As the federal government fails millions of Americans, state lawmakers are taking action to improve lives. talkingpointsmemo.com/cafe/state-l...

NEW: SCOTUS will hear arguments Monday on Trump’s attempt to fire the last Democratic FTC commissioner. A ruling for the president could dangerously expand his control over agencies regulating the economy, stock market, campaign finance and communications.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!! No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

Where do you stand? You can want solutions for the unhoused, you can want safer cities, but you can also be dead set against federalizing them and against military occupation. I stand with DC!

I found the exact moment the bells began to ring from all the churches and you can tell they’re not the standard recorded chimes.

Such a high-energy, multigenerational, racially/ethnically diverse, & mutually supportive group of protesters today! FREE DC!

Declaring war on an American city is the very definition of treason.

Cutting millions from mental health programs and closing the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, while blaming gun violence on mental health only distracts from the real problem: Easy access to guns.

As our MD Governor says, if you seriously want to prevent crime, invest in our communities. Don't send in the National Guard. Their presence chases everyone away, including tourists and patrons of business establishments throughout the city.

Governor Wes Moore can end Maryland's contract with Avelo Airlines, so he needs to do it. Avelo takes money to enable ICE's evil, and we're not letting that fly at BWI. #AveloOutofBWI #MDIndivisible Sign the petition here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/go...

Evil doesn’t fly in Maryland. Avelo Airlines is an ICE deportation contractor. Gov. Moore can & must revoke MD’s contract with Avelo - easily + legally. Sign the petition: https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/governor-moore-kick-deportation-airlines-out-of-bwi #AveloOutOfBWI #GroundICE #StopAveloNow

Protesting at BWI to kick Avelo Airlines out of BEI & MD. Contracts with ICE are bad for business! People over profits! #AveloOutofBWI

On Aug 22 Hegseth armed National Guard troops in D.C. The streets are calm, no emergency. Now the military patrols our capitol with loaded weapons. One misunderstanding, one refusal to move and civilians can be legally killed. This is manufactured risk. It's submission through power. #Resist

We lowered the standards to become president of the US. So naturally the standards to be hired as ICE and FBI agents, as well as our military, were lowered. Degrees, training, and age limits have been relaxed. Focus on domestic terrorism and threats to democracy gone‼️ #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

It’s time to wake up - we are literally on the verge of losing our democracy if Donald Trump cheats his way to those seats in Texas.

When I first started working at the Senate Budget Committee, Bill was chief economist on the Republican staff, under Jeff Sessions. He spent 15 years at Heritage and 3 years at Mercatus. Bill is a Republican for life. His unequivocally raising the alarm speaks to the badness of today’s firing.

Even some of Trump's biggest media supporters are turning on him over the Epstein cover-up. app.sosha.ai/s/VzbmaKRF

He killed my brother when he planned and executed an insurrection.

8-month-old Anderson Garcia Cabrera Jr. was senselessly killed by a stray bullet at a festival in Utah on Father’s Day. Police say the shooting—which also left two other people dead—stemmed from an argument. Gun violence is the leading killer of children in America. We don’t have to live like this.

We're still 2.5 weeks out from #NoKings and we are at *1200* events scheduled nationwide (and also in Canada and Europe). Trump wants a nice military parade for his birthday. We're going to make sure all he sees are photos of a much larger turnout of Americans telling him to fuck off.

We’re just TWO WEEKS OUT from #WearOrange Weekend, June 6-8! Have you: 🍊 Found the PERFECT orange outfit? Shop here: etwn.us/WOMerch25_FB 🍊 Found a Wear Orange Weekend event near you? Text ORANGE to 644-33!

Another strong #Indivisible turnout on I-95 in Maryland, with a message of #NoKingsInAmerica 👊🏼🇺🇲

Trump is defying the courts and ignoring the Constitution while he and his friends get even richer. That means No Kings Day needs to be our biggest and most widespread day of protest yet. There are over 1,000 events planned in all 50 states on June 14. Please join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Chutzpah is lying to dodge the draft and then asking the Army to celebrate your damn birthday.

Thank you to all of the senators, representatives, and journalists who are sharing the stories of RIF’d employees 💙

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

If your senator is breaking filibuster records, flying to El Salvador in defense of their constituents, or putting holds on every damned Trump nominee, celebrate them now. Show them they have support. If your senator isn't doing any of that - ask them why not.

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.

A protest a day keeps the fascists at bay!

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

JUST IN: Judge finds 'probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations

WSJ Editorial page welcome to the resistance?

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

Raskin was on fire at the DC Hands Off! protest today!
