May Day will be a nationwide day of economic disruption, as we flex our collective power to demand an end to the oligarch-enabled Trump regime. The central action will be to engage in little-to-no economic activity on May 1 — that means no work, no school, and no shopping: maydaystrong.org

one maddening thing about all of this is the conservative idea that "election day" has always meant a single day until recently, which is nonsense. 19th century elections often took place over the course of an entire month, with results trickling out over time.

Starting the work now to prosecute and civilly sue ICE for its abuses as soon as the Trump presidency ends and they lose federal protection. Others should follow this lead. Lay the basis to hit the ground running on accountability, on all the many crimes and abuses imposed by the Trump regime.

Yay for Yarmouth Lobsters, and #MakeAmericaThinkAgain! #Organize #Resist #Oppose #NonViolenceIsPower #EveryEffortCounts

Not once does this story mention that offering a federal job in exchange for a political favor is a crime

6 months before bombing Iran and closing the Strait of Hormuz, the Trump admin fired the State Dept. oil and gas experts. The people who modeled exactly this scenario. The ones with contacts at Gulf energy ministries. Now nobody knows who to call. You can't make this up.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did on J6 🩸🩸🩸 THIS IS WHAT AN INSURRECTION LOOKS LIKE ⬇️⬇️⬇️

🚨 IT'S ELECTION DAY 🚨 This is it. Today decides everything. Let's make it count: Knock doors, make calls, talk to your friends, and make sure everyone you know in IL-09 makes their voice heard!

I keep seeing far-right twenty-something grifters online spout the tired sexist line that women never invented anything. That's bullshit to begin with, but it's especially laughable from people using *computer technology.* Uh, women are central to that history.

🧊✈️ SEATTLE: Women in chains descend in driving rain from an ICE-chartered Eastern 737 (tail: N917XA) at Boeing Field 👀

Headlines: 3 cargo ships have been attacked. The Strait of Hormuz remains choked off. Reports of some Iranian oil getting through to China. GCC slowing down oil production due to lack of storage. Gas prices have gone up for 11 straight days. Donald Trump is a pedophile.

Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.

Pretty wild to admit that your business model doesn’t work if you’re not allowed to do human trafficking

we’ve had two truly enormous crises under Trump and the first one was covid which everyone apparently gave him a pass for despite the fact that he made it worse but this one is completely, obviously, unquestionably his fault and would not have happened without him

The real damage comes years later, with elevated cancer rates, leukemia clusters, respiratory disease, cardiovascular failure, neurological damage, reproductive issues. This is chemical warfare, with delayed carnage. Worse than radiation sickness. I am ashamed to be American today. 2/2

This is the cloud of oil currently hovering over Tehran, released when the US bombed the city's oil depots. A stew of particulate matter, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, benzene, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, heavy metals & volatile organic compounds is raining down into the city right now. 1/2

Strongly suspect that as this war and its negative effects escalate, we're gonna see a massive increase in disinfo and unsourced "news" - starting right the hell now. PLEASE don't share "breaking" news from rando or disreputable accounts who provide no links.

The location of the plaque that was just hung, is in a place that it will not be visible to the public. While I am thankful for this first step, our lawsuit continues until they plaque is hung in accordance with the law.

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

“America has been at war for nearly a week, but the president who started the war can’t explain why,” Adam Serwer argues:

In today's edition of Morning Memo: ~Jeanine Pirro tried to mount a prosecution over a MAGA fever dream, but ... “Investigators were never quite clear what crime, if any, had been committed by the Biden administration’s use of the autopen,” the NYT reports. talkingpointsmemo.com/morning-memo...

This war isn’t an emergency that requires us to give the president more latitude. It’s a monstrosity that requires that judges, lawmakers and above all citizens work to preserve the integrity of elections and the republic.

Yes. zeteo.com/p/is-this-th...

That’s a lot.

Walz to Nancy Mace: "Minnesota ranks at the top. Where do South Carolina children rank on healthiness? I'm not here to be your prop."

We don't simply need to abolish ICE. We need to treat its agents the way the SS agents were treated at the end of the Holocaust. Crimes against humanity must be aired in the light of day and publicly punished. Give justice to the victims of these monsters.

CIA working to arm Kurdish forces to spark uprising in Iran. I feel like I’ve seen this movie before. What is Trump getting us into 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ www.cnn.com/2026/03/03/p...

"In Iran, the destruction and general illegality is the point: This administration wants to drop a shitload of bombs, to kill a foreign leader, to destabilize a foreign nation, if not an entire region simply because it can—and because no one can stop them." newrepublic.com/article/2071...

They are literally trying to convince you that starting a war is ending a war.

Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."

Um, wasn’t this the antiwar president? How many times did Trump say, from 2015 forward, that he was against all these wars? Back in 2016, that it was Hillary Clinton, not him, who was the warmonger. That he was smarter than that. trib.al/VHs6WZp

For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory.

events really pushed this off the page today but I wrote about the public pressure building against concentration camps newrepublic.com/post/207116/...

Now THIS is how you write a headline.

Are you even watching what’s happening right now? Don’t talk about Biden’s dementia when Trump’s is right fucking there. Don’t talk about Kamala’s Gaza, when Israel and Trump just bombed babies in Iran. And Trump’s building a fucking resort on the bodies of Palestinians, ffs. You’re a damn zombie.

Just for posterity’s sake: starting a war without congressional approval is an impeachable offense.

Republicans go on and on about mass deportations, but never mention that the private prison companies contracted with ICE corruptly donated to both Trump's campaign and the lawmakers who voted to fund them.

I don’t understand how Iran is now supposedly a week away from a nuke again after Trump said a few months ago that we “completely obliterated” their program & set them back years. When reporters suggested that it might not all be destroyed he accused them of attacking the pilots.

The President isn't fooling most Americans: he is actively making life in this country more expensive.

Rep. Ilhan Omar: "The president talked about protecting Americans, and I just had to remind him that his administration was responsible for killing two of my constituents."

Trump's stole money from millions of Americans and refuses to give it back.

The best Twitter riposte of the day is a community note.

"SLOPPINESS": The Trump administration claimed that a man detained by ICE had a criminal convictions for marijuana possession in 2009. The judge pointed out that the man was 4 years old at the time. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: Trump made the so-called SAVE America Act central to his State of the Union. Voting rights advocates say it’s “voter suppression, plain and simple.”

True to form, Trump flooded the zone: the longest ever SOTU was filled w/self-congratulations & minute after minute of claims that simply weren't true But the facts are on our side: Our 250+ legal actions defend what Trump refuses to: a democracy that works for everyone -TN

This may be the best SOTU response in...ever? Nailing all the right points: affordability, ICE abuses, corruption, Epstein. Not sure it matters, but Spanberger is providing Dems a good template for assailing Trump and offering alternative values and policies.
