Great day to run for your local seats.

In the hour of darkness and peril and fear, let’s all channel a little Paul Revere. @hcrichardson.bsky.social #paulrevere #boston250

Popok: This is not just about Abrego Garcia—and they’re right. It’s not about whether he is or isn’t MS-13. This is about the rule of law and our co-equal branches of government. This is about greater principles.

BOYCOTT EL SALVADOR COFFEE

El Salvador is building concentration camps for Americans. We are living this nightmare in real time.

"The 2024 election wasn’t a restaurant where you could order cheaper eggs but politely ask for the server to hold the fascism. You’re still getting the fascism, and your eggs aren’t just overpriced now, they’re broken and rotten." -- @playtyperguy.com

“Donald Trump has just given us a pitch-perfect demonstration of why legislatures are necessary, why checks and balances are useful, and why most one-man dictatorships become poor and corrupt,” @anneapplebaum.bsky.social writes: https://theatln.tc/9yE9mTHf

A much-needed moment of calm 🐺

DOGE Oversight Subcommittee held a hearing on reducing federal property. All they said was “fire sale” this, “fire sale” that. Meanwhile, they’re lighting all of this s**t on fire — while their incompetent leader wastes millions of taxpayer dollars golfing, all while steering us towards a recession.

Watched the horrifying 60 Minutes segment on Andry & the others we have disappeared to CECOT. It’s so enraging and saddening at the same time folks must speak up. youtu.be/g8z2tbUY1Hk?...

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom. Few Americans know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country. (Published 2022)

Funny how that worked out. interc.pt/43EvQtQ

Remember, Elon’s plan is to break government and replace every department with private equity.

'Unlawful destruction of federal records': Hegseth, Rubio and others broke multiple laws by using 'disappearing' messaging app to discuss military strikes, watchdog says Source: Law & Crime share.newsbreak.com/ca4umnb7

DOGE isn't just cutting vital government services. Each federal job loss could also result in the loss of at least one additional worker in the private sector. Working people having less money in their pockets to spend stifles local economies. What’s “efficient” about that?

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Glad to have you on board, @aclu-nj.org 💪

If Pete Hegseth had even a tiny bit of honor and sense of responsibility, then he would hand in his resignation this morning.

Elon Musk called Social Security a “Ponzi scheme.” President Trump spewed lies about it at the Joint Address. Now, they are making it harder for Americans to get the help they need. This Administration is undermining Social Security, but we are fighting back. www.startribune.com/social-secur...

INVESTIGATION: Amid rising egg prices & avian flu, GOP officials are helping egg monopolies gut ag laws & bankrupt independent producers — which would give egg monopolies more power to increase your grocery bills, while exacerbating the pandemic threat.

This administration is incompetent and corrupt with no plan except stealing from vets, children and families to feed the billionaires

You cannot make this shit up. Sharing this jaw-dropping story with a gift link -- give it a read.

WASHINGTON (AP) — As congressional lawmakers scramble to respond to President Donald Trump’s slashing of the federal government, one group is already taking a front and center role: military veterans.

I knew it!
