Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿

Take heart — people are in the streets. Chicago marched through the Loop demanding accountability. You can’t bully the world into peace. You can’t terrorize people in the name of humanity. #ImpeachAndRemoveNow

Congress is completely useless at this point.

Like when a mob soldier gets whacked, the boss’s wife gets his stuff. Also wasn’t this the plane that people were calling Air Fuckfest?

Good morning, friends!

just to be clear, everyone, when 8 pm EDT comes and goes, regardless of what does or does not happen, the president still threatened genocide and war crimes and we should still impeach, arrest, and try him

There's panic in the USA: journalist Tucker Carlson called on the American military to immediately deprive Trump of access to nuclear codes. ⏱️ Meanwhile, Israeli television has started counting down the time to Trump's deadline regarding Iran.

"Any federal official who does not respond to Tuesday’s threat in a manner befitting their own constitutional obligations in light of Trump’s past actions will bear a part of the responsibility for what follows." - @chrisgeidner.bsky.social on the need to invoke the Twenty-Fifth Amendment now

Called my Senators and Representative, urging them to cut their recess short, show up in DC, and prepare articles of impeachment against Trump for violating "18 US Code § 1091 prohibiting the crime of genocide," as so clearly explained by my @cipolicy.bsky.social colleague @dylanwilliams.bsky.social

Think the scales are already unbalanced in favor of the fossil fuel industry? Hold my oil can. GOP lawmakers — using bills drafted by groups connected to Leonard Leo — are passing laws to immunize oil & gas companies from being held accountable. @abrahm.bsky.social @propublica.org

After Trump wrote, in reference to Iran, “A whole civilization will die tonight,” the entirety of the House Democratic leadership issued this joint statement:

Mizzou’s Black Student Government Latest Casualty in Trump’s DEI Crackdown Officials stripped funding from the university’s historic Legion of Black Collegians and four other minority affinity groups, citing a DOJ memo restricting DEI. https://bit.ly/4vh2wEK

Just crazy that this is the background for possible Armageddon.

(202) 224-3121 is the capitol switchboard for connecting to any senate or house office; even if you've never called; even though the lot of them are useless. no abominable war crimes, no war, no.

I saw this today. Pysanka of Victory, 2026 Gold ruby glass 🇺🇦 Stanislav Kadochnikov (b. 1959) Pysanka is a traditional Ukrainian Easter egg.

An Easter message from the president which should really force the VP and the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment.

Good: Orban doing this shows he's genuinely worried he could lose, despite abusing state power to give his party unfair electoral advantages. Bad: This and other abuses of power might work. But still, a week from today is the highest chance in 15 years of ending Orban's rule.

Hey media-- Pam Bondi is not a victim -- she willingly carried out Trump's political agenda to prosecute his political enemies and undermine free and fair elections. Todd Blache is not shouldering a "burden" or "walking a tightrope." He is a willing accomplice. Language matters.

“‘All I’m going to say is that I stand by my decision,’ she said… “Much of the audience at the board meeting broke into cheers and applause after her statement. Chants of ‘shame’ were heard as board members voted to fire her...” www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/...

Amid hullaballoo about Pam Bondi's firing bc she won't do enough crime, pardoned accused Jan6 criminal Jared Wise has decided DOJ won't let him do enough.

Raskin: "The president might be taking from all of this the idea that he needs a more skilled fighter on his behalf, but in fact he should take it as a sign that the country has had enough of all of the obstructionism and cover up."

Two brilliant civil rights lawyers - one Asian American; one Black American. Both women. @aclu.org’s Cecellia Wang & @legaldefensefund.bsky.social’s @janainelson.bsky.social. They argued two of the most consequential cases in SCOTUS this year. This embrace is one of my favorite moments of the day.

Sakura in Kyiv has started to bloom. I captured it today. News headlines don’t notice the beauty. I do.

may this define her for the rest of her life. she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired. girl, bye.

Protesters gathered in Trafalgar Square as it filled with voices condemning ICE terror From London, a clear message rang out state violence will not be ignored. When abuse goes unchecked, the world responds. Solidarity doesn't stop at borders.🇬🇧

“Board members at religiously affiliated institutions are heavily weighted to the financial sector, which sees unions as a nuisance. But the moral principles of the church have a clear message about workplace justice. These colleges need to be asked how they reconcile their actions w/ their values.”

First mistake was challenging a cancer survivor. Lol he a dummy

remarkable how every investor in this FT piece basically says: a state that heavily controls capital, with a central bank subordinated to government priorities, is a safer heaven in the new geopolitical reality of petrowars www.ft.com/content/7221...

She spoke out about Gaza. Now she can't use a credit card. The UN investigator for Palestinian territories is facing U.S. sanctions and accused of antisemitism by the State Department.

Debt is the game. Helps explain the pressure to start “self-supporting” degree programs + embrace of Extension at UCLA. The tuition revenue goes into pot that adds to the overall ability of UC to borrow. Core academics will be constrained bc we can’t borrow against their revenue (tuition).

your grandparents voting for reagan

When I remind people that this was under Biden, not Trump, and they instantly stop giving a shit? I want to pull out all of my hair and set it on fire :)))))

I went to Queen Mary UCU to see if they had info about the new redundancy plan announced for Goldsmiths (5th or 6th in the past decade), and found the kind of list you find now for UK universities. The sector management is just ridiculous. @UKLabour is letting slow collapse happen.

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis. My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives? So I picked up my camera 👇

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

Another day, another violation of academic freedom in Texas. This time a university is firing a philosophy professor owing to complaints about an off-campus talk he gave on the Israeli-Palestine conflict...

Trump has also used “ballot harvesting” — having someone pick up and return your mail ballot. And he’s guilty of Florida registration fraud by signing a form under penalty of perjury that the White House is a Florida address
