Representation matters. As we watch Republicans undermine that principle across the nation, it’s up to us to elect people who share diverse experiences, especially painful ones. Vote like your life depends on it. It does. And then, remind others to do the same.

Moms deserve ALL the flowers, but flowers & chocolate can’t fix the disastrously falling dominoes that start the moment a person becomes a mom: Republican leaders must stop undercutting moms & end the affordability crisis. @msnownews.bsky.social   www.ms.now/opinion/moth...  #HappyMothersDay

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but what’s going on in the south right now with voting rights and erasure, is a “kitchen table issue” — for Black families. And it should be for everyone.

Virginia voters showed up. Over 3 MILLION of them. And a court just threw their votes in the trash. This is voter suppression wearing a robe. Hakeem is right — this is unprecedented, undemocratic, and it CANNOT stand. Our fight is not over. We are just getting started. No Jim Crow 2.0

AI oversight is a must. In the absence of Federal regulation, we cannot allow Congress to strip states of their power to regulate this technology. Protecting local authority is the only way to manage the risks effectively.

Leader Jeffries is neither a THUG, nor Low IQ and far from a danger to the country. Trump’s policies are so unpopular that he can only resort to what he knows best - naked racism and coded language. This is called projection, not leadership.

When participation is blocked by disability, time, cost, caregiving, or transportation barriers, people are excluded from organizing itself. This is how our people are shut out of the democratic process. 1/2 www.pressherald.com/2026/04/29/p...

In four days, a man found civilly liable for sexual harassment, assault, and battery is keynoting a major tech conference. Sponsors include Meta, LinkedIn, BCG, AWS, and many others. The whole story is wild. This is part 1 of 3. youtube.com/shorts/CnD1o...

This. Wait for facts. Don’t speculate. Don’t feed rumor mills. Here are things we CAN say: There’s no place for political violence in democracy. Talk. Volunteer. Vote.

Trump and others were evacuated from White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner after shots were fired. Gun violence is never the answer. We encourage all to join us in condemning all forms of political violence! #WHCD #WHCA #freedomfromgunviolence

Yet despite their lawlessness, all the people they killed and the concentration camps they built, Republicans voted to give ICE $70 billion They could’ve funded school meals, provided free child care or reversed the draconian cuts they made to SNAP in the Big Ugly Bill But instead, they chose hate

It looks like a ballot initiative to restore legal abortion in Idaho will happen! The group Idahoans United for Women and Families has reached its signature goals in 19 legislative districts, and counties have officially processed 95% of the 104,000 signatures gathered.

How can we let this happen? Silence is complicity! The mainstream media is silent & therefore complicit. It's up to us to keep our eyes open & fight tyranny. Taking action is empowering, so volunteer/donate to Candidates who oppose #ICELawlessness or immigrant action orgs like Eachstephome.org.

This administration is violating the Constitution and law. Trump & #ICELawlessness puts every one of us at risk. Please talk to friends & family. Please get involved with the midterms & volunteer/donate to Democratic candidates who will impeach him in the House & remove in the Senate. 🧵

The 40th anniversary of the Dupont Plaza Hotel Fire which killed 97 people including my mom in Puerto Rico on NYE in 1986 is coming soon. I have tried for years to create a small memorial in San Juan - recognizing first responders and the victims. No luck so far. Anyone have connections in PR?

Billionaires have record profits. Working families can't pay rent. That's not an accident—it's a rigged system. May 1 we take it back. Tax the rich. Fund our communities. #MayDay social.demcast.com/s/LFOOopMZ

Two things can be true: Congress should pass uniform, national legislation reining in partisan gerrymandering; and Until that happens, or every state adopts an independent redistricting commission, neither party is going to (or, frankly, should) unilaterally disarm.

The Trump administration's targeting of civil rights groups is a dangerous abuse of power. Law enforcement, including the DOJ, should never be weaponized because the administration disagrees with its advocacy. We stand with SPLC.

Inexcusable. Those in the Admin working to deny Afghani refugees asylum in the US should be ashamed of themselves. What do they think makes America great? Our fight for what’s right? Our word? Our intelligence? Our military might? This undermines all of it. apple.news/AmlVCZnmAR62...

Today is a good day for democracy 💥 Donald Trump, Greg Abbott, and Mike Johnson tried to rig midterms… and still took the L. Virginia voters understood the assignment. They saw it for what it was and obliterated it.

This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.

Olivia Mabiala Andre is only 19 years old, but already a CNA. THIS 19 YEAR OLD HAS DEDICATED HERSELF TO HELPING AMERICANS AS A NURSE. Won't you help her? Call your representatives & Senators or donate to an organization like Eachstephome.org & tell her story, at the very least, repost it.

URGENT HELP NEEDED!🚨 Immigrants are being detained in abysmal NAZI-like depraved conditions. Will you help? Someone you love could be a target next, don't swipe, act! Act as if she were your child, your sister, your girlfriend/wife, your mother! Call Congress at 202-224-3121.

Meanwhile, neither the Bible or Holy scripture are mentioned anywhere in our founding documents — the Constitution, Bill of Rights, or the (250 yo) Declaration of Independence. MAGA is a white, ableist, Christian nationalist cult “re-dedicating” itself to its own extremism.

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.

Freedom of speech does not include expressions meant to incite violence. It’s sad we even need Governments to step in here. How broken do you have to be to create a website like this? To visit it/use it?

A firearm in the home increases the risk of death or injury by five times more than in gun-free homes. This news is shocking for Virginia and so incredibly sad. #FreedomFromGunViolence #MomSky #SheShed www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Murray: "We should be sending money to our schools, not buying more missiles that Trump can fire on schools in Iran. This budget would rob our families and burden our grandkids with mountains of new debt, and for what? So Trump has more bombs he can threaten to end civilizations with?"

My heart goes out to all the women coming forward regarding Eric Swalwell. In 1985, as a 21-year-old Intern in then Senator Ted Kennedy’s office, I was sexually assaulted by the Senator’s chief defense advisor, Thomas Longstreth. He was probably in his mid-30s at the time. wapo.st/4tmwCWo

NEW: Trump is trying to save his legacy by scrubbing from the record that his presidency culminated in a violent attempt to overturn an election on his behalf. But there is something even more sinister in that effort, because these are his soldiers and midterms are coming. Read & Subscribe 👇🏼

Trump never counts “inconvenient deaths.” More Americans die from lack of health care than from any of the threats he uses to rile his base. In his 1st term he ditched the deal keeping Iran uranium monitored, then he 😉 “obliterated ” the stockpiles. Not. Now all Americans are terror targets. 😡

Trump spent billions on this illegal war, and what has it gotten us Gas prices are soaring, Iran holds the Strait of Hormuz, America hasn’t captured any uranium and the US economy is teetering on an edge We could’ve used the money to insure millions of Americans instead #HealthcareNotTrumpsWar

$101 million for golf trips. $225 million on Pentagon furniture. $300 million for a White House ballroom. And yet, Republicans will tell you that cutting Medicaid is fiscally responsible. Math is fun. santiagomayer.substack.com/p/heres-some...

The warnings are getting louder about Trump trying to take over voting at the national level. Are we paying attention? Sen Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, is sounding the alarm, and he’s not guessing. That committee sees things the public can’t.

Olivia Troye worked inside Trump’s administration, testified against him when it cost something, and never looked back. Now she’s running for Congress in Virginia. She knows every move in his playbook. Every single one. He should be very, very nervous.

Well put. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Can anyone say it better than this?

Honored to be part of this starter pack with rockstars who continue the fight for Democracy day in and day out across platforms and media, trying to reach every voter every day. We can do this . . .

Grant takes the fight on Newmax almost daily. Thanks for including me here! Great pack to fight for Blue Wins in the Midterms - which include a Dem governor in California!

The new voter suppression bill—called the "Save America Act"—would require 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates to register to vote. Most don't have these documents. This is a poll tax by another name. #HandsOffHerVote

BREAKING: Hungary’s Viktor Orbán concedes election to Tisza’s Magyar. ‼️

Shared with a friend and felt like sharing with all of you too: Remember you don’t owe anyone your sanity - you can take a break, or if speaking your truth helps safeguard your sanity, post without reading/engaging in responses. But don’t let the world take more from you than you want to give.

Rarely has a people had such an *opportunity* to stop the evils of their government as we do right now. If we impeach & remove Trump, we will avert additional crimes against humanity. If we do not, history will judge us harshly. All of us. Yes, even me & you. 6/7 www.thenation.com/article/poli...
