It's Easter Sunday and almost 11 o'clock in the morning, so I'm sure we'll be seeing pictures of the president emerging from a church service any time now.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Inconceivable indeed …🔻

Bottom line. Disenfranchising millions for a problem that doesn’t exist. www.forbes.com/sites/hollyc...

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

$1.5T military budget $170B for ICE and Border Patrol (over 4 years) $100B on tax cuts for the 1% (per year) $1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet $496M to send National Guard into cities $200M for Kennedy Center renovations $200M for Kristi Noem's jets $100M for Trump's golf outings Priorities.

MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. Yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone here as we try to fulfill our oath to care for the people of Minnesota

These colonists need to quit demonstrating, quit yelling at law enforcement, challenging law enforcement, and begin to get civil.

“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”? @KristiNoem needs to resign. @JDVance owes her son an apology. Shame on everyone.

Ok, I couldn't stop thinking about this. Apologies to the literally dozens of people I've lifted from... I want to do a fully credited version, but I'm sitting here sobbing and, well, maybe you'll feel some release, too.

When I was in school, the Monroe Doctrine was thought to be antiquated, misguided, and bad for our country. Under NATO alliances, our country’s economy became the envy of the world. So why are we deciding to throw out all that? To keep Trump happy? It’s idiotic.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

Cancer research costs too much but we have the money to run Venezuela

it's time to play America's favorite new game, 'what the fuck am I waking up to now'

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Dumb, illegal, and does nothing to lower costs.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders. What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Finally getting some theological clarity on the ethics of reclining in one’s plane seat

And we wonder why Democratic veterans felt the need to remind soldiers they didn’t have to follow unlawful orders?

"Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved. Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath, but never a source of God's mercy, generosity, or compassion."

Jane Goodall offers sage advice for the rest of us. #3E

Democrats should never vote to fund a government that's waging war on its own citizens and firing officials *because* they insist on following court orders instead of breaking the law. Let Senate Republicans nuke the filibuster. None of this is normal and it shouldn't be treated as such.

This is where all the disinformation, neverending hate mongering, and horseshit media inevitably leads. @lookoutnews.bsky.social is reporting that he falsely blamed the last five school shootings on transgender people.

Today’s public service announcement.

Saving this for a special occasion. Dbacks didn’t win world series a few years back and she lost the election back in early November. Maybe I can open it soon?

No notes

Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"

So much painful truth here.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

Warren Petersen is using his position as Sen. President to threaten and intimidate Sen. Analise Ortiz for exercising her 1st Amendment rights. That’s not leadership—it’s bullying. I know he’s only been a lawyer for a year and a half but he needs a CLE on the Bill of Rights.

1977: why would the bartender in star wars even care if some robots with artificial intelligence came into his bar 2025: ohhh ok

Confused. So (apart from the other crazy assumptions underlying this) will farm workers get health coverage? Bc the idea of kicking people off Medicaid is that they can get jobs that provide health insurance, right? I’m just trying to keep up with the plot

They can take our rights, and our healthcare, and our confidential Social Security info, but they can't take the joy we experience whenever a Starship explodes.

Genuine Question because I Do not understand… so if these men roll up in plain clothes and masks, grab a human being… even a child, and throw them in an unmarked vehicle I am just supposed to look the other way and say nothing ?? Ask Nothing ?

Fortunate Son. OMG

That’s not what the military is supposed to do. That’s called a military coup.
