We haven’t forgotten.

The government plans to call Mark Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg to the witness stand. The trial is expected to run nearly two months in a federal courtroom in Washington.

I’m grateful the Shapiro family is safe. It’s despicable for this to happen as the Jewish community is celebrating Passover. Political violence has no place in our country.

As Passover begins, I am reposting my open letter to Elon Musk. I wrote it in response to his attacks on me and his suggestion that I suffer from “generational trauma.” It has been the most viral piece I have ever written and I continue to be moved by the positive feedback. Thanks and Happy Pesach!

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Raskin: They want to go back to the idea that the law doesn’t apply to them in anyway, they’re not bound by the law, and they can use the law to crush other people

Reuters: LAW FIRM SUSMAN GODFREY SUES U.S. GOVERNMENT FOLLOWING TRUMP EXECUTIVE ORDER AGAINST IT - COURT DOCKET

If I were Judge Xinis, I would order the government to produce, in her courtroom, officials who were in a position to answer her questions and to do so under oath. Letting DOJ continue to prevaricate and deflect responsibility in written submissions seems ... insufficient at this point.

Law grads, save your soul. Don't apply to these firms. Make them toxic. There are other ways to make money and do good work. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/b...

Here is an up to date list of Big Law collaborators along with how much in free legal services they have pledged to Trump's causes. Paul Weiss 40M Cadwalader 100M Milbank 100M Skadden Arps 100M Willkie Farr 100M A&O Shearman 125M Kirkland & Ellis 125M Latham & Watkins 125M Simpson Thacher 125M

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

A Delaware judge has ruled that right-wing cable channel Newsmax made defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems when it lied about the 2020 election results. Judge Eric Davis says the case will now proceed to a trial by jury.

SCOTUS: Facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia JUDGE XINIS: Tell me what you're doing to return him DOJ: We need a week XINIS: You have 3 hours DOJ: No There's supposed to be a hearing in 10 minutes.

BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨 A judge in Delaware ruled this week that cable news channel Newsmax aired false and defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems as part of its coverage of the 2020 election. thehill.com/homenews/med...

Judge Paula Xinis is ordering the Trump admin to begin providing "daily updates" on whether it is doing anything to comply with her order to return Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia — illegally deported to El Salvador last month — back to the United States.

A friend who understands these matters said last night that we’ll be lucky to get out of this with a normal recession, as opposed to a real international economic crisis. As Kyle Rodda said, 'This goes beyond pricing in a growth slowdown and trade uncertainty.'” www.thebulwark.com/p/not-seriou...

If we want culture to thrive, not just survive, it’s on all of us now.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

My latest: MTG Caught “Buying The Dip” as AOC @aoc.bsky.social Renews Call to Ban Members’ Trades

“Congress has never passed a voter-suppression law like this before,” @seanmorales-doyle.bsky.social , director of the @brennancenter.bsky.social voting-rights program, told Democracy Docket.

The president of the United States and his cronies LAUGHING over the million$ they made off the backs of financially devastated hard working Americans due to market manipulation. Hearings, NOW. 😡 @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a major voter suppression measure that, if it became law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine U.S. democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Don’t let go of the evidence of insider trading, Dems. Push and push and push. Get real answers or implicate the whole GOP by their refusal to provide them.

John Sullivan was a top FBI official who resigned after Trump and Elon Musk made their agenda clear. Those traitors always put themselves first — ahead of the American people. We need more people like Sullivan to stand up and speak out against Trump's authoritarianism!

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

The tariff debacle has no more to do with wanting to return manufacturing to the US than his attacks on universities have to do with sincere concerns about antisemitism. These are mere pretexts to hide darker agendas of greed and grievance, power plays and corruption.

BREAKING: The House will vote on the SAVE Act today. If this bill becomes law, millions of American citizens could be blocked from voting. 1/

A Delaware judge finds the right-wing network aired false and defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems' role in the 2020 presidential election. A jury trial is slated for late April.

BREAKING — DOGE will descend upon Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) buildings tomorrow, an agency source tells me. FDIC is responsible for insuring all commercial/personal US bank accounts for up to $250k and regulating banks. Scary in light of Trump’s manipulation of markets this week.

I'm sorry. I don't know this guy, but WTF. People are actually writing about the president's targeting of law firms across the country in a brazenly unconstitutional and retaliatory way like he's a guy winning a bunch of bets at the races?

What happened today reeks of insider trading. Trump’s tweet wasn’t random—it was a signal. Someone cashed in, and the public deserves to know who and how much. Follow. The. Money. “This entire White House is one giant grift.” —Sen. @chrismurphyct.bsky.social shining a spotlight on it! 🔥

"We may lose one of the most vital services that actually kept us safe in 2024 and kept our elections moving," Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes said about cuts to a federal cybersecurity agency that helps safeguard elections.

We found the voter fraud!!!!!

House MAGA GOP just rammed through a bill to neuter federal judges — apparently the Constitution is too “woke” now. 📌 Vote tally: 219–213. Too bad they’ll need Democratic support to get it through the Senate. Spoiler: they won’t. #StopAuthoritarianism! apnews.com/article/gop-...

Effective immediately, the government says it will begin screening immigrant social media for activity that officials think indicates support for antisemitism.

Joe Kent appears to have had the word "PANZER" tattooed on his arm. Why? Could it be a reference to the tank used by the Nazi army? Something else? In response to a request for comment, a NCTC spox said to watch his confirmation hearing today. I did. It was not addressed.

What the hell has Donald Trump been up to? Yet more corruption, no doubt. Senator Adam Schiff is demanding a congressional investigation into the distinct possibility that Trump engaged in insider trading or market manipulation when he abruptly paused his sweeping tariffs — a move that sent…

JUST IN: Chief Justice John Roberts has issued an order that temporarily blocks lower court rulings that reinstated Gwynne Wilcox, a member of the National Labor Relations Board, and Cathy Harris, a member of the Merit Systems Protection Board. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

Trump straight up did an illegal pump and dump. He even posted about it. What will happen? Nothing. Rich get richer. Rinse repeat. newrepublic.com/post/193823/...

Legal expert @stevevladeck.bsky.social joins Jen Rubin to unpack the SCOTUS Alien Enemies Act ruling and what happens now to the people who have been deported without due process. Watch the full interview now:

Democratic House Rep. Don Beyer to Jamieson Greer: "You have a most awful job trying to convince us and the people we represent that the president's trade policies are wise and measured, when the truth is they are stupid and bad." Nailed it! 🔥

This latest atrocity is the fault of so many, but especially the fault of those Big Law law firms who have bent the knee and capitulated to a convicted felon.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.
