Genuinely and unironically proud of my colleagues at NPR news just for continuing their work telling the truth in the face of attacks from people who would prefer they would not do that.

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this? Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids. She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms. Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen. 🧵

🚨 🇺🇸 #ICEkidnappers grab two gardeners right off his front lawn—leave lawnmower running. "They left lawnmower going right here on my front lawn," homeowner said.

Like him or not (and I don’t) Tucker Carlson just fried Ted Cruz expertly and his well-hammered point about Cruz’s ignorance is spot on. Unfortunately, not knowing stuff and making dumb excuses for it is a badge of honor among the incompetent www.thedailybeast.com//ted-cruz-ab...

I often pay attention only to politicians who go out of their way to attract it. So I am often surprised (to my shame) to come across a pol I didn't know but should have. Here's Rep Adam Smith's (D-WA) opening statement at a hearing with Sec Hegseth. Starts at 7:00 www.c-span.org/program/hous...

The Senate Majority leader is lying

Imagine the positive impact our nation could make investing $134 Million in helping educate children and supporting immigrant families in crisis and providing a reasonable path to citizenship as they work to establish a better future.

DURBIN: How can we give hope to people across the country who are suffering from so many diseases when our government is cutting back on that research? RFK Jr: I do not know about any cuts to ALS research D: I just read them to you! R: I didn't know about them until you told me about them

Just keep on talking, Jr. let us know again and again what a contemptuous bottom feeder you are. Shameless grifter.

The SAVE Act would prevent millions of eligible Americans from voting, like ⬇️ People who can't afford a passport, married women & others who have changed their names. 🚨It's on each of us to demand elected officials #StopTheSAVEAct. Here's how you can take action🔗: www.splcenter.org/resources/ho...

The fight for voting rights never ends. Last month, Indiana passed a law banning the use of university-issued IDs as valid voter identification at the polls. The state allows far less secure IDs making this a “surgical attack on young voters.” Advocacy groups have filed suit. @lwvus.bsky.social

Full Victory for Democracy & the Rule of Law! After 6 months of the GOP trying to toss over 60,000 votes in the North Carolina Supreme Court race, Justice Riggs' opponent finally conceded. This is massive! Voter suppression will never prevail! The League of Women Voters never relented. Join us.

Pritzker: If you're not out there protesting in front of a Republican congressman's office, or out in the street making your voice heard, or calling your friends in another state to have them do it.. then you're not doing what's necessary to put pressure on them to vote the right way.

Page One in San Francisco: California ports are ground zero for worries about the lack of incoming Chinese imports — and the empty shelves to come. “This is going to be worse than during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Count me in.

The only thing standing between voters and voter suppression is the U.S. Senate. If 60 Senators vote for the SAVE Act, millions of voters will be disenfranchised and we're headed down the path of one-party-rule. We can't let that happen. Call your Senator or message now: bit.ly/4hZ7B…

So this is all just Kayfabe?

Legal experts say states could help married women who have changed their last names by accepting documents like a legal decree or a marriage certificate, but it might not fix the issue for all.

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Amazing crowd at Bernie in LA

NEW: It’s 5 p.m. ET, and DOJ is officially late on its first daily court-mandated report on the status of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. But! Abrego Garcia's attorneys have just asked Judge Xinis to order the govt to take these specific steps to return him: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Someone in the crowd is in medical distress while nurses are on stage at the fighting oligarchy rally. The nurses rush off stage to give medical aid

Here’s what the KY GOP did this week.

This. Is. So. Important. nonprofitquarterly.org/unite-in-adv...

Peter Navarro is one urinary tract infection away from having us all back on the gold standard huh?

apnews.com/article/just... We need more DOJ staff to speak up like this attorney

If due process is denied for anyone, it can be denied for you too. If anyone can be snatched off the streets, detained, and deported without due process, it can happen to you too. We demand due process is upheld for every single person.

boosting because good and we need more good

Remember: Republicans in Congress can put a stop to this at any time.

Absolutely agree. What a colossal waste of energy and potential. A pox on MAGA, tRUMP and all who have enabled this delusional dictator. America hangs its head in shame.

Cantwell: "I listened to your segment [with Lutnick]. I've never heard so much about fuzzy math in my life. The notion that that chart is getting so much national attention -- the letters and Greek alphabet and stuff that makes no sense -- that's what consumers are saying. How is this helping me?"

This man is a mendacious clown. Let’s be clear he has always been one.

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

Looked at real estate in Vancouver, BC today. Just wondering.

Is it just me, or is Little Marco Rubio losing a Little Bit More of his Soul every hour in the Trump Administration? As sad as it is, he should not be surprised. He made a deal with the Devil. It was a very bad bargain. He will have some explaining to do in the afterlife. Thoughts and prayers.

First they came for your due process rights, and you said nothing for you had not committed a crime. Then they came for your right to privacy, and you said nothing for you had nothing to hide. Then they came for your free speech rights, and you said nothing.
