I knew it! 🤭

It was great joining @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @ginafortexas.bsky.social today in Texas. They're working hard to make a difference in the lives of all Texans, and will be able to do even more as your next Senator and Governor. Let’s get it done, Texas!

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

Exclusive: Earlier this spring, a mysterious explosion blew up a car carrying an alleged cartel operative in broad daylight. It was a targeted assassination facilitated by CIA ops officers on the ground. More here on a deadly US campaign that's gone largely unnoticed: www.cnn.com/2026/05/12/p...

An old phone booth I ran across in the UK a couple of years ago. What a great example of recycling. #librarians #recycling

Democrats should ensure that voters hear this so much it haunts their dreams this fall.

While millions of Americans struggle to afford soaring gas prices due to Trump’s war on Iran, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is focused on releasing a road trip reality tv show. The trip was sponsored by corporations that his department regulates, including Boeing, Toyota, and Shell. Hello?

Which is the backwards country now, United States?

Activists in NYC projected a message on the side of Jeff Bezos’ $120 million penthouse ahead of the Met Gala. “Shame on you, Jeff Bezos.”

Happy Heavenly Mother’s Day to all of the amazing moms in our lives who have passed, but whose presence made us better people. 🌸

Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate. 🩷

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.

ABC: A CDC official said the federal government doesn't plan to have the repatriated American cruise ship passengers quarantine upon arrival in Nebraska.

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

In the same way Donald Trump publicly asked Russia and China to interfere for him in two elections, he told his GOP minions to rig the 2026 midterms. Now they have. Obviously all of us still *must* vote. But we also need to ask ourselves how we will react if this rigging works.

A tremendous relief.

it's almost like they were never actually pro-life, just pro-birth. the cruelty is the whole point.

Pregnancy-related deaths went up 56% after abortions were banned in Texas. 88% of those were preventable. MAGA is screeching about California giving new parents free diapers. Tell me again how these people are pro-life and care about women. 🙄

Victor Orbán had the maps drawn, the media singing, the courts stacked, Trump’s moronic blessing, and JD knocking doors for him — AND THE Hungarian ppl by the millions, handed him a one-way ticket home. Though November cannot come soon enough, it IS only six months away. WE CAN DO THIS. 🖕VA SC

Actually, he has being a Republican down pat.

www.nbcnews.com/business/ene... DOJ and the country’s top commodity market regulator are investigating a series of oil market trades just ahead of major policy announcements from Trump and Iranian officials. At least four oil trades resulted in a total of more than $2.6 billion for the traders.

Donald Trump sparked outrage after warning that without a ceasefire there would be “one big glow coming out of Iran,” remarks widely interpreted as a nuclear threat. Critics warn such rhetoric normalizes catastrophic escalation and further destabilizes an already volatile global security order.

tRump’s DOJ just scrapped a 99-year ban, pushing USPS to mail HANDGUNS like Amazon packages — unloaded, but still no background checks at drop-off. Traffickers & felons get easy delivery. Postal workers become targets. CA AG & 22 Dem states call it a “dangerous loophole.” mcsp.short.gy/Fxy4

Handguns could be mailed through the U.S. Postal Service for the first time in nearly 100 years if a proposed rule under the Trump administration takes effect. Democratic attorneys general in two dozen states sent a letter this week in opposition. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

The Trump administration's cancellation of more than $100M in humanities grants to scholars, writers, research groups and other organizations was unconstitutional, and DOGE had no authority to end the funding, a federal judge in New York ruled on Thursday. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Absolutely ridiculous. According to a report this morning from MS NOW, the FBI has opened a criminal investigation focusing on my Atlantic colleague Sarah Fitzpatrick, related to an article she published last month about Director Kash Patel.

I really want a Democratic Party that goes on offense instead of reactionary defense. I want big plans. Sweeping changes of liberty and equity. Durable permanent changes. And consequences with teeth. Tell us the plan. Big plan. Make it a whole meal.
