BACKDOOR ELECTION RIGGING? @thedemcoalition.bsky.social How about a national Voter Registration campaign? schiffnotes.substack.com/p/you-should...

OMG.

ICE agents are not all-powerful and immune from all consequences — no matter what Trump says. Kudos to these Minnesota officials for doing what they can to rein in this out-of-control agency. More states and cities should follow suit.

The Trump Administration's response? Lie their asses off. And, you know their base will swallow it, hook, line, and sinker. www.cnn.com/2026/04/17/p...

Trump keeps claiming victory in Iran. Our new poll shows voters aren’t buying it. A majority say the war is not in the national interest, and many lack confidence in the president’s goals — including some of his 2024 supporters.

THE PEDOPHILE'S HAND PICK COMMITTEE OF PEDOPHILE PROTECTORS APPROVED HIS HITLER ARCH!!! The arch would dwarf the 99' Lincoln Memorial And of course, the repiblikkklan party of racists and pedophile protectors relish making their HITLER ARCH tower over the man who freed slaves IT WILL COME DOWN!

04/17/26 PM! You can put me on mute & block me. I don't care. I'll not stop! There're NO Civil Rights in Trump & Kimberly Richey’s Deranged America! I'll repeat this Every Day until Reality Sinks In. No children's rights, women's rights, disability rights, minority rights! 150 yrs gone! Get Louder!

It just never ends. The Trump administration has officially scheduled an auction for drilling rights in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Companies can bid for the right to drill in ANWR starting June 5.

Christian Nationalist Pete Hegseth has come up with a way to motivate Iranians to kill more American troops. Instead of framing the war as being against the Iranian regime, which many Iranians dislike and wouldn't fight for, he talks of the war being against their Islamic faith. He's smart that way.

A jury has found that Live Nation has been operating as an illegal monopoly. Live Nation used its dominance to harm customers, artists, and venues alike. Other monopolies take away our freedoms in similar ways. Former FTC Chair Lina Khan explains.

THE DRUNK (Pete Hegseth) was NOT FORMALLY "kicked out" of the National Guard for WHITE‑SUPREMACY TATTOOS ... in the sense of a documented discharge for EXTREMISM BUT ... HE WAS FLAGGED BY FELLOW SERVICE MEMBERS over a tattoo & had some duties revoked AND ... HE LEFT THE GUARD not long afterward

Donald Trump and Big Oil's illegal ploy to restart the Sable oil pipeline in Santa Barbara County was just REJECTED. Launching a reckless war with Iran and creating a global oil crisis doesn't suddenly allow these guys to break the law.

No they have not.

A court today rejected Sable Offshore Corp.’s request to rescind a preliminary injunction prohibiting the restart of an oil pipeline system on the CA coast until and unless specific conditions were met. The company restarted the pipeline in March, despite the injunction. ➡️ biodiv.us/4dQ2hKP

“Trumpism will not deliver broad prosperity any more than Orbánism did,” Adam Serwer argues. “It took Hungarians the better part of 20 years to reclaim their freedom. How long will it take Americans?”

David Ellison will host an exclusive dinner “honoring” Trump next week. It comes as he’s waiting for regulatory approval of Paramount’s proposal to buy Warner Bros., which would create a massive pro-Trump media monopoly. What is he going to promise Trump at this dinner? Hello???

These resurfaced remarks expose a racist mindset that has no place in someone responsible for the health of 341 million Americans. We can’t normalize this behavior. RFK Jr. must be held accountable.

Who could’ve predicted this would happen?

While MTG is no angel, She is Finally telling the Truth about Trump, Epstein, and makes Releasing the Epstein Files more important than an Unnecessary Distraction of Starting Wars and not Focusing on lack of Affordability. 🤔😡😡😡😡👏👍🇺🇸😎

It's a casino with no correlation between price and value at this point in time. Not quite crypto which is worthless and gold and silver which are just shiny metals worth only their industrial value not what they trade at. It's all a greater fool market with plenty of fools.

Hormuz is closed again. The 10% got richer d/t #MarketManipulation AGAIN!

The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks. The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks. It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

The American gestapo abducted an 85 year-old widow. Was she one of the worst of the worst? No, her step-son, a retired Alabama state trooper, got ICE to put her in a detention center to deport her because he wanted all of his father's inheritance. Sounds like the son is the worst of the worst.

Donald Trump is lying to you.

I'm going to leave this here, without commenting on it .... www.rawstory.com/trump-assass...

Schiff: What more will happen? You know, really, the sky’s the limit. We have to anticipate they could create some provocation at a polling place to create a pretext to call on the military or to seize ballot boxes. And we’re going to be prepared for whatever they throw our way…

Trump administration considers unfreezing $20 billion in Iranian assets — after lambasting Obama for a similar move

When Colbert teams up with @sydneykamlager.bsky.social @meidastouch.com, you never know what will happen. She is a flamethrower. 🔥🔥

Content warning. This is John Abendshien, 79. He previously owned the Winnetka house where “Home Alone” was filmed. He was just arrested & charged this week and charged on 7 counts of CSAM of children aged 4 to 15. Once again. Not an immigrant. Not a drag queen. Not a Mexican. smh

The Epstein files remain hidden while powerful people walk free. Acting AG Blanche has the power to change that right now. Demand the full, unredacted release of every document — no more protection for the elite.

Japanese anti-war group starts new campaign at Shinjuku Station, Tokyo. ”We want world peace! Fuck Trump!"

Everyone should do this!

This is what happens when you have an incompetent fool with no experience in charge of the Pentagon. Pete likes to put on makeup and appear on camera, boasting about war and its warriors, while essential tasks, like making sure those warriors are fed, are not seen as flashy enough to bother with.

Libraries are critical for incarcerated Americans seeking to get the education and skills they need to successfully reenter society. I’m introducing two bills with @cleaver.house.gov to expand library resources and reduce recidivism.

I need a break….

Amy Goodman has spent 30 years building an independent media with no corporate funding. Meredith Blake on why her story matters right now:

Trump pardoned the leaders of OathKeepers and Proud Boys, convicted of Seditious Conspiracy. Now, he wants to erase the fact that they were ever even arrested. Join the discussion at: open.substack.com/pub/thefrank...

Anshel Pfeffer is exactly right.

Barack Obama: “Virginia, if you haven't done it already, make a plan to vote YES on the redistricting referendum. You can vote early by April 18 or on Election Day, April 21.” Find your polling place at IWillVote.com/VA.
