"In a town with just over 1,000 residents, hundreds of people packed Belmont's Community Building Saturday for a town hall hosted by Democratic Rep. Mark Pocan. The building was filled to capacity with people even waiting outside and peeking through the windows..." www.wkow.com/news/politic...

BREAKING: HUNDREDS of New Yorkers have swarmed and shut down the Tesla dealer in Manhattan. Six have been arrested after occupying the showroom. Protests are erupting across America to reject Musk's billionaire regime. This is how we beat fascism. Mass direct action. #TeslaTakedown

Happy Carurday, lovely people. May you roar today!

Emails sent out late last night—The Department of Health and Human Services is offering employees up to $25,000 to voluntarily leave the agency.

This is some excellent good trouble

RFK Jr’s top spokesman at HHS resigns after just 2 weeks after reporting clashing with him about his response to the measles epidemic in Texas. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

Ending the night with this. *Get your hankies* A D-Day veteran called a gracious and humbled Zelenskyy a hero.

"An Israeli official...said the decision to suspend aid was made in coordination with the Trump administration. ...Hundreds of aid trucks have entered Gaza daily since the ceasefire began on Jan 19, and it was unclear what the immediate impact of the aid cutoff would be." apnews.com/article/isra...

Vermont understood the assignment. Take notes, America.

They have no answer for what the oligarchs are doing to America.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

what freefall feels like

The problem with trying to ride a tiger, is you eventually come to realize there is no safe way to get off the tiger

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.

When King Charles hosts his swanky royal ball for Trump he should seat him next to Prince Andrew, they can reminisce about the good old days on Epstein’s Island. Last time Trump visited London as POTUS he had brekkie with Prince Andrew & lied about it later. 2 pervs in a pod.

@joyannreid.bsky.social missing you Joy, especially on a day like today when Trump and Vance are flinging shit all over the Oval Office. 💔

Shop local everyday. Buy less and shop local. Buy less, you don’t need that.

Tax billionaires

Just cut federal cancer research & food for starving children.

btw, i will tell you this - i have been talking to people all day, and the media is missing, whether intentionally or not, how absolutely, volcanically angry the people who have been fired are, not because they lost their jobs, but because their jobs matter, *to us*

Time to stop pretending what's happening isn't real.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Over 120,000 Japanese Americans forced into imprisonment in internment camps simply because they were of Japanese heritage.

Dark Pence is back.

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.
