The largest school districts in North Carolina are all shutting down for May Day at the request of the teachers' union. 1 million union members in New Jersey are backing a large May Day action. May Day is gonna be HUGE this year w/ strikes in at least 85 cities! paydayreport.com/n-c-largest-...

In 2010 Florida voters amended their Constitution to prevent partisan gerrymandering Now DeSantis says-without any judicial order or new law-that the Supreme Court is “signaling” a change So he wants to invalidate the Constitutional amendment THAT THE VOTERS JUST APPROVED #StopIllegalFloridaMaps

FFS he just attacked the Pope

Today, Speaker Johnson and House Republicans once again refused to pass the Senate's bill to fully fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. Do your jobs: Quit blocking this and focus on getting prices down and ending Trump’s illegal war!

Odd, how a lone gunman failed to even enter a targeted room and no one was harmed—and Republicans go HYSTERICAL over the “tone” of Democrats. And yet heavily armed and masked fascists murdered two people at point-blank range in the streets of Minneapolis—and not a peep about the “tone” of the right.

Melania attacks satire and the First Amendment anntelnaes.substack.com/p/melania-at...

63% of Florida voters voted to ban drawing maps to favor a political party. The people spoke. DeSantis doesn’t care. #StopIllegalFloridaMaps

DeSantis is pulling a Trump attempting to override voters in the sunshine state. He wants to eliminate 4 democratic seats—NO! #StopIllegalFloridaMaps

Terrific take on the intellectually bankrupt use of "both sides" by the lazier members of the corporate media.

First Lady Melania Trump also supported the false, racist birtherism claim that Barack Obama wasn’t born in America and has essentially NEVER criticized her husband for any of the incendiary things he’s said, so she can sit right down and shut up

People claiming that Jimmy Kimmel was hoping for the assassination of Donald Trump are so silly. There are PLENTY of ways for Melania to become a widow that wouldn't involve an assassination.

The lawfare against me by Trump’s team continues. After losing 2x in fed court (dismissed with prejudice), Richard Grenell is appealing. We know Kash Patel helped fund it—he’s using the same lawyers to sue The Atlantic. Timing? Right after I launched my Democratic congressional campaign in Virginia.

General Jim Mattis, Trump’s first Secretary of Defense, wrote an op-ed in which he compared Trump to a nazi In an interview, Trump’s former chief of staff John Kelly called him a fascist IT’S HIS OWN PEOPLE-who know the truth after working closely with him-that called Trump a threat to democracy

This proves that the Hilton hotel management didn't ask the Trump administration what it should do with the uneaten food. Good on the hotel for being staffed by people far more compassionate than anyone serving in the Trump administration.

FLORIDA - pay attention! DeSantis’s proposed maps have been released. And they make the state almost entirely red. Before you say, but Virginia, that was an empowerment decided by the people via a vote. This is a decree. #StopIllegalFloridaMaps floridapolitics.com/archives/793...

Trump started this gerrymandering fight. Dem's voted for the John Lewis Voting Rights Act to END gerrymandering nationwide. EVERY single Republican voted NO. Dem's still want fair map. The question is, do Republican's want fair elections or just safe seats for themselves?

A lot of people are mad at Merz for saying this, but where’s the lie? It’s really easy to get into a conflict. Getting out cleanly is a whole different animal.

Absolutely terrible framing of this question. Heated rhetoric? Does she read Trump’s Truth Social posts?

What is this just out of curiosity

It should go without saying that, just because some bad people want to criminally do harm to other bad people, that does not mean that any of the bad people are not, in fact, bad people.

I posted this on the other website, and many people got very upset. My response:

TRUMP: I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody O'DONNELL: Oh, you think he was referring to you?

This is a good time to re-read the decision in Carroll v. Trump.

Norah O'Donnell's "Oh, so you think he's referring to you?" to Donald Trump's "I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody" ranks with Dan Rather's "No, sir, Mr. President. Are you?" to Richard Nixon's "Are you running for something?" as the best reporter's retort of all time.

Welcome to the “second as farce” edition of the Reichstag Fire.

Remember when Bush, Obama, and Biden insisted people who criticize them are fired?

Why does Trump only fire women now?

Trump Claims Correspondents’ Dinner Shooting Reinforces Need To End Journalism https://theonion.com/trump-claims-correspondents-dinner-shooting-reinforces-need-to-end-journalism/

I talked to Jamie Raskin about his explosive exchange with CNN's Dana Bash. "The media should understand that the survival of the free press is at stake right now," he tells me. "There is only one party in America trying to censor and control the press.” New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2095...

See what happens the second you press him. He short‑circuits.

Opinion | I was a lifelong liberal Democrat. Then I learned that the WHCD shooter gave $25 on ActBlue in 2024.

For many Trump cabinet members the tragedy of last night’s incident at the WHCD is that the room was evacuated before drinks were served.

The left’s almost jocular response to last night’s gunfire at the White House Correspondents Dinner stood in marked contrast to the somber tone adopted by Republicans in the wake of the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi

Basically this. We can’t turn into MAGA and just assume everything is rigged, staged, stolen, etc. Let the investigation play out.

None of these MAGA morons seem to realize the WHCD isn’t actually hosted by the White House.

You might have seen me on your TV or on a podcast, now I want to hear from YOU! ​Join me for a happy hour on the Upper West Side on Thursday, May 7th at 6:30 PM. ​Looking forward to meeting you! RSVP Here: conway4ny.org/HappyHourUWS

Thank you Donald Trump 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

#25thAmendmentNow In the middle of a war no one wanted but he initiated that is rooling the world's economy, Trump wants you to know he is on the job by posting about how he is modifying the reflecting pool at the Lincoln Memorial and has "fixed" the Lafayette Park Fountain.

The photographer must have waited AGES until the clouds were all identically sized and positioned! (Or, alternatively, Trump had the original image photoshopped because he's a lying fraud.)

If Ruben Gallego knew about Eric Swalwell's sexual misconduct and didn't report it, he is every bit as culpable as Swalwell himself. by Jim Jordan

As a DC reporter, I don't endorse mindless war, militarized cities, illegal abductions, defunded medical research, government insider trading, and mass pardons of violent criminals. But in the name of our norms, tonight I will break bread and share laughs with the president who did all of this.

🚨BREAKING: Internal emails between DOJ personnel suggest that, from the very outset of the effort to obtain sensitive voter data from states — much earlier than previously known — officials there planned to share it with the DHS. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The tasteless, classless, orange clown is destroying our capital.
