Minnesota State Rep. Jessica Hanson (DFL) responds to Elon Musk/xAI suing to stop a bill to ban AI nudification technology: "When the richest man in the world hangs out with the Epstein class ... we cannot act surprised when he's trying to protect the #1 tool used to make CSAM."

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

The Republican debate among candidates vying to face Jon Ossoff in Georgia devolved into Rep. Buddy Carter and Rep. Mike Collins exchanging accusations about who is the most ethically compromised

Democracy is at stake! WE ALL KNOW IT, But what are we going to do about it? I hope you'll consider doing a phone bank for the April 21 Virginia election that could literally determine the fate of our democracy. #VirginiaVoteYES Phonebanks are empowering, fun & easy. LINK⬇️

Virginia voters have real power right now — the kind that can actually change the balance of Congress before November. That window closes April 21. Vote YES while you still can. #VirginaVoteYes

My friends and fellow activists, I can’t join you on the streets today-but am with you in spirit We have always abhorred monarchy in America. It is anathema to our very core So when our president and his cabinet kill innocent people, imprison babies and start wars We must rise, together #NoKings

Rena Korb reposted

Kings rule by fear. They make people afraid to speak up. Trump wants us scared and quiet. We will not be. If you are looking for real time updates and voices of the resistance at #NoKings events around the country today this is a good place to start. Please share and follow. ❤️ go.bsky.app/K6JGV3h

Trump didn't vote by mail because he was sick. Not because he was traveling. Not because of a disability. Not military service. He was literally AT his Florida estate with polling places open nearby. There is no principle here. There never was. #TrumpVotesByMail

Rena Korb reposted

Trump voted by mail in 2020, 2024, and again in 2026. Each time he condemned the practice publicly. This pattern reveals the truth: he wants voting access for himself while systematically dismantling it for ordinary citizens across America. #TrumpVotesByMail

21 million Americans don't have ready access to the documents the Save Act demands. Half of Americans don't even own a passport. This bill doesn't stop fraud — it stops citizens. Spread the word. #SAVEActTaxesVoting

If you are an Ohioan and not wealthy, you need to vote for a better human than Senator Husted to represent you.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Husted: "People living in poverty are just not very, um, experienced at navigating the real world, right? I remember talking to one young lady who said, 'Well, I don't really know how money works at a grocery store,' bc she grew up & has lived all of her adult life using SNAP cards to buy groceries"

Pundits think Democrats will take back the House in November But folks-I’m telling you now If we REALLY want to change our government and stop the Trump junta We need to grab control of the Senate, too And that starts with Roy Cooper in North Carolina Game on, people! Take NOTHING for granted

MS NOW@ms.now

The final field for one of the country’s most closely watched Senate races is set: Former North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper, a Democrat, will face off against Michael Whatley, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, in November’s general election. www.ms.now/news/north-c...

Trump's brain flits wildly from Mamdani to shoveling snow to having a conversation with a woman in the audience who has bad eyes. He claims he "gave her a lot of money to get her eyes fixed." This event is totally off the rails.

Happening now 💥💥Hundreds of high school & middle school kids walk out of school to protest ICE! These kids will join students from many more schools in the area to show US what democracy looks and to tell ICE to get melted. ICE OUT NOW

What do you think it's like in ICE detention while pregnant? A LIVING NIGHTMARE! Foul water! Inedible food! No medical attention! ICE is ignoring DHS policy & detaining pregnant women. Call your Senators NOW and tell them no funding the government until there's accountability! 202-224-3121

Rena Korb reposted

These untrained and uneducated ICE savages JUST CAUSED AN INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT! Call your senators and demand accountability! Not one more penny for DHS or ICE. ABOLISH ICE & break up the Department of Homeland Security & restore agencies to how it used to be before Bush mucked things up.

Jack Smith looked Congress in the eye and said it: Trump’s criminal activity was proven beyond a reasonable doubt. He’d prosecute any former president on the same facts, party be damned. No one is above the law.

It sounds like these goondas are being told that 18 U.S.C. 111 means they can arrest anyone who protests or “opposes” them. They seem to have missed the “forcibly” part. Also, not for nothing, but this crime is a misdemeanor www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

🚨House Democrats and 17 Republicans just came together to pass a 3-year extension of the ACA subsidies. Now it's time for my Republican colleagues in the Senate to step up and send this bill to the President’s desk. 24 million Americans are counting on us.
