It’s the anniversary of the devastating floods that hit Vermont in 2023 & 2024.

Homes destroyed. Roads washed away. Crops lost. We are still recovering.
Β 
Unless we combat climate change, this extreme weather will become more frequent, severe & damaging.

No more excuses.

They will NEVER silence us on the House Floor.

Or anyplace else.

And just to draw out the logic here: Trump's goal is to stoke an environment of such enormous fear that immigrants leave the U.S, to avoid the risk of being trapped in a hellish prison camp for life, and the threat that similar tactics will be deployed on U.S. citizens keeps the rest of us in line

"WE ARE ALL AFRAID" Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski finally says the quiet part out loud ...

πŸ“ŒBy showing uncommon honesty for a politician in her repulsive party, Murkowski has now punctured the veneer of being quietly on the inside and knowing something is desperately wrong, and publicly standing up and actually DOING something about it on the outside.

πŸ“ŒThe time is NOW, Senator. RIGHT NOW

YouTube video by Senator Chris Van Hollen Just landed in El Salvador to discuss release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia.

I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

Are Any of Us Safe Now? The Trump administration claims the power to punish β€œoffenders” with no due process.

"We are outsourcing torture and murder. What kind of president, what kind of political party, can look at that with satisfaction?" And what American can not at least wonder about their own security?

It’s 11:47, and despite a deadline nearly 20 minutes ago and one already extended at its behest, the Trump administration has filed nothing to resolve Judge Xinis’s questions about their efforts to have Kilmar Abrego Garcia returned to the U.S.

Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Hands Off! Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They're taking everything they can get their hands on and daring the world to stop them. On Saturday, April 5th, we're taking to the stre...

It’s important that people from all walks of life and background, and all rational political perspectives, show unity in support of democracy and the rule of law on April 5, somewhere near you. Show your love for your country and for what it shouldβ€”mustβ€”stand for:

There were four Republican-backed extreme constitutional amendments on the ballot in Louisiana yesterday.

The voters REJECTED them all (in a state Trump won by 22 points in November).

Keep the pressure on.

Why aren’t you wearing a suit?

If your plan is to keep your head down and hope it goes away, I can show you all of human history why it won’t work.

If it’s to capitulate and hope they ignore you, I can show you thousands of Trumpers who’ve already lost their jobs & savings.

Fighting back isn’t an option.

It’s the only option.

UPDATE - Donald Trump's most important security advisers used Signal to discuss an imminent military strike. NOW, reporting by DER SPIEGEL has found that the contact data of some of those officials, including private phone numbers and passwords, is freely accessible on the internet.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social Per the concerns you raise in "The Sirens' Call," I thought you might want to see this letter (responding to an article about Spotify) from the March issue of Harper's.
