On April 21, people will vote in a special election on whether to approve this change and allow the new maps to be used. Don’t forget to vote in favor!

on merit, not favoritism or retaliation. Without independent review, employees who speak up about problems, report waste or misconduct, or simply fall out of favor could have far fewer options to defend themselves. That weakens accountability and makes the entire federal workforce more vulnerable.

The Home Depot continues to allow ICE to terrorize the communities they pretend to serve. Let’s show them the same kindness we did to target!

We Found the ‘Enemy from Within’ He’s in the White House

“ICE’s raid on a Chicago apartment building and the ensuing ICE violence against civilians make clear that Trump has initiated an unconstitutional, brutal war against ordinary Americans.” Jen Rubin unpacks the unchecked savagery of Trump’s attacks.

I still want the Epstein files released.

Every posture leans to hatred.
Every word is to accuse and divide.
Every act is another opportunity to frighten.
Their flag is pretend superiority but waves to the fire wind of racism and bigotry.
Dread overlays the resistance but we must resist without end.
Maintain the goal of freedom to share.

"We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." —Justice Sonia Sotomayor

I zee no discernable difference between the 1930's Nazi party and today's GOP.

FACT: Hitler and the Nazi Party repeatedly exaggerated or outright fabricated crime and unrest in order to justify taking over policing powers, centralizing control, and dismantling democratic safeguards.

Haha 😂

Ten Republican senators signed a rare public letter calling on the White House to end the delay and release the money. Your voices helped make this happen. Thank you for speaking out and contacting your representatives!

NOAA was developing a tool to help communities prepare for future rainfall. Trump officials stopped it. The tool would have projected how climate change could affect rainfall frequency and intensity in communities across the nation.

Things are not good at the Washington Post, and they are going to get worse, much to my dismay and everyone's loss.

But the reporters there still continue to do good work, such as these exclusives today (gift links)

Image of the Supreme Court building. Title reads: Supreme Court allows Trump to Dismantle the Dept. of Education. Body text reads: In an 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court has has lifted an injunction that reinstated 1,400 Department of Education employees after they were fired. SCOTUS also blocked him from transferring its key functions to other departments. All liberal judges dissented. This is an emergency ruling, as there is still an ongoing legal battle in the lower courts regarding this case. In the meantime, Trump can do an untold amount of damage, allowing for further firings, restructuring, and rescinding of federal funds from schools. Student loans and repayment plans are already in jeopardy due to the Big Bullshit Bill. This ruling will only speed up that process and plunge many struggling Americans further into debt. The source for the image and information is The Guardian.

Attacking education is one of the first steps in the fascist playbook. They want an uneducated populace that is easier to control. They want Americans to be saddled with debt, to keep them working instead of resisting.

We can't let them win.

Limit information to the public. Limit information to Congress. Feels very authoritarian… or should we say, regime-like.

Trump could upend the very structure of American government If he gets away with using the National Guard in Los Angeles, the very basis of our constitutional order would be damaged.

The Tenth Amendment was designed to prevent exactly this. As Austin Sarat explains, Trump’s illegal use of the National Guard in California tramples state sovereignty and edges us closer to authoritarian rule.

Queen Latifa as “The Equalizer!”

Over 4.8 million and counting and many events haven’t even kicked off yet. We’re aiming for over 10 million today to hit the 3.5% rule. The crowds are massive and still growing. We are so proud of all of you. Huge shoutout to Texas you showed up!

What they aren’t showing on Fox News

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
