We just wanted to keep you all updated estimates are now approaching 4 million. Incredible job pulling this off on a holiday weekend! It was tough to get accurate counts today because small towns showed up in force. Some states had record-breaking turnout we didn’t expect this includes

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

President Trump on Thursday said he was allowing commercial fishing in one of the world’s largest ocean reserves, introducing industrial operations for the first time in more than a decade to a vast area of the Pacific populated by endangered sea turtles and whales. Read more: nyti.ms/3Rpkm68

Can’t wait to hear the “free speech” mob stand up for CBS and 60 minutes

Good. The First Amendment ensures freedom of the press for all news organizations, not just the president's preferred outlets.

Yesterday, we sent a historically big message to Trump, Musk, and the GOP — and we also sent a signal to all those who agree with us but have spent the last few months feeling shaken, hopeless, and afraid. #handsoff

Kokomo, Indiana, pop. 55k, deep red city

The Trump administration is intentionally attacking any entity that disagrees with Trump's policies. We and hundreds of civil rights organizations have joined to write an open letter that invites people to take a pledge to defend our rights and freedoms! civilrights.org/2025/03/26/o...

Exclusive: Several powerful Iranian-backed militia groups in Iraq are prepared to disarm for the first time to avert the threat of an escalating conflict with the US Trump administration reut.rs/3EcC8X8

Tune in tomorrow at 10 a.m. EDT for a live update on flooding across the state. Watch live via Facebook.com/GovAndyBeshear or subscribe at YouTube.com/GovAndyBeshear. Stay safe, Kentucky.

The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.

For some reason I can’t quite put my finger on, I think if Obama had crashed the economy on purpose in seven weeks they would have taken him out back

You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

This is #louisville April 5, 2025 for the peaceful #handsoff rally that also turned into a march down Main St. and back. There were so many people! I think 1,000+. The rain and flooding didn’t seem to be a deterrent. #kentucky

Oh wow: Portland Oregon is NOT KIDDING #handsoff

Flooding has reached record levels in many communities, and a lot of our neighbors have been affected. The state, emergency responders, local officials and others are working quickly to help support those in need.

Cory Booker

Brought my girls to the Capitol to cheer on @booker.senate.gov making Americans’ voices heard on the Senate floor! Proud to serve our country with Senator Booker, and to share this moment in history with my kids.

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Increasing concerns about the feasibility of holding the 2026 FIFA World Cup between the US, Canada and Mexico have emerged, following Trump's tariffs against both these countries.

Are we great again yet?
