You really can't exaggerate how squarely contrary this rhetoric is to the basic foundational precepts of this country. These people *hate* the actually existing United States.

It. Is. In. The. Fourteenth. Amendment. It. Is. A. Right.

SCHLAPP: Who wants to see impeachment hearings? CPAC CROWD: *cheers* SCHLAPP: No. That was the wrong answer.

Swalwell: "This guy has more plans for his ballroom at the White House than he does for protecting the homeland, fighting a war in Iran, and bringing down the costs as he promised he'd do on day one."

Swalwell: "I want to knock out this argument we even need ICE doing what they're doing in the first place. If they are so easily moved from our streets, where they are terrorizing people, to passing out bottles of water in the airport, did we really need them terrorizing people in the first place?"

House Republicans reject the DHS funding deal passed by the Senate last night and senators have all gone home and are in recess for the next two weeks. The dysfunctional Republican Congress.

Made this so long ago. Looking forward to Saturday and going to our local No Kings rally! Expecting this one to be much bigger than the last. But while we are there, ask your fellow protesters what they think about ICE at polls. How are we going to protest that? Maybe it’s time…

The smallest man in America.

Yes, sir, that is correct. You are supposed to get Congressional approval before going to war. It appears that you know that. Stop this illegal war.

from 1868 to 2025 there was little dispute about what the birthright clause meant and the idea that the past year has been some great scholarly debate is absurd. a handful of partisans and hacks have churned out junk so that the president can get what he wants. that’s it.

People are saying CPAC is about as low energy as it’s ever been. Trump is a no show. Merch is crappy and made in China. Speakers are lame. Even the grindr traffic is down.

A class act.

The movie was never number one. It was, however, a big piece of number two.

For over 50 years, @pflag.org has brought together LGBTQ+ people, families, and allies to fight for equality. As someone who’s been involved with PFLAG for decades, I can tell you that with attacks on our community escalating across the country, that work has never felt more urgent.

A drunk former fox news host refused to promote two Black and two female officers because a convicted felon and 5x draft dodger does not want to stand next to a Black woman at military events. Think about that for a second.

Breaking and got done at 2:30 a.m.: Senate agrees to fund most of DHS, including TSA and FEMA, Coast Guard and CISA (cyber) but not ICE. FACTS: “The speedy agreement was surprising given Dems had requested it with Republicans objecting each time.” thehill.com/homenews/sen...

Yes, Hegseth’s refusal to promote servicemembers is blatantly racist and runs afoul of the Constitution But we can’t ignore that it’s blatantly misogynistic as well-which also runs afoul of the Constitution Hegseth is the perfect servant to his racist, sexist master

Couldn’t agree more!

If a secdef violating the 14th amendment rights of US servicemembers by denying promotions based on race isn’t impeachable then I don’t see what is. The man would rather the military be racist than effective.

Was this insider trading?

Women and people of color can risk their lives in Trump's reckless wars of choice but can't get well deserved promotions. No, those only go to white men in Hegeth's DoD. This story about Hegeth's on-going purge is revolting. GIFT LINK: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/27/u...

good piece on MS-NOW confirming the WSJ report from two days ago Trump has lost interest in his war but unlike with the tariffs, that alone doesn't end the war or fix the crisis www.ms.now/news/trump-i...

All those House Republicans who pledged never to vote for the senate DHS funding bill unless they also passed the SAVE act will now be put to the test again today. Will they cave again or actually do what they promised to their people for the first time ever?

Not good. People focus almost exclusively on oil, but the LNG market is almost equally important.

Pete Hegseth strikes two black and two female officers from promotion list. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/27/u...

The presidency is a giant ATM machine for Trump and his family.

BREAKING OVERNIGHT: By unanimous consent, the Senate voted to fund most of DHS in a bid to end the partial shutdown. The bill restores pay for TSA, but excludes ICE funding. 📌 It’s not over just yet. It heads to the House, then Trump has to sign. TSA misses one more paycheck today.

Interesting timing.

Whiskey Pete just struck 4 names (2 women and 2 Black) from a promotion list to General for the Senate. That never happens. Secratery of the Army provides the list and vouched for the 4, highly recommend officers. Racist, mysigingistc pig. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/27/u... (Gift Horse 👇🏽)

This seems highly illegal. And if it somehow is allowed to continue, why would anyone else enter into any sort agreement with this administration?

Senate Dems deserve a ton of credit for holding strong. This is what we’ve been begging for over a year. Unify and be a strong opposition party.

i said last year that these people were segregationists and that “merit” just meant “white and male” to these people

Yesterday, Trump’s first cabinet meeting since the start of the war: 90 minutes of rambling. He bragged about cognitive tests like they’re IQ scores. Does he realize how strange he sounds? You don’t take that many tests for no reason.

If you know anyone who doesn’t care about the SAVE Republican Asses Act because they don’t think it will affect them, they better hope they never have to move, change their name, or switch parties, or they better have a passport or certified birth certificate and be willing to re-register in person!

NEWS: The U.S. Senate has advanced a deal to fund most of DHS for the rest of the fiscal year, excluding additional funding for ICE and Border Patrol, approved by unanimous voice vote just after 2am. The measure now heads to the House for a vote as early as later today.

U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden said he’ll be “watchdogging” federal agents who he said have “defaulted to lawless violence” during past protests.

Billionaires should not be paying a lower effective tax rate than a firefighter. Period.

Just another reason why we should vote for Senator Merkley again! 💙

Sick patients should never be used to turn healthy profits. I’m fighting to crack down on the private equity greed that’s destroying our health care system—and leaving patients holding the bill.

📌BREAKING via NYT: “Pete Hegseth is blocking the promotion of four Army officers to be one-star generals, a highly unusual move." Two of the officers are Black and two are women, the other 32 are white men. Tell me again this regime isn’t fueled by bigotry and misogyny, and I’ll call you a liar.

new Fox News polling: "Trump’s 59% disapproval is the highest of either term"

New in PN: What do you do when you can't trust the govt? "Trump contradicts himself so often that we’ve become accustomed to disregarding it as nothing but background noise, conveying nothing meaningful. At root, this is the core project of his second administration: to undermine any shared truth."

the ratings collapse at CBS is not all part of the plan; Weiss and Ellison are both humiliating themselves in ways that harm them and fascism in general. also Bari might well get fired. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/bari-weiss...

go.bsky.app/9Zw4fnV Have you been overwhelmed by how many ways the administration is hiding from the Epstein Files? Every fascist gutting of our democracy is to bury the files. Musk admits to helping 47 win the 2024 election. Therefore 47 is not really president. Follow and protest 3.5%
