So my rum and raisin cake is gluten free. It’s also raisin free. And cake free. OK it’s just rum.

Instead of spending $50 billion to bankroll Trump’s criminal war on Iran, we could: -Extend ACA subsidies for one year -Restore SNAP benefits for 2.4 million people -And ensure Medicaid coverage for nearly 2 million people It’s not about what we can afford. It’s about priorities.

Trump is clearly not well. It could not be more obvious.

Political corruption is even worse than you think. To build a functioning one-person-one-vote system where oligarchs don’t pull the strings, we need to make anti-corruption the central focus of our politics. @davidsirota.com explains why.

#Spain receives more sunshine than any country in Europe — and it is building the solar infrastructure that geography always promised. Extremadura, Andalusia, and Castilla-La Mancha became the center where Spain added new solar capacity, racing toward its target of 74% renewable electricity by 2030

Do the laws not apply to the rich and wealthy? Kleptocracy? Quid pro quo. Bribery. You name it. All of this is wrong and illegal. Shameful.

Trump has significantly raised the cost for every American of nearly every method of transportation for over two months because of his war, but his Secretary of Transportation continues to insist every day that Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg are responsible.

Wow Scott Jennings blows up at Adam Mockler: “Get your fucking hand out of my face” Mockler: We all know that Scott Jennings is more than happy to defend a war with a country that starts with letters Ira that we are currently failing that is going to put us trillions of dollars more in debt.

Pigs suffering in the DEATH TRUCK 💔 And humans are supposed to be compassionate beings? Don’t pay for animal abuse. #LiveVegan be that compassionate being 🙏

In the next few weeks, the average price of gas in the US will be higher than it's ever been. And that's 💯 on Donald Trump.

The editorial cartoonist's pen is one of the sharpest tools in journalism, whittling issues down to basics for satire or rage. I'm proud to say that my long-ago colleague, Milt Priggee, is unafraid to shock with a tough point of view.

We defeated the Nazis once. We can do it again. Death to Israel. The River to the Sea! NEVER AGAIN! Shalom!!

“Each of us here has a story of generational struggle. Amazon is trying to erase that.” Warehouse workers, delivery drivers, and software engineers are organizing against America’s deportation machine.

I didn’t know this. Did you?

On this day 70 years ago-May 1, 1956-the polio vaccine was first made widely available to the public. The vaccine’s developer, Dr. Jonas Salk, did not patent the vaccine so that it would remain available to as many people as possible in the US and internationally. Image: Harvey Georges/AP.

The ignorance of the people who vote for these criminals is why we are where we are. Good morning everyone. ☕️☕️☕️

Without DEI, immigrants, openness, and inclusion, this meal would not be possible.

Trump calling for the arrest of Obama and Clinton, for treason, can only mean one thing. Trump knows he’s guilty of treason .

The world’s ten richest people — all Americans — saw their collective net worth increase by $260 billion in April. These ten people are now worth a combined $2.7 trillion. The bottom 50% of U.S. households, 66 million in total, is worth $4.3 trillion. Wondering if inequality is out of control?

MEMPHIS — Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social : “We have to defend district 9. We have to defend Black representation & our ability to elect Black people to positions of power. Because that is what was fought for, and died for, and that is what democracy must be in order for it to be realized.”

A May Day protester is asked why they are out protesting today in NYC: "People are suffering. People are dying. The rich get richer off the backs of poor and working class people." Nailed it!

Trump may be forced to cancel bloody birthday bash event coming at ‘worst possible moment’ www.rawstory.com/white-house-...

It’s astounding that Zelensky survived a full-scale war without ever having a ballroom.

We’re putting Trump, corporations, and billionaires on notice and reminding them that the real power in this country lies with the people. #MayDay

WITNESS BACKS CLAIM OF PLAINTIFF WHO SAYS TRUMP RAPED HER REPEATEDLY AT AGE 13 www.eastcountymagazine.org/witness-supp... Claiming she saw Trump rape a 13-year-old girl at Epstein’s home in 1994. Do you think that Jesus would say that Trump is A Good Christian? #Impeach this Rapist POS!

Today's decision by 5th Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily reinstated that abortion pills be obtained in person rather than by mail This curbs access to medication abortion, most common method of terminating pregnancies in US, in states where abortion is banned #Pinks www.bbc.com/news/article...

In Korea, ambulances need a hospital’s permission before bringing in patients and this causes all sorts of horrible problems. Recently a 30-week pregnant woman went into labor and was moved from Cheongju all the way to Busan to find a hospital. The baby died 😔 www.chosun.com/national/reg...

IF this DOESN'T Do It America... m.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo-d...

To be clear. America has some TERRIBLE people. They voted for TERRIBLE people to represent them. These TERRIBLE people are making TERRIBLE decisions. They DO NOT like democracy. They DO NOT like freedom. They ARE NOT patriots. They DO NOT want to form a more perfect union. This is America 2026.

right now in Los Angeles.

Exactly. The DOJ will only charge the people the president perceives as political enemies. Selective prosecution motion GRANTED. So ordered.

The Perm refinery in Russia, located 1,500 km from the Ukrainian border, has once again been attacked by drones. Nearly half of the Russian oil sector’s export and processing infrastructure has been crippled by Ukrainian drone attacks. The Russian economy is on the brink of collapse.

He said what?

A win! Thank you for always making your voices heard. The House passed a DHS funding bill by voice vote this afternoon, ending a 75-day shutdown the longest agency shutdown in U.S. history. The GOP caved. The bill funds DHS but includes no money for ICE or Customs and Border Protection.

Thank you for being a great parent who is raising great kids. My mother let my grandfather call us terrible names. When my older sister got pregnant with her Black partner it got worse. My sister fled. He called me horrible things. Mom joined in. Thank you for teaching those kids to stand up!

There is no NYC without unions. A people united and organized cannot be defeated. Together, we're showing the world what solidarity means.
