Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.

If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.

At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.

Today, on the first-ever #USAIDDay, we honor decades of American compassion, courage, and global leadership.

Trump may try to gut foreign aid—but he can’t kill compassion.

The spirit of USAID lives on in public servants who believe America can still be a force for good.

I have this on a t-shirt. I like to wear it out & just watch folks read it, never saying a word. Eventually they all just nod as they understand it.

Sometimes it’s best not to respond and just leave things alone.

Republicans scream about voter ID. Fine. So why aren’t Democrats launching a full-blown...nationwide effort to help every eligible voter GET one? If the GOP wants to make IDs the battleground...then Goddamnit...equip people for the fight. This should be a no-brainer.

I do have a "real ID" tho. NYS accepted my very old white-writing-on-black-background (mimeo?) copy of my birth certificate. Would it be accepted for a passport or federal voter ID? Idk, I guess I have to find out. I have voted in every election for the last 55 yrs.

I'm sorry, I don't understand when u say u won't acquiesce. Does that mean u won't get an ID, but then u won't be able to vote? Don't we need them to fly commercially these days anyway? I agree the point is to disenfranchise folks. I'd be 1 of them as my original birth certificate is long gone-70yrs

Like rethuglicans don't want a solution to immigration issues, they'd rather terrify folks & waste billions of dollars. The cruelty is nauseating & the point. Message to MSM: STOP CALLING HIM PRESIDENT!!! If I can do it, so can u. Just don't give him that title/respect anymore. Just stop.

@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social Democrats MUST fight smart: launch a nationwide push to get every voter an ID. Don’t just protest the rules — beat them at their own game and protect democracy.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Amazon announced plans to lay off 14,000 employees as it looks to invest more in AI.

Wall Street cheered the news, sending Amazon stock prices higher.

This will boost Amazon's CEO pay and bolster Jeff Bezos's net worth, which is now $250 billion.

The system is rigged.

At the behest of corporate lobbyists, Trump's CFPB will block states from erasing medical debt from credit reports.

This comes as the GOP allows ACA subsidies to expire – which could cause millions to go uninsured and medical debt to skyrocket.

A perfect storm of cruelty.
