"The enemy is anybody who's going to get you killed, no matter which side he's on." - Capt. John Yossarian in Joseph Heller's satirical novel Catch-22 (1961) #Booksky #literature #quotes 🖋️📚

Usually #caregiving falls to the daughter. "Sitting in that small room, I realised then that life had shifted. My #ageing father wouldn’t be able to help much & my older brother is estranged... I would be doing this solo, a single woman w no partner to turn to, caring for [my mother]." #disability

The ASPIRE-FTD clinical trial has expanded to a fourth cohort, continuing to advance gene therapy research. Read more: ftdregistry.org/press/aspire...

I finally put it on the page. "The Wrong Pool" is a memoir about mothers and daughters, caregiving, grief, & the moment you realize you have become the parent. It’s about the lies we tell to protect the people we love, the damage we inherit, & the ways love survives

Why is he buying votes to win this judge position? Simple: Tesla is in court with the state of Wisconsin.

The two things that we should do is fight against social welfare cuts and also attack Elon Musk for the chaos he’s creating. And I think that’s something that basically every wing of the party should be on board with. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/o...

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

👀 Canadians are calling for authorities in the Land of the Maple Leaf to hit Americans where it hurts most—by banning Canadian-owned Pornhub.

When the judge gave his order, he told Department of Justice lawyers, "This is something that you need to make sure is complied with immediately," WaPo reports. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/... Secretary of State Marco Rubio retweeted this "Oopsie... Too late" post from Bukele this morning.

This is Chuck. Chuck is selling a book. Chuck also has a full-time job. I would consider buying Chuck’s book if he were doing that job, but he’s not. Don’t be like Chuck. And don’t buy Chuck’s book.

And Bidens $750 was just the small beginning to each !! Trump is cutting FEMA help!

This is blatant defiance of the court order. It was NOT too late. When the judge issued is order, two planes were in the air, and a third took off from Texas AFTER the order.

This was not a close vote. 91% of group leaders voted for national to make this all. 7% said probably, but they needed more time. 2% opposed. We are a locally led movement. When local leaders speak, we listen. We encouage Demorats to rally around someone who can lead the opposition forward.

The CR was a debacle from top to bottom. Indivisible talked to our group leaders today about what to do next. "...82% of group leaders in New York and 91% of Indivisible group leaders nationwide voted to call for Schumer to step aside as Senate Minority Leader." indivisible.org/statements/i...

Nancy Pelosi to Chuck Schumer: Get a backbone.

Indeed.

Sen Merkley (D-OR) wins the prize for the most telling and succinct comment:

I remember when they painted Black Lives Matter on the streets of Washington, D.C. I remember when Google Maps updated to recognize it. Today, I walked by as they tore it up. I asked for a piece. The paint is faded. They pulled it from the ground. But.. Black Lives Matter.

Sitting next to Representative Bynum, I got an email inviting me to one of her town halls. I had to let her know. @repbynum

I'm looking forward to catching up LIVE with Stephen Colbert tonight. Feels like there will be plenty to discuss! Tune in to the Late Show at 11:35 pm ET.

Where are Pelosi, Obama, Clinton, Biden? How are they SO SILENT? Why should we ever listen to any of them ever again???????

Expect either another attempted assassination or “checks for everyone” to distract the masses from the absolute world mess they made on the public stage today.

Firing a Black 4-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff only to name a less qualified white man to the same job is why DEI policies existed in the first place.

Judge orders HHS, CDC and FDA to restore deleted webpages with health information www.cbsnews.com/news/judge-o...

Well… today I have my first DOGE subcommittee hearing along with a Judiciary hearing, all while DC is snowed in! If I had normal coworkers & the country wasn’t going to hell lead by DOGE Douchebags, I’d say, “nothing to see here,” but something tells me, today is going to be pure insanity…

The thing that bothers me most is that when all hell breaks out, and it's full-on pitchforks and torches, Trump and Musk will slide into a jet and whisk themselves away while the rest of us fight for something we didn't cause.

It's day 22 and he still doesn't have a plan to lower your prices.

I'll go anywhere on behalf of a good cause - and that means engaging people across all the different platforms. Good to be connected here, @maddow.msnbc.com and @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com.

I am proud of all the people who DIDN'T understand Kendrick's performance taking the time to LEARN more about the cultural impact & significance. We see you. We thank you. We appreciate you.
