NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.
Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.
We're disappointed to see Ben Barres's powerful book "The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist" among the ~400 titles removed from the Naval Academy Library. Needless to say, we're proud to have published his book and will keep it — and his memory — alive.
It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.
Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

They can not detain you without a warrant, and everyone has the right to due process. You don't have to speak to them period, and walk away if there is no warrant.
To all of the students and young people out there feeling the weight and uncertainty of this moment – we just wanted to share this message of hope and support from ourselves and other student leaders, including Noheya Begay-Yellowhair, a student at UNM. ❤️
The economy is in chaos, the Defense Dept. is trying to cover up leaking war plans in a group chat, and Trump & Musk are dismantling vital programs. What is the GOP using precious Floor time on this week?
Repealing refrigerator efficiency standards.
You can’t make this up. The GOP is out of touch.
You think Hegseth can't be any more awful and then we discover his racist hunt for "DEI" labeled the highest ranking black Medal of Honor recipients award a 'DEI medal' on Arlington's website. MG Charles Rogers was ten times the man Pete will ever be. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
The ability to observe, forecast, and warn of impactful weather is being degraded, putting lives and the economy in danger.

I find "listen to the women" excellent advice in this specific case and... in life in general. ♀️

Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed information about prominent Black, Hispanic and female service members and topics such as the Civil War from its website, part of an effort across the Defense Department to remove all references to diversity, equity and inclusion from its online presence.
Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." This is absolute rubbish. Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American for 85 years. Perhaps the bigger "ponzi scheme" is the $38 billion spent by taxpayers to prop up his corporations?
Sounds like a billionaire who’s never talked to a working person in his life.
Elon: get your hands off of Americans’ hard-earned Social Security.
🚨Sen. Duckworth invited Elon Musk to our town hall yesterday to hear from Veterans affected by DOGE.
He chose to ignore their stories.
Cowards run from accountability.
Federal workers at a Virginia town hall last night—this says it all!
“I know their goal is to make us miserable.” — so they don’t show up to work.
And Dems, take note: People aren’t here for your ill-timed, tone-deaf donation requests. It’s going to backfire. They want to see you fight for them!
Federal workers are the people doing the hard work to process veterans’ benefits, make sure our airplanes can fly safely, and protect families from the bird flu.
To all of our federal workers: I see you and I’m fighting for you.
Donald Trump is treating the destruction of a democracy as a political show — throwing Ukraine to the wolves and doing a favor for Putin.
It's shameful and dangerous.
I've been to Ukraine, as have many Senate Republicans. I hope they speak up. Millions of lives are at stake.
Donald Trump has betrayed America.
If you couldn’t see it before, you just saw it today.
