There are flyers circulating and even mailers showing up in people’s mailboxes in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District that list the wrong date for the upcoming special election. Voters are being told to vote on the incorrect day.

He continues to treat Russia like it didn’t start the war
REPORTER: What kind of concessions are the Russians going to have to make?

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. There’s no vote required if he wants to release them!

The only reason the house was voting was because he refused.

This is an obviously cynical ploy and major news outlets are running whole pieces without pointing this out. He could release them tonight.
If he has nothing to hide he doesn’t need a House vote. He can just release everything.
Trump now says House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files “because we have nothing to hide”

The answer Sen, Shaheen is that since America elected the Black man to be president, the official position of the Republican Party is “not to work together with Democrats to address the problems that are facing this country.”
Shaheen: "When I talk to my constituents in New Hampshire, you know what they say to me? They say, 'Why can't you all just work together to address the problems that are facing this country?'"

The problem with the “wait till Trump voters start suffering” theory of political change is that it requires people to suffer.

No one should face financial ruin because they got sick or needed medical care.

Healthcare is a basic human right.

These premium increases will ruin people.

It will put people on the streets.

It will end lives.

It will cause more disability.

That barista who makes your coffee just right.

The cook at your favorite diner.

Your kind neighbor who is on deployment.

They all have jobs. They all need SNAP to make ends meet.

When Trump & the GOP deride those who need some help, understand who they are talking about.

It’s people like you.

The Trump Admin found $20 billion to bail out Argentina but refuses to tap into a $6 billion reserve fund to provide vital food assistance to 42 million Americans.

They’re using food and hunger as leverage as they hold the government hostage. Sickening.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

The role of teachers "is to teach kids how to think, not what to think,” says @rweingarten.bsky.social in response to the conservative push to influence school curriculum. She says students should be taught a variety of different perspectives so they can become “free thinkers.” #Velshi
President of the American Federation of Teachers: Critical Thinking Is Under Attack
President of the American Federation of Teachers Randi Weingarten warns teachers are under attack as a way to undermine critical thinking in schools. “The framers of this constitution of ours understood that critical thinking was absolutely key to stopping tyrants,” she said. “When you see all these propagandists try to undermine critical thinking, they are trying to stop our kids from being able to understand fact from fiction, to understand disinformation and misinformation.”

Do your job. You failed to lift this up in 2024. If farmers are hurting, explain why and who is to blame. And remind Americans that we paid BILLIONS for Trump’s first tariff blunder. It’s so irresponsible to ignore this.
Right. Same thing as 2020 [see below].Through 2 debates and a session on Economics in Chicago during the 2024 campaign I never heard a reporter bring up the cost of the 2020 tariffs & the bailout to farmers WE paid for to cover Trump’s tariff folly. I’m sick of it.

It's as if Putin gave Trump a checklist:
- Wreck US-led global order thru tariffs, torching of UN Charter, burning our alliances
- Weaken US security by undermining NATO, disabling cyber
- Elevate Putin, trash Zelensky
- Gut US soft power (USAID, global media) & global scientific leadership
- This 👇
Good lord.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of.
They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.
