At the very same time Fox is criticizing Gavin Newsom for attending a fundraiser for cancer research, Donald Trump is at his country club in NJ hosting a high-dollar fundraiser for himself with fat-cat mega donors while we are on the brink of war..

Same here.

Let's be absolutely clear: physically assaulting a US Senator for simply asking a question is disgraceful. We stand with Senator Padilla and all those peacefully defending working people against this administration's attacks.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

The Court of International Trade panel that unanimously struck down Trump's "Liberation Day" and other IEEPA tariffs included a Reagan, Obama, and Trump appointee. Credit to all for defending the rule of law. Perhaps Congress could come out of hiding and do its part to help in this good cause?

Check out today’s West Point graduation speech and Trump’s meander speech - mostly about Trump’s victimhood - while wearing a red M hat. Disgusting, disgraceful and disrespect.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

He stood there on Jan 20 and falsely mouthed the words to protect and defend our Constitution. Asked now on Meet the Press if he thinks he needs to uphold the Constitution, he says, “I don’t know.” Translation: No. Woe to America and the utter failure of putting this man back in our Oval Office.

www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/o... We’re loosing a generation of our best and brightest young leaders because they want to serve the public welfare. Trump’s intentionally cruel firing of these federal employees is shortsighted and dangerous. Expertise is being replaced by ideology.

It’s a beautiful thing to see people put aside their differences, their politics, and unite in their love of country. Well done, Canada. 🇨🇦 Your citizens stood on guard for thee.

Senator Van Hollen’s visit with Garcia is a victory for due process and the rule of law. It’s also a sign that Trump’s caving in again to public pressure. Let’s keep the pressure on and hold the person responsible for this mess accountable. And, work to bring the others home too.

Yesterday, one of our adult children was again fired without cause by DOC because she was a probationary employee. The cruelty these people have endured is akin to torture. And, our government is loosing a generation of future scientific leaders. Speak up, use your vote to resist whenever possible.
