Not changing my name when I got married 20+ years ago keeps being a good decision.

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate.

I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man.

Never change your last name.

A lot to be said about this opinion from the 4th circuit, but maybe most importantly, it’s written in plain language.

It’s only 7 pages, I’d encourage people to read it in it’s entirety www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/u...

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight.

We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

I really wish people would be more careful about posting protest pics on social media. Think about how chaotic 1/6 was and how many people they were able to identify and find in that mess - and those were more or less ethical actors doing the searching

If the White House is insisting that there was no classified or secret information in the Signal chat, does that mean Jeffrey Goldberg can publish it all?

Mark Warner calls for Tulsi Gabbard and Trump’s national security team to be fired.

Do you agree that is justified here?

📌AOC has more power than anybody in the Democratic Party right now because she’s an old-school Democrat.
That’s called irony.

I am begging blue state governors to have lunch this week with your adjutant general of the National Guard.

Cannot stress enough how important this relationship is going to be in the near future.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall.

I will never bow down.

i honestly have never seen a political leader so thoroughly destroy their credibility so quickly and, on the other side, it is abundantly clear that if anyone can claim a genuine leadership of large parts of the democratic party, it is AOC.
Folks is it good when your own party's leadership in the House is dropping "listen to the women" and MLK quotes on you while swing state members of your caucus are talking about new leadership

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

It is clear that some of us understand the present danger & some don’t!

I stand by the NO vote on the blank check for Trump & Elon… I’ve got no explanation nor agreement with Senate Dems being complicit in Trump’s Tyranny.

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov, we, the American people, demand you stand with Senate Dems voting NO on the CR & Cloture.

NO blank checks for Trump & Musk.

NO gutting funds that help families eat while billionaires cheat the system.

Stand up for us!
Hold the damn line!

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.
