Virginia votes to redraw Congressional districts to favor demorcrats after Trump started an arms race. He got dummymandered www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Thanks so much, Sweet Sweet Sweet Virginia! A huge thanks to all of the thousands of volunteers who knocked on doors, called voters, and explained the importance of this vote to friends and neighbors. You are superheroes, true patriots, and saviors of democracy! youtu.be/4AGAlsz0rPU?...

just saw someone call Kash Patel “J Edgar Boozer” and need to lie down

Really proud of us at @wired.com for this. The work we did on DOGE is some of the work I am personally proudest of, and it's amazing to see that work and impact recognized. www.hillmanfoundation.org/hillman-priz...

Cat Distribution System strikes again

So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out

The worst human beings in the country should not be running the country.

they hate. This is eugenics. It can also be called the death march of medical freedom.

harms others. In the end I think we can assume that the administration really doesn’t care if 25% or more of the US population would disappear. After all this would primarily be the poor, the minorities, immigrants and the sick…anyone that the right sees as a burden, or use the social programs

healthy. But the truth is that today in the US there is no health security. The interest in the collective health of the nation is being swept aside by the anti-science, anti-vaccine medical freedom movement, where everyone, including soldiers, can do what ever they please no matter how much it

flu vaccines, millions of soldiers in WW1 were stricken or died from the flu. Their movements also helped spread it around the world, just as international travel would today. One may think that it would be in the interests of national security to do all that is possible to keep troops

William Hylton claims his son Conor received less urgent care than the family dog once did in an emergency. Now, the family is suing Milford hospital.

26 year-old Conor Hylton died in an ICU overseen remotely by a “teledoctor." His family is now suing the hospital for negligence. An on-site doctor did not visit Conor at all in the 4 hours after he was transferred to the ICU. hospital staff virtually spoke to a remote doctor.

Conor Hylton was declared dead via a "tele-health provider," rather than a person at the hospital, according to a lawsuit. His case seems to underscore the increasing number of patients who don't see an intensive care unit specialist in person, even in an emergency. https://cnn.it/4mltp6p

Ireland, 2026. These two photos were taken yesterday at the same location - Ballyogan recycling centre- within 20 metres of one another.

These men say not only was their boat destroyed but they were taken aboard, handcuffed, made to wear hoods, their phones were wiped of any photo evidence, and “US personnel boarded the fishing boat and stole the crew’s food and the beer.”

My statement regarding unfounded attacks and threats against my family and staff.

Tell HUD not to change its eligibility rules. HUD’s housing policy was designed to keep families together. If some family members were undocumented, they could live with documented family members in subsidized housing, while paying full rent. Trump is trying to end this and separate families.

A reminder that Don Jr.’s brother, Eric Trump, invoked the Fifth Amendment over 500 times in 2020 during his testimony in the New York Attorney General’s civil fraud investigation into Trump Org’s finances. His dad, Donald Trump, invoked the 5th more than 400 times during his deposition.

I am livid that people assume that everyone who still takes significant precautions must be having a great time. Some of us just understand the stakes and have lost too much to LC or other disabilities to FAAFO. Check in on your disabled friends. Host accessible masked events. You’re isolating US!

We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose. “They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a man in California wrote. (Published Dec. 2024)

This reads so Onion-esquely wrong that it sounds almost funny...and don't give me some "oral history" nonsense...this is part of normalizing total surveillance & possibly using every bit of real conversation as AI "training data"!

San Jose CA wants to bring more data centers online Residents have had almost no say The City already met with over 50 developers & has 36 projects in the works Sign the petition, send a letter before 4/21 deadline Show up at the 4/21 meeting if you can www.ilovesanjose.org

Letting them have the advanced Nvidia AI chips isn't enough? Does Witkoff need another cash injection?

Hungary’s PM-elect Peter Magyar says he would enact an ICC arrest warrant for Israeli PM Netanyahu and detain him on arrival. The election winner said Hungary would stay a member of the International Criminal Court which his predecessor Viktor Orban began withdrawing from last year.

I just found out that an AI scammer is impersonating me in their spam campaign. I am LIVID. Please, please share this post. Warn people. I’m horrified that someone might be ripped off in my name. No one is safe from being impersonated like this.

WATCH: Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available.

The fact there was a mass shooting with EIGHT dead today and it barely made the front page of any news site tells you everything you need to know how fucked up we are as a country. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/19/us/shreveport-mass-shooting-dead-children.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

Nevada's largest utility says it will need three times the electricity required to power Las Vegas just to handle proposed data centers — and it probably can't do that without fossil fuels. https://to.pbs.org/4c0Eh6n

Everything the Ellison family could own if Paramount buys Warner Bros: Paramount+ CBS CNN Showtime HBO Warner Bros TNT TBS MTV DC Studios Nickelodeon Comedy Central Cartoon Network And more... This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped. State AGs must step in and block it.

83 CA Hospitals Could Face Closure After Federal Medicaid Cuts, New Report Shows The analysis says financially strained hospitals face a greater risk after the "One Big Beautiful Bill" was signed by President Trump.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations: Alphabet: 8.01% AT&T: 4.6% Meta: 3.57% General Motors: 3.09% Amazon: 1.37% Exxon Mobil: 1.31% Disney: -1.57% CVS Health: -3.88% Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5% This is what a rigged system looks like.

Congresswoman Summer Lee grills RFK, Jr. on black maternal health. This health crisis in the U.S. is a persistent emergency where Black women are 2.5 to 3.5 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than White women, with rates up to 49.5 deaths per 100,000 live births.

There was a time when the president inspired pride instead of exhaustion. I miss that more than I can say.

CONTRAST: In 1975, I bought my first house -- 2 Bdrm, 1½ Bath, 1-step sunken Living Room -- and owned it for 34 years & with 60ft of yard space. Just NE of downtown L.A. on the TOP of a "hill." $39,000

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

🔥SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 BILLION— as he leads 🇺🇸 diplomacy + asks sheikhs for billions more… Never have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia taking corruption to spectacular new heights.”

Stupid, stupid, stupid This regime is so stupid How can anyone put up with the insanity, the lies, the constant drama, the disrespect, and the downright corruption Strike, strike, strike! Make the economy hurt from boycotting every tech company, every media company, etc #MayDayStrike

‘Quality of life’ isn’t a big house, luxury goods or a fancy car. It’s being able to cycle your kids on safe streets or run side by side down peaceful roads with your friends. Everyone can & should have this.

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #ONEV1 #DV1 For the children, this may be one joyous moment, but for the grown-ups, it’s a reminder. Let’s work NOW to defend the smiles. NYC children (& parents) are lucky to have a mayor committed to early childhood education.
