Thou shalt demand retailers tell you how much prices have gone up because of tariffs.

Walz: You have a situation where the Secretary of Health basically said it and was speaking with the language of eugenics, that some people just don't matter. People like Deanna's son or my son or those of you listening tonight. So look, this is a fight we must win.

This from @oliverdarcy.bsky.social is very worrying and also important

100 DAYS...of lying, grifting, lawbreaking, division, incompetence, ignorance, illegal deportations, self-aggrandizement, vulgarity, self-pity, cruelty, ignoring the Supreme Court & due process while attacking: the Media, Universities, Law Firms, the Courts & Journalists. 1362 Days to go...

“History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes” – Mark Twain

Slashing NIH funding isn’t about cutting government waste — it’s about slowing down the search for lifesaving treatments and cures for millions battling rare diseases. I explain why this matters in my latest op-ed: www.news-gazette.com/opinion/gues...

He is just completely disconnected from the reality of how his policies impact average Americans, and he is surrounded my sycophants 24/7 who tell him that he’s the greatest, everything is perfect, and everyone loves him. He lives in a fantasy world.

Now we have the answer. The original story was legit then Bezos backed down.

It really takes a lot for me to say this, but the Graham tweet is genuinely a pretty offensive thing to say.

If we're gonna trust the adult Midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy to lead Marines and Sailors in harm's way, we can trust them to read books. It's indefensible to ban books from the library there—my alma mater—especially when you're hiding writings by Maya Angelou, but not Adolf Hitler.

Walz: I do want to give a huge shout out to our Canadian neighbors, they know that this is wrong. They stood up to it

Donald Trump’s first 100 days have been a masterclass of cruelty, callousness, chaos, & corruption. He has attacked everyone & everything, except the rising cost of living. YI'll continue to stand in the gap & fight for the dignity, safety, & economic wellbeing of everyone.

the jobs of the future, where you will be a hereditary serf producing goods for your betters

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.

Pritzker: And we have a president who claims to love America but hates our military so much that can’t be bothered to delay his golf game to greet the bodies of four fallen U.S. soldiers.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett—is the Vice Ranking Member of the Oversight Committee and she is next in line, y’all. 🔥 Let’s rally behind her because she’s the fierce fighter we need. @repjasmine.bsky.social

Measles cases spread to three more states. Louisiana, Virginia and Missouri each confirmed their first cases over the weekend, with at least 27 states now reporting the disease. #BlueSky #MedSky www.independent.co.uk/news/health/... www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...

At the WH Easter egg hunt, Hegseth this morning pathetically blames the media for what his own appointees disclosed about his latest scandals.

An American citizen from Albuquerque NM was detained by ICE in Tucson Arizona for 10 days for not having his immigration papers. Which, as an American citizen born in the United States, he would never be carrying. news.azpm.org/p/news-artic...

4/20/25 America has been run by FELONS for nearly 3 months. They are implementing a COUP. Millions of citizens are protesting in all 50 states.

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Trump Conceals Easter Golf Outing from Press Pool White House gave no destination as motorcade departed; Trump remained out of view at golf club meidasnews.com/news/trump-c...

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

imagine being a four star general fired after Pete Hegseth questioned your job competence and opening up literally any national newspaper

Hard to argue with that

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

Easter is meant to be a day we reflect on suffering, injustice, and hope. Kilmar Ábrego Garcia has been illegally locked up and separated from his family for 39 days. Our own government is responsible. It is long past time we bring him home. 🙏🏽🇺🇸❤️‍🩹

Pope Francis was a decent man in indecent times. His voice, at this delicate moment, seems hard to replace. Today's Morning Shots from @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social, @eggerdc.bsky.social, and @cheetah.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/a-pope-who...

“Trump is the biggest liar in the history of American politics… while many of them were mediocrities and some operated according to a rather elastic ethical scale, none of them was an outright sociopath. But Donald Trump is.”

For anyone keeping count

But sure, meritocracy. Got it.

“You can’t say people are our most important product and then treat them like shit.” - Jim Sinegal, co-founder of Costco

Authoritarianism doesn’t sleep. It works in headlines, in laws, in silence. It feeds on fear. It dresses up as patriotism. But we know the truth: Freedom doesn’t come from the top down. It rises from the people. And we are rising. #ProtectDemocracy #AwakenThePeople

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Every time the Justice Department tries to claim the military isn’t actually banning transgender people, Pete Hegseth tweets that it is. This is likely to come up at oral arguments at the DC Circuit Court of appeals — conveniently scheduled for tomorrow.

If someone is arguing against due process, just ask them if they believe someone is innocent until proven guilty. It's the same thing.
