Tens of thousands of people took to the streets today in NYC.

After marching, we surrounded 26 Federal Plaza—the building where ICE is kidnapping people and tearing families apart.

We sat in solidarity with those taken, and left flowers for those lost.

Arresting judges cannot be the new normal in America. I’m deeply concerned by the lack of information and partisan tone surrounding this news, and I trust my Republican colleagues will agree. It’s incumbent on all of us to uphold and protect the constitution.

I knew the U.S. higher education system was a massive draw for foreigners, but I did not know the U.S. sold more educational services to the rest of the world than it did natural gas and coal combined. Great piece by @crampell.bsky.social

The Trump Regime will stop funding research on the health effects of climate change, because, of course they will.

They will stop funding everything that is worth funding

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!

This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.

It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is triggered by Bert & Ernie and wants to defund Sesame Street.

At her DOGE hearing, she attacked PBS and NPR and accused them of having an extreme gay agenda. Her ideas are insane and a joke.
