•••MEASLES ALERT••• A traveler with measles was at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey for several hours while infectious this week. Anyone who was in Newark Airport's Terminal B on Monday between 12:30 and 4:00 p.m. may have been exposed to measles — considered by health…

If you’re in Morgantown, WV or you know anybody who is, 50 ICE agents landed at the airport there this morning.

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

Scanlon: The Gulf of Mexico was so named over 500 years ago. If we want to update that name to reflect our current culture, maybe we should call it the Sea of Emoluments—you know, the place where we can board the Ship of Fools and navigate from a State of Ignorance to the Confederacy of Dunces…

Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?

trump signed an EO yesterday to cut funding for PBS and NPR. Authoritarians have a difficult relationship with the truthful reporting.

Please pay attention

Heads up, this video is alarming at best. No, I am not fear mongering, only passing on something that needs to be said. Is this what they’re planning? I hope not, although it sure sounds that way. From @thehistorywizard.bsky.social (@TheHistoryWizard on TikTok)

TODAY!!! SHOW UP!!! (Cause you know Rob Wittman won't) @indivisibleva.bsky.social @50501virginia.bsky.social @rva-indivisible.bsky.social @bluevirginia.bsky.social @vademocrats.bsky.social @hanovervadems.bsky.social @goochlanddems.bsky.social

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Equity Arc, which trains young musicians of color, was set to play with the US Marine Band — until Trump's anti-DEI order canceled the show. But Chicago stepped up, and now the students will perform at @chicagosymphony.bsky.social on 4/6. Grab a free ticket and join me in cheering them on. cso.org

In a stunning legal rebuke, a federal judge has ruled that Elon Musk and officials from the Department of Government Efficiency must reinstate nearly all functions of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

Boycott Airbnb! They’re DOGE!

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

While the Russian Useful Idiot in the White House is busy claiming bullshit wartime authority to further his efforts destructing Democracy, just a reminder that everything he has said is a lie & everything that he says going forward will be a lie. As for his enablers, screw them.

ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed. No one knows why he was detained.

It's not hard. This is unacceptable. They won't stop at him.

Keep calling and keep up the pressure. They can't screw us with their spending cuts if they don't get the votes.

JUST NOW: Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi set the record straight on Social Security. Everyone needs to hear this.

The cover-up… USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”

Tonight, during a local news broadcast, WGN-Chicago, there was a commercial sponsored by Dept of Homeland Sec. Kristi Noem was telling illegal immigrants to return to their home country or face deportation with no chance of ever returning to U.S. again. It ended with a large picture of Trump.

These Dem members of Congress are eager, I'm sure, to tell you why voted in favor of censuring their colleague Al Green (TX09):

For those who wanted to share this video off platform. Here it is on YouTube youtu.be/OiPa9VY9PH8?...

Now they're bribing people to resign because they know how legally difficult it is to fire people.

BREAKING: Watch as Senator Chuck Schumer, Senator Patty Murray, Senator Ron Wyden, Senator Amy Klobuchar & U.S. Senate Democrats speak live from the Capitol on Donald Trump and Elon Musk's efforts to destroy the Social Security Administration. PLEASE SHARE FAR & WIDE! www.youtube.com/@SenateDemoc...

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

Full page ad in today’s New York Times:

@mcfaulmike.bsky.social: “Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.”

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Thou shalt not deport hard working, good people whilst importing vile criminals like the Tate brothers and still claim you have morals.

I'm struggling to get over what we saw today. The amount of gaslighting, cruelty, ignorance, abject cowardice, arrogance, indifference to human life, and deceit we saw from Trump and Vance...we saw behavior we associate with enemies of the United States inside the Oval Office. That's traumatizing.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com
