Get a cat if you need to slow down in life— I had a bunch of stuff to do but my cat laid down on my chest and now I can’t move

I can’t believe how insane this redistricting thing is. There is no Historical precedent for a president calling a governor and saying you need to get me five seats. We are now in a literal arms race for the House of Representatives. Trump knows what he’s doing is not popular and he knows this is….

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now.

When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was on🔥

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

‘This isn’t an isolated incident’: Trump’s show of military force in LA was years in the making The president had been waiting for this made-for-TV clash that allows the administration to ‘manufacture’ a crisis

"And, former defense secretary Mark Esper told NPR in 2022, Trump asked if protesters could be shot. 'Can’t you just shoot them, just shoot them in the legs or something?'"

Elon Musk Has Already Packed Up and Left the White House The billionaire has packed up as he wraps up his tenure at DOGE, but he’s not completely gone.

He may be gone but that remote access or his staff in those departments are still very much active. This is all about optics, he's still just as much a threat as before. Until a clean sweep of those systems is completed, they are 100% compromised.

Mark Carney, "The lessons of Brexit are beginning to be applied to the US"

"When you break trading relationships you end up with slower growth"

It’s not “hostile” and it’s not “political” to display how much tariffs are added to your purchase. Retailers can face legal trouble for not disclosing tariff charges per the FTCA (Federal Trade Commission Act).

They used fear to get the media, the law firms, the universities and the private sector to comply.
Fear of retribution.
Retaliation.
Revenge.

Now, it’s the judiciary’s turn.

This is what Fascism looks like.

Our ad “Daisy” has been nominated for Best Short Form Social Video in Public Service, Social Impact, and Activism. "Daisy" is a harrowing dramatization of the danger our women are in when Trump and the GOP insert themselves into healthcare decisions.

Trump’s new tariff math looks a lot like ChatGPT’s ChatGPT may be the White House’s latest economic advisor.

Oh my God... it was all ChatGPT.

They didn't even care enough about the American economy to do any of the work themselves.

It almost feels... impeachable?

How could sloppily using AI to create domestic policy, then hiding it, be consistent with the Oath of Office?

Are we great again yet?

Hitler used a failing economy to secure power. That’s why Trump is destroying ours.

Ditto conflict with Denmark over Greenland. All designed to destroy NATO.

I adore Malcolm Kenyatta, PA State Representative 181st district. From North Philly!! Also a Temple University alum 💙
In addition, he is the DNC Vice Chair.

Very grateful to have him in the PA House. Can't wait to watch him continue to stand up for democracy!

Three prominent Yale professors depart for Canadian university, citing Trump fears History department power couple Timothy Snyder and Marci Shore and philosophy professor Jason Stanley will begin teaching at the University of Toronto’s renowned Munk School in fall 2025.

“Asked whether she believes other professors might be encouraged to leave the United States, Shore wrote that she believes many of her colleagues will consider relocating due to the current political climate, which she deemed an ‘American descent into fascism.’”

Sometimes you just have to ask—why? The Senate voted to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure introduced by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that was expected to save Americans billions each year.

If you don't want to see this horrible garbage happen in every future high-stakes election, make sure it demonstrably fails in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race by helping elect Susan Crawford

To work for Donald Trump means you have to lie as you breathe.

Malone said Saturday that his campaign volunteers have heard concerns from thousands of voters over Musk’s work with the Trump administration to reshape the federal government, which he said has led to “benefits for veterans, retirees and students” being cut “so Elon Musk can get a tax cut.” “Josh Parsons might be OK with that but I’m not,” Malone said. “On Tuesday, you’ll get to make the choice between more Musk, or Lancaster values.”

The Democrat who just flipped a very Trumpy seat in Pennsylvania’s Senate made opposition to Elon Musk front and center in his campaign.

Listen everyone. I’ve see classified stuff before. This in the Atlantic is the kind of stuff that gets the highest classification.

I had to have TS clearance to hear the names of the people we targeted in Iraq when i was with TF16 and 17. And still some names were withheld until op was over….
