Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Elected officials who inform their constituents about federal and constitutional law are doing their jobs. That includes when they remind service members that they could be prosecuted for following unlawful orders because it's a violation of the Constitution. That is the law.

Goodnight everyone, and if you accidentally got an extremely recognizable Nazi symbol tattoo years ago and keep forgetting to get it covered up, maybe do that tomorrow and don’t spend any more extra years with an extremely recognizable Nazi symbol tattooed on your body

Some of you may remember Miss Jennifer, the sweet bloodhound who was dumped at a shelter in Alabama with her paws encased in concrete
She has a wonderful new family in Orlando now, and went to the vet to have her teeth cleaned and ... they had to tie her ears back 😭

A reason im not moved by the “don’t give the trump administration the pretext they’re looking for” is that we would not dare say that about any anti-authoritarian protest movement in literally any other country

RFK Jr. knows amazingly little about autism
For someone who's been talking about it for so long, the HHS secretary got many basic facts wrong.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.

They're already shutting this stuff down. And giving the GOP this means they get the okay to continue shutting stuff down with NO WAY for Congress to push back. THIS is the pushback. Now. Here.
Gillibrand was shouting in the Dem senate meeting, condemning "no" faction. Phrase "this will not be a normal shutdown" reported widely, but according to TPM she also said:
“The VA will not be functioning ... the various NIH trials … will be shut down ... he will declare a state of emergency."
