Schumer: Step Down as Minority Leader! It's time for Schumer to step down from his post as minority leader and allow for new leadership to emerge—someone who is willing to consistently fight for the American people.

The moment he named his platform “Truth Social” we were headed this way.

It also covers two-thirds of all nursing home stays.

ICE isn’t rounding up migrants at Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ meatpacking plants. They're provoking riots in Los Angeles.

I wonder, is this provocation laying the groundwork for a pretext to declare martial law?

And then I remember all those many tanks shipped to DC, the home of so many protests.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Federal immigration agents in riot gear squared off with hundreds of protesters for a second consecutive day on Saturday in Los Angeles County, filling streets with tear gas and smoke. nyti.ms/4kUON0y

On Good Friday, Jesus was disappeared to silence his message (RNS) — The solidarity that Jesus offered the vulnerable on the cross long ago calls Christians to stand up to oppression today.

OPINION: Good Friday represents a call to take seriously the meaning of the cross in a time when people’s lives and livelihoods are at stake. The love of God must be known through the pursuit of justice.

U.S. cyber defenders shaken by Trump's attack on their former boss “Every day feels somehow more bizarre than the last. It is incredibly difficult to focus on our mission,” one current Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency employee said.

The people tasked with keeping the country safe from foreign government hackers and cybercriminal gangs say they feel like they’re under attack from the administration they work under.

SAVE Act: House Passes GOP Voting Bill That Could Disenfranchise Millions Read more here.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a major voter suppression measure that, if it became law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine U.S. democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Bates: He inherited an economy that was the best-performing in the world. But in just two months, he’s crashing that economy with the biggest tax increase on middle-class families in 50 years—raising the prices he promised he would lower, and breaking his number one promise to them.

They will minimize the numbers.
They will lie and say everyone was paid.
They will gaslight you into thinking protests don't matter.

They do these things because they know protests DO MATTER.

And we have to keep protesting until we drown them.

April 19th. Spread the word.

There’s no denying it anymore: the pro-democracy movement is finally back on offense.

Trump’s presidency is an unmitigated disaster.

MAGA is imploding under the weight of its own lies, grifts, and failures.

They’re not strong—they’re desperate. They’re flailing. And they know it.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Where is our humanity?

All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

might as well cut the 2026 ads now about how every Republican member of Congress gave their total and unreserved backing to the Trump tariffs.

Pathetic. If you’re still watching Fox you have to realize these people feed you mental pablum to keep you in line. Join the real world.

Tough language from JPMorgan tonight:

“.. we view the full implementation of these policies as a substantial macro economic shock not currently incorporated in our forecasts. .. these policies, if sustained, would likely push the US and global economy into recession this year.”

Reporter: April 9th, these tariffs come in place. Do you plan on having negotiations before that date?

Bessnet: I-I-again, I'm not part of the negotiations. So you know, w–we'll see.

Reporter: Canada and Mexico, notably missing on that chart. Why is that?

Bessent: Um. I'm not sure.

So just to recap:

1. The reciprocal tariffs aren't reciprocal. The rates announced by Trump are unrelated to the tariffs charged by other countries.

Imports from Brazil, which imposes relatively high tariffs, will face lower rates than countries that impose little or no tariffs on US goods.

Yep

“Fertilization President” Trump Just Gutted Fertility Research An entire research team at the CDC has been dismissed, thanks to Donald Trump’s cuts.

Despite dubbing himself the “Father of IVF,” Donald Trump actually WILL NOT be funding federal infertility research.

Trump has fired an entire infertility research team at the CDC.

Again.
