THIS is what I’m talking about. I hope this letter is followed by legal action. He’s not my favorite, but thanks to @governor.ca.gov for responding to our calls to act.

Groups of lawyers have gathered outside the #LosAngeles #DHS bldg and beyond but are being kept from clients—this is illegal. Worse, groups of lawyers outside are literally chanting basic rights in the hopes detainees will hear—but #ICE blares their horns/sirens in-time w/the chants to drown us out.

It’s bleak, folks. 🇺🇸

Last month, Senate Rs created a limited filibuster carveout to pass with a simple majority what Senate rules require a supermajority for. This month, they're planning to violate two separate provisions of the Byrd rule to pass with a simple majority what Senate rules require a supermajority for.

Phang: If you have to resort to deceit to get something done, that tells me what you’re doing is wrong. What’s happening is a dup-and-scoop: people are being duped into going to court, their cases get dismissed, and then they’re scooped up by ICE and deported under expedited removal.

Please do not fall for these lies. RFK Jr has cut funding to Long COVID research, disbanded Long COVID committees, and spread misinformation about COVID vaccines and treatments. He can not be trusted to meaningfully advance Long COVID treatments, and will only exploit vulnerable communities.

Sure doesn’t look like Newark Mayor Ras Baraka broke into the ICE detention center to me.

And this plane thing is also a good distraction from Congress trying to cut medical stuff. It’s not that it’s always a coincidence, it’s that there’s so much stupid stuff happening, it overlaps.

No one should die from measles. There’s no reason to except stubborn ignorance. We’re not safe until everyone is safe.

1) I 🖤 Philly. 2) The conditioning, the weathering, the “Black fatigue” we feel, living in a racist society, treated as 2nd-class citizens—it adds to our greatness; most Black college athletes, much less those who go professional, have often overcome infinitely more obstacles than their white peers.

I think it's important to stress that the Mayor was arrested AS HE WAS TRYING TO DO HIS WORK.

The Trump administration fired Librarian of Congress Dr. Carla D. Hayden as part of their sweeping book ban efforts. One of the titles removed? Freckleface Strawberry, a children’s book about self-acceptance. Seriously, who gets offended by that?

Reminder that wellness grifters like Trump’s new Surgeon General Casey Means spread misinformation about vaccines and health because it is extremely profitable for them to do so. (Chart by @epidemiologistkat.bsky.social)

RFK Jr. went on Fox News and lied through his teeth. He said they weren’t cutting critical research. Terminated grants so far have included studies on cancer, Alzheimer’s, HIV, and tuberculosis. Ohio researchers lost funding for kidney disease and TB projects. This guy doesn’t care about health.

I have an entire lap and foster kitten sits here.

“It’s a huge loss,” Samaras said. “It’s a loss for taxpayers, it’s a loss for communities, it’s a loss for the environment. Not producing the report saves us basically nothing and costs us maybe everything.” Always a good idea to heed @costasamaras.com's warnings and follow his lead...

Deaths from heart disease down 75%, that’s NIH. Deaths from stroke down 75%, that’s NIH. HIV/AIDS no longer a death sentence, that’s NIH. 99% of FDA approved drugs in the last decade, that’s NIH. Please show this video to anyone who doesn’t understand why the NIH is so important.

Congress is back from recess after the weekend. Will anyone file articles of impeachment for expelling a U.S. citizen who is 4 years old and also has cancer.

US measles total tops 600 cases, with almost 500 in Texas RFK Jr not helping

Anchorage Alaska a success! Red State here with m9re protesters than ever before!

Oh. So now they understand a country is its u see its own control?

Good thinking electing this guy, rural areas

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved. * very unconstitutional

Did Putin write this?

This guy is so deeply corrupt. newrepublic.com/post/192150/...

Day 40 of the Golden Age of America: Trump threw a tantrum at Zelenskyy for not being nicer to Putin (leadership!). Musk fired off another ‘justify your job or else’ email—national security officials, thrilled. Anti-DOGE protests hit Tesla stores—because even Musk’s fanboys are over it. #Krasnov

The wealthy commit fraud WAY MORE than the rest of us do. They also serve WAY LESS time in prison.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

A detail that for sure seems like it will be important at some point.
