Rev. Barber: 57 years ago, on April 3, reverend Dr. King said the night before he died, nothing would be more tragic than for us to turn back now....We cannot be at ease in America! History is pushing us, the present is demanding us, and the future is calling us. #HandsOff

What Cory Booker did wasn’t just about breaking a record or standing up for democracy—it hits different for Black folks.

Strom Thurmond spoke for 24 hours to block the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

Cory Booker, a Black man, shattered a segregationist’s legacy—and flipped the script.

Sens. Chuck Grassley and Maria Cantwell just introduced a bill to reassert Congress's power over tariffs.

The Trade Review Act of 2025 says a president must notify Congress about new tariffs within 48 hours of imposition. It requires Congress to approve them within 60 days or they expire.

Mark your calendars: the default statute of limitations for felony prosecutions in Wisconsin is six years
Elon Musk has committed a blatant felony by offering money for votes in order to help Brad Schimel. This is a chainsaw attack on democracy and the rule of law. Musk should be brought to justice immediately. 🧵

Today would be a GREAT day for Minority Leader Schumer to hand the reins to Senator Cory Booker!

Please.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

The moment Cory Booker broke Strom Thurmond's speaking record:

"I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

Pete Hegseth never should have been tapped for this job. It's too important.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

They are targeting Colorado Springs as a White Supremacy hub. Steve Bannon plans a White Supremacy Gala here. Write emails to Info@venu.live & ask them to cancel. A protest is planned but cancelling sends a loud clear message. PLEASE!

Happening NOW: Detroiters and Michiganders are rising up—rallying against the Trump regime, standing shoulder to shoulder with our Canadian neighbors in resistance.

This isn’t just a protest. It’s a rejection of authoritarianism, billionaire tyranny, and the MAGA war on workers, democracy, & truth.

And, they shouldn't make the same mistake as they did with Trump's first impeachment by limiting it to a single allegation. There should be a laundry list, preferably in the form of an actual scroll.
I think Dem House members should introduce articles of impeachment for all the good reasons. They will fail, but they need to try to move the Overton window and get the public's attention, especially given Schumer's unwillingness to meet or even demonstrate awareness of the moment.

CALIFORNIA WATER UPDATE: The Army Corps knew the water wouldn’t reach LA—but they followed Trump’s orders and dumped it anyway.

He wasted billions of gallons for a photo op. Hope farmers don’t ask where their precious water went when they need it this summer—the clown they voted for sabotaged them.
