Democracy Under Siege - This is an important and timely film that does an excellent job of detailing how we got here and what is at stake. We all know what that is, but it's instructive to see it so well laid out. The issues are covered succinctly and clearly. I can't recommend it highly enough.

You've probably heard of the knitted redhat movement. This is from a Norwegian about the WWII history of it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iEK...

Join Hands Off! this Wednesday (4/16) at 8 PM EST/5 PM PST for a nationwide call to find out how we can build on the resounding success on April 5th and keep the pressure on Trump, Musk, and their enablers in Congress. www.mobilize.us/handsoff/eve...

The Soul of America - A beautifully written reminder of what we believe and what we fight for. tinyurl.com/3advyn63

Trump has nominated Project 2025 author Jonathan Berry to serve as Solicitor for the Department of Labor. In his chapter, Berry advocates for: creating state exemptions to the NRLA, the return of company unionism, rolling back overtime protections, & loosening child labor laws. Lots more here:

1. Do not obey in advance 2. Defend institutions 3. Beware the one party state 4. Take responsibility for the face of the world 5. Remember professional ethics 6. Be wary of paramilitaries 7. Be reflective if you must be armed 8. Stand out 2/5

The gutting of HHS and the CDC will literally and directly lead to the sickening and deaths of millions of Americans, and many more globally. Far more than that will suffer needlessly. This is horrific.

A Heartfelt Thank You! 💙🦋💙🦋

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

A former Soviet intelligence officer alleges Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.” Alnur Mussayev served in the 6th Directorate, responsible for counter-intelligence support in the economy. One key objective was “recruiting businessmen from capitalist countries.”

If you want to make calls, this will make it easy. We need to make these calls to put pressure on our reps, even if you didn't vote for them. Even if you're in a red state. Raise your voice. And keep raising it. 5calls.org And Vic Meyers is a great YouTuber. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYs8...

@revealinglight.bsky.social Just wanted to update you on that report that Kamala would have won except for voter intimidation and suppression (although I'm sure it happened). David Pakman had a piece on it looking at the numbers and the method used. youtu.be/GugeoBUjye4?...

This is an update on the question of whether voter suppression was sufficient to elect 47. I'm posting this because I posted about the article in question yesterday, and wanted to update any who saw that. Please pass this on if you passed on the previous post. youtu.be/GugeoBUjye4?...

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

HUGE BREAKING NEWS: Pete Buttigieg is seriously considering running for Senate in Michigan after Gretchen Whitmer says she wouldn’t run for the open seat. Smash that RT if you agree Secretary Buttigieg would make a FANTASTIC Senator!! 💙💙

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that Jim Acosta was one of the few watchable journalists on CNN before they let him go, and MSNBC should prioritize hiring him to replace Andrea Mitchell or Katy Tur. Or BOTH.

Not a great sign when Wired says it won't name at least two fo the people Musk has installed to run the Office of Personnel Management because they may be minors www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

God bless

Best kind of Danish pastry!

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Who can make people understand the gravity of today's assaults on DOJ? For starters, prominent republican former DOJ'ers, who should be up in arms. This goes very far beyond party. He is a mad man strafing the department, circling the Capitol, and doing it again.

Mike Johnson represents a state whose largest city was built below sea level behind levees sandwiched between the ocean and a massive river on hurricane alley, but he doesn’t want to give aid to CA because their policies invite natural disasters.

Jimmy's here in Heaven, and let me tell you, it's rare to meet someone who got the 'love thy neighbor' part so right.

Congress has the power to block Trump from taking office, but lawmakers must act now. They aren't going to act if you don't make them.

What a random thing to push before taking office. I wonder what the reason might be? 🤔

Trump's nominee to run the Department of Defense dismissing both the American flag (while sitting before at least five of them) and the Pledge of Allegiance as annoying distractions from the "truth" is not something I thought I would hear. But these are crazy, dumb times we are living in.
