Having to watch a bootlegged copy of a video from another country because my country censored it is making me feel as if I'm living in 1980s Eastern Germany.

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

Sorry I could not finish my paper but the neighbor's car alarm went off and over the course of the afternoon I went slowly mad until eventually they found me on the floor between the couch and the coffee table, silently weeping...

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

POV: you are a young woman celebrating a recent academic success

We could spend years demanding a list be released, or we could just believe women…

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.” A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans. Nero would be proud.

This is the most entertaining day I have had since somebody broke into the Louvre. 😆

They stole my seat, the least they could do is finish my homework.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

I'm old enough to remember when Michelle Obama planted a vegetable garden on White House grounds and Republicans were incensed. I remember someone saying it was a slap in the face to farmers. I'll see their organically grown tomatoes and raise them one demolished East Wing.

Mamdani is already getting the criminals out of NYC!

A picture is worth 1,000 words.

The world joined us and said, “No Kings.”

One of my favs

These four billion open tabs brought to you by my deep appreciation for a good footnote.

One of the most TRUE signs I have ever seen at a march. Write this down and act upon it, friends. #NoKings #Manhattan

Kansas City. No Kings.

Leave the leaves AND sticks. That brown bit? This Anise Swallowtail butterfly origami’d out of that. Then pumped fluid into their shrunken rumpled wings, and voila! 🦋 🌱 Leave the sticks and leaves! 🍂🍁

The most dangerous form of government is theocracy.  Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

Whatever version of me that used to prep and plan ahead well enough to bake multiple things and put them in the freezer and then clean up afterward all in the same day has left the planet. I made bread today. Might clean up sometime in late May-early June.

So I guess it’s the Democrats + Marjorie Taylor Greene out here fighting for Americans. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Truth is, I'm asking an awful lot of this dark chocolate right now...

On top of ripping away Americans' health care, Donald Trump is using this shutdown to hurt federal workers. Federal workers like this one, who told me her story after being needlessly fired earlier this year, deserve so much better.

Pretty sure every stink bug in the state is at my house. Uninvited, I might add.

Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick. Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

Matthew 15:29-31: And great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and they put them at his feet, and he healed them after verifying their citizenship status.

In other news I have also shut down because I am underfunded

Um, cutting the string burns calories.

Yup. There will def be agent provocateurs. Don't pick up the bricks, folks. Also, PPB has said ICE thugs in uniforms have been the ones instigating this whole time. They want to stoke any activity they can false label as an "insurrection". We can't play into their hand.

Bill signing of the new DC elite-drawn Missouri congressional map that no actual Missouri voters here want just gets us closer to the Missouri Supreme Court striking down the map and voters overturning it at the ballot box. We’re in the second quarter of this battle.

I ordered sesame chicken and it came without sesame seeds sprinkled on top so I think it's just Chicken™️.

I don't believe in a rapture but I do say "Jesus, come get me" at least twice a day now. We are not the same.

It was pouring down rain this morning so I did not, in fact, put some clothes out on the driveway like I had so wickedly planned to. Hrmph. 😤 #notraptured

It's weird how Tylenol caused autism (first diagnosed in 1943) before it was even invented (1955). What a clever drug.

Today's inspiration to rage clean brought to you courtesy of Art History.

Apparently, the testimony of 40 minors was not enough to convince then U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta (later a Trump appointee) to prosecute Jeffrey Epstein. This is one of the biggest cover-ups of our generation. @oversightdemocrats.house.gov won't stop until the truth comes to light.
