This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Many media outlets hid the full truth of Trump -- his background in organized crime, his Epstein ties -- out of fear, only to be obliterated by him in the end. Had they not self-censored then, they might not be state-censored now. When you hide the truth, you face the consequences.

I THREW THE SANDWICH But I did not throw the panini

Someone else said this, so can't take credit. "DC, right now."

They finally made the milk from that hotel

Well this only took me two hours 🥴

“What Senator Alex Padilla did today was political theater.” --Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater

We feed you. They hunt us.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is ousting all members of a key CDC vaccination advisory committee and replacing them with his own picks. The move appears to contradict a pledge he made during his confirmation process.

I took this pic. We will not back down. Thank you @murray.senate.gov for your continued support!

reputable medical journals keep saying that RFK and his pro-disease friends are full of shit and so naturally they must be shunned www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

*Everyone* at every income level benefits from Medicaid – and if these cuts pass, we all lose. The Senate votes soon on $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid, our #MedicaidMinute explores what’s at risk for people across the US, particularly middle-class families and rural communities. #ProtectMedicaid

This would hurt so many kids and their families. www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

What a grim paragraph www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

But not Elon….

Things are getting weird.

How does a person have this in their bio, and then post memes like this?

Over on Threads I went semi-viral and got picked up by OverheardWashington and my family was not impressed.

Love the Fox take:

me reading national security secrets bc i've been accidentally added to a group chat

All you need to know about Twitter

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all our new supporters! Tomorrow, there will be more of us!

Well this is petty. I'm sure it's totally unrelated to Gov. Mills telling him to pound sand. www.huffpost.com/entry/maine-...

Let this sink in.

Nearly 22% of moms report struggling with mental health, and half of those diagnosed with perinatal depression don’t get the care they need. That has to change. This Women’s History Month, we’re celebrating the women leading the fight for maternal mental health: bit.ly/43lR5jU

Just read this graf. Share it with people you know who don’t pay attention to politics or news.

This is evil. Pure evil.

TL;DR: 45% of women who voted Trump, you poor fools.

NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. https://propub.li/43487Tj

Yesterday ~68 people employed in HHS's Administration for Children & Families early childhood offices were terminated. I'm told Office of Head Start lost ~20% of staff; Office of Child Care lost ~25% These workers process grants for preschools/childcare centers, monitor health/safety issues, etc.

the richest man in the world has decided that your kids don't deserve special education programs

after the overturning of roe, black infant mortality has spiked nearly 11% in states with abortion bans: www.reuters.com/world/us/inf...

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Staffers at the nation’s cybersecurity agency whose job is to ensure the security of U.S. elections have been placed on administrative leave, jeopardizing critical support provided to state and local election offices across the country.

Does anyone remember the movie Entrapment, with Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta Jones? All they needed to do, to skim off a few pennies of every global banking transaction, was access the code for a few minutes. I think about that right now.

Mm hmmm

True.

DYK? The infant mortality rate for Black women in the United States is more than twice as high as the rate for White women. It sure would be nice if things were more... equitable and everyone had the same access to health insurance, and care.

DYK? More than half of babies in the United States are children of color.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Yes, USAID could use reform, but this is demolition. Trump braids together cruelty, ignorance and shortsightedness, and calls it policy, as the world's richest men go after the worlds poorest children. My column: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/o...

Medicaid is a lifeline for people with complex medical needs & disabilities – it covers therapy, medical equipment, and care at home instead of institutions. Join us: call 202-224-3121 to tell Congress #HandsOffOurMedicaid – don't cut our kids' lifeline to cover GOP tax breaks for the rich!

A week after the supposedly withdrawn OMB funding freeze, Head Start programs in Washington State still can't get paid. Some may be forced to shut down if their access to federal funds isn't restored soon. www.kuow.org/stories/some...

Elon Musk has shared this fake E! News video on X, which claims USAID has paid millions to Hollywood celebrities to visit Ukraine. The clip, now community noted, is the work of a well-known Russian disinformation campaign that creates fake videos of news outlets to push anti-Ukrainian narratives.

Another great piece by @jackiemader.bsky.social hechingerreport.org/1-in-5-child... So many unintended consequences... or maybe intended... who even knows at this point.
