The first and most important thing to know about last night's Exec order is that it's intended to break current law and allow people throughout the federal gov look at yr tax returns. Beyond that it's intended to compel states to turn over all their data to the fed govt.

The United States treating trans women like men, opens up a problem, what do you do with trans men? If trans women should be treated like men, trans men should be treated like women. So now people like this (shown below) are forced to use women's bathroom.

I am 54 years old. I stepped back from Moms Demand Action after 11 years because I understood that power is finite. Organizations and nations can’t evolve if they don’t have new rolling leadership. This isn’t about age, it’s about hoarding power.

Join Congressman Al Green for a “Know Your Rights” Town Hall on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. CST. Don’t miss this important opportunity to gain insights and essential tools about your immigration and citizenship rights.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Sad ill miss #caturday bc Bluesky has marked my account as SPAM

I don’t see how, unless our entire profession stands shoulder-to-shoulder in unity, we successfully push back against this effort to break our profession and our democracy. Cowering & compromising won’t work. He is attacking us for the success of our work. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.

Are you smarter than a 5th grader

AOC: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the bus in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together

Bernie hits hard: “Only a coward like Trump sues the media for reporting things he doesn’t like.” I agree. You don’t impeach judges for doing their jobs. You don’t silence free speech because the truth hurts. Trump’s war on democracy isn’t strength—it’s fear. And we should call it what it is.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Every member of Congress over the age of 60 should pick a young legislator or candidate to mentor and support with the expectation that the mentor leaves office within 5 to 10 years. Stop hoarding power.

Are other billionaires deeply invested in China getting this briefing too? Will China be represented at the briefing or will Musk give them a read-out afterwards?

Storm the Capitol & attack American democracy = Instant pardon. Attack Tesla = 20 years in a foreign torture prison. That's all you need to know about Trump's priorities.

The people who went with “Sarah McBride will actively collaborate with the destruction of transgender rights” turned out to be right. Incredible that this is our first representation in congress.

We rallied outside NOAA’s HQ in Silver Spring to defend facts & science, democracy & the rule of law. Trump & Elon Musk must reinstate the federal workers they illegally sacked from the agency. We're not letting NOAA go down—Congress & the people created it & we’ll defend it.

On this day in 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson told Gov. Wallace he would federalize the National Guard to protect Selma marchers. Alabama refused to defend justice, so the White House stepped in. A defining moment where federal power was used to uphold civil rights. #Selma

Teen Vogue: remains braver than almost any other news outlet at this time.

Moore: This is serious stuff because it impacts our businesses, which in turn affect our neighborhoods, our families, and ultimately our children. This is not a game. And the really frustrating thing for me is that we have people in very serious positions who are not serious people.

President Trump attacked the Department of Education and conjured up chaos for public servants eligible for loan forgiveness. But loan forgiveness remains intact, and Democrats are fighting to honor eligible public servants' careers and well-being.

My banana pictured got marked as spam which is weird.

My subconscious must have taken note of me constantly uttering to myself “This shit is bananas” in response to everything Felon related recently. That’s the only explanation I have for accidentally ordering this many bananas. Banana Recipes?

Tesla has recalled... every single Cybertruck. Every one they've ever sold. For a hardware issue www.carscoops.com/2025/03/tesl...

Moore: The only certainty we’ve gotten from this administration is uncertainty… When you’re using tools like tariffs as an ideology rather than as policy, changing numbers every day—that creates a level of uncertainty that not only drives markets crazy but also drives all business influence crazy.

Badar Khan Suri, a Georgetown post doctoral fellow who is a legal immigrant, was detained solely for sharing pro Palestinian views on social media. He was detained under the same provision as Mahmoud Khalil. He's already been moved to Louisiana. www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

Trump and Musk are slowly building their case—with lies and lunacy, per usual—for the martial law declaration they were _always_ headed toward. (And it takes 67 votes to impeach, not 60—but Musk has never cared about accuracy with numbers, or for that matter anything else.)

Sanders: Our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries. If you’re working class in America, you live 7-8 years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that? The answer is not just healthcare. But it is the day-to-day stress that working people live under.

Two-thirds vote to convict. 100 Senators. 60 is not two-thirds.

Patients benefit from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, which helps to reduce medical errors, protect patient safety, and make care more affordable. I joined @blumenthal.senate.gov and @beyer.house.gov in sending a message to Trump and DOGE last week: hands off AHRQ!

The van broke down on our way to see John Green in DC tonight. Sometimes disappointing moments lead to sweet memories like fixing the car with Dad.

YOU (yes you) are WRONG about trans people in sport. Katy dispelling the trans athletes advantage myth. This is so well done @KatyMontgomerie 👏 youtu.be/KDxaHA_xZz4?... via @YouTube

FACT: Medicaid covers nearly half of all childbirths in the US, and around two-thirds of nursing home stays. The GOP just passed a bill requiring DEEP cuts to these programs. What will happen to seniors and to pregnant women who can’t afford care? #SaveMedicaid

This, right here..

More than 150,000 MD-08 residents rely on Medicaid for lifesaving care, yet Trump & MAGA are pushing the largest cut ever. Let’s defend Medicaid with everything we’ve got.

From the very beginning drug laws have been a way to oppress people of color. This is that… on steroids. You know what will be a strain on our healthcare systems? Defunding Medicaid. www.thehandbasket.co/p/trump-fent...

Oh snap!!! Google searches for the "25th amendment" have spiked today according to Google Trends. People are finally curious how Republicans can get rid of that senile old man, eh? 🍿

Fun, far-ranging conversation with Vox about the book and what the aid cuts mean for the future of TB and other diseases of injustice. www.vox.com/future-perfe...

Headed to DC this morning so my kids can see their history teacher in action. One car has a dead battery & the other a very flat tire. Nevertheless we shall persist. Could use a bit more luck today🍀

The judge said it best, “the cruel irony is that thousands of transgender service members risk &!sacrifice their lives to ensure the very equal protection rights the military ban seeks to deny them.” We must fight for ALL our military & I mean ALL 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ tinyurl.com/yckeumsa

The FTC’s other Dem commissioner, Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, has also been purged tonight: www.axios.com/2025/03/18/t...

Spoke with an attorney who was harassed by law enforcement after providing pro bono help to immigrants. Wouldn't ID themselves or the agency. My guess is he isn't the only one. If you've experienced similar harassment or know someone who has, please feel free to reach out. Signal: @radleybalko.52

We aren't exaggerating that this is resegregation. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Congress is broken because too many people in power are comfortable doing nothing. I’m running for Congress to stand for YOU instead of the few. We need new people in office that fight for you, not just their re-election.
