@vanhollen.senate.gov thank you for leading the way to get Garcia (and the others!) home!

Republicans know their agenda is unpopular with the American people. It would decimate health care and Social Security for so many people. And they're doing all of this to pay for tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. youtube.com/shorts/IZoD_...

Today’s letter 3/ @chuckschumer.com @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @meng.house.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social How are you all going to convince Republican members of Congress - especially those from our own state - to stand up to Trump and stop the slide to autocracy? Please fight for us.

Today’s letter 2/ @chuckschumer.com @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @meng.house.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social We have to fight the direction Trump is taking our country. I follow you on social media and press releases on your website - I KNOW you are going after all the issues I care about.

Today’s letter to @chuckschumer.com @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social @meng.house.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social 1/ The frightening executive order from our President yesterday that demands investigations of Krebs and Taylor is a terrible turn of events.

The decision by who, Mike?

This is really great advice!!

@weissmann11.bsky.social gives advice about what ordinary citizens can do to stand up for democracy. Look at @justsecurity.org ’s litigation tracker. Find an advocacy group bringing a case you care about. Consider volunteering with them or donating.

@rupadc.bsky.social you were so amazing on Daily Show Monday - thanks for shout out to NY delegation, dems and republicans.

@mattbaidc.bsky.social thank you for reporting to us on Musk actions at USAID and Treasury.

I thought I’d look up what other sources of foreign aid the US has other than USAID. The PEW article I was reading is below. It’s interesting that the percentage of the federal budget that we spend on foreign aid is smaller than the amount we borrow each year to cover our expenditures.

"The increase to Musk's wealth since Trump was elected president three months ago is greater than all of the American aid given to Ukraine over the last three years."-- @timothysnyder.bsky.social

Listening to #sistersinlaw Stay strong everyone!

This story from my home state. I just subscribed and donated to the Clarksdale Press Register.

@indivisiblequeens.bsky.social good meeting last night! Looking forward to action!

NY Gov. Kathy Hochul’s response: “We are a nation of laws, not ruled by a king. The MTA has initiated legal proceedings in the Southern District of New York to preserve this critical program. We’ll see you in court.”

TOMORROW: We’re rallying at the Treasury building with @moveon.org to stop Elon Musk’s hostile takeover and tell this unelected billionaire to get his hands off our money. We hope you can join us if you’re in the D.C. area.

In a global first, Uganda’s Ministry of Health, the World Health Organization (WHO) and other partners today launched a first-ever vaccine trial for Ebola from the Sudan species of the virus, and at an unprecedented speed for a randomized vaccine trial in an emergency.🧵

The fossil was found at a cliff in Denmark. Fossilized vomit is called regurgitalite, and it's a type of trace fossil, which tells scientists about an organism's daily life.

The 5 Calls app to call your representatives is terrific. Issues, talking points, easy links to call DC or local phone numbers.

Bingham started doing these drawings two days after the fires began. She realized she couldn’t afford to donate to all of her friend’s recovery funds. So she put out a call on Instagram asking people to send her pictures of their homes, which she'd draw for free. via @kcrw.com
