The one who had the power to stop the destruction of our health policy, by stopping the RFK Jr. nomination. It could not have passed out of committee. Kennedy has now dismantled vaccine policy at the national level,in contradiction of science. Every death is on Cassidy.

The earth is round.

The sky is blue.

The moon is not made of cheese.

AND THAT SIGNATURE BELONGS TO TRUMP.

If you have a problem with that, you are choosing to be part of the cover up for a pedophile ring that seems to involve the person you are covering for.

The last three Republican presidents wrecked the economy. The last three Democratic presidents had to fix things. newrepublic.com/article/1933...
Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do.
As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

I want to encourage everyone to take part in the April 5th protests around the country. I’ve got links below 1) to find an event and 2) training on safety & de-escalation.

Sharing this info is one way to participate. 👍🏼

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Republicans tried to illegally freeze Medicaid and Nicole Malliotakis thought it was a great idea. We sent a protest truck to her offices in Staten Island and Brooklyn.

Congrats to all the dummies of every political stripe. Y’all really got your man.
It took Trump 3 hours to delete the Spanish version of the White House website and the White House’s Spanish Twitter account.

Trump won 42% of the Hispanic vote.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

i said a few times here and there before the election that we’ll see what the mass deportation plan looks like when it’s ICE agents dragging grandmothers out of churches and, well, here we are
Minutes ago, the Trump admin revoked the sensitive locations policy that prevented ICE from carrying out enforcement arrests inside churches, hospitals, and schools.

At every corner, we must oppose these baseless attacks on the trans community. The fascist playbook looks to blame the issues created by billionaires and spineless politicians on certain groups of people. Trump has selected trans folks and immigrants. We can’t give an inch on the bigotry. Onwards ✊🏾

I think this should be kind of a big deal: Elon Musk tweeting at 1:03am, “Only the AfD can save Germany.”

The AfD is Germany’s neo-Nazi party.
