Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it. He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted. Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

We found the US is on track to have the fewest foreign food safety inspections since 2011, excluding pandemic years. In recent years, the FDA has typically been able to conduct ~110 inspections each month, but in March, the number of inspections dropped almost in half. 🔗: https://propub.li/4qTLkmN

This is some real disgusting shit

"'They’re spending more money than I would even tax them,' [Mamdani] said in an interview with MSNBC last week." This is the message. Make it clear that these billionaires aren't just worried about losing money. They're worried about losing the ability to exchange their money for power.

I hope the centrists learned a hard lesson last night. No more reaching across the aisle to people who have been spitting in our faces for decades. Run young people, run socialists, run on actionable ideas that seek to make our lives better.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

Maybe dumping poop on voters from an airplane is not a surefire electoral strategy

Oh my god?????

Let *this* be the future of the Democratic Party.

oh shit i had totally forgotten what it felt like for something good to happen

YESSSSSSSS

Wow

Yesssssssss!!!

REMINDER: A socialist act by a New Yorker was a major reason why polio was eliminated in the US.

This is still a democracy. I'll be damned if we're gonna just give these pathetic fascists power they don't have.

the hubris of virginia republicans thinking they had a shot in a state brimming with current and former fed workers whose lives have been made miserable by the leader of the GOP

dick cheney dies. spanberger wins. huge day for virginians who aren’t sociopaths.

VIRGINIA IS FOR LOVERS (of democracy, baby!)

NEW: Abigail Spanberger has been elected Governor of Virginia! YES!

billionaires buy twitter or WaPo as a little treat, but yes tell me about Gen Z's apocalyptic pastry habit

my god, what a paragraph (from tonight's @hcrichardson.bsky.social)

They literally ruin everything they touch

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Time to resurrect one of my favorite things Over Here: let me know about a book you either have out now or one that's up for folks to preorder, and I'll repost to boost it! 📚💜

Trump claims ICE agents are in constant danger. The data tells another story. Records show that none of ICE’s agents have ever been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s more than two-decade history. Instead, the leading cause of death by far among ICE officers is COVID-19.

I‘m sorry you are going hungry we had to give a bailout to that creepy Argentinian libertarian guy who tried to make crypto the national currency and immediately crashed the entire economy

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families? Now you know.

So much for being pro military. I guess the "Warrior Ethos" doesn't include getting a paycheck for serving your country. #GOPShutdown

you have never met a parent who will go to the mat for their kid faster than parents who have already had to fight the system to get their kid the support they're entitled to

"where's the left media?" "where's fact-checked reporting?" lately @teenvogue.com has run profiles: of Assata Shakur's revolutionary history; a 23-year-old Palestinian journalist; what's happening in Chicago's ICE protests; and organizing supporting LGBTQ+ youth 📍 www.teenvogue.com/news-politics

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

The Trump regime's war on Christianity continues, as regime troops attacks Americans across the United States and rounds up majority Christian immigrants, they've also targeted religious leaders. Here the Trump regime ICE forces shot a pastor in the head in the latest attack on civilians.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

"Look, the President clearly has some kind of dementia" should be how Democrats begin every single comment to reporters these days.

Can’t decide what to buy on Prime Day? Try: absolutely nothing, and then go support indie bookstores instead 📚

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

Seeing the hate and outrage over Bad Bunny being named the super bowl halftime act, shows that it was never about America first, but its about racism and if you don't look like "us" you don't belong. Puerto Ricans are American citizens. So they're either dumb or racist. I'll take BOTH for 200 Alex.

In a month, we can add another Blue State to defy Trump’s regime — right in his own backyard. Help us make some calls to flip Virginia’s Governor, Lt. Governor, and Attorney General from red to blue, and expand Democrats’ majority in the House of Delegates.

Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

The federal government is shut down because Republicans insist on ripping away our healthcare and handing Trump another blank check for his illegal power grab. Our job is to hold the GOP accountable and encourage Democrats to keep protecting our healthcare: indivisible.org/campaign/sto...

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Whatever they do to immigrants, they will do to us because, Trump's right, it is "no different" to deny human rights to US citizen versus a noncitizen

Exhibit A at The Hague just dropped
