Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

Home of the Brave launched a $1 million national ad campaign in support of the peaceful No Kings rallies on Oct. 18th.

The ads will run in over 185 local papers and The New York Times, USA Today and The Washington Post calling on Americans to “peacefully protest our false king."

The issue of immigration has always been the center of gravity for Trump and MAGA. The conventional advice to Democrats has been to duck the issue. I think that's been wrong--but in any case there's now no choice. Democrats need to directly take on Trump's cruel and lawless attacks on immigrants.

Hundreds of researchers learned the National Science Foundation was cancelling their grants or fellowships late on Friday. Some of those affected by the cuts study online misinformation and disinformation. www.niemanlab.org/2025/04/nati...

“What has the country gotten for all of this chaos? Nothing. Trump tarnished the United States’ long-standing trading relationships and boosted the cost of imports, and evidently won zero concessions in return,” @annielowrey.bsky.social writes:
The Cost of Chaos
The Liberation Day pause is better than the Liberation Day policy itself was. But Americans are getting a raw deal one way or another.

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent.

Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list.

This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts.

It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

People need to know that Donald Trump and Elon Musk are lying to them — including with their lie that federal employees were fired for “poor performance,” when so many had glowing evaluations.

It’s clear who SHOULD be fired for poor performance: Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." This is absolute rubbish. Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American for 85 years. Perhaps the bigger "ponzi scheme" is the $38 billion spent by taxpayers to prop up his corporations?

Any media outlet hanging on to a shred of journalistic timber should televise these hearings.
Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country."

The first will be in Phoenix March 5.
