Republican leadership intended to vote to gut the Endangered Species Act today… and then didn't have the support needed, so they pulled the bill.

Happy Earth Day! 🌍

DENMARK AND FRANCE 🇩🇰🇫🇷 bans all Microsoft products from all public offices.

The phaseout is expected to be completed before autumn 2026.

Their products are being replaced with customer versions of Linux and LibreOffice.

This is digital sovereignty being taken back

Imagine being so stupid that you think the fact that it takes longer to count the votes in places where there are a lot of votes than it does to count the votes in places where there are *not* a lot of votes is somehow a conspiracy.

Jonathan Turley Goes Full Tin Foil Hat About Viktor Orban Loss - Above the Law It's Infowars inside Turley's head, as he rants about 'globalists' trying to build a European market.

Glad to see more people are coming around ro my argument that Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure. abovethelaw.com/2026/04/jona...

How Trump has “celebrate[d] the First Amendment” leading up to the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner

In a development that should surprise no one, Trump has spent the seven weeks since the announcement of his attendance at the WHCA dinner honoring the First Amendment by demeaning reporters and threatening their employers, many of which he is currently suing.

Elected leaders dying in office is deeply sad - for their families, for their communities, & for our democracy. My thoughts are with Rep. Scott's loved ones.

The Trump crime family is making a fortune off daddy Trump's war of choice against Iran. The longer the war goes on, the wealthier the entire Trump crime family becomes. 😳👇

“You voted to continue those arms sales to Israel — are you on the wrong side of public opinion in your party?”

@schumer.senate.gov sidesteps CNN’s valid Q about his vote. (The answer is yes)

Soooooo.

Israeli media is reporting that Donald Trump has moved the deadline for a peace deal with Iran to Sunday.

Just in time to manipulate stock and oil market futures.

When will it end?

Remember last year's One Big Bullshit Bill? Republicans are now using that same 50-vote threshold budget reconciliation procedure to give ICE and CBP a fresh $70 billion.

Senate vote on the initial budget proposal is happening *THIS WEEK*

Call your Senators NOW. 🔥📞🔥

NEW: Rep Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) asks Justice Dept if/how Ghislaine Maxwell is pressing Trump Admin for a pardon

Ukraine’s Plan to Starve the Russian War Machine Negotiations have stalled. Trump keeps changing his policies. Ukrainians, backed by Europeans, are taking matters into their own hands. ​​​

Back in September, I wrote about Ukraine's long-range drones. Now that they are regularly and accurately striking Russian refineries and oil infrastructure, I think it's worth reading again, for those who missed it. Gift link:

Dems just forced House Republicans to pull votes on a bill to weaken the Endangered Species Act, after their support buckled. Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌏🌎

The CDC initially delayed the study, but has now blocked its in-house journal from publishing it entirely.

Covid-19 vaccines significantly reduced emergency room visits and hospitalizations this past winter—but RFK Jr.'s Department of Health doesn’t want the public to know that. trib.al/ElIQ2dG

Netanyahu says he’s 'saddened' by images of an IDF soldier defacing a crucifix in Lebanon.

But if he truly cared about attacks against Christians, he’d end rampant settler violence against them in the West Bank & harassment in Jerusalem.

Being sad isn't enough, DO SOMETHING!

The Trump DOJ attack on @splcenter.org is a TRAVESTY

We will stand shoulder to shoulder with them in this fight -TN

How Trump Accidentally Handed Dems Their Big Win in Virginia The vote yes campaign featured Trump all of its closing ads in areas where it ran up huge numbers. Voters know who started this war.

Remarkable: 100% of the ads in Northern Virginia heavily featured Trump to turn out voters for the redistricting referendum in the closing days, a source tells me.

That's right, all of the ads were all about Trump. This backfired for him spectacularly.

C.D.C. Cancels Publication of Study Showing Benefits of Covid Vaccines

The acting head of the CDC has canceled the publication of a study that found that the Covid vaccine sharply cut the odds of hospitalizations and emergency visits last winter

Republicans don’t want people to see this video before the midterms:

Multiple clips of Donald Trump promising half price electricity bills within one year. Have your energy bills gone down 50%?

"Smallpox was enough of a problem—and inoculation had become enough of a proven technique—that this was not just a matter for individual cities and individual clergy to debate but a matter of urgency for the war for independence." lnk.thebulwark.com/4vZJIum

Every single Republican voted against it.

The Hormuz situation seems so so bad, like gonna-destabilize-half-the-globe-and-tank-the-economy bad, with no obvious resolution even plausible, and it’s still getting the “distant crisis mostly of interest to nerds that will work itself out” treatment in American press

SCOOP: Two weeks ago, the head of the CDC delayed publication of a report showing covid vaccine cut likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations by half. Now that report is no longer allowed to be published in CDC’s flagship scientific journal. My latest. 1/2 #ustrumpout

CDC Blocks Publication of Study Proving Covid Vaccine Works The CDC initially delayed the study, but has now blocked its in-house journal from publishing the study entirely.

"CDC blocks study Proving Covid Vaccines Work."

I've said it before, The US is run by idiots.

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits
The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post. #Ustrumpout

Hiding the truth? #VaccinesWork!

Antivaxxers love transparency, unless it shows they are wrong (and they are ALWAYS wrong). 👇

The preview image is RFK, but the person running the CDC right now is Jay Bhattachayra.

He's speaking on "research integrity" in two days at the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Mathematics.

If he is not asked DIRECTLY about this during his "fireside chat," the workshop has failed.
