FLASHBACK: “I am a goal for those people. If I’m not up there untaxed… they’ve got nothing to dream about.” Colbert was incredible. Since CBS doesn’t appreciate him maybe he should go back to this genius character? We could sure use it now. 🇺🇸 H/T @rbreich.bsky.social

Republicans are taking a wrecking ball to our healthcare system. And it’s starting now.

🚨NEW: When ICE raided a Californian farm yesterday, they snatched & disappeared a disabled US veteran who was in his car. They smashed his window, peppered sprayed him & dragged him to the floor. Listen to his wife & sister here, distraught. No-one will tell them where he is. (🎥 ABC 7 News)

Reporter: Yesterday you said you weren't sure who ordered the munitions halted to Ukraine—have you since been able to figure that out? Trump: I have not thought about it. Reporter: What does it say that such a big decision could be made inside your government without you knowing?

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

“What The World Needs Now Is Love” ❤️🌍 In 2016, following the heartbreaking Pulse nightclub tragedy, Broadway’s brightest stars came together to record this song. Their message: love conquers all. 🌈 This is a reminder that even in the darkest times, love, unity, and music can bring light. ✨🎵💜

Next time someone in Congress glibly dismisses your need for healthcare, remember that they have some of the best healthcare in the country. And it was paid for by YOU.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Boyle: "This is really the breaking news ... because of the size of the deficits, because of the paygo act, that would trigger sequestration of Medicare, and it would total over $500 billion. The official figure that CBO confirms is $535 billion in cuts to Medicare."

So the people at @msnbc.com helped me make a video on planegate

"You are not refugees. You are just a case study of white flight dressed up as martyrdom. You are not escaping violence, you're escaping equality."

AOC: The math is not adding up. Their claim is that one million undocumented people are on Medicaid. So why are they trying to cut 13.7 million Americans off their healthcare?

THIS!

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election. Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.

This is a scandal. Protect Social Security. Fire Elon Musk.

"Presidential profit" is a phrase our founders explicitly tried to prevent. Yet here we are, with Trump and his allies grifting every dollar they can get using the highest office in America to do it. www.axios.com/2025/05/02/t...

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago. It also received $22M in federal aid. While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

If Amazon caved to the felon regarding posting the cost of items with the tariffs, then other businesses that are not beholden to a felon should actually do that. Consumers will reward your honesty.
