Some old guy, driving on the wrong side of the road, hits a person on bike and keeps going and the NYPD won’t even take a police report!

It appears ICE is emptying out detention centers ahead of possible inspections.

damn aaron swartz tried to warn everybody about sam altman

If you're in Ohio, or know people there, today is the deadline to register to vote. Please CHECK to make sure you're still registered and weren't purged from the rolls.

It's funny because Graham Platner is the only one in the race to endorse, unambiguously, actual war crimes under his own name in print. but the "anti-war" left decided war crimes in Iraq don't count any more

Somebody said it out loud. Now we need more

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

anyone attending the white house correspondents dinner is a fucking traitor

I will personally be taking account of every journalist who attends the WHCA dinner and spend the rest of my life making sure everybody knows that they did

As I asked here, "Can you imagine if all presidents used the federal budget as a gigantic slush fund to spend at will?" historykeepshappening.substack.com/p/trump-keep...

what all Democrats everywhere have to look forward to if we fuck it up and nominate Graham Platner

you got to understand, Maine is maybe the least on-line state in America, which weirdly works super well for very on-line candidate, people can't recognize the kind of very on-line guy Platner is. The mainstream media is utterly unwilling to say its a Nazi Tattoo "resembles" is what they say

yep, but not only them, I mean even DNC chair Ken Martin failed to draw a red line, and indeed where are any outside forces saying "no this is not okay"? Mills is on her own against a well put together campaign of DC consultants with big name out of state endorsers

Here are the stories of some of the human beings who died horrific deaths from preventable disease because Trump and Musk and their flunkies decided to murder them by gleefully destroying USAID and the entire global aid system:

This is just long term stupid.

*"Blue Danube" starts playing*

It was vital that the media report on the fact that Joe Biden was tested for Parkinson's disease. Here's why the media is right to ignore the fact that a clearly incapacitated Donald Trump disappears for four days each month only to reappear with severe bruising on his hand.

we'll see how it shakes out over the course of years, but as of right now, mamdani is definitely showing how the future of good progressive governance means "use government to do good things and then post about it" both parts are important!

Republican Congressman Caught Asking Another Staffer for Nudes Representative Tony Gonzales was already facing a scandal after he had an affair with a staff member who later committed suicide.

“Families have reported children in mental distress: a two-year-old who hit himself, potty-trained children who began wetting themselves, and a 13-year-old who was put into isolation after attempting suicide.”

I will never dine with Donald Trump. You will never see me attend a fancy event with him sitting on the dais. I choose instead to fight him in court. In 2020, I started Democracy Docket to be a media outlet that shares my values. If you agree, subscribe now: bit.ly/4qmEiFz

This is not business as usual. Every American should be doing what they can to get Trump out of office. That means no WHCD, but media oppositon to Trump. It means no Congressional work periods but Dems in Congress in constant session in DC opposing Trump.

OPINION: "More than two dozen sites continue to be used for public parking in Center City, one of Philadelphia’s most desirable residential areas. Those lots are a valuable, untapped resource." — Architecture critic Inga Saffron

1. I know the idea of "norms" went out with Cheers and technically there's no law about presidential medical disclosures, but the White House and its doctors covering up the president's true medical condition ought to be a Watergate-level scandal

Unfortunately this is the norm for children and youth who are incarcerated anywhere. abcnews.com/US/wireStory... - people accept it as part of incarceration.

Stephen Miller has apprehended a child at the White House Easter Egg Roll and will be turning him over to ICE at the earliest opportunity

Cannot put into words how much I want this monstrous administration to LEAVE MINNEAPOLIS ALONE

Remember that time when ICE shot a man as he fled into his home and then claimed he beat an agent with a snowshovel? And we were all like "you're lying"? They were lying www.nytimes.com/2026/04/06/u...

There’s no way to rule out any action from Trump or his maladjusted appointees. But how absurdly ironic to use nuclear weapons against a country they are purportedly trying to deny nuclear capability. And an incentive for all nations to develop their own nuclear weapons. It’s all insanity.

a cursed cursed dinner. also an extremely visible high-profile tv anchor slid into my twitter DMs when I was still on twitter to tell me how great this essay was and it took everything in my power to not be like "dude it is also about you."

The only thing I don't understand here is that Hegseth DID have a confirmation hearing. Unless @radiofreetom.bsky.social is being facetious. In which case: hahahaha

“Given a choice between compassion and destruction, I choose destruction” is really what Easter is all about.

Trump's idiot sons want to get rich off the war Dad started by selling drone interceptors to nations being attacked by Iranian drones, because their dad started a war. Doesn't get more profiteering than that!

DHS repeatedly said that an aggressive apartment raid in Chicago last fall was prompted by intel on a gang takeover. Documents show the real story behind the raid was to target alleged squatters — with the landlord's blessing. (Published Feb.)

Okay, again... this is how TF you write a GD'ed headline!!!

Time for this again

ICYMI

Sometimes you have to hear it plainly, and @sbg1.bsky.social stated it plainly in @newyorker.com’s The Political Scene podcast: “Donald Trump is a rogue president, and he has now made the United States of America a rogue superpower.” (Apr 3 episode, a good listen www.newyorker.com/podcast/poli...)

Really not sure why anyone is going to this. Honestly no longer understand what the WHCA is even about/good for anymore? Also this:

A very important detail is that it was CID who called ICE. Noteworthy.

My latest piece on Substack about the 25th Amendment. Isn't it time? substack.com/@katiephang/...

Now we’re cooking

Periodic reminder that Markey has a bill to take away nuclear first strike powers from the president. Possibly the single most important piece of legislation a Dem majority could pass. No one should be trusted with such power.

I missed this in February — this is what Chicago organizers worked for from 2010 to 2018: closing Chicago’s trauma desert. People say “game-changer” but this is a LIFE-changer. One of the great Chicago community stories ever. blockclubchicago.org/2026/02/26/a...

Mark Jacob on how the press ignores the biggest Trump story: “The president of the United States is clearly mentally unfit for office."

25th Amendment. Articles of Impeachment. Now. What the hell else do you gutless, partisan fools need to see happen? What elze does he need to say? What else?

Amidst everything else, the Trump regime has quietly killed off the U.S. Forest Service 🌲 “One hundred and ninety-three million acres of your national forests… just handed, on a silver platter, to the people who’ve spent their entire careers trying to destroy it.” www.hatchmag.com/articles/tru...

Have you been purged from the voter rolls in LA? Better find out today! Only have a few days left to correct your status...April 15 deadline! #yourVoiceYourVote #UsDemocracy #demvoice1 #voices4victory

We’re living through a defining moment in our nation’s history, and the mainstream media is nowhere close to rising to it.

@habeasdorkus.bsky.social we are listening to the big dig podcast
