As our co-president @lisa-pubcitizen.bsky.social put it, "this is a craven attempt to silence dissent" by Trump's authoritarian administration.

We condemn this appalling move, and we stand in solidarity with the @splcenter.org

Good morning, Asia. While you were sleeping, one of our most-read stories reported that dozens of ships have managed to circumvent the blockade since it began — despite Donald Trump declaring it a ‘tremendous success’. ft.trib.al/9C3Xw4h

If we could get this version of Hakeem Jeffries 50% of the time, we'd be in good shape. He’s a solid caucus manager, but he spends most of his time filibustering subpar zingers, besides his occasional gestures toward legal sedevacantism.

Coin flip ratio would be much better. Sweep the leg, Jeffries

Ok, that's perfect. Big Dumper doing a PSA for colorectal cancer screening. Just perfect. ❤️

If you're 45 or older or at high risk of colon cancer, please get your screening. My dad and my ex both died young from colon cancer. It's a miserable disease.

And thanks, Cal. Bless you!

Trump pardons allies who boost his crypto coin.

Trump invests in corporations that he's supposed to be regulating.

Trump cuts deals with autocrats to advance his family's real estate business.

The list goes on.

We must not become numb to this corruption.

Men, We Need to Talk About "Rape Academy" This isn’t about women. This is about us. And it’s long past time we had this conversation

Social media analytics show that I lose followers every time I share my article about men needing to stop being pathetic little manbabies and instead step up and hold other men accountable to stop rape culture.

Oh, whoops, sharing it again. And won't stop either

Seems to me like the more people & the more land is ceded to DC, the greater the argument that DC residents should pay no federal taxes whatsoever. DC would have a larger population than 7 states with no representation in Congress. Bad enough now, but to add add half a million more people to that?
