If you believe the lies being spewed by Trump, Musk, and their sycophants about Federal Employees and support the horrible way civil servants are being treated, then unfollow me now, because I neither need nor want you in my feed. #FederalEmployees #CivilServants #TrumpLies #MuskMustGo #MuskLies

Today would be a good day to fund the ACA and end the GOP shutdown.

Now you know why Trump and the GOP are so focused on undermining free and free elections in 2026. Please, stay informed and take action. There is no better way to start than by signing up for Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
The law says they do.
Q: Does the administration guarantee that all furloughed federal workers will get back pay?

LEAVITT: This is something we are very much open to discussing with Democrats as part of the discussions about the continuing resolution

(That's not a yes!)

The woman in this video had just had kidney surgery.
NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

You decide…
She could run all the way to the far left and I'd never vote for her.

I predicted Trump would do this this last Monday on Maddow.

ATTN: if you’re on the sandwich guy jury, my Signal is in my bio. I’d love to talk after the trial. I’ll keep you anonymous. Please share widely.

We’re going to have to get used to this. 2026 and 2028 are likely to look very similar.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, attempts to prevent US citizens from voting should be a red line for you.

We can’t allow terroristic threats to keep us from the polls.
Breaking from NJ AG Platkin:

"Early this morning, law enforcement responded to threats that were received by email involving certain polling places in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic Counties. Law enforcement … have worked swiftly to secure these polling locations."

Without anyone saying a word, everyone involved in this episode knew the risks and the safest path forward. They know, instinctively, how to survive in a declining media organization for one more day — please Trump, Weiss, and Ellison, and everyone’s happy. Piss them off and watch out.

If we survive as a democracy that long.
Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.

If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

First this admin decided to withhold SNAP all together. Now, they're trying to get away with partial payments. Stop playing political games with people's food. Leave hungry families out of it.

Continuing the long tradition of not seeing any of the dumb shit Trump says

(He saw it. 100%)
RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

When the church seeks to change the world through political power, it does not change the world, it becomes the world.

As Stanley Hauerwas famously says, “The first task of the church is to make the world the world.”
Thank you! Hold the line.

Trump appears to be defying the court order. Millions of families across the country are still seeing the message: “NO BALANCE FOUND.” Time will tell if the administration ultimately complies.

Between this and the terrorism against Latinos who are mainly Catholic, the US has become the leading persecutor of Christians.
Trump deported Iranian Christians with open asylum claims for religious persecution four weeks ago.

He expelled other Iranian Christians, including children, to Panama in February.
