@maddow.msnbc.com My dad is 98, WWII USNavy Veteran. Showed up for democracy in San Diego today. "I fought for it once, I'll fight for it again!" 💙🇺🇸💙 THIS is what democracy looks like!!!!

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Liz Cheney a republican had to come up with our Project 2029 but it’s so good I can get behind it! Cause fighting this fascist president has aged me considerably!

Trump's EPA just moved to reverse state and local bans on toxic "forever chemicals" that can lead to birth defects and cancer.  So much for "Make America Healthy Again." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/05/trump-pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals

The up coming dates and locations of the fighting Oligrachy tour with Bernie and AOC.

Some businesses now showing the “Trump Tariff Fee” on their bills to customers.

That one time at band camp…

THIS MADE ME SMILE

This conversation (especially in the first half) contains some of the most soberly disturbing assessments of this political moment, expertly distilled by David Frum. Sorry for mixing my metaphors.

weird, what could explain this

I hate to say this, and it gives me the chills just to think it, but CECOT is on (and not a short way down) the road to Auschwitz.

Elon Musk cutting that waste, fraud and abuse!

I keep thinking about how women are most at risk of being murdered by abusive men after they've decided to leave the relationship and it's not exactly a subtle comparison to what's being done to the USA at the moment

“They’ve been relentlessly dismantling every single civil rights agency in the federal government, and this could be the last one standing.” Garza added that she is “prepared to challenge any attempt to illegally remove me as chairwoman.” www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

"I have spent the better part of my career listening to loud men talk tough to disguise their weakness." We’re stanning Janet Mills for her unwavering commitment to the law and her refusal to capitulate to bullies. ❤️‍🔥🙌💪 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u... www.wmtw.com/article/no-n...

Mahmoud Khalil expressed his political point of view peacefully.   That’s supposed to be permitted in a democracy. If this egregious assault on civil liberties stands, what’s to stop Trump from arresting American citizens who support any cause his regime doesn’t like?

“MORE THAN 500 ASSOCIATES and staff at a top global law firm have signed a letter urging firm leadership not to enter into a consent agreement with Donald Trump as the White House ramps up its targeting of the legal profession.” @samsteindc.bsky.social

Honestly, I don't even know what to say. This is literally perfect.

We heard the rumors. Maybe president panican will declare martial law, maybe he won’t. But do you think this clown car of incompetent sycophantic signal leakers can keep all 300 million of us down? Absolutely not. We will not comply. Here’s some advice from Oliver Kornetzke. Let’s get weird.

Thinking of our TTS colleagues today. 💙 "DOGE has already dismantled two of the federal government’s key tech brain trusts—the U.S. Digital Service and 18F (the latter of which is housed within TTS)—and now appears to be stripping TTS itself of its resources and purpose."

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks.

The 10% tariff alone is a $2500 per household annual tax hike!

"...music for traveling, with cinematic characteristics, evoking images of a convulsive, dark, nostalgic world of our times." Many, many thanks to @loop.cl_guillermo_escudero for this review of Subdivisions. loop.cl/400-lonely-t...

one of my tiktok followers made this

A federal judge (appointed by Trump) rules for the Associate Press, against the Trump administration's banning it from WH coverage, finding a violation of the 1st Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I would be making a big deal out of this if I were an elected Democrat

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...

I so wish the judge would respond: "Listen Assholes: I have jurisdiction over YOU. And if you don't do as I order, those guys in El Salvador won't be the only ones in jail. Now, hop to it."

I’m no socialist but this speaks to me

Look Who Was More Financially Responsible….😊💙

Excited for all the new American banana and coffee factories.

These are the same people that were willing to let their grandparents die so they could eat at Arby's again without a mask

State media.

It's all projection.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.
