Trump decided to make the midterms about the core questions of constitutional rights and civil liberties. The Democrats are finally noticing. ICYMI @lauren-egan.bsky.social: lnk.thebulwark.com/4aj0LhY

I am hard pressed to find a quote that resonates more than this in current times.

RFK Jr does not just reject vaccines. He rejects science and must step down | Bernie Sanders

We are horrified to learn of the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Political violence has no place in democracy. The foundation of democracy rests on the principle that differences can be debated vigorously, but peacefully, without intimidation or acts of violence.

Real stories from real Americans on the harm the Trump administration is doing them, like waiting since January for an Arlington funeral to be arranged for a loved one, but there is insufficient staff to make it happen. Watch, tell your story, share. ofthebrave.org

Socialism is not defined as our government administering programs we taxpayers fund.

I feel as though I am pretending to be something I am not. I am comfortable writing prose and producing visual art. I am not a poet. I honestly don't think I've written a poem since high school. Once this poem started to form in my mind, there was no letting it go. bit.ly/3SU38OP

Trump is deporting nonviolent immigrants while pardoning violent game members and letting them back into our communities.

I love that my church shares my values.

Jack of Diamonds is a hosta with really cool leaves; I was satisfied with that. But it turns out it also has pretty purple flowers. These flowers are *tiny* (the size of the flame on the back of a dime) and challenging to grab focus.

It's challenging to look at a bush full of flowers and find a composition interesting enough to photograph. When I stepped into my backyard this morning with my camera, I didn't intend to photograph this mountain laurel. In fact, I didn't even know it was blooming, as it's in a less visible spot.

NAFTA: My Front-Row Seat to the Race to the Bottom… Let me tell you what NAFTA looked like from the inside—because I lived it. Americans didn’t just lose jobs to Mexico, jobs were lost to China too. When it was ratified in 1994, I was the head designer at a company called Z Cavaricci. 🧵

On Monday, April 28, three people knelt in the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol to pray. Among them was Rev. Dr. William Barber—pastor, teacher, and tireless advocate for the poor. They weren't shouting. They weren't armed. They weren't vandalizing sacred symbols of democracy. bit.ly/3Sgh05C

DONALD TRUMP IS DESTROYING AMERICA, FOR PUTIN He doesn’t have some GREAT financial plan. He doesn’t have ANY policies. #DonaldTrumpIsATraitor whose mission is to DELIBERATELY trash the American economy. He’s a villain who hates his own country. #VoteBlue #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited 👇🏼

We need @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social in the Senate! “We are all a lot more powerful than Trump wants us to be… …We have to fight for a future that recognizes the status quo wasn’t working for everyone. But that doesn’t mean we burn it all down—we build it back up in a way that supports all of us.”

This is NOT legal.

Unbelievable.

1/2 Uplifting words from President Obama on the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act 🤩 “I know it can feel like a different era sometimes. But fifteen years ago, I signed the Affordable Care Act into law. Now nearly 50 million people have received health care through the ACA.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu shows how to stand up to cynical political theater: assert your values without apology, speak up for the people in your care, call out the lies & the shameful politics of manufactured crisis for political gain. More of this pls www.bostonglobe.com/2025/03/05/m...

America, This is our Germany 1933 moment. Decide who the f*ck you're gonna be, what you stand for, what you want your legacy to be—and how you are going to respond. This is beyond party, beyond country. This is about our collective humanity. #Ukraine

I am utterly appalled by how #47 and #2 are treating our allies. Zelensky has more guts than the both of them AND our entire Congress put together.

Craig Unger, an American journalist and writer who has written two books on Trump’s connections to Russia’s security services and the Russian mafia, says he is "absolutely certain" that the U.S. president is a Russian asset. The Kyiv Independent sat down with Unger to hear what makes him so certain.

Did you know? Republicans want to cut $880 BILLION from Medicaid to pay for a massive $4.5 TRILLION tax cut for their billionaire donors! Let that sink in for a minute…

When the world is a dumpster fire, I turn to nature for refreshment. My daffodils are blooming and it brings me joy. #EastCoastKin

“Every American can do something—show up, walk out, call, sign up, demonstrate engagement.” The Musk-Trump axis thrives on chaos and intimidation, but resistance is growing. Thousands protested, DOJ lawyers resigned & NYC officials walked out. Jen Rubin explains.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Donald Trump has already committed at least 23 potential illegalities, in only 16 days 🧵 1. Freezing funding for Medicaid and all other federal assistance programs 2. Revoking birthright citizenship 3. Using “expedited removal” to deport immigrants with zero due process
