Apathy kills democracy. If not us, who? If not now, when? Be creative. Resist. Never give up. Support The Democratic Party and those who break through the DOGE bs while we still have a democracy.

The uncertainty created by across-the-board tariffs is hurting Minnesota’s businesses, from breweries to farms. I was at Swing Barrel Brewing in Moorhead to hear about how unpredictable costs caused by tariffs would impact supply chains and operations. www.inforum.com/news/moorhea...

Previously, the arrests of pro-Palestinian voices on university campuses would’ve drawn instant attention from the DHS civil rights office’s First Amendment watchdogs, attorneys in the compliance branch said. That guardrail is gone. By @davidmcswane.bsky.social & @hannahallam.bsky.social

Nationwide organizing (like our work to help mobilize millions last weekend) takes a lot of resources, so our resistance grows bigger and better when you pitch in. Please consider a donation to build momentum and fuel our organizing during the congressional recess: secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

Donald Trump hit the golf course today after another disastrous week in the White House. He has now spent more than 25% of his second term golfing — the laziest president ever.

NEW: The Trump administration, via a senior State Department official, says Kilmar Abrego Garcia is alive in El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison. But they still won't say if they're doing anything to get him back. Details w/ @joshgerstein www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

STAND and DEMAND the immediate return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. BRING HIM HOME! Abrego Garcia is a SMART Local 100 first-year apprentice who was working full-time to support his young family — before he was brutally abducted and illegally deported to El Salvador. SMART General President…

"The proposal....says it would target 'criminal illegal aliens' and would attempt to avoid legal challenges by designating part of the prison — which has drawn accusations of violence and overcrowding from human rights groups — AS AN AMERICAN TERRITORY." www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Watch amazing speeches by AOC and Bernie beginning at 4:08 (hours) in this video. INSPIRING, INFORMATIVE, & TRUE.

“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

Make it make sense

How it started // How it’s going

I cannot overstate how despicable the Mahmoud Khalil case is The Government concedes he hasn’t broken any laws But they assert he can be deported for his past, current or even EXPECTED beliefs All based on the sole determination of Marco Rubio Who is apparently now the head of the Thought Police

Will just leave this clip here of Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings talking about what’s wrong with America from a 1991 interview and it’s still all very true today

This guy deserves our wholehearted respect and support. We need to join him in the fight for rule of law before it’s too late. Each of us must do our part to resist. Run for office, donate to food banks, donate to Democracy Docket, Democracy Forward, the ACLU. Start somewhere. The time is NOW. ACT

My law firm is currently litigating 49 voting and election cases in 21 states. States with the most cases: AZ, GA, NC, NV, FL, LA, PA. I expect new cases will be filed this week.

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

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

Sure. Tell Grandma to just head on over to X to sign up for her benefits.

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

The Trump admin has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying “anti-Christian bias” as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new EO on supporting employees of Christian faith working in the federal government. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...
