If the Republicans want to force everyone to have a specific voter ID in order to register to vote, they should also mandate that a convenient and free voter ID be provided to all American citizens.

The LRAD truck I discovered (same plate) last July outside Minnesota State Capitol is being used for 1st time (AFAIK) in MN tonight against protesters.

Terrifying sonic weapon.

Fed court (2nd Cir) ruled using LRAD on non violent protesters can be considered 14A violation, excessive force

Trump DOJ PANICS as MILLIONS OF NEW Epstein Files SURFACE?!?! YouTube video by Katie Phang

Wow: Not sure we've ever heard Katie Phang this fired up. As an attorney herself, Katie has a whole lot to say about the DOJ suddenly "finding" 1 million more Epstein docs.

@hollybfletcher.bsky.social Reading your book right now. As an MK from DRC and UBAC, who is now helping my mother write her autobiography, I'm noting all kinds of interesting things. Thank you for your work.

Not authoritarian or fascist at all. Not one bit.

The One Trump Flaw Most Americans Can’t Tolerate Democrats should emphasize not that the president is corrupt or inmoral, but that he is incompetent.

"Americans already understood Trump to be corrupt, and proved themselves willing to tolerate that," Peter Wehner and Robert P. Beschel Jr. argue. "But now they are coming to believe that he is inept. In American politics, that is an unforgivable sin":

We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families. For many months, these independent journalists have been the world's eyes and ears on the ground in Gaza. They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering. Journalists endure many deprivations and hardships in warzones. We are deeply alarmed that the threat of starvation is now one of them. We once again urge the Israeli authorities to allow journalists in and out of Gaza. It is essential that adequate food supplies reach the people there. Joint statement on Gaza from AFP, AP, BBC News and Reuters

BREAKING: JOINT STATEMENT FROM REUTERS, BBC NEWS, ASSOCIATED PRESS & AFP.

Warning that their staff face death by starvation in Gaza.

Horrifying and unprecedented.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

After visiting two more ICE facilities, we have more evidence to confirm that the Trump Administration is:

Overcrowding facilities.
Denying access to medical care and legal counsel.
Creating inhumane confinement conditions.

NONE of it makes us safer.

Why can't this food be sent to Gaza? Or Yemen? South Sudan? Ukraine? What a waste. This regime is incompetent and cruel.

Warnock: "I rise tonight in a moral moment in our nation ... if this awful budget were an EKG it would suggest that our nation has a heart problem and is in need of moral surgery."

Absolutely INHUMANE

It’s wild that the only time Republicans speak out against Trump is when they’re on their way out of Congress

It's on hold at the library!

Some spring beauty to keep you going.

With this awful terror attack in Colorado, Congress needs to ask how many federal resources have been pulled from counterterrorism to deport Hispanics?

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

wow -- @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com chokes up while talking about how the Trump administration is killing kids who relied on USAID to get life-saving medicine

Communications tip for Democrats:

Go on local TV and radio stations and explain what the GOP tax bill will do.

Don't focus on the national press.

Be hyper local.

Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners?

TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

The EPA Will Likely Gut Team That Studies Health Risks From Chemicals Reorganizations at the EPA may get rid of the agency’s fundamental program for research around the risks of toxic chemicals.

“Unfortunately, right now, it looks like the polluters won.”

Experts say that the mass of scientists being forced out of the EPA will slow down any future regulation of chemicals.
