. The vaccine was developed in fetal cells obtained from two elective abortions in the early 1960s. There is not abortion debris floating around in the vaccine. And the Vatican has okayed its use. RFK Jr. is again spreading disinformation.

The so-called ā€œmoderateā€ GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion. Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates. What’s ā€œmoderateā€ about that?

A new report found that Elon Musk faced at least $2.37 billion in potential legal liability from 11 federal agencies on inauguration day. Many are now on DOGE's chopping block or have dropped their investigations into Musk's corporations. "Conflict of interest" is an understatement.

If you told me the sole item on Trump's domestic policy agenda was to find every endangered animal in the United States and euthanize it, it would make as much sense to me as the current Trump domestic policy agenda, which seems to have no relationship whatsoever to anything any normal person wants

the absolute mendacity of this blithering killer of children

Sen. Ossoff: Who out there in the American public is sitting at home demanding that we shut down cancer research and Alzheimer's research?

Why is it up to @rollingstone.com to write the most honest and direct headlines? www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The ā€œparty of lifeā€ does it again: ā€œThe Trump administration has cancelled federal participation in Safe to Sleep, a 30-year campaign to prevent babies from dying in their sleep, STAT and the Medill News Service have learned… at a time when sleep-related deaths among infants have increased.ā€

Swalwell says the House Judiciary republicans just voted to allow Trump to deport US Citizens. From IG:

we need to spend more time with @repdangoldman.bsky.social's clip. not a single penny toward disaster relief but TONS OF YOUR CASH to "protect" drumpf's golf habit 🧢 @mrsquirrel.bsky.social @zentrixter.bsky.social

RFK Jr. ordered the NIH’s Integrated Research Facility in Frederick to stop all research on serious infectious diseases yesterday at 5:00 PM. They study pathogens like Ebola there. You may be familiar with it from The Hot Zone. www.wired.com/story/hhs-ni...

ā€œIt was heartbreaking.ā€ A federal program offering Utah farmers free therapy was so successful that it ran out of money in four months. But lawmakers have chosen not to continue funding it. @jessicamiller.bsky.social @sltrib.com

Catholic Cardinal says the next pope must move against homosexuals because church doctrine has to be based on what Jesus said. Only problem? Jesus never said one single word about homosexuality. Or abortion. www.joemygod.com/2025/04/card...

Incredible reporting from @nlanard.bsky.social and @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social

Reminder. www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

The dismissal of National Climate Assessment authors this week and notice that its scope is being "reevaluated" leaves the door open to a compromised report serving fossil fuel interests at the cost of American communities. I talked to John Vause about this concern on CNN International last night.

NEW: Farmers are dying by suicide at the third-highest rate by vocation in Utah. But after a federal program offering mental health support ran out of money, the state did not continue it. By @jessicamiller.bsky.social, with @sltrib.com

As a party, we are prisoners being held hostage by people who simply refuse to accept that their time has passed and won’t accept that others more capable right now. Stay in the Senate, but step down from leadership. It’s time for a new approach, a new face, & a new voice.

April 28, 2025: Migrants are making SOS signs out of their bodies so drones can see them at our country's concentration camps.

yeah i am pretty much on the side of primary everyone

It’s interesting that secret service told reporters the guy who stole Noem’s purse what a white male, then they wait a week and DHS says it was an undocumented migrant but refuses to give any other details.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ā€˜deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

The world is on Zelensky’s side. Zelensky applauded by world leaders upon entering church.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

...if you add up the tiny fires in our internal combustion engines and our stoves and furnaces, in our coal and gas-fired power plants, in our container ships and airplanes, you see billions of small fires that add up to a conflagration, a world on fire. We are here to put out the fire....

If he cannot carry out his agenda without breaking our laws, violating our Constitution, ignoring the judiciary, alienating our allies and crashing the economy… It’s a criminal agenda.

"Some see".... Are the others blind?
