Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the Iranian people are not our enemy

Today, Michelle and I are proud to announce that we will be hosting the dedication ceremony for the Obama Presidential Center on June 18th in Chicago, and welcoming the public on June 19th. We can’t wait for you to visit. Go to obama.org to learn more.

In A DC lobby today when the news broke that Rambo Barbie was fired. The mood was definitely celebratory with people wondering who’s next to get the axe.

Spent the day at the Capitol with @momsaction.bsky.social talking to elected officials about petrochemical pollution and how they can protect our kids health #PeopleOverPolluters #CleanAir4Kids

"I think it's within the control of almost everyone in this room to get rid of pesticides on your kids' schools and playgrounds and you can just contact your principal..." #MomsPlasticsSummit #momsky

"There is DHP in that IV tubing, to make it more flexible. So it'd be great if we could go to our medical facilities and know that they are taking the biggest precaution..." #MomsPlasticsSummit #momsky

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

As a historian, I'd just like to remind the politicians who follow me that it is not, in fact, 2003 anymore and the current GOP war in the Middle East is not, in fact, even remotely popular. So if you're a weathervane who just tries to do what's already popular, full-throated opposition is it!

It’s time……

The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.

It’s time to turn the Epstein files into the Epstein trials. - Rep. Andrea Romero, Chair of the NM Epstein Truth Commission

Of all Presidementia's prior State-of-the-Unions I've not watched in the past, tonight's State-of-the-Union is the State-of-the-Union I'm not watching the most. 🍊🚫

Things I am NOT doing tonight: Watching the SOTU. Here’s to low viewership and reading the insanity like it came from @theonion.com tomorrow.

If a Prince can be held accountable, so can a President.

“If We Don’t Have Free Speech, Then We Just Don’t Have a Free Country” - The New Yorker

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

This. Is. Not. Ok.

🔥🖤💋🖤💋🖤💋🖤💋🔥 Someone sent me this on FB. Ima share it with y'all. Love this song so much.

This is really unfair to wastewater treatment plants. Clearly they need to be following @neorsd.org because sewar systems are our friends and some of the best, most helpful plants on the planet.

“Repealing this foundational finding is appalling,” Vanessa Lynch, Pennsylvania field organizer with @momscleanairforce.org said. “We need to be able to depend on the EPA to live up to their job of protecting people and families across the country.” insideclimatenews.org/news/1202202...

This woman is the prime example of sad women attached to men because they think the patriarchy will protect them. It won’t.

Today, the Clear Horizons Act has its first committee hearing. New Mexico families are already paying higher costs from wildfires, smoke, and extreme weather. Clear Horizons is about planning ahead —protecting family budgets, clean air, and our future. #ClearHorizonsAct #ActOnClimate #NMLeg

What he said…👇👇👇

"We'll take our stand for this land & the stranger in our midst..." Powerful. Brutal. Inspirational. A loving tribute to Renée Good, Alex Pretti & the good people of Minneapolis. Plus, it name-checks all the villains: the Puppy Killer🐶, Pee-Wee German🇩🇪, the Orange Atrocity🍊💩 & above all: ICE🧊🚫 1/

My first remarks since being arrested last night.

Today, federal agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis in plain sight. This is why we are fighting back against this lawless administration. Millions are asking us to do something, while our colleagues stand in the way of basic accountability. We must stand for the people and their rights!

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this. Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

93% turnout and we officially have a Union at Environmental Defense Fund. So proud to stand with my colleagues in this moment 😭 #EDFtogether

Voting ends today!! Let’s goooooooo! @edftogether.bsky.social #UnionStrong

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports. And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.” Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. - Margaret Mead Pic of the day #photography

Interesting to see the Guardian's @dpcarrington.bsky.social weighing in on this. My take, as someone covering microplastics heavily for the past year (and currently sitting at a 200+ person conference with many of the scientists in question): www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Under Lee Zeldin, EPA is allowing levels of pollution we have never seen the agency permit before. He's completely corrupting EPA's mission. Instead of protecting people and the environment, Zeldin is letting polluters get away with polluting MORE. #momsky #zeldinmustgo

Now Trump EPA head, Lee Zeldin, enters the scene with rank dishonesty & theatrical indignation to dispute the NY Times' correct, accurate reporting. But I've read the EPA smoking gun document, I'm a 30+-year clean air lawyer, I understand its meaning better than Zeldin, & I have the receipts. 1/

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks. IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

Making America Stupid Again 💔

But we can’t afford healthcare? Make it make sense!

“Oil isn’t something you mug someone for and take to the pawn shop for cash” @maddow.bsky.social on Trump’s misguided idea to “take oil” from Venezuela 🤣🤣🤣💯

This war and extra-judicial kidnapping is patently illegal and unconstitutional. Political leaders on both sides must condemn it. It’s not about whether Maduro is a tyrant but whether the US is still governed by laws and the Constitution. As if this morning, we are clearly not.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

Heatwaves, wildfires, droughts and storms cost world more than $ 120 billion in 2025, according to a new report

If you're going to drop into every post and reply "So what? Who's going to do something about it?", the answer is YOU. YOU are going to do something about it. YOU are the consequences. Stop waiting for someone else to save you.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

“The establishment doesn’t want to think about Epstein because they don’t want to think about how he got away with all of it, at such a scale, and for so long. This is one reason—perhaps the main reason—why Epstein matters.”
