thehill.com/homenews/hou... I figure I should draw attention to somewhat normal behavior by elected officials, in this case, that of house speaker Mike Johnson. Who knew that a pardoned Jan 6 rioter might commit subsequent crimes. Speaker Johnson, thank you for your attention to this matter.

I'm late on posting about this issue, but wanted to share this very interesting video on election interference. Sadly, this aligns with my cybersecurity background. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nus...

Interesting analysis about how Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" has a nasty payload even the legislators who approved it weren't aware of. youtu.be/94ndDNQxIbw?...

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social on Joni Ernst: "She must be having a nervous breakdown."

The new GOP slogan (thank you, Joni Ernst.)

Awkward way for Joni Ernst to find out she isn’t funny. Let’s stop sending people like Joni Ernst and Lindsey Graham to the Senate.

When home rehabber Paweł Radzik bought a modest, three-bedroom ranch-style house in south suburban Dolton last year, he did not know that it was the boyhood home of Robert Prevost — now known to the world as Pope Leo XIV.

A moment in Canadian history to refer to when someone tells you their vote doesn't matter. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

It's nice to know that Trump and his cronies will have a place to spend their retirement from public disservice. Well done, Donald! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Journalist Carole Cadwalladr, who recently left The Observer, a Guardian Media publication being sold to Tortoise Media, talks about how social media platforms have capitulated to Trump. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZOo...

The Daily Show shines an interesting light on issues in the news that need a little more attention, using its comedic talent. This is an interesting interview with Senator Tammy Duckworth about Trump's betrayal of the veterans who make up a large chunk of his base. youtu.be/HcCsm3wKStk?...

Bill Maher's observations on having supper with Trump made the news cycle - and for good reason, as he's one of the first to ridicule Trump. This interesting point of view helps explain what went on. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HQA...

Lutnick: "The army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in little screws to make iPhones -- that kind of thing is going to come to America."

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

David Pakman has issued a red alert about the Trump administration's attempts to influence a well-know online publisher from delisting books, including his own, that paint that administration in an unfavorable light. Now they're coming after your books! youtu.be/GtEymx55dnU?...

www.politico.eu/article/save... Excellent reporting from Politico.eu on three courageous Ukrainian teens whose resistance attracted the attention of Save Ukraine, a rescue organization specializing in repatriating Ukrainian children and youth.

Trump’s mental decline is obvious every time he speaks. Just read the actual quotes in today’s column. Incoherent babble. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

The insiders seem to have had a 20min warning before the public

So on brand for this GOP sending an election denier to dismantle the voice of democracy around the world. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

"What the U.S. is doing now is not reform. It is rejecting the very system it created." - Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong (April 8, 2025)

NEW: Yesterday, the Justice Department sent armed marshals to warn former U.S. pardon attorney Liz Oyer not to disclose internal DOJ information during her Senate testimony. Today, Oyer is speaking out to condemn the DOJ’s actions and defend the rule of law.

This!

Those Heard and McDonald Islands freeloaders will finally be brought to justice! They're not even Navy Seals! So glad that Trump's 0.009 administration will put an end to the bleeding!

They're terrorizing our federal employees in real ways and the impact is devastating for all of us. I spoke to a VA employee and FBI Agent about what they're experiencing and it will shock you. This is the most important thing I've written. Please read and share. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

TV Ontario (TVO) provides excellent perspectives on the thinking of Canada's most populous province. Steve Paikin interviews a team of experts familiar to TVO fans. Canadians will "get it" and Americans will be enlightened. youtu.be/bTCqfy5YO7o?...

Dark Pence is back.

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."
