Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates. Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

Hillary Rodham Clinton@hillaryclinton.bsky.social

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Shoutout to Adam Schiff for saying what Republicans won’t—Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires are moving forward, and working people are about to lose their healthcare. Next: make every House Republican vote on it. Let them show us who they really work for.

If the word “biowarfare” doesn’t send a chill down your spine—I admire you.

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️ Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines. He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Will the anti-GMO crowd be happy with laboratory, hastily designed, solutions provide the replacement to their morning cup of coffee?

Excited for all the new American banana and coffee factories.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

That’s what people voted for, right? Unbelievable.

The White House has just released a new official statement as the economy crashes: “The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

Raskin: We even have the right to call the president deranged for crashing our economy, destroying $6 trillion of wealth and turning our 401(k) Into a 201 (K). And the press has the right to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of Mexico.

Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power: “It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

“But her emails”

Alt National Park Service@altnps.bsky.social

The incompetence of this Administration never ceases to amaze. Waltz and other NSC members used Gmail to conduct official government business, with Waltz’s staff even sharing information about sensitive military positions and advanced weapon systems tied to an ongoing conflict.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Cory Booker. Wow! To do this whilst talking about things that matter - incredible stamina and passion. Anyone who isn't impressed is dead inside and beyond help.

Dingo Red reposted

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

Going to call Reagan a RINO now too? They’re lost the plot.

Jennings: These district court judges, they find the most lunatic liberals they can. Phillip: Lunatic liberal judges like a George W. Bush appointee, like Ronald Reagan appointee, like a Donald Trump appointee, like another Ronald Reagan appointee, like another George W. Bush appointee…

Associated Press: “Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office.“

“Sorry judge, it was a mistake.” That’s a good move, Cotton. Let’s see how that plays out.

Jon Cooper@joncooper-us.bsky.social

Treasury Department officials admitted today that the agency “mistakenly” and “briefly” gave a member of Musk’s DOGE team the power to alter a sensitive federal payments database. The disclosure undercuts the Trump administration’s repeated claims that access was limited to a “read-only” basis.

Is anyone tuned into right wing media who can answer a question: Are they blaming all of these disease outbreaks (Tuberculosis for example) on migrants? I’ve heard this knee jerk reaction twice now in conversations with people. It feels like a planted seed.

Too big to fail The big short The automotive bailout Enron You know what happened Wall Street created huge problems. America bailed them out. The rich got richer. Very few paid a price. And the little guy got screwed Until Obama created the CFPB Now Trump wants to let them do it All Over Again

Steve Rattner@steverattner.bsky.social

The CFPB is a great return on investment for Americans: it’s turned over $20 billion to the public from companies committing abusive & illegal business practices, far outpacing its operating costs.

Wow! So…REDLINING!?

The US DOT says it's planning to prioritize areas with high marriage & high birth rates for funding. Our new analysis @urbaninstitute.bsky.social shows this would disproportionately fund: —Communities with a higher white resident share —Low-density areas —High-income areas —Car-dependent areas

“Trump has distanced himself and knows nothing about P2025!” -unfortunate souls fooled by misinformation campaigns.
