The perfect encapsulation of Politico. "Of course the White House is lying, but it's a pretty savvy lie, so let's see how it plays?" It's all a fun little game with no stakes to them. It's like they're recapping episodes of Real Housewives.

Can we agree baseball isn’t all about analytics? Chemistry and team spirit used to matter. Mets season is an example of percentages and payrolls not = wins. Keep a player like David Robertson who wanted more than anything to stay w/ the Mets. Keep Iglesias. Butto. Low cost, big heart. #lgm #metssky

"It’s almost as if the truth has been staring us in the face all this time, but seventy-seven million Americans voted for Donald Trump anyway."

ICYMI: @ktnguyenauthor.bsky.social, author of You Know What You Did, talks w @evalangston.bsky.social & @hollyrizzutopal.bsky.social about being the child of immigrants, OCD, and her time as a magazine editor.

A lie gets half-way around the block, while the truth is putting its shoes on. But its shoes are on and I’m going to tell the truth.

Susan Rice on Pete Hegseth attacking DEI while betraying his own incompetence: "If you're a white, Christian, cisgender, macho MAGA man, you can be as dumb as a rock and be deemed qualified to serve as Secretary of Defense. That's apparently what we've learned from this episode."

Workers are not asking to get rich. They just want to afford three meals a day. In the richest country in the history of the world, no one should work for starvation wages. It is time to raise the disgraceful $7.25/hr federal minimum wage to a living wage of AT LEAST $17/hr.

SWEEEP! Happy Easter #metsfans #mets #7linearmy

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

meanwhile, prominent pundits continue to deny that there the administration adheres to a segregationist ideology

It has been two weeks since a Georgia woman was arrested for her miscarriage, and not one major national outlet has covered the story

Top 5 ways to celebrate “Liberation Day”: 1. Remove shoe. Sh00t self in foot. 2. Google “tariff”. Summarily ignore definition. 3. Poop in neighbor’s yard. 4. Designate organ to exchange for a pint of maple syrup. 4. Put wallet in Vitamix. Purée for 15 secs. #liberationday #tariff #trumptax

Early Voting is underway in Florida's First and Sixth Districts. Let's flip these seats to help shift the balance of power in the U.S. House of Representatives where we can then stop trump/musk’s power grab. Early voting ends March 29. So, Go VOTE, Florida! #MomSky

This you @usatoday.com?

🚨 CBS News has received an internal NSA bulletin from Feb 2025 warning staff NOT to use Signal app for sensitive info, citing vulnerabilities to Russian hackers. These docs were sent pre-Houthi chat scandal with Jeffrey Goldberg.

New York Times full front-page coverage of Hillary's emails THEN vs Trump Administration's Signal-gate NOW.

Stop using “DEI.” That’s not what any of this is about. Journalists insisting on adopting the preferred terminology of the propagandists is a big fucking problem. Stop it.

ICYMI — Gwynne Wilcox, a member of the National Labor Relations Board fired by Trump, returned to the office to cheers on Monday after a judge ordered her reinstatement.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social your constituents want you to vote NO on the CR. @raskin.house.gov @alsobrooks.senate.gov @indivmocowomen.bsky.social

republicans are pro getting farmers to vote for them and then having to sell their farms off to billionaires and large corporations

If they won’t show up to town halls, won’t speak up to the president, and won’t defend the most bi-partisan things like air traffic controllers and pediatric cancer research - then all they’re doing is using you for an easy paycheck. America needs bold leadership, not freeloaders.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This JD Vance' video was deleted from Twitter by Elon Musk.

Republican congressional majority in charge of committees need to do their jobs and, at the very least, hold hearings.

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying. WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

Disgusting

"There is a very specific group that does have to worry about their immunity from vaccination. People born after 1957 but vaccinated before 1968. At that point in time, they were using less effective vaccines."

The people of the United States did not vote for him.

Accurate translation of Bezos-speak.

Truth

We are here--watching the Republican Party deny funding to birth babies and taking food from their mouths once born --partly because of reporting like this. The NYT pretends Republicans sicken & starve us reluctantly. We know it's the fascist plan. The NYT knows too, but it won't tell the truth.
