Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Good info to know You know the assignment #Boycott #Celebrities

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

Well here’s a thought - if those elected can’t see what’s happening…

www.cnn.com/2025/04/05/p... Elon’s DOGE is expected to come for Homeland Security next — with cuts to critical agencies like the Secret Service and FEMA. Our national security is NOT a game, and Elon sure as hell shouldn’t be the one playing it.

Trump Family’s Cash Registers Ring as Financial Meltdown Plays Out The party was on at a Saudi-backed LIV Golf tournament at the president’s Doral resort in Florida and a fund-raiser at Mar-a-Lago, even as markets tumbled. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/u...

The world needs to say NO to Starlink, Tesla, SpaceX, Xtwitter, Google, Meta, Amazon, PayPal, and anything else Peter Thiel. Power to the people.

At least Nero could play an instrument

It was nice to find someone who sees what I see and is academic enough to articulate it a way that my non economist educated brain can’t.

Democratic U.S. Senator Cory Booker broke the record for the Senate's longest continuous speech, holding the floor for over 25 hours. #CoryBooker #speech #Senator #Senate #Democrat #Politics #Reuters #news

"Don't become like him. Be an American that says I look to the future. Yes, things are scary right now. But we can overcome." MORE. OF. THIS. 👏👏👏👏👏 #CoryBooker

We support Senator Cory Booker in his effort to stop “business as usual” in the Senate during this time of crisis. Thank you, Senator 🙌. #CoryBooker #RESIST #SenatorBooket #StandUp #SpeakOut #RESIST #DoSomething #Obstruct #Disrupt #IDA-CO #Indivisible #Resistor

After @booker.senate.gov historic 25-hour marathon speech on the Senate floor, I had to bring this one out of the archives. #corybooker #speech #senate

@booker.senate.gov made history yesterday. He made genuinely “good trouble.” During his brilliant record-breaking filibuster, he asked “Where does the Constitution live, on paper or in our hearts?” All of us are called in our own way to answer that question by our actions, not just our words.

Truth! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

World’s worst parent and it’s a high bar.

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.” WOW. Planes in air must turn around. A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

I did not anticipate that so many leaders across industries and professions would allow fear to silence them. Even worse than their silence in the face of Trump’s actions against our democracy is their silent complicity as they watch their peers be targeted, humiliated and punished.

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state www.wunc.org/news/2025-03...

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

We have each other. We are the Resistance now. All of us.

(🧵) On Twitter, Elongelicals are insisting this Musk sentiment is right and defending him passionately. What makes this so interesting isn't that it's more antisemitism from Musk—an antisemite—but that he's encouraging historical analogies between 2025 America and N*zi Germany. So let's play it out.

Yesterday, Norm won in court against Trump and his cronies. Today, he's calling Norm names at the DOJ. Tomorrow (and every day after that), we'll keep fighting.

If you are a woman of reproductive age, or just even care about women and young women, you need to be paying attention.

When the history of this time is written down, the cowardice will be remembered as much as the fascism

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

trump administration is preparing to break Laws of Armed Conflict! #TrumpCriminalRegime

CALL CHUCK SCHUMER: Tell him DON'T support the CR 📞 202.224.3121

🚨BREAKING: The Trump Administration must immediately offer reinstatement to thousands of probationary federal workers who were recently unlawfully fired, a federal judge ruled Thursday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: A U.S. district judge just ruled that thousands of fired probationary federal workers must be reinstated. A huge win for federal workers—and @normeisen.bsky.social was on the front lines. Hear his thoughts moments after leaving court now:

Can someone with a military background explain why this isn’t an act of war? The victim is a “US-flagged” vessel “at anchor in the North Sea and carrying huge amounts of jet fuel for the US military.” The deliberate attack’s aggressor is a Russian captain.

Let’s go #TimWaltz

Go ahead and stay silent. Let fear rule you. Watch injustice happen. Just don’t act like you did not know and accept that you are the latest in a long line of cowards who learned nothing from the past. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

“we have to be able to commit war crimes to win wars” is the type of thing a 16-year-old dumbass says and — well, yeah, hegseth is basically a 16-year-old dumbass

The Democratic Party filed a lawsuit to block an executive order that would give President Trump power over the Federal Election Commission.

i think shutting the government down is preferably to nullifying article i of the constitution
