Post from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard that reads: Any unauthorized release of classified information is a violation of the law and will be treated as such.

Circling back on this…

This is what democracy looks like.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our town hall tonight and made your voice heard.

Nearly 2,000 Minnesotans made their voices heard loud and clear: Donald Trump is failing the American people -- and we will fight back.

Trump is letting the richest man in the world wreak havoc on our government. It's unconstitutional and it's dangerous. Democrats must fight back. And that starts by voting no on his nominees. I urge my colleagues to join me. We cannot confirm any more of Trump's chaos cabinet.

Big national media outlet still failing.
Headlines suggest some dispute over data access at US AID.

This is such a massive violation of basic privacy rights, and every elected Democrat in Congress should be screaming about the illegality of it and demanding accountability. apnews.com/article/dona...

Trump slaps tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China, risking higher prices for U.S. consumers The new levies on America’s top trade partners could drive prices higher for cars, electronics, lumber and more, threatening to crimp an economy that the president has vowed to improve.

Donald Trump just slapped a major tax on every person and business in America. Families will pay hundreds more at the grocery store and the gas pump. Everything from cars to kitchen appliances will skyrocket in price.

My friend who works at a women's shelter and helps victims of sexual assault and domestic violence just got her grants frozen. In case you were wondering how things are going.

Literal Nazis in this so-called administration.

the use and promotion of generative AI is anti-labour, anti-environment, and anti-human—it is impossible to make a genuine progressive statement with this technology

also it's embarrassing

The FDA has scrubbed from its website guidance on conducting medical trials with representative numbers of men/women and racial/ethnic minorities. these aren't symbolic issues. Drugs affect men/men, people with different genetic backgrounds differently. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/medic...

Same, girl.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

Anyone who has had security clearance knows very worst thing you can do is hide information. Makes you a security risk because you have background that you decided will harm you if it becomes public; makes you a target for our enemies to extract information.

We should never have allowed the word welfare to be tarnished.

Welfare is objectively a good thing.

Caring for other people's welfare is objectively good.

We ought to have mocked and ridiculed folks using welfare in a negative way for their crass lack of empathy for their fellow human beings.

As homelessness grows, so do fences around the Twin Cities Fences keep homeless people off parking lots, sidewalks and empty properties. Critics say they won’t solve homelessness and contribute to stereotyping the Twin Cities as unsafe.

We're erecting fences to protect property instead of erecting housing to protect people – pathetic.

I'm aware that addressing homelessness is more complicated than just housing, but simply moving a problem out of sight is not helpful, it just allows the privileged to comfortably ignore the problem.

We cannot win if voters get their news about Democrats from Republicans.

Our party needs to show up everywhere if we want to beat the GOP’s edge and reshape the information environment.

That means deploying great communicators to deliver effective messages – everywhere.

There should be nothing convenient about acquiring deadly weapons.

‘Safety signal’ in Moderna’s RSV vaccine studies halts trials of other vaccines for childhood killer Company found signs its shots made some infected kids sicker than expected, casting a new shadow over the previously troubled RSV vaccine field

While the results are unfortunate, this is a great example of how our vaccines are indeed vetted before public release. Moderna's transparency and caution are reassuring. #VaccinesWork
