Someone asked a bunch of kids what the first thing was that cane to mind when they thought about Trump. Their answers are priceless. Check out the video.

In the face of people and families in such turmoil and pain, it’s been bothering me why the White House destruction is so deeply upsetting, this about sums it up…

In my first op-ed for @zerotothree.bsky.social I underscore that Medicaid, SNAP, and other supports for families “are lifelines that give kids a solid start, esp families who face extra hurdles.” The Senate must reject these dangerous cuts. www.the74million.org/zero2eight/w...

Mother’s Day is May 11th. And this is the size of an epidural needle. Love on those Mamas.

Apparently it takes getting bald patches to realize I might be stressed. Hasn’t happened since the pandemic. Sigh.

Coexisting… but only with the right people.

Such a tender story of faith.

First, they came for USAID. When Trump and Elon decide your priorities are next—cancer research, disaster relief, Social Security—what will you do? There’s a legal process for a reason. Letting them ignore it means nothing is safe. Once gone, the Rule of Law doesn’t grow back.

Don’t look away.

“Although I inherited the worst economic crisis in decades with unemployment above 6% when I took office, we’ve had the lowest average unemployment rate of any administration in 50 years with unemployment at 4.1% as I leave,” - President Biden News flash: Trump had nothing to do with any of this

Kick-butt list of advocates to follow. Thanks @aaronblack.bsky.social

And so it begins. Surprised he didn’t suggest the Golf of Trump.

A rodent in the snow, much like the Trump administration: unexpected and unsettling.

Bittersweet final visit. I’ll never forget how hard people worked to try to level the playing field and make life a bit easier for working families. Now we will’ll get to see how the oligarchs tackle the troubles ahead.

THIS IS BIG: Over 9.2 million workers are getting a raise on January 1 as 21 states increase their minimum wages! 💪

This is their childcare plan: raising money from voters to pay family for childcare. Doesn’t bode well for the rest of us. Trump campaign paid JD Vance’s aunt $1,000 for “childcare services” a week after the election. HT Roger Sollenberger @ The Daily Beast

I hate to love this.

At the end of the day Donald Trump knows “the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans!” He said so himself. Pass it on…

I knew it already but so glad President Biden made it official: Cecile Richards is a national hero! Couldn’t 💗 this more.

One down! Who’s next?

Remember when being a woman was a pre-existing medical condition? Insurance companies could actually deny coverage for pregnancies. MAGA Republicans have promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and leave every person in the US with a pre existing condition vulnerable again. We will stop them!

A feed cleanser.

OK. Dr. Oz overseeing Medicare & Medicaid? Now we know Trump is just trolling us. This is the team you bring in if you want to destroy the federal government. But we knew that was the plan.

Dr. Oz? The TV doctor who made millions peddling fake “miracle” cures and trashing real medicine. Now he’s set to lead healthcare for seniors, people with disabilities, and low-income families? Perfect pick to grift the sick while gutting care. America’s healthcare just hit rock bottom. Buckle up.

For as long as I live, I will never understand how anyone could have chosen Trump over this.

Top Dem on Ethics Cmte Rep Wild on Gaetz report: “It should certainly be released to the Senate, and I think it should be released to the public, as we have done with many other investigative reports in the past." Absolutely right. This report must be made public.

New Democratic Senators. Gives me hope.

You ain’t kidding, Nandos.

“It’s not just about what happened this election cycle…What unfolded was decades in the making, and we have to understand all of that in order to grab back hold of the arc of history.” Reflections on the incoming administration for @thecut.bsky.social

Taxiing Airplanes = target practice in Texas

Republican Congressman Gonzales: I serve with some real scumbags. Matt Gaetz, he paid minors to have sex with him at drug parties.

Lesson one: do not obey in advance.
