Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen and others were tackled by security, then dragged out of today’s HHS budget hearing. RFK Jr’s response was to snicker.

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the *appearance* of corruption promotes corruption.

She never should have been arrested, and they know that!

Exclusive: Immigrants falsely labeled dead by the Social Security Administration are showing up at field offices with documents proving they are alive, leading staff to reinstate nearly three dozen people over the past week, according to records obtained by The Post.

It's great day for a Revolution! ✊️✊️✊️ On this day, April 19, 1861, the first real blood of the American Civil War was spilled when a mob in Baltimore attacked troops of the Massachusetts army.

We have two Supreme Court Justices—Thomas & Alito—who have come out of the closet about their contempt for the Constitution.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

History always has a lesson.

My family got these payments when my dad died at 34 years old after serving in the Navy for a decade from what he had paid in. I was five. Jeanine is an incurious ignoramus. Thanks @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for correcting her, which is God’s work.

Paying an extortionist -- where do you think it ends? Do you think he honors his side of the supposed "deal"? Really? Meanwhile, as Big Law ill-advisedly pays the protection racket, there's a huge need for lawyers to help regular people Trump is illegally targeting: www.cm-life.com/article/2025...

As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants. So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House. The hypocrisy is outrageous.

Crockett: It has taken Texas’ largest measles outbreak in 30 years with more than 500 confirmed cases and the deaths of two children for the secretary of health and human services to say what we already knew. The most effective way to prevent the spread of measles is the vaccin

If you watched the Oval Office, Trump targeted two individuals whose only offense was saying the truth. Then he targeted a law firm because it sued FoxNews. It ended with him totaling the money Big Law firms that have capitulated owe him in pro bono. We cannot give up. We must all commit to fight.

Funded by the US taxpayer.

Hiring your brother is the original affirmative action for white people.

For those of you asking why Pete Hegseth has a Russian email address: It's so he can log into Signal.

Chris Murphy: "There has to be criminal investigations as well here. If the criminal code doesn't apply to powerful people, if it only applies to people without power, then we don't have rule of law in this country."

Pulling Stefanik nom is a sign of GOP panic. If they think her R+20 district would be in play were she to leave, they realize they are in deep political peril re: 2026. As they are.

Thank you, President Trump! Our long national nightmare of accurate weather forecasts is coming to an end! “There’s no question it will lead to errors. It’s just a matter of how bad will it be... We know these things help with forecasts, so why are we cutting them?” www.nbcnews.com/science/scie...

Just remember all this if there is a catastrophic intelligence failure under this administration. Because they will *immediately* try to crush dissent and offload blame.

This is the first of what I think are going to be A LOT of primary challenges along these lines.

Lawson: Social Security works… And you know why? Because Wall Street doesn't get a piece of it. Because we don't let the billionaires reach their greedy little into it and that's why they hate it

JUST IN: Judge Hollander has issued a *second* letter today warning Social Security acting commissioner Dudek not to shut down all operations over her order barring DOGE's access to sensitive systems. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

From Colorado to Maryland, Democrats, too, have faced fired-up crowds this week who want them to step up their fight against President Trump.

NEW: Judge Boasberg says he'll give DOJ one more day to produce the information he asked for by noon, "although their grounds for such request at first blush are not persuasive" storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The stock market is still crashing, housing and rent prices are still rising, grocery costs are still surging, but good news -- the populist champions in the GOP are focused on issues that matter most:

The world hates Donold and Elon. Imagine being so despicable you piss off an entire planet. That used to only happen on Star Trek.

BREAKING: Republican State Senator Justin Eichorn has been arrested for soliciting a minor for prostitution, after filming a self-righteous video accusing Democrats of dubious acts. The Minnesota GOP has asked him to step down. Life comes at you fast.

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more. Taking back our power starts now.

Modified it and added CVS last night. Look back at my posts about CVS a few days ago. I talked with them. They are holding fast against all of this mess. Check out my post about their top leadership in the corporate; repost it. Definitely shop CVS! Costco, eBay and CVS get all of my shopping now.

Israel just killed hundreds of Palestinians, including kids. The US just killed dozens of Yemenis, including kids. "Why do they hate us?" asks the American public, blissfully ignorant of what's being done in its name in the Middle East by the US and its ally Israel. Sigh.

Dictator shit

The FBI is trying to criminalize Habitat for Humanity for receiving climate grants from the EPA. Yes, the nonprofit that builds houses for low-income people. This clearly demonstrates just how absurd and extreme the Trump regime has become. It's targeted harassment.

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

The State Department quietly terminated a contract that was in the process of transferring evidence of Russia’s abductions of Ukrainian children to law enforcement officials in Europe Trump, Rubio, and the Republican Party are covering up Russia’s genocide and war crimes for Putin and Russians 🤬

BREAKING—The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) office was just on lockdown for close to an hour while members of the DOGE team tried to enter the building, multiple people have told me. Security has now escorted out remaining staffers who’ve been told to telework until further notice.
