Here's how the corruption works: Thursday: RJ Reynolds donates $5M to Trump Saturday: Trump invites RJR execs to Mar a Lago; execs ask to loosen regs on flavored vapes; Trump calls up RFK Jr. and tells him to change it Friday: FDA changes the policy

🚨BREAKING: Virginia court REJECTS Republican lawsuit in challenging the legislature’s authority to alter the 2021 congressional map. A HUGE victory for our client the DCCC and the voters of Virginia. Another defeat for the GOP. www.democracydocket.com/cases/virgin...

I'm cashing in personal leave to buy groceries. I'm not sure how to pay car insurance, get tires switched & renew car registration this month... I make $30/hr, I have no bad habits, don't eat out, don't buy much of anything new. I can't afford basic life, which I was doing fine at a year or so ago.

For the record: The Washington Post can go fuck itself. Support pro-democracy media that doesn't have its head stuck up Donald Trump's ass. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Great post - thanks #BecerraEra

I myself, liked #XavierBecerra from the get go! Clearly the most experienced candidate in a field that includes a billionaire, a momsplainer and two very, very weird Republicans… let’s just bank on experience Kids! California… #VoteBecerraforGovernor‼️ www.scopeweekly.com/2026/04/from...

@lauralorson.net Appreciate your work during the storms last night as I was driving from KC to Lawrence.

Yes. Hearings. And reminding their constituents that his continued untrammeled exercise of power is what's at stake this November. And, truth be told, to have more in the media raise this the way the New York Times did this week. We have to stop pretending you can't talk about it.

Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”. This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

the two most successful recent democratic presidential campaigns ran with progressive-coded messages -- obama 2008, biden 2020. the campaigns that adopt cautious centrism - harris 24, kerry 04, clinton 16, gore 2000 - fucking lose. so of course ny times editorial board wants dems to do the latter.

EVERYONE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT THIS: Conflict of interest doesn’t even begin to cover it. Chad Bianco really seized over 650,000 ballots based on conspiracy theories that don’t even hold up to basic scrutiny. No credible fraud. No real discrepancy. 🧵

I wrote a story of two doctors to illustrate what it really means to meet MAGA defectors where they are. We live in a sick nation, so we should pursue a culture of healing. And every movement toward health begins with a confrontation. www.the-reframe.com/a-confrontat...

i will vote for any candidate who offers up this slogan

So JD Vance was given two high-profile tasks for the Trump administration -- boost Orban's chances at re-election in Hungary and help strike a settlement in Iran -- and he appears to have failed horribly at both. I'm sure the NYT will be all over that.

If they were deliberately trying to lose nothing would look different.

I Watched Right-Wing Journalists Try to Shame Abdul El-Sayed and Hasan Piker @minnahfarshad.bsky.social zeteo.com/p/abdul-el-s...

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Pressure from American public seems to be having an effect. More than 50 Members of Congress are now calling for Trump's removal either via impeachment or the 25th Amendment. Keep calling your MOC's especially the GOP members. #sheshed

BREAKING: Trump caves and agrees to a two week ceasefire. Iran launches missiles toward Israel minutes after. More than 70 lawmakers call for Trump’s removal. Articles of impeachment filed against Trump. I have the latest: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

NEW: Fifteen laws in 11 states that could immunize the fossil fuel industry from climate-related legal claims have either been passed or are being debated. Many bills are part of a coordinated effort by groups linked to right-wing activist Leonard Leo.

What would be hilarious.. the new administration sends the GOP administration to the Hague for their war crimes. All reparations coming from their billionaire fortunes.

Yeah, I would absolutely support this. We need to make "attended the WHCD" a badge of shame. It is the embodiment of every single thing that is wrong with corporate journalism today.

A Wichita State University mathematician sued the top Kansas election official Wednesday seeking paper tapes from electronic voting machines, an effort to explain statistical anomalies favoring Republicans in counts coming from large precincts across the country. www.cjonline.com/story/news/p...

If the Supreme Court votes to repeal birthright citizenship it must be understood as a yet another vote to repeal themselves as justices. A Supreme Court seat doesn’t carry the power to overturn the Constitution. Elected leaders and citizens both must recognize all six of them as illegitimate.

Republicans had no problem starting fake investigations into Hunter Biden, but real corruption doesn't interest the Republicans...

NPR's continuing quest to alienate listeners.

The thing about the Harry Potter reboot is, even putting aside the fact that its creator is using it to fund bigoted hatred, you're still left with the story, which has aged very poorly. It's a cookbook for maintaining self-satisfied centrist comfort with systemic bigotry.

Bone spurs can't help him now

The government shredded a bunch of documents at the prison the week Epstein died. How many coincidences is that now? www.youtube.com/live/bXDROBe...

An immigration officer called Carlos and asked him to attend a meeting at an ICE office to discuss reunification with his children. There, officers tried to force him to sign documents he said he didn’t understand. When he refused, they stripped him, seized his ID and belongings, and chained him.

UN-Habitat estimates that universal housing for the planet including water access would cost less than 1% of global GDP. The current caste system, where humanity is born into hereditary debt to a few who claim to own the Earth is feudalism. It’s medieval and unsustainable.

Well, JB PRITZKER For Possible President, Then........

It is being reported on the ground in Cuba that everyone on a ventilator at this hospital died overnight. As a Cuban, I'm devastated.

The reason you never hand it to Nazis like Carlson is because whatever modicum of truth they are utilizing is in service of their ultimate goal, which is racist mass murder on a global scale, so praising them in order to burnish your own reputation for reasonableness is grotesque.

The objective truth is getting less objective all the time.

Buttigieg: "Trump's political operation was raising money off images at a dignified transfer. Any politician who does that has no business leading American troops into war. If the president is willing to raise campaign funds over the bodies of America's war dead, he's unfit to be commander in chief"

How the money spent on Trump’s Iran war could have helped Americans The federal government spent at least $11 billion in the first week of its war of choice on Iran.

Folks, 📅 2026 primaries are coming up fast. Check your state’s date. Make sure you’re registered. Make a plan to vote. Too much is riding on people sitting this one out. Stay ready so nobody decides the future for you. iwillvote.com
