We stood in the rain for Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, for Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, and their full recovery, for Sen. Padilla and his courage, and for the countless parents and kids being torn apart because of this Administration's cruelty. #NoKings #TeslaTakedown #dogs

Remembering an Act of Conscience and Courage Seventy-five years later, Margaret Chase Smith’s example is more important than ever.

30 years ago today, Margaret Chase Smith died.

A Republican senator from Maine, she broke with her party at a key moment:

How Bruce Springsteen Gave Us a Roadmap for Surviving Trump The Boss has always understood the undercurrents of America. His words now provide a way through this mess.

"It's important and courageous for Springsteen to rebuke Trump, particularly when so many people in positions of power are busy kowtowing to him." — Jennifer Palmieri

FDA will limit Covid vaccines to people over 65 or at high risk of serious illness, leaders say The FDA announced it will limit access to Covid-19 vaccines going forward to people 65 and older and others at high risk of serious illness

If this new restriction on COVID vaccines becomes policy, it shows that RFK Jr. lied about wanting to do something about Long COVID. These vaccines are safe and they reduce people's risk for Long COVD. I have Long Covid. You don't want it.

Our Stories Will Lead Us Out of This Trumpian Disaster by Wendy Button

After yesterday's nonsense from RFK Jr., here's a piece about my mother's dementias and the consequences of this Administration's failures. There are countless stories and the pain will find you. Thanks @youngwritersforda.bsky.social #RFKJr #dementia #braindonation substack.com/home/post/p-...

Thanks so much Kari.

Team Bruce Springsteen. What's so powerful is how he says it. Not once does he say the name Trump. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZHW...

ALSOBROOKS: Can you name which office the Safe to Sleep campaign operates out of?

RFK Jr: Which campaign?

ALSOBROOKS: The one the senator asked you about just two minutes ago

RFK Jr: It's ACF

ALSOBROOKS: No, actually it's Health and Human Services

I have Long Covid, too, and I am sorry for his son. This makes RFK Jr.'s statements and actions horrific. Slow-walking the vaccine update so it doesn't hit until Spring of '26, proudly pushing massive cuts to the NIH, CDC, and remaining silent about the LongCovid Moonshot legislation. POS #LongCovid

An Open Letter to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Who Thinks My Daughter is a Tragedy Dear Mr. RFK Jr., (The “dear” is tradition. Don’t mistake it for affection.) You said autistic children are a burden. That they ruin families. That...

The question isn’t whether people like my daughter have something to offer. It’s whether society is finally ready to stop measuring value with the wrong scale.

Autism doesn’t destroy families.

Ignorance does.

Isolation does.

Shame does.

A beautiful piece.

Rain didn't stop us. #TeslaTakedown #TeslaTakedown Dedham #pambondi #dogs #musk

My Once Smooth And Beautiful Voice Was Turned Into Something Resembling The Lollipop Guild Munchkins Thanks To Long Covid 850+ days after getting COVID, I'm still trying to recapture all I've lost. Meanwhile, the White House just cut $11B in funding for the Long COVID research that could actually help people like me.

I have Long COVID. Doing okay, but felt like writing this piece about it. RFK Jr. is doing so much damage. Thanks to his vaccine conspiracies, we might not get updated COIVD shots until spring. This is insane with a new variant rising.

Donald Trump’s Information Warfare Against America Federal data used to be economic jet fuel. Now much of it is either gone or weaponized.

Federal data is an invaluable national asset and economy driver. But for Trump & Co., it's "woke" and must disappear, or it's personal, private, and perfect for weaponization against people and groups they don't like. My latest at @thebulwark.com

Promotional poster for a 24-hour Medicaid vigil at the National Mall, starting May 7 at 1 PM and ending with a rally on May 8 at 12 PM, featuring an illustration of a hand holding a candle.

THIS WEEK: We're bringing together caregivers, care recipients, and care advocates for a 24-hour Medicaid vigil at the U.S. Capitol.

We're telling Congress: Medicaid is not just a line item in a budget – it's a lifeline for millions of people.

Join us in DC: go.caringacross.org/a/dc-medicai...

Grace getting lots of honks today. The Trump and Elon fans seemed even angrier, screaming from their cars. #TeslaTakedown #50501 #nokings #protests #dogs

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov. I am so glad Kilmar is alive. Bring him home and restore due process.

RFK Jr... This is my brother. He loves to walk, watch football, help out at his day program, and spend time with his nieces. He knows that vaccines saves lives and he LOVES to vote. #RFKJr
