Someone has been projecting images all over D.C. “It’s swampier than ever.” The Kennedy Center one is pretty hilarious. 😂😂😂

Donald Trump and the GOP are trying to steal, suppress and gerrymander to stay in power. Elias Law Group has 83 active voting and election cases in 42 states. We will not stop fighting. We will not stop winning. ⚖️ 💪🗳️

i named a cat after Jack White and right now i couldn’t be more proud

Jess Calarco@jessicacalarco.com

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats. Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.

Elites and institutions have not “collapsed.” They have not “changed their tunes.” They have not “failed.” They are not “cowards.” They were and are simply been focused only on their own self-preservation and profit. Nothing has changed. They simply made a cost benefit analysis, and fascism wins.

Media: Joe Biden, we demand you have a granular level of knowledge about every domestic & foreign policy issue confronting our nation Also Media: Sir, your mastery of public policy is astounding even though you're just reading off a piece of paper and clearly have no idea what you're talking about

Trump: "You're talking about Abrego Garcia -- is an illegal alien MS-13 gang member and foreign terrorist. This comes out of the State Department and very legitimate sources I assume. I'm just giving you what they handed to me but this is supposed to be certified stuff."

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down. Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

Half of the United States has been slowly and carefully inculcated by Fox News to believe that the other half of the country is their enemy and out to ruin their lives. Once this was established, it didn't take long for those viewers to value hurting these other Americans over helping themselves.

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you. If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you. If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you. We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

📌Goddammit, media, STOP calling DOGE a department. It is NOT a department. What it is, is a bunch of snot-nosed, pock-faced Orcs headed up by a racist billionaire, to reek havoc on America, and stuff his bottomless pockets. Start doing better. -Thanks

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Why do we keep framing this on terms of courage? Yes, the attorney was courageous and righteous. But the GOP in Congress aren't chicken, they're corrupt. They're all in on destroying the government so they can rule endlessly on the ashes. They don't love the country bc they don't love the people.

Given developments at the Kennedy Center, effective today I am resigning as artistic advisor to the NSO. Not for me. It’s been a wonderful 8 years working with Kennedy Center President Deb Rutter, fellow artistic advisor Renee Fleming, NSO artistic administrator Justin Ellis, and the entire NSO

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.

NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group: "The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board

This Cybertruck did not crash. It made a heartfelt and perhaps ill-advised gesture that, in the moment, might have been misinterpreted as a crash, but we should not rush to judgement.

yes yes this At Plan C, we believe that they'll continue to be available thru it all, but if you get them *now*, you might have a much easier time. We really don't know what's going to happen, but we do know that you can get them now for decent prices, and they last for 2-5 years.

If you live in an abortion-restricted state, order your abortion pills now. PlanCPill.org will direct you to a provider who delivers to your state. If you live in Texas, you'll need to go through AidAccess.org. Legal jeopardy is on the provider, not the recipient--for now. So order them now.

Re-upping this. If you happen to know how to get a hold of Biden, could you let him know?

Dear Joe, I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act. So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now. ~ Everyone

Republicans on the NC Supreme Court just blocked certification of a Democratic justice's election win. Her GOP opponent is trying to throw out 60,000 ballots cast in November, citing debunked far-right legal theories. This assault on democracy should be a national scandal.

$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.
