Casar: "I've knocked on 1000s of doors and not a single time has someone said, 'Thank God you're here. I want to ask about trans people fencing'..what the hell are we doing? We are here bc MTG thinks if she picks on trans folks, she can avoid having a discussion about allegations of insider trading"

Today we remember lives that have been taken and people who’ve gone missing. We remember them and pray for those still here who are grieving. We’ll never stop fighting until the safety of our Native relatives is guaranteed. We will not be erased.

Coloradan Trisha Calvarese is working to unseat Lauren Boebert. A longtime fierce progressive and dear friend of mine is working on this campaign, and I'm excited to see someone with a real chance to consign Boebert to the cesspit of political history.

NEW: Tulsi Gabbard, now the US director of national intelligence, used the same easily cracked password for different online accounts including a personal Gmail account and Dropbox over a period of years, leaked records reviewed by WIRED reveal.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

The VA has abruptly ended the only low-interest, affordable loan modification option for thousands of vets who are behind on their mortgages. If you're a vet at risk of foreclosure, we want to hear your story.

And you thought the left was censorious. How about actual censoring?

The $400 million in AmeriCorps cuts ordered by Musk just hit Omaha’s Partnership 4 Kids right as more than 300 students supported by its AmeriCorps volunteers prepare to take their next steps into college or the workforce.

The conman who was forced to shut down his fake "university" because its operation was consumer fraud, is trying to undermine America's oldest, most prestigious, legitimate university through an abuse of presidential power.

The right to vote is the foundation of our democracy. As Congressman John Lewis said, it’s “the most powerful nonviolent tool we have to create a more perfect union.” I spoke on the Senate floor about the need to protect the right to vote and end attacks on our democracy.

someone tell alex thompson that he has a great chance to cover a president in mental decline if he wants to take it

Dear god let this man cook.

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

There it is, in a nutshell.

Has there ever been a more self-assuredly dumb, ignorant, or dangerous senior US health official than RFK Jr? I don't think so. The man is world-historically stupid––and it's going to cost thousands upon thousands of lives.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation "It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

Warrantless home searches bring out my Gadsden flag side and I'll bet I'm not alone in that.

This is how terrified they are of people in government telling the truth to the American people about what they are doing behind the scenes. Cockroaches hate sunlight.

Katie Phang: And now that my time here at MSNBC comes to a close, I am taking that fight back to a familiar place… I hope you'll follow along with me as I continue to meet you where you are at places like Substack and YouTube with fellow truth tellers like MeidasTouch…

Could you ever have imagined you would see a headline like this in your lifetime

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

A headline from Hell. @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

If you needed any further proof that the arrest of Judge Dugan was a propaganda opportunity and a fear tactic, here you go. Nothing about this is normal—it’s authoritarianism!

Macron shook one hand.

I read it…

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

House Rep. Gerry Connolly is pushing CDC leadership to explain why the personnel who handle FOIA requests lost their jobs, noting that that the public has a right to access federal records.

RFK Jr. wants to create a national registry of people with autism The Admin wants to increase baby supply with a motherhood medal. Trump wants to deport US citizens to a third world gulag. They formed an Anti-Christian Bias Task Force to prosecute people for speech. Does this sound familiar?

What folks love about @repjasmine.bsky.social is simple—she keeps it real. No sugarcoating, no political gymnastics. She says what the rest of us are thinking but don’t have the mic to say out loud. She’s right—this is a “nightmare”. And we need more voices like hers, calling it out—no apologies!
