Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis. Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention. So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption. 1/ Here it is - in one🧵

In Texas they can teach kids that a whale swallowed a man and spit him out three days later because God wanted to teach him a lesson but they can't teach kids that slavery was bad.

Since creepy insurrectionist Mike Johnson is so worried about a Democratic-led Congress opening investigations against the MAGA regime and their acolytes, your daily reminder that Mike isn’t a Speaker in any way shape or form, he’s a political terrorist and a criminal.

Why are some mail-in ballots received after Election Day despite being postmarked before Election Day? “Will it shock you to learn,” Marc Elias asks, “that the same postmaster general who wants to cooperate with Donald Trump … that under his tenure, election mail is moving slower and slower?”

This is inaccurate reporting. The US and Iran both violated the MoU in the last 48 hours, and not just in minor ways but in sustained and spectacular ones. And Donald Trump is lying to America—pretending no violation invalidates the MoU—so he doesn't have to seek Congressional approval for his war.

“Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” - Mister Rogers 💛 My heart cannot stop thinking about our neighbors of Venezuela. They need our help ❤️‍🩹

JD Vance made up a horrific and racist lie about a group of people, and now those people will be deported because the Supreme Court refuses to acknowledge, let along regard as disqualifying, the clear racial bias of this administration.

something HASC and/or House Oversight seriously needs to do next year is subpoena any records pertaining to US military orders being given to time strikes with regard to the markets

NEW: A spokesperson for U.S. Health and Human Services confirmed to Stateline on Friday that the agency is canceling 53 out of 67 grants, worth about $68 million, under the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, affecting grantees in more than two dozen states.

So, do I have this right? We’re removing artificial colors from M&Ms but giving immunity to companies that poison us?

I was on a Zoom call with advocates from Springfield and elsewhere in Ohio yesterday afternoon, and it’s absolutely horrifying and inexcusable what this administration is doing to this community and the lie that Sam Alito told to OK this.

“We’re talking about the power to mass expel people who have done nothing wrong to countries that remain unsafe.”

The thing about Black people can smell a sundown town from miles away. And white people, if you don’t know what a sundown town is—shame on you; goddamn educate yourself. Get me out of Texas. Please, thanks.

Trump wants to create a national database of every registered voter in the country. Then, he and the GOP want to decide who gets to stay on it. “It’s a way of essentially taking over the voter registration process,” Marc Elias says, “or, more precisely, taking over the results.”

By now, I think you get it. I'll keep posting until we get 10,000 letters to Congress on Russ Vought's mad power-grab to take over all federal grant making. Goodbye peer review & expert advice, welcome the commissars! Let's stop Russ together. Share, share, share! actionnetwork.org/letters/oppo...

The misuse of anecdotal evidence is the heart of pseudoscience and the currency of alternative medicine.

TRAVEL SAFETY TIPS FOR WOMEN: SPECIFIC TIPS FOR WOMEN WHO TRAVEL ALONE: Yell "FIRE" when you need help instead of "help"! People don't care enough to stop when they hear cries for help, because someone else needs aid. FIRE may impact them, so their interest is piqued! 😏

A three-year-old Amber Alert remains active for Keshaun Williams, who disappeared in a suspected abduction that has turned into a cold case. Now, the Cleveland teenager would be 18.

Zip your lips. Today is Juneteenth, a day to celebrate the liberation and freedom of Black Americans. It's not a day for you to center your white candidate. Especially when you all berated her and called her toxic, then said you don't need Black votes.

The USFWS plans to hand over more than 700 acres of The Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge — home to some of the United States’ most critically endangered species — to SpaceX in a reckless land swap.

Since March, Vivek Ramaswamy has traveled to Portugal, Greece, the Bahamas, Port Clinton and Akron aboard the new private jet that he worked hard to hide ownership of. Full logs, here: www.rooster.info/p/vivek-rama...

On Tuesday, the Trump administration quietly erased the word "minority" from a rule meant to protect & support minority-owned banks Now, a Black-owned bank might not qualify as "minority-owned," while "socially disadvantaged" whites can open minority-owned institutions

The struggle to achieve the ideals of liberty and justice for all requires courage, perseverance, and people willing to move our country closer to its highest promise.

Juneteenth reminds us that nothing about freedom can be taken for granted. As we commemorate the end of slavery in the United States, we are also called to reckon with the lasting impacts on Black Americans, and inequality in this country more broadly.

There's a big difference between paying lip service to working families and actually fighting for them — the proof is in the cost of everything around us. Cook shifting this race in our favor is one more indication that people in OH-7 and across the country are ready to put #WorkersFirst in DC.

Jourdon Anderson, formerly enslaved, was asked by his old master to return to the Tennessee plantation where he'd been enslaved. His reply still echoes as a testament to dignity and freedom. This Juneteenth, let's vow to lift people up and bring them together — never to stand on their backs.

Happy Juneteenth! 161 years ago today, the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas were finally freed. Let us celebrate our ancestors’ strength and resilience, and remind ourselves of the work we still have to do to create the future they dreamed of.

Yesterday, I met Jay Bhattacharya briefly for the first time. I don’t think he’s a fan. 😬🤷‍♀️😇 He spoke yesterday at an NIH workshop on Health Disparities. I want to reflect on his talk, as well as the brief interaction that followed. Here goes… 🧵1/???

I'm up early. First things, first. Write to your members of Congress. Russell Vought is out of control. He is seeking to take over the entire federal apparatus of grant-making. He is a dictator in waiting. He who controls the purse controls it all. actionnetwork.org/letters/oppo...

Make sure you have your plan to vote on Tuesday! Today marks the end of early voting in Maryland!. Polls open at 7am on Tues June 23rd! (I lost a bunch of weight since that sign picture 🤣🥴)

Our dear friend Susan is a fighter. One of the strongest people I know, and an inspiration to so many of us. Susan, you’ve beaten impossible odds before. I believe with all my heart you’ll do it again. Please, everyone, send your positive thoughts, prayers, and love her way.

Social Security is earned, not given. We paid into it our entire working lives. Speaker Johnson knows how unpopular cuts would be. That’s why these conversations happen behind closed doors instead of out in the open. We earned these benefits. We’ll fight to keep them. #HandsOffSocialSecurity

Michelle Obama: "We simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent. To ring our hands in despair. To wait for someone else to fix the problem. Y'all, hope is all we have. Because hope is the essential spark that lights the fire of change…"

"…But hope is a choice. Whether or not we use our voices to speak up is a choice. Voting is a choice. Being a decent human being is a choice. Believing that we still hold the power to build a country that reflects us all is a choice."

Michelle Obama: "No one has the right to sit in judgment of who is American enough. And that's why, folks, we simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent."

I have 50k followers—there are lots of you lovely people and you are very active up in this sky palace. If each of you hit the re-skeet, I’d deeply appreciate it. Do it for Sandy Hook.

And while I am THOROUGHLY enjoying pointing and laughing at this administration's avoidable failures just like the rest of you, I WOULD like to see this problem solved sooner rather than later. Why? Many species of cyanobacteria are capable of producing cyanotoxins, 17/19
