Sen. Cory Booker has the floor.

🔥American Girl is BACK🔥 MAGA wants us silent. Erased. Controlled. We won’t let them. Not now. Not ever. All month, we’re breaking down the powerful imagery in our anthem—our stories MUST be told. Join us. Rise up. Fight back. #InternationalWomensDay

Facebook has shadow-banned Heather Cox Richardson. Some of my posts are being blocked on the main feed. For instance I have posted American Girl by The Seneca Project several times, and it never appears on the main feed, it is on my profile. Facebook is going full dark side.

Welfare for the wealthy. Higher taxes for the working poor. #WomenForJustice

Honestly, if she begins to put country before ideology and does so consistently, I will think more highly of her. They can call her whatever they want, but she has a lifetime appointment, and if they can get rid of her, they can get rid of the others. My bet is they after for the women first.

Elon Musk has called for Amtrak and the Postal Service to be privatized. Be warned: this is a call to gut essential public services to pad corporate profits. Here are my 5 rules of thumb for when public services should NOT be privatized.

pay the president and the government drops your case?

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

🚨BREAKING: Ninth Circuit AFFIRMS lower court decision striking down Arizona voter suppression law H.B. 2492 which imposed unconstitutional and burdensome proof of citizenship requirements. A big victory for our clients and the voters of Arizona. A stinging defeat for the RNC.

BREAKING: House Republicans just passed their budget resolution 217-215 that would virtually guarantee deep cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, all to fund a major tax break for the ultrawealthy... and still add trillions to the national debt.

Murphy: "The destruction of our democracy is part of this story ... this is super unpopular, what they are doing. Nobody wants their healthcare to disappear ... so how do you get away with it? You try to destroy our democracy. You try to crush dissent. You threaten members of Congress with arrest."

Ask me how it feels to be a woman in America right now.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

It used to be "the left is making up all the stories of hate crimes or brutality." Now it's "don't let your heart be moved by the bad things we're doing."

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

Oh cool Trump just re-invented DARE.

As the oligarchy is conspicuously exposed, Americans will see as clearly as we did at the end of the first Gilded Age that we have no option but to take back power. Only then can we continue the essential work of America.

Whole Foods, which is owned by notorious union-buster Amazon, is arguing that Trump's dismantling of the NLRB means the company doesn't have to recognize a newly unionized store in Philadelphia. Looks like Jeff Bezos' investment in Trump is paying off.

📣 Let's not mince words here. This is a systematic assault on human dignity and the right to healthcare. This is a deliberate obstruction of medical care. This. is. unacceptable. @msf.ca's new report should give us all goosebumps & compel us to speak out. #Gaza #MedSky #BSky #NotATarget ⬇️

THIS PLANE CRASH IS 100% TRUMP'S FAULT AND HERE IS WHY.

We used to all hold our breath hoping a shooter wasn’t a Muslim or a trans person. Now we gotta worry if the air traffic controller was Black?! Do you see how far they have moved the window?

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻
