Yesterday, I fondly remembered my dear friend Leonard Nimoy, who would have turned 94. His legacy lives on in our hearts. Just days ago, Bill Shatner celebrated his 94th birthday — wishing him continued health and happiness. Live long and prosper, my friends.

Yesterday, private prison company CoreCivic announced that they will reopen a family detention center in Texas. It was previously reported a toddler detained there died due to a lack of medical care.

It will detain up to 2,400 people—including children.

“There's a private interest behind the detention and the incarceration of our community,” said an activist protesting the facilities.

“What President Trump is doing is not only giving a blank check to the Big Oil companies, he’s also sabotaging clean energy.”

And why would Trump sabotage cheaper renewable energy?

@vanhollen.senate.gov was clear: “Well, that’s what he told the Big Oil executives he would do.” 👇

These two developments show the extraordinary steps Republicans are taking to rig the political system in their bid to preserve state power. With all the focus on a constitutional crisis in Donald Trump’s Washington, it’s easy to overlook how a similar dynamic is playing out at the state level.
Republicans and Elon Musk are also causing a constitutional crisis in the states
The GOP is going to unprecedented lengths to seize power over state courts in North Carolina and Wisconsin.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Please explain what just happened. Is there no way to stop this w the reconciliation to be used by GOP to get around the filibuster? Are we sunk?

At CPAC, a new group pushed for Donald Trump to serve an unconstitutional third term.

The effort, called the Third Term Project, is being led by Shane Trejo. He once co-hosted a neo-Nazi adjacent podcast called “Blood Soil and Liberty.”

“Their goal is to take money away from clean energy, take money from disadvantaged communities, and give it to the fossil fuel companies and special interests.”

On Tuesday, President Trump signed an executive order on in vitro fertilization. Despite the executive order’s claims that it’s “expanding access” to the procedure, it does not actually do that.

“Don’t be fooled by Trump and Republicans pretending to care about protecting IVF."

Advocates say if he was serious about IVF there's more he could do to actually help.

Democratic leaders:

I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
