@murray.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @schatz.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social How many times are we going to be Charlie Brown with the football?? Stop playing the rigged game with cheaters. Vote no. Deny. Obstruct.

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

Lawyers who waste the court's time like this should be disbarred.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

🚨Trump and Musk said their illegal hiring freeze wouldn't hurt Veterans. They LIED. All across the country, VA employees are reporting that essential programs - such as healthcare and the suicide hotline - are being impacted. READ MORE: federalnewsnetwork.com/veterans-aff...

JUST IN: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has fired at least 20 employees who were involved in reviewing Elon Musk's brain implant company, Neuralink. -CNBC

@raskin.house.gov: "The whole anti-corruption crusade is an absolute fraud. They started by decimating the ranks of the inspectors general. These are the people whose job is actually, day in and day out, 365 days a year, to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in the departments and the agencies."

With Trump declaring himself above the law and Musk calling for jailing journos, there's a big risk voters get acclimated to this kind of authoritarian talk and come to see it as normal. Another reason Dems must step up now. My exchange w/Steve Levitsky on this: newrepublic.com/article/1916...

#ProudBlue Trump is asking SCOTUS for an emergency hearing to hear a case that would allow him to fire all Government employees that are not loyalists. He wants to get rid of Hampton Dellinger. An independent watchdog U.S. for the Office of Special Counsel youtube.com/shorts/UDLAP...

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

🚨🚨🚨🚨DOGE is breaking into Social Security records too now www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Crazy how quiet Media & Political Elite have been about our new concentration camps: How many people are in Concentration Camp Gitmo? What countries are they from? Are any American citizens? Are they getting lawyers? Are they being held in humane conditions?

Michael Steele goes off about Elon Musk and DOGE: "They've got your data, dumbass...I want somebody to show that they care enough to get off their fat ass and say something about it." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Every news article on FB is littered w comments from people who believe this. I've tried to persuade them with evidence. They don't care, so I've started telling them to remember our conversation when they lose Medicare & prescriptions are unaffordable & their social security check goes poof.

Jose Barco, a decorated U.S. Army veteran once based out of Fort Carson who served 2 tours in Iraq, was taken into custody last month by ICE because his citizenship papers, which were supposed to be processed while he was in the Army, were lost. Read his story:

So you can just say you work at DOGE and pillage anything from our documents you want. The law truly doesn't exist anymore! Cool!

ATTN HHS EMPLOYEES: Firing notices are going out. I am in receipt of an email saying they will revoke your access as soon as you read the email that you've been fired. Please download everything you need before you open that email. SHARE FAR & WIDE. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/attn-hhs-e...

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans. Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

after the overturning of roe, black infant mortality has spiked nearly 11% in states with abortion bans: www.reuters.com/world/us/inf...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that she has rejected a request from Louisiana Governor Doug Landry to extradite a New York doctor who was previously indicted by a Louisiana grand jury on felony charges related to her prescribing abortion-related medication to a woman in Louisiana.

READ Danielle Sassoon's letter to AG Pam Bondi, via @nytimes.com: "Rather than be rewarded, Adams's advocacy should be called out for what it is: an improper offer of immigration enforcement assistance in exchange for a dismissal of his case." static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

Putting RFK Jr in charge of our nation’s health is like putting Jeffrey Epstein in charge of child safety.

With both RFK Jr and Gabbard confirmed, two people who rose to prominence spreading conspiracy theories about public health and national intelligence will now run the U.S. government agencies in charge of those areas. For someone studying these conspiracy theories for a decade... this is nauseating.

Hey, here’s some of what @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social did today 👋🏽

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

California’s right-to-know law, which requires companies to warn people about harmful chemicals in their products, has swayed many companies to stop using those chemicals altogether, a new study found.

Why would a little boy say, “Shut the fuck up” if he wanted someone to be quiet? Was there someone in his life who maybe repeatedly said that to him? Also, where would he get the idea that Trump *isn’t* the President? Did someone also say that repeatedly to him?

Nailed it

It appears our entire national security apparatus is now owned by Vladimir Putin As Trump waxes poetic about Russia The Senate confirms Tulsi Gabbard-who spouts Russian talking points And Pete Hegseth sells out Ukraine This begs the question What will be the long term ramifications for NATO

Trump orders White House to be renamed Don’s Mojo Dojo Casa House

Pope Francis' remarkable rebuke of JD Vance and Trumpism lays bare an essential truth: Trump is overseeing a massive and systematic abandonment of obligation to the global poor, and Vance's theological obfuscation can't make that disappear. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1914...

That’s nothing. I found 13 contracts awarded to SpaceX since December totaling $77M. 1/

Just got a tip from a guy at the FAA. You'll never believe who is still getting new government contracts while all the contracts at the Department of Education and USAID and other agencies are being nuked from orbit.

The Acting President discusses affairs of state, while the young boy and the old man share their boredom.

If you have a child with a 504 plan or IEP please watch. If you don’t…watch anyway because if you’re reading this, you know someone who does. Please call your representatives and tell them to stop this nonsense! Children need advocates to protect them. Please be one. Part 1

@warren.senate.gov has the opportunity to do the most hilarious thing...

Every single day a MAGA tries to take the title of being the dumbest….today’s winner👇
