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.
BREAKING: Alicia Keys last night at the Grammys:
“DEI is not a threat, it's a gift."
The New York attorney general, Letitia James, has warned New York hospitals that complying with the White House’s executive order to end gender-affirming medical care for transgender youth could well violate state law.
@nytimes.com You had an opportunity and a responsibility to report accurately and fairly about a Trump administration and Project 2025 but you cared more about profits than journalism so here we are.
The Trump administration has warned more than 1,100 EPA employees who work on climate change, reducing air pollution, enforcing environmental laws and other programs that they could be fired at any time.
President Jimmy Carter has officially won a posthumous Grammy for his narration of an audiobook of his Sunday school lessons. He is now a 4-time Grammy winner. RIP Jimmy. 💙
After claiming he doesn't know who Laura Loomer is and merely took a photo with her at a book event, Kash Patel is asked if he's familiar with Stew Peters, an antisemitic podcast host.
Patel: "Not off the top of my head."
Durbin: "You made eight separate appearances on his podcast..."
Two passengers on the American Airlines jet that crashed into the Potomac River on Wednesday night were Yevgeniya Shishkova and Vadim Naumov, who were world-class ice skaters that worked as coaches in the U.S. and were married to each other. nyti.ms/3CsTFJQ
With over 2 million federal workers experiencing job insecurity because they’ve been put on notice by the new administration and millions more being threatened with deportation, I expect this spending to drop soon. We’re in crisis mode from here on out.
i'm tired of being told to stop doomscrolling. i'm just scrolling, it's not my fault there's doom on there
Senator Dick Durban to Kash Patel:
"With all due respect, Mr. Patel, I've not worn the uniform of this country and neither have you. To think that you would denigrate Bob Mueller's service to our country and call him a 'swamp creature' is an indication of the depths your political views take you."
Using the tragic plane collision over the Potomac that cost 67 human souls as an occasion to slam DEI hiring was obscene. There’s zero evidence at this point that an underqualified air traffic controller or pilot had any role in this crash.
Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.
it is amazing that the "meritocracy" crowd will back up RFK Jr in spite of the fact he's not even qualified to get any job at the Department of Health and Human services. Not one. He is not qualified to do a single fucking thing.
they’re going to deport people for having opinions. they’re calling the united states the most authoritian regime on the planet
If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.
Asking for a friend…
How many Americans must die before Amendment 25 can be enacted?
We can deal with Vance and/or Johnson if needed.
But this radical domestic terrorist -- Donald Trump -- must be removed from power ASAP.
That drunk rapist Pete Hegseth says he wants to put migrants being deported in Gitmo before sending them "back" to their country of origin. But we know that's expensive and Trump/Elon want to save money. Any guesses what happens to them next? #TrumpsFinalSolution
Laughable to have Pete Hegseth claim that DOD will be led by “best and brightest” when he is a drunk sex pest who ran two small vets groups into the ground
HE is the meritless hire
Gwen and I are sending love to those mourning the loss of their loved ones in the tragic accident at DCA last night. I’m grateful to the first responders who rushed to the scene under dangerous conditions. Hold your loved ones a little closer today.
Like when he thought people *seeking asylum* were from “asylums and prisons.”
christ in a cockpit he’s like a child who’s learned a new word and can’t stop repeating it
I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget INSURRECTIONIST TRUMP!
Trump blaming DEI and mentally disabled people for the crash. A truly vile speech. Straight up Nazi shit.
What are the chances that an Army run by this boozy bozo would crash a Blackhawk helicopter into a plane at a DC airport tonight? I mean, really.
Trump is out here trying to blame Black people and women for a plane crash that happened *after* he announced a DEI purge of the FAA
The same people wailing about DEI literally can’t spell their own job title.
