Chuck Schumer right now:

We now have nonsense wars on pretty much everything, in particular, notions of wokeness, DEIA, the list goes on and on, but perhaps the most damaging new war-front would be the shots fired against the very notion of empathy. It is being framed as a trait to be eradicated.

Schumer’s about to start his book tour. Bookstores let you come in with coffee, right? A big iced coffee, with lots of flavored syrup to make it sticky? In to go cups so you can hold a book like you’re gonna get it signed in one hand and a cup of iced coffee to pour on someone’s head in the other?

Maine folks! It is VITAL that you call or visit Senator Angus S. King, Jr.'s office today to demand that he vote no on cloture today. Call or show up at any of his offices: www.king.senate.gov/contact/offi...

Sorry, but I have to say it. It's futile at this point to pretend any sane person has any shared interest with the MAGA crowd. It's hard, because they are our friends and family, but ...

In case you need a break from the awfulness, here's an embroidered jellyfish I finished last night--my latest project to avoid doomscrolling before bed.

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats. An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

Chuck Schumer is going out to meet swing voters where they live: in the upscale book stores of America's wealthy suburbs.

At this point it's pretty clear appeasement is not an option (it never was). MAGA wants to burn it down, now is the time to fight, not capitulate. This is OUR country, get angry and ACT!

Aid agencies distributing U.S. food aid in Ethiopia's war-affected Tigray region say they have had to stop feeding millions of people because of the Trump administration's restrictions on foreign aid.

The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires. This is a bill I cannot support.

First post ever, be kind. To everyone who hates what is going on, I feel for you. I am an American and I am ashamed of my government. This was once a country people aspired to emulate, but we are now ruled by cartoonishly inept billionaires. Real people are hurting, I apologize.

Paywalls are a giant part of this problem. As I've said many times, i have no solution. Journalists need to eat, and we're being decimated year over year. But, still.

A very special message to our Canadian brothers and sisters. As you move forward with this trade war and soon choose between Carney and Poilievre, look to us as a cautionary tale. Also, we're sorry. #canada #tariffs

This is really important data. Going moderate tanks Dem turnout. (But we knew that already.)

By the end of this week, I will be the mother of a teenager. I do not know how time has moved this fast. I am so grateful for this kid (and the other one), and so damn lucky. Single momming is not for the faint of heart AND I wouldn’t change the journey for anything.

I can't imagine the party Putin is having in Moscow right now. He doesn't have to lift a finger -- he invades a country, gets pushed back, and then sidles up to an American President short-sighted enough to do this bidding for him, right from our Oval Office.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Was there ever a bigger Trumpian ass-kisser than Marco Rubio? Possibly only J.D. Vance, who is on record saying he might have to "hold his nose and vote for Hlilary."
