WIC used to have bipartisan support because even Republicans said "Well of course we want to make sure pregnant women and babies have enough to eat, we're not monsters," but now they say "Screw those freeloading babies, we've got a gold-plated ballroom to build"

"The United States was not, in fact, founded on Christian principles, in any sense. It's simply not true." Timothy Snyder

California Your primary election for Governor is in 20 days !! Talk to your friends, family, and coworkers NOW So much at stake Don't let Steve Hilton get on the ballot ! "REPUBLICANS ONLY HOLD POWER BECAUSE WE LET THEM" I support @xavierbecerra.bsky.social It should be Becerra & Steyer

You have a large quantity of people saying that people shouldn't be allowed to buy soda or other snacks on Snap benefits. I'm much less worried about what people on snap benefits spend their money on than I am with billionaires buying children on islands for their pleasure. #USDemocracy

How can he possibly stay safe without a ballroom?

I defeated Trump and his allies more than 60 times in court when he tried to steal the 2020 election. When Trump sued me for RICO in 2022, I didn't settle. I fought and won. He and the GOP hate me because I fight. They fear me because I win.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Patriotism isn’t writing blank checks for endless war. Patriotism is keeping your neighbors alive with affordable care. Trump & Hegseth are failing that basic test at a cost of $200,000,000,000. #HealthcareNotWarfare

They tell us “there’s no money” for universal coverage, cheaper drugs, or rural hospitals. Then Trump and Hegseth find $200B for war with Iran. This isn’t about resources. It’s about priorities. #HealthcareNotWarfare

In 1933, Justice Louis Brandeis said: “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.” What he said was true 93 years ago. It’s even more accurate today. Let us choose democracy over oligarchy.

Which is the backwards country now, United States?

KELLOGG: Ukrainians fought brilliantly, lost only 1% of land since 2014. You’ve got to give them full credit for what they’ve done. Russians not winning this war, they’re losing. Putin faces huge economic problems, suffered 1.2 to 1.4 million casualties, not going to get Donbas.

Why does Trump keep doing public events in places that don’t have $400 million ballrooms?

Due to Trump's big ugly bill, the richest New Yorkers will collectively get a $12B federal tax cut in 2026. Meanwhile, over 1 million New Yorkers could lose healthcare and SNAP benefits. Gov. Hochul & other states can fight Trump's trickle down scam by taxing the rich — who will still be rich.

Pete Kegsbreath claims the Iran war has cost $25 billion — that’s a lie. It has actually cost every American family roughly $765, not including all the related price hikes.

TWO DOZEN women took the risk of publicly telling their stories of Trump sexually assaulting them, knowing that doing so would probably ruin their lives. For every one who did that, there had to be, what - 20? 50? 100? - he did it to, but who made the very reasonable decision not to go public.

Since Trump is out here denying he is a rapist, a reminder that a judge said he absolutely was one

Today, we honor and remember Virginia Roberts Giuffre on the one-year anniversary of her passing. Her courage has allowed countless survivors to be seen, heard, and to be believed. Sending love to her family on this difficult day—and to all the survivors out there still on this journey for justice.❤️

✨ SUPER SUNDAY PARTY ✨ Trump is what happened when we DIDN'T all rally behind the same candidate.. Let's not make that mistake again. No matter who the candidates are in the midterms: vote blue 🗳️ No matter who's the candidate in 2028... VOTE BLUE 💙 Need a boost? Spots left for tonight's pack 👇🏼🤚🏼

NEWS: Bette Midler just released a new music video for her remake of "All You Fascists Bound to Lose"—featuring Barbara Hershey, other celebrities, and crowds from the No Kings protests in a joyful, powerful show of resistance. You have to see this.

Didn't bend, didn't cower, didn't even feel the need to stand next to Trump grinning awkwardly like it was normal. And now he's emerged unscathed with his job and his dignity intact and his reputation even stronger than before. Huh. Seems like this could be a model for others in power.

... but any remaining sense of self-control. "Everyone around him can see it. Yet, whether from ambition, cowardice, or weary acceptance, they keep looking for ways to rationalize his behavior. The tragedy is no longer Trump’s. It is now America’s."

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

Taxes should designed to be antibodies to the disease of billionaires.

Who else agrees Biden was—without a doubt—a better president than Trump could ever be? #VoteYesVirginia

Rep. Ted Yoho cannot argue his POV with logic, knowledge, expertise, or respect. He has none of these qualities – so he resorts to ad hominem attacks. Ted Yoho is intimidated by strong women. Ted Yoho is intimidated by intelligence. Ted Yoho is intimidated by empathy.

Amazing! This is the line to get into Peter Buttigieg’s town hall in Tulsa tonight.

Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

The parallels between Trump and George III are omnipresent and ominous.

For the good of the nation and the world, it’s time we face the reality: The most powerful man in the world does not have the mental capacity to do the job. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/hes-losing-all-his-marbles

"[Trump's] not really a Christian of any sort because he represents and does everything we tell our children not to do. To be selfish, to have a lack of empathy, to hurt people without remorse, to steal, to lie, to rape. He's a bad man. So it isn't surprising that he has a problem with the Pope."

Donald Trump is profoundly unfit for office. He's a quintessential example of a Dark Tetrad (combo of 4 pathologies – psychopathy, narcissism, Machiavellianism, and sadism). Moreover, he's an ongoing, decades-long drug abuser (cocaine, Adderall) who also has significant and progressing dementia.

⚡️Ukraine will unite with Europe's security system — or Europe will become part of Russia, Zelensky says. President Volodymyr Zelensky praised Ukraine's defense industry and its importance to European security in an address on April 13.

Peter Magyar said Ukraine is the victim of the war and emphasized that no one has the right to dictate the terms of peace. He reaffirmed that Kyiv must decide the conditions of any future settlement. #Hungary

What was Trump focused on today? Building a giant triumphal arch in DC then jetting out of town for a high dollar fundraiser and golf.

Saw this and my god it is sadly, dead accurate

"The whole point was supposed to be regime change; we've gone from Khamenei to Khamenei... At home, we've had 13 service members die, 400 wounded, it's cost tens of billions that should've gone to domestic priorities, the cost of gas is surging. Any way you cut this, unmitigated disaster."

It’s TACO Tuesday!

Amazon reportedly failed to create any new jobs at its HQ2 in Virginia last year, despite millions of state tax incentives. The company has cut 30,000 jobs since last October — while saving $4 billion in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill. Trickle-down economics is a hoax.

Trump is asking Congress for even more money for war, offset by billions in cuts to domestic and social safety-net programs. It makes this 1970s anti-war PSA all the more relevant today.

French President Macron offers blunt advice publicly to US President Trump: "You have to be serious. When you want to be serious, you don't say the opposite every day of what you said the day before. And perhaps you shouldn't talk every day." www.france24.com/en/macron-sa...

Yes, we can. The moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; and those who are in shadows of life, the sick, the needy, and the handicapped.” ― Hubert H. Humphrey
