Liam is home now and we are grateful to @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social for traveling to Minneapolis with him and his dad. Welcome home Liam ❤️❤️

so if you think this is in anyway right or ethical, go fuck yourself

Hey friends, I just found out that tomorrow's my last day at the Center for American Progress and will be looking for Sr Designer / Assoc Creative Director roles if you see any. It's a little tough financially at home as the only breadwinner, but if you can spare it, feel free to buy us a coffee ⬇️

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Mayor Jacob Frey: “To ICE, get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

Congress do something, DO SOMETHING!! DO SOMETHING????

Folks, I used to wonder why Charlie Brown never wised up whenever Lucy set up the football for him, and then I saw the 119th United States Congress.

Whatever happens now, we absolutely cannot allow Trump's refusal to seek Congressional authorization for what appears to be a large scale military attack on another country vanish from the media discussion, which already appears to be happening.

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York) joined a public swearing-in ceremony for Zohran Mamdani. “We will govern expansively and audaciously ... never will we be accused of lacking the courage to try,” Mamdani said.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, Mr. Mayor, what is your plan to save the New York Mets ?

The Holdovers (2023) ❄️

NORAD Santa tracker is Woke

You do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to the Supreme Court

support independent media. idk what else to say right now.

The run that Rob Reiner went on between 1984 and 1992 is one of the most amazing hot streaks any director has ever had. Legendary stuff

what the hell is going on with the Mets

lol okay....

For @warnock.senate.gov, restoring the American dream is about more than economics—it is a spiritual undertaking that will help unite a divided country. Join us to hear directly from Sen. Warnock on Thursday, December 11. ampr.gs/4pdh2KD

When I have questions about the economy (which happens a lot) I look to @kennedyandara.bsky.social. You should too! Check out her piece with @saraestep.bsky.social

why would anyone try to make a humanoid robot when you could try to make TARS instead

:,) I love my city so much 🗽

AI companies: Give us your electricity so we can steal your jobs.

As American families struggle with rising costs, President Trump and members of his family are raking in millions of dollars—and the number is only growing. Check out our new tracker to see how Trump is using the office of the presidency to his financial benefit: https://ampr.gs/47nd5eE

Quick 🧵: SCOTUS has set a conference date for the Davis petition, which has sent some folks into a panic. This is a date for them to 'consider whether to consider' the case. This is not an argument date. They have not decided to grant the petition. (1/3)

The evidence is clear: Donald Trump's politically-motivated Justice Department is LYING to federal judges. That changes the way our courts work. Read more: www.americanprogress.org/article/does...

Samuel Alito preparing to raise absolutely the craziest flag you've ever seen at his Long Beach Island compound.

Rallying at SCOTUS ahead of today’s arguments in Louisiana v. Callais on the constitutionality of the Voting Rights Act.

All I can think about is that scene in Knives Out about the grandson: "My son Jacob, he's 16, very politically active." "The boy is literally a Nazi."

As both Chicago and Portland fight against Trump's deployment of the National Guard, learn more about the Insurrection Act and the history of domestic deployment from @thedailyhayley.bsky.social, @sydkneeb.bsky.social, and @doo-dc.bsky.social:

Stephen Miller and co. want you to think otherwise but there *are* limits on presidential power re: domestic deployment of the military. But those powers are vast. More on those complexities, from me, @thedailyhayley.bsky.social and @doo-dc.bsky.social www.americanprogress.org/article/dome...

US public health is in crisis. In this special JHPPL issue edited by @oberlanderunc.bsky.social & @sarahgollust.bsky.social, you’ll find articles that help contextualize the erosion of public health infrastructure & adoption of policies harmful to public health. read.dukeupress.edu/jhppl/advanc...

It's jarring for Miller to admit they want plenary authority but this isn't new. They've been trying to do this since jan 20. And the co-branches are letting them! Congress relegated their checks and balances via their inaction and SCOTUS has given the greenlight. why does no one have a backbone?!

📌 Historic fascists with plenary authority: • Hitler • Mussolini • Stalin Plenary authority or plenary powers: Absolute and without limitations.

"This time around, the obvious incompetence of many top officials actually works to keep any sustained pressure off of any one cabinet secretary or agency head." when your whole group gives bad vibes 😍

My Reddit AMA (ask me anything) on CAP's plan to break Citizens United starts at 11:30am ET! See you in r/politics!

Time to tune-in to SCOTUS's oral argument audio because today is Chiles v. Salazar; a case about Colorado's ban on conversion "therapy" for minors. More than 20 states have similar bans--which fall under state powers to regulate medical care. www.supremecourt.gov/oral_argumen...

Today is the first day of the 2025-2026 Supreme Court term and we just released our major new report on religion at the Roberts Court: www.americanprogress.org/article/how-...

SCOTUS has been hacking away at the separation of church and state. This is the legacy of the Roberts Court. More from @thedailyhayley.bsky.social and I on that for @americanprogress.bsky.social, here: www.americanprogress.org/article/how-...

"The fact is, the Roberts Court is no longer hiding behind a veneer of impartiality." SCOTUS will continue dismantling democratic guardrails and civil rights protections this term. CAP's Devon Ombres explains for Inside Sources: https://ow.ly/U3W950X5Ci6

"This past July, his name landed in the news when Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders signed onto a boycott of his Washington restaurants, where a local union is trying to organize workers. Mr. Starr declined to comment."

Can I be honest? I don’t LOVE this.

democrats can now reach young men by telling them that trump wants to take away their naruto and their one piece

Sometimes they say the quiet part. Here, re. the specious “originalist” approach. You don’t need to bother with pesky, inconvenient things like precedent. Just whatever you imagine to be the “original intent” of the documents — which, of course, will always justify what you wanted to do all along.

The Trump administration is trying to hold a DACA recipient and activist in immigration detention indefinitely, even after a judge dismissed her case. Read my latest for @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/09/29/t...
