Happy Earth Day! 🌎

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

And the do nothing GOP Congress continues to enable their clearly mentally ill leader to the detriment of not only the US, but the world!

Maddow: "Do we think our servicemen and women are in good hands? Do we think that there is care being taken in terms of what they're risking their lives for?"

The National Science Foundation which funds a quarter of all basic scientific research in the country is being dismantled.

Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."

🔥SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 BILLION— as he leads 🇺🇸 diplomacy + asks sheikhs for billions more… Never have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia taking corruption to spectacular new heights.”

Grijalva to RFK Jr: "You apparently once cut the penis off a roadkill raccoon"

Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."

Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026. They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day.

BOYLE: The CBO says the big beautiful bill eliminates healthcare coverage for more than 15 million Americans. Are they really all, according to you, illegals and defrauding the system. That's really your position?

RUSS VOUGHT: Yes

BOYLE: That's laughable!

"CBS News’ viewership is at an all-time low"

That's the headline 7 months into Bari Weiss' takeover of CBS News. The internal politics are a sideshow.

Jealous

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.

This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

OH. MY. GOD.

THIS IS THE EARTHSET PHOTO FROM ARTEMIS II. IM SPEECHLESS.

If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment.

This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.

Soon to be appearing in midterm political ads for Democratic candidates nationwide. Thanks, Darnold. 🙏

@robertgarcia.house.gov: Pam Bondi's subpoena "does apply. The subpoena we put in place does not have any mention of whether she's AG or not. The subpoena is for Pam Bondi... She legally is required to appear before the Oversight Committee on April 14."

Lawrence O’Donnell made a great point.

Nixon won his 1972 re-election in a landslide, winning 49 states.

In 1974 he resigned.

By 1976, you couldn’t find anyone who would admit to supporting him.

Looking forward to history repeating itself.
