Live: Speaking on Trump, Musk, and America’s Moral Moment on the Senate Floor | Senator Cory Booker YouTube video by Senator Cory Booker

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

23andMe has filed for bankruptcy to sell itself, which means any data they hold about you is going to change hands soon. If you're worried about your privacy don't rush in and delete your account - scramble it first. This way, any residual data they retain after deletion will be useless too 🧵

We were told not to share this publicly, but last year was record-breaking—America’s national parks saw over 331 million visits.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”

There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Our coalition has grown rapidly, now standing strong with over 92,000 federal employees. We are united by our oath and our commitment to hold the line. Every day, more of us are being targeted simply for speaking the truth to America.

Heading to the US Treasury with @JasminForUS to ask for a meeting with the unelected, unvetted Elon lackeys who have taken control of the Treasury payments system. We need answers.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Education Department employees have been placed on leave for attending diversity training. Meanwhile, Republicans have introduced a bill to eliminate the Department of Education.

Today from Timothy Snyder, author of On Tyranny:

She’s so genuinely adorable. My kids introduced me to her in the movie “Tallgirl,” and (embarrassing mom moment) I had no idea she was the same person singing “Espresso” during a morning carpool earlier this year. 🤦‍♀️

Nice to see you, Katie!

I vouch for Virginia as a journalist, if you’d like to talk to her.

Guardian vs. NYT. You know who's going to call things by their true names and who's not even gonna give you syrup with that waffle.

Just hours after taking the oath of office, Donald Trump took down reproductiverights.gov — a website to help women find health care and understand their rights.

They’re wasting no time assaulting freedom.
