As we’ve warned before, the Trump administration has subjected around 80 staffers to lie detector tests. America, please understand—this is not normal.
If there's one thing I've learned during my time in Congress, it's that when you come for people's health care, you'll have hell to pay. We have a long way to go, but keep speaking out. Keep making noise. Keep demanding accountability. It's the only way we can stop them.
This is a massive sign that Republicans are feeling the heat on their plans to gut Medicaid. That's only possible because of the noise you guys have been making. They know their plan to kick people off health care isn't a popular one, and the division is starting to show.
I wanted to share this news from over the weekend: During Senate Republicans' all night voting marathon on their billionaire bailout, I offered an amendment to protect Medicaid. It didn't pass, but 3 Republicans voted for it. Here's why that's important:
People packed the streets across the U.S. on Saturday to protest against President Trump, his administration's cutbacks, financial turmoil and more. nyti.ms/43GRvS7
Millions of people took to the streets yesterday to send a message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Even during these dark days, remember that you are not alone. Solidarity.
Our coalition is everywhere and nowhere—and that’s exactly how it must stay. But America, we are so proud of you. You did it. You’re amazing, and we are honored to serve you.
Many of our coalition members are heading out tonight to celebrate. Raise a glass to freedom, and America let’s have another round tonight. If you met coalition members today, remember one thing: the first rule of Fight Club is—you do not talk about Fight Club.
West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

but there are no federal or State laws prohibiting the principles of DEI,"says the letter.
The NY dept says it already follows civil rights laws, including Title VI.
New York Dept of Education says it will not comply with the US Dept of Ed's order to certify their schools are getting rid of DEI programs.

Elon Musk is spending millions of dollars to elect Brad Schimel, a conservative judge in Wisconsin, to the State Supreme Court. If he succeeds, conservatives will retake a 4-to-3 majority and be in a position to push the state rightward on issues like abortion, labor rights and congressional maps.
The Trump administration's efforts to end DEI programs is hitting some unexpected targets, including a nationwide effort planting shade trees in neighborhoods to reduce extreme heat.

Americans are going hungry under Trump. Food banks across the country — already strained by deep cuts to locally grown food programs — the U.S. Department of Agriculture is canceling $500 million in expected food deliveries, further disrupting aid as demand continues to grow.
Let’s work together. If you have any extra food, please consider donating it to your local food bank.
The Trump administration has stopped the tracking of thousands of abducted Ukrainian children in Russia and Belarus. And a US lawmaker says in a letter to Sec. Marco Rubio that US officials or contractors might have deleted a database on the children. Story: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/u...
A 25-year-old Musk staffer violated Treasury policies by emailing an unencrypted database containing personal information to two Trump administration officials.
Trump signed an executive order to dismantle seven federal agencies: the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, the U.S. Agency for Global Media, the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, the Institute of Museum and Library Services,
the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, and the Minority Business Development Agency.
Materials on the Arlington National Cemetery website highlighting the graves of Black and female service members have vanished. The cemetery, which is operated by the Army, said it was working to restore the content. Among the obscured pages was material about civil rights.
We’ve already seen threats against federal employees escalate. Reckless statements like this only put them at greater risk.
This kind of rhetoric isn’t just misleading—it’s dangerous. It fuels hostility toward public servants and encourages people to see them as enemies rather than the essential workers who educate our kids, protect our communities, maintain infrastructure, and provide critical services.
WTF?!? Elon Musk reposted this on X before quietly deleting it:
“Stalin, Mao, and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people. Their public sector employees did.”
CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.
Tomorrow is the cloture vote.
KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️
Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.
Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
the tesla protest might objectively be among the most successful in history already just in terms of immediate response, if you consider they forced the world’s most powerful person & its most wealthy to fully degrade themselves like used car salesmen on live TV while the whole world watched agog.
