I’ve got a long list of people who have been committing fraud and abusing government programs in the last two years, but I don’t think they’ll be willing to investigate them. Trump and Vance announce $25M whistleblower program to encourage public to report alleged fraud apnews.com/article/trum...

Happy National Coming Out Day! 🌈 Planned Parenthood is celebrating the “courage it takes to live your truth out loud,” and so am I. Congratulations to everyone who is able to live their truth. For those not ready or able, know there are many of us who support you.

Before the US attacked Iran, Iranians were protesting against their country. Now they’re rallying in support of it. Tell me again how great the war is going. Iranians rally by the hundreds of thousands in biggest show of defiance since war began apnews.com/article/iran...

Is it me? Wouldn’t we all be better off concentrating on peaceful, diplomatic solutions instead of planning to expand our destruction of planet earth to the universe? apnews.com/article/spac...

Here’s a novel idea. How about Texas voters come to their senses and sink Paxton’s and Abbott’s political careers. It’s long past time for Texans to vote in the best interest of Texas, not for grifters and sycophants who don’t give a shit about what helps or hurts their constituents. Wake up!

If the American people don’t overwhelmingly reject and repudiate what is happening with this govt, Republican Congress, and Supreme Court this November, then this Republic is doomed. We can survive a criminal regime for a short term, but we can’t survive an ignorant populace.

Had an obviously elderly gentleman come in to interview for an opening in the kitchen today. Not my dept so idk if he was hired but I’m so disheartened that in the richest country on earth we have seniors who still NEED to work because social security isn’t enough to live on. The Darlene Graham way.

I’ve been demonized for being pragmatic and demonized for being too progressive. It’s the prob of the Dem party in a nutshell. How about we stop fighting each other and direct our animosity towards the real threats. And do it without nasty name calling…there’s enough of that with the GOP.

Seriously. This isn’t news to anyone who’s paying attention. www.ms.now/news/frame-u...

Oh, I have lots of ideas…most of them not suitable for public viewing. www.usatoday.com/story/news/s...

I’m sorry…Darlene Graham with zero public service experience over two congressman and a former governor? I thought the Senate was where you strive to serve after proving yourself in other roles. How stupid are republican voters in South Carolina? Oh, right. Never mind.

One can only hope! www.ms.now/news/who-kil...

In other words, the GOP has secured enough votes to confirm Blanche, so Collins has been given permission to vote no to provide cover during her reelection campaign. Hope Maine doesn’t fall for it. www.ms.now/news/todd-bl...

Trump’s proposed arch would break the physical and symbolical uniting of North and South intended by the layout of current monuments, according to a report by National Park Service. Trump disrupting unity…no surprise there.

“evidence prosecutors had recently received refuted the idea that vandals were to blame.” Duh. Doubt this will be covered on FOX, or that the admin and right wing media will even stop blaming vandals. Alternative facts will continue making the rounds. apnews.com/article/refl...

“Musk’s Economist interview and subsequent freakout ought to have laid waste to the myth that he’s an irreplaceable, fearless visionary and we should bet humanity’s future on the financial success of his business ventures.” www.ms.now/opinion/elon...

Warnings of obvious damage to worldwide influence ignored. Needless suffering at home and abroad. Now the scramble to regain something that we may never get back. The GOP allowed Musk and Trump to do this. Hold them all accountable. apnews.com/article/trum...

Midterms around the corner. Americans screaming about the cost of living. Trump doesn’t care, but are Republicans really this stupid…or are they hoping voters are? Trump imposes double-digit tariffs on dozens of countries as his 10% levies are set to expire Friday apnews.com/article/trum...

The choice is clear America. “Bullets and bombs” or food and healthcare. The GOP America First agenda was bullshit, as many of us said. Their priorities have never been clearer. House Republicans adopt $95 billion package for the Iran war and Trump's priorities apnews.com/article/gop-...

Well, South Carolina, it’s up to you now. A totally unqualified rep who knows nothing about policy or politics and will simply vote how she’s told, or someone with experience who will fight for the ppl of your state. www.ms.now/news/darline...

It’s definitely what America should have always been about, and certainly what many of us believe it can be.

$95 billion for an unnecessary, illegal war that is causing death & inflation but no $ for anything working class ppl need. The GOP is doing this all on their own and call it a win. America, are you awake yet? Pressure your reps to vote no and vote them out if they don’t! apnews.com/article/hous...

Woefully under-reported and nothing short of corrupt and immoral. Unfortunately, a cornerstone of this administration. And Rubio wants to be president one day? www.ms.now/opinion/marc...

Reposting, for posterity.

With so many voters calling for ICE to be abolished, why are DEM reps cosponsoring a bill that empowers them and further erodes our privacy? Actions speak louder than words. @klobuchar.senate.gov @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social @markwarner.bsky.social www.ms.now/opinion/ice-...

Sure, because ASSAULT weapons are needed for self defense. You’d think with the mass murder rates in the US the Supreme Court would realize how ridiculous this is, but why should they start considering the real world consequences of their rulings now. apnews.com/article/supr...

So the entire GOP are members of the mob now. They’re not just willing to put up with the corruption, they actively want to shield the administration from any consequences. Hope ever remembers this in November. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Maybe it’s not about political power but the power of the message. Maybe enough voters are realizing that capitalism doesn’t benefit the working class and that it’s better to elect reps who fight for policies that benefit them. One can hope. apnews.com/article/dona...

Ballots from the last election seized, Ohio voting rights org raided by the FBI, CA primaries being investigated for no reason, the push to pass the SAVE Act, racist gerrymandering and now the GOP blocks legislation to ban troops at the polls. The clock is ticking. www.ms.now/news/troops-...

Reauthorization of Section 702 is set to expire on June 12. Link to the full roll call from the last authorization is in the article. If you see your rep’s name on the list followed by a “yea,” you know what to do. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

The incompetence and hubris of this administration and the harm it’s doing to the reputation of the US is incomparable. Everything is a game to them. And they all need to learn how to shut their mouths and stay off social media. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

To all the loyal MAGA followers and pardoned J6 criminals…open your eyes. It was NEVER about you, and it never will be. You’re just tools and patsy’s. Trump went from $10B for “charity” to $1.776B for J6 criminals and allies to stop coming after me and mine for tax fraud. Not hard to see the ruse.

The problem at CBS is not the executive producer of 60 minutes. Calling for 'new approach,' CBS News leader Bari Weiss replaces executive producer at '60 Minutes' apnews.com/article/cbs-...

Hey @fetterman.senate.gov. Following up my email and phone call. If you’re contemplating voting for the illegal Trump slush fund to reward insurrectionists and enrich regime allies or the ridiculous, also illegal, ballroom vanity project, the answer is NO. We’re still watching.

What are you thinking @colorado.gov? This is exactly why so many people have issues with the Democratic Party. Stupid decision, especially just before the midterms when voters are looking for fighters. An unnecessary shot in the foot. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Women’s health and access to abortion remains on the ballot. The GOP is working to reverse all methods of family planning. SCOTUS is protecting access to mifepristone for now, but we need the right to choose codified, not attacked. Remember this when you’re at the ballot box.

“Anyone who believes in multiracial democracy needs to understand where power is actually built in this country. State legislatures draw the maps. Governors sign the laws. State courts interpret voting rules. Secretaries of state oversee elections. America’s democracy is shaped in the states.”

As a recovering catholic, I hope all those devout right wingers who love Trump are paying attention…to his actions and the lack of outrage from the GOP. Time for them to choose between false prophets and the true leader of the catholic faith. Damnation or salvation? www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

I don’t think the Trump regime and the GOP could have screwed this up more if they tried. We went from a fully open Strait to a formal agency imposing tariffs in under 3mo. Iran creates new agency to control shipping in Strait of Hormuz while reviewing peace deal with US apnews.com/article/iran...

Bravo to University of Michigan Professor Derek R. Peterson for not backing down and showing that empathy for Palestinians is not antisemitism and free speech is something we should fight vigorously to protect. Shame on the University for not supporting those ideals.

Suspending the primary by claiming there’s an emergency. Redrawing maps in the middle of an election. Eliminating positions that were legally won because you don’t like the candidate voters chose. Louisiana seems to be leading the South’s Jim Crow 2.0 push. Despicable. apnews.com/article/new-...

SCOTUS gutted the VRA. Today, a court restricted the distribution of mifepristone. Both decisions made to further a right wing agenda to re-enslave woman & minorities. We need clear legislation passed that doesn’t allow partisan interpretation. We need a progressive wave! apnews.com/article/abor...

Amazon laying off tens of thousands and imposing a fuel surcharge on private sellers while profits surge, all due to AI. Greed rules and this trend, which exasperates income inequality, will grow until we all start placing more value on ppl than we do on convenience. apnews.com/article/amaz...

Given the Court’s disgraceful decision to gut the voting rights act, two things need to happen. States controlled by DEMS need to gerrymander to combat the unfair advantage red states are trying to enact, and we need to vote like democracy depends on it, because it does! apnews.com/article/voti...

Perfect branding for MAGA supporters, even if they’re not wearing the red cap. Are Americans not hated enough overseas? Glad ppl can at least opt out of having his pic on their passport, I just hope they realize before it’s issued. Should read “for cult members only.” apnews.com/article/pass...
