They call them "data centers" because “mass-surveillance centers” would be harder to sell.

The law says a president can’t wage war longer than 60 days without Congress. That 60-day period just expired. Congress has not approved further military engagement. Many legal experts therefore say that continuing the conflict is illegal under U.S. law.

Jeffries says everything is on the table legislatively to deal with the Supreme Court: In the new Congress, we’re going to have to do something about this Supreme Court, and let me be very clear: everything is on the table.

From CBC News: Canadian detained by ICE for 6 months says he's an 'indefinite' prisoner, has no idea when he'll get out. 58 Canadians are being held by ICE. Avoid all nonessential travel to the United States.

Hakeem Jeffries responds to Karoline Leavitt: She wants to lecture us about civility? Get lost. Clean up your own house before you have anything to say to us.

If the president of the United States is so hated by Americans that he literally can’t leave the White House, then maybe he’s the problem.

If the WH new ball room is critical for future security of POTUS, maybe he should cancel all future rallies, golf games, Mar-a-lardo stays etc and just hunker down in his bunker. I for one would enjoy the break.

There are many ways you can participate in the massive day of economic disruption on Friday, from refusing to shop, to walking out of work, to attending a demonstration: survey.alchemer.com/s3/8705046/i...

Sorry, but if you’re mad that the Southern Poverty Law Center paid informants to infiltrate Nazi groups to expose them, then you are a Nazi.

Once again: if you are attending tomorrow's White House Correspondents Dinner and you are not planning to actively protest the presence of Trump and his henchmen and yet you claim to be a journalist and a patriotic American... You are neither a journalist nor an American. STAND FOR SOMETHING

Saw some dipshits talking moaning about how remote work leads to a lack of company culture and personal investment in jobs and company success No, you dipshits. It's because you keep fucking laying us off. You have shown us time and again how dispensable we are. Why THE FUCK should we be invested?

AOC: “People are getting denied surgeries, medicines, prescriptions are super expensive — and this administration is responsible for it and rewarding them for it — we have to bring it to a stop”

AOC is all sensible Americans right now, Americans who have completely lost patience with the wildly incompetent, lying loons currently running things who undermine our sanity, wealth, and wellbeing.

Happy Earth Day! To celebrate, we're bringing you three interviews with environmental activists. Al Gore, Catherine Coleman Flowers, and Bill McKibben explain the challenges of protecting the planet in the age of Trump on this special episode of More To The Story. Listen: tinyurl.com/smshw5c6

Happy 89th Birthday George Takei! George Takei, born on April 20, 1937, in Los Angeles, California, is an actor, activist, and social media phenomenon who has lived one of the most remarkable lives in American entertainment. As a child, Takei and his family were forcibly relocated to Japanese...

We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime. Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings. Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks. With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.

We’re almost ready to announce more endorsements as part of our largest-ever Democratic primary program — because the pro-democracy movement deserves leaders who are just as committed to defeating fascism as the activists out in the streets.

JON OSSOFF: “Ground beef’s up 20% since Trump took office. Coffee, 40%. Health premiums: through the roof. And remember, while you pay more for everything, the first family’s wealth is growing by billions of dollars. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.” www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

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.

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.

BREAKING: New data shows ZERO oil tankers passed through the Strait of Hormuz today, signaling what appears to be a complete shutdown of the Strait for the first time in history. The Strait normally carries about 20% of the world’s oil supply.

This war is so damn confusing. It’s why we shouldn’t let drunks and dementia patients run it.

If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.

We carry a responsibility to prove that government is worthy of the people it serves. A week ago, we marked our first 100 days. We will work every day to honor the promises we made to New Yorkers — and to fulfill the mission of the movement that brought us here.

Holy Crap this is every Anti LGBTQ Republican that’s been caught in a sex scandal! 🤣

This is exactly what we need. When Fascism rises, progressives must unite!

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

If Mamdani and Obama singing The Wheels On The Bus with a group of tiny kids doesn't spark some sort of joy in you, I've got nothing for you.

Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx.  In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.
