Oh. A federal judge in Texas just dismissed a lawsuit FBI Director Kash Patel filed against former FBI official and MSNBC analyst Frank Figliuzzi. The $250 million suit alleged Figliuzzi "fabricated" claims that Patel was frequently in nightclubs rather than being at work...

BREAKING: The YES vote will WIN Virginia’s redistricting referendum, allowing Democrats to redraw maps ahead of the midterms and potentially flip the state from 6–5 to 10–1 — a four-seat swing that could decide control of Congress.

Texas redistricts without a vote, Republicans cheer. Dems in Virginia respond by putting it UP FOR A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, it passes, Republican cry foul. Oh well. Good job Virginia!!

Yes takes an early lead. Only 8% reporting. Stay in line, Virginia! I'm hoping the yes vote cracks 60%.

I’m shocked. www.texastribune.org/2026/04/21/t...

Breaking MS NOW: The Justice Department has begun withdrawing several subpoenas that had just been issued in the criminal probe of former CIA Director John Brennan — revealing the confusion and disorder within the controversial investigation.

BREAKING: Trump's approval rating drops to 33% in a new AP-NORC poll 32% approval on Iran 30% approval on the economy apnews.com/article/trum...

Today, VA Dems are showing the party how to fight back. VA voter: Trump has explicitly stated to state legislators, 'find me more seats.' As Democrats, we can't come to a boxing match where the other person brings a knife.

ICE Glasses. Because the Immigration and Customs guys and gals have shown great responsibility with their roles. What could possibly go wrong with federal law enforcement having access to everything about us, at a literal glance. When will enough, be enough? Rise up. With a quickness! #SheShed

BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research? RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

WaPo: Annual flu vaccine no longer required for U.S. military, Hegseth says. Winston Churchill: "The main difference between humans and animals is that animals would never let the stupidest one in the group lead them." #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutRepublicans

This is your reminder that it's been ten months since the assassination of Melissa Hortman, her husband and her dog, and there hasn't been even a hint of justice for her family, friends or colleagues.

I’m glad that the Mad King isn’t going to commit war crimes right now, while once again it is obvious this bumbling fool has no idea what he’s doing.

GOOD TO KNOW: As California Attorney General, Xavier Becerra sued Donald Trump to stop family separation during his first term. As HHS Secretary, he rolled out programs to reunite unaccompanied children with their families. 1/2

so, Donny's ace team of parking lot negotiators were actually close to a deal with Iran, when Donny blew it all up by tweeting infantile threats. awesome job, you fucking idiot. take a victory lap. I mock all that shit in today's post. thank you for your attention to it. link is here: bit.ly/3QkGa5v

Trump said it himself. “If this passes, federal policy changes.” Good. Because what we have right now is hurting people. Virginia, this is your moment. Vote YES before 7. #VoteYesVirginiaToday #SheShed

Becerra for Ca Governor 🎯 Xavier is surging in the polls 🔥🔥 “NoH8 on the Hill, NoH8 anywhere. No American, regardless of who they love, should be denied equal protection under the law. History is on our side and our march towards justice will prevail.”-XB LFG🔥🔥🔥🔥 #SheShed #BecerraForGovernor

RUIZ: Bloomberg reports that Trump & the WH have benched you because you're making the president look bad RFK Jr: That's not true RUIZ: I think the reporting is correct. You're making the president look bad. You talked publicly about snorting cocaine off a toilet bowl seat. Your words, not mine.

Rep. @repyassansari.bsky.social: “Naked, open, brazen corruption. The Trump administration is guided and shaped by it… Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, is shaping US foreign policy while simultaneously soliciting billions from the same foreign governments he's negotiating with.“

um wat

Trump’s scandal-ridden Labor Secretary resigns after reports of drinking and misconduct

CNN put together a montage of Trump saying as far back as March 9 that his war against Iran "is going to be finished pretty quickly," then him saying that same thing over and over for the past six weeks

Went on Piers Morgan today, where I was able to confront Pete Kegseth's Pastor, Doug Wilson, who wants to end the 19th Amendment, create a Christian Supremacist nation, & believes slavery was "mutually harmonious." Yeah, it didn't go well for him. I was able to reference Pulp Fiction. Out later.

💯 🎯 (the midterms can't come soon enough)

If this is true (because almost everything he says isn't), it shows how stupid Donald is. He doesn't realize that this increased demand will make US oil prices go up, causing domestic gas prices to rise further. The only beneficiary? The US oil and gas industry, which gave Donald a $1 billion bribe.

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

As Trump's war on Iran continues, reminder that his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals. War gives dictators like Trump (and his family) more power and more wealth.

Alright Virginia tomorrow April 21st is the day we meet the moment and #VoteYESVirginia The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice, we have to help bend it. Trump started this gerrymandering fight and tomorrow we will finish it, so make sure you vote.🗳️🗳️

Get excited. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/20/b...

John Roberts' wife is not the only Supreme Court spouse to shake down people with business before the court to give bribes. Ginni Thomas has a "consulting firm" (AKA a PO Box for checks) to funnel money to Clarence. #Corruption

Listen to Nancy Pelosi, Virginia: You have the absolute power to elect a Democratic Congress that will respect the people and hold Trump accountable. TOMORROW, April 21st, is Election Day—make your plan to vote YES! 6am–7pm. #VoteYesVirginia

The Onion has successfully bought InfoWars. Happy 4/20. 😂

The reason Trump pressured Republican led states to redraw their election maps without voter approval is because he knows his policies are unpopular. He knows Republicans will lose without map rigging. Virginia can vote YES for fair maps to stop him tomorrow. #VoteYesVirginia

#VoteYesVirginia “It wasn’t going to be a fair fight nationally if you try steel seats in Texas, in N Carolina, and in Missouri… What were we supposed to do, nothing? Just allow them to try to stack the deck…to steal seats? All we’re trying to do is…make the system as fair as it can possibly be.”

You can set your watch by Trump’s weekend Iran war market manipulations.

Trump Friday: ‘Peace with Iran’ Markets soar & oil prices drop on the jubilant BS. Trump Sunday: ‘I might have to take out their bridges & power plants and Pentagon Pete just fired on a Eye-Ran tanker! ’ Market futures drop & oil prices climb. Rinse, repeat. This is a crime.

Holy shit! We now know that Trump freaked out so badly, and became such a frazzled mess during the rescue operation for the pilot of the downed aircraft that he was booted and banished from the briefing room. 😂🤣👇

Friends in CALIFORNIA Soon ...your ballots will be mailed ...really soon Your jungle primary is just nuts ... Can't see CALIFORNIA with a MAGA GOVERNOR , Hilton or Bianco...that's a disaster For your consideration Please take a look at @xavierbecerra.bsky.social Go to xavierbecerra.com

Wow. To hear a Catholic priest make the connection from the Trump administration to “white Christian nationalism” is 🔥 But let’s not pretend this is new. Christianity was used to justify slavery, and now the right uses Christianity to justify racism. I appreciate a priest saying it out loud.

If you haven’t done this yet, please do—it only takes a second, and it’s super important!!

Easy solution: Ban these gluttonous resource hogs.

Obama just moves different. That kind of confidence comes with nothing to hide. The Epstein files aren’t going away. Keep talking. #SheShed
