Gary Peters (MI), Jacky Rosen (NV), Adam Schiff (CA), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), Elissa Slotkin (MI), Mark Warner (VA), Raphael Warnock (GA), and Sheldon Whitehouse (RI).

Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer is leaving Trump's Cabinet after abuse of power allegations Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer is out of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet after multiple allegations of abusing her position, including an affair with a subordinate and drinking on the job.

It's We Will Rise Again from Far Cry 5. Truly, all 10 cult hymns by Dan Romer are just brilliant, but this was the one that really struck me right in the heart.

Tied for second is all 8 shamisen songs from Ghost of Yotei.

10th is You're Not Here from Silent Hill 3.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.

We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.

Please stand by for more.

And that, for now, is it. The Senate may take up other votes and cloture will probably be filed for more people throughout the week.

As always, if I missed anything please feel free to let me know.

Andrew Davis - Alliance for Justice

As for the Senate, the only vote that is certain so far is today's confirmation vote for Andrew Davis to be a District Judge for Western Texas. He passed cloture on Thursday 49-48 on a party line vote. Based on that, I doubt any Dems vote to confirm him today.

There was an attempt last Friday at 2am EST to extend FISA until October 2027, but that failed 197-228.

The four Dems who voted yea were Jared Golden (ME), Josh Gottheimer (NJ), Marie Glusenkamp Perez (WA), and Tom Suozzi (NY).

Congress extends controversial surveillance powers for 10 days Earlier in the morning GOP leaders had pushed for either a five-year renewal or the 18-month renewal President Trump had demanded, but both votes tanked.

Sorry, running late, it's fascist bill preview for the week. For the second week in a row, neither KOSA or HR 7661 are on the schedule. In the House, none of the 17 bills are explicitly fascist. Not saying they are all good, just not fascist.

Also, reminder, FISA 702 was extended to April 30.

Primary filing has mostly closed for the midterms. We have to switch to supporting the people running against the most Trump-friendly Democrats.

it's so mind bending. it's already such a weak act of protest, but to fundraise/profit off of this is...i'm just so tired

The cis reaction Caitlyn Jenner stuff is like if every time a Kash Patel was in the news, the reaction online was mostly people calling him racial slurs and mocking his name for being Indian.

If you want to know if someone is transphobic, watch how they talk about trans people they don't like.

Good news: Steve deleted the post

Bad news: He didn't mention why, admit he was wrong, apologize, or say really anything about it

I think the Nazi symbol itself should probably have tipped you off but at least *some* come around

But like so many will admit they didn't know about all the other issues and details surrounding it and KEEP GOING

Frustrating as fuck

i think folks might be unfamiliar with "the pharisees", so let's make it clear: he's saying the jews run the press, and that they are conspiring to undermine the military. it's not just antisemitism, it's indistinguishable from nazism.

Also:

I really need to make this clear, but if you agree with Steve "I've Produced 3 Jeff Dunham Specials" Marmel here, then you're not an ally. You're just a fascist with a list of 'acceptable' targets.

He also produced three of Jeff Dunham's specials.

this is not a feel good story what is wrong with you ghouls

Frankly, if that parent's comment alienates you, you weren't an ally to begin with.

Wild that I instantly remember Steve's early 00s stand up special having a joke about bombing Iraq/Afghanistan. If memory serves the set-up was 'why don't you come down here and fight us face to face?' And the punch line being 'because we don't have to.'

Real peak post 9/11 comedy.

Ok trans peeps, huddle up.

If we want to get as much unconditional support from politicians as AI data centers we need to start turning millions of gallons of fresh water into heavy metal laced poison everyday and destroy local ecosystems.

ICE criminal illegal alien detainee from Cuba passes away in Miami Aled Damien Carbonell-Betancourt, 27, a criminal illegal alien from Cuba passed away in ICE custody.

Another person has died in the ICE concentration camps. Aled Damien Carbonell-Betancourt was only 27. The press release says he killed himself.

I get why people want to believe this is a way for Dems to take money from pro-AI people and then heel turn after the midterms, but the fact of the matter is nearly every Democrat in the House has already voted for three pro-AI bills. HR 5764 was the only one that needed more than a voice vote.

If I start screaming I won't be able to stop

In three weeks, Indiana and Ohio will go to the polls for their respective primaries. It is also a chance to defeat two Trump-friendly Democrats in the House: Frank Mrvan (IN-1) and the top Dem supporter of the Iran War, Greg Landsman (OH-1).

Pitting space exploration against social services is a false dichotomy. They’re both critically important, and we could absolutely afford both if we stopped dumping money into killing machines and taxed rich people their fair share.

Don’t get hung up attacking the wrong people.
