When my son came downstairs this morning, I thought he said "Batista", so I was like, "Oh, did Batista make an appearance at WrestleMania?"
He replied, "Mum, I said, it's Easter."
In my defense, it is WrestleMania this weekend, and that is about as close as it gets to a religious experience here!

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States
Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

there are like three overlapping scandals with signalgate — illegal distribution of sensitive government materials by top members of the administration, illegal attempt to circumvent records laws and possible unlawful use of military force — and democrats should be screaming about them all

@govevers.wisconsin.gov - With the highest respect, sir, please read below. The State of Wisconsin needs you now, more than ever. Please act, for the sake of free, and I mean, FREE, and fair elections.
The DOJ isn't going to enforce Federal Law.
The Governor of Wisconsin MUST issue an Executive Order making it illegal in the state to pay anyone to sign any petition! The State AG can enforce that without needing DOJ!

you can say they're not sane or their arguments don't pass constitutional muster till you're blue in the face. they have the power. they're doing it. And unless they are stopped they will keep doing it.
In the 2000s, the Supreme Court ruled time and again that even suspected terrorists captured in war zones overseas were entitled to due process.
In no sane world does Rubio's position pass constitutional muster.

Rubio’s position seems to be:

- Once we decide you are a terrorist, we can immediately deport you. No judges.
- After we deport you, we can make you rot in a foreign prison. No criminal charges needed.

Sanders: Our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries.
If you’re working class in America, you live 7-8 years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that?
The answer is not just healthcare. But it is the day-to-day stress that working people live under.
