On Tuesday night, the American people sent a message:

No more Republican attacks on health care. Hold the line. Keep fighting. Protect our care.

Democrats are in DC, ready to negotiate. Republicans need to come to the table.

Not enough people are talking about this:

Even before Trump cut off SNAP funding, he and Republicans in Congress made the biggest cuts to food assistance in U.S. history.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court granted the Trump administration's request to enforce its discriminatory passport policy while our lawsuit makes its way through the courts.

This decision undermines the freedom of transgender, non-binary, and intersex people to have our IDs reflect who we are.

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

Stop the Trump Shutdown

Republicans shut down the government to gut healthcare and bankroll Trump’s illegal power grab. We must hold the GOP accountable for causing chaos just to appease a wannabe king. app.sosha.ai/s/Ol7OrE4v

Criminalizing pregnancy: A record number of women were prosecuted the year after Dobbs They were targeted for substance use, miscarriages, and stillbirths, largely driven by fetal personhood laws.

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

What's happened since?

A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.

Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a rancid bigot.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism

“'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.'

D.L. Mayfield 1d Healing is My Special Interest Subscribe Here's my pep talk after studying authoritarianism: 1). They never truly expect a long-term resistance movement be they think people are a collection of trauma triggers who are easily controlled thru terror 2). If they can't terrorize you 24/7 in your mind, they have already lost the war 3). The single best way you can resist fascism is to not let them terrorize you constantly. Protect your mental health to ensure you are not constantly in a terrorized state 4). Keep connecting to who you are at your core. Your values, preferences, ethics, and beliefs. Build up capacity to resist 5). Remember they are like abusive parents: they only see us extensions of them. They have no clue how powerful joy and community and self-expression can be. We can use this to our advantage — we can be the strong-willed child they never saw coming. Spending time connecting to your true self is not selfish in these times — it's intricately connected to

"They never expect a resistance movement... b/c they think people are easily controlled through terror."

Correct. Take care of yourself. And find your power and use it.
For NIH that is our science. The public supports us.

If we stand up to them, fascism collapses.

President Trump's attempt to fire two independent FTC commissioners is an attack on the agency's essential work fighting consumer fraud, online scams and business monopoly.

More than 200 Congressional Democrats are saying 'hell no.' The President has no right to destroy the FTC.

This would result in the end of much medical research in the US.

Note though that this is the Trump / Stephen Miller budget proposal. Congress doesn’t have to listen. The fight now turns to Congress.

This man is a eugenicist. His unhinged attacks and cockamamie theories on autistic people are incredibly dangerous.

Senator Chris Van Hollen, Democrat of Maryland, tried and failed on Wednesday to secure a meeting in El Salvador with Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, an immigrant and Maryland resident who was mistakenly deported by the Trump administration and remains imprisoned. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/u...

DOGE assigns staffers to work at agency where it allegedly removed sensitive data The National Labor Relations Board told employees Wednesday that DOGE staffers would be assigned to the agency, one day after a whistleblower alleged DOGE may have removed sensitive NLRB data.

JUST IN: The National Labor Relations Board told employees Wednesday that DOGE staffers would be assigned to the agency, one day after a whistleblower alleged DOGE may have removed sensitive NLRB data.

Judge: 'Probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations The government sent several planeloads of alleged gang members to El Salvador, including 137 people under the act, the White House said at the time. The judge gave the U.S. until April 23 to respond.

No one should be deported to a prison in another country without due process.

1. This is a legitimately courageous stance in a moment when many elites are choosing the path of appeasement

2. Strategic alumni organizing will be crucial to make it stick. What I'm saying is: if you went to Harvard and you want everyone to know but in a humble way, THIS IS YOUR MOMENT
