It’s ok to bribe the president when he’s on a break
REPORTER: On the president's dinner tonight, will the White House commit to making a list of the attendees public so people can see who's paying for that kind of access to the president?

LEAVITT: The president is attending it in his personal time

"You said there were no cuts to scientists, and then the HHS spox said, 'Actually, there were cuts to scientists and now we're trying to rehire them.' It gives the impression you're not sure about personnel actions in own agency." -- Jon Ossoff just dismantled FDA Commissioner Makary

ICYMI: "While the administration says the reduction in force 'was implemented to improve ‘efficiency’ and ‘accountability,’ the 'record abundantly reveals that Defendants’ true intention is to effectively dismantle the Department without an authorizing statute.'"

GALLEGO: You requested $50m for a Gulfstream jet. Meanwhile, Rs are about to kick 13m off Medicaid. How can you justify that?

NOEM: It's to replace a jet that's over 20 years old

G: Would you be using it for travel?

N: No idea

G: We've seen the Instagram photos. Some really bad weapons handling.

There aren't AI experts we can just hire to do the important integration and training work for us yet. It is too new. Teachers are the leaders right now out on the frontiers. Via @emollick.bsky.social over on LinkedIn. #EduSky #AiEDU #AISky

ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.

I just think it’s funny that the president thinks making everything more expensive will be no big deal in a nation that exists because its ancestors overthrew their government rather than pay an extra tax on tea

UPDATE: ICE is wildly unconcerned about where this man is and no one will tell me, his registered attorney. The universal answer so far is "let's wait and see where he ends up." This is deeply off.

We would have more rights at this point if UPS had lost a pair of shoes I'd just bought from Zappos
My detained client was scheduled for a bond hearing this AM in a MA immigration court. He wasn't brought in, and he and his case have disappeared.

I then received this notice of activity on a nonexistent docket in which his name was changed to "N/A"

It's all happening a lot faster than I expected

We the people are taking action to stop a hostile government takeover. On April 5, 5.2 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy!

Save the date for our next national day of action on April 19th.

Reposting with alt text information since it's missing. Cartoon Trump is golfing. He has just swung and hit the ball (a globe) down a line graph that shows a volatile few weeks and then a sharp drop with the globe sitting at the bottom of the chart. The path of the shot is labeled, "Tarrified."
It would be great if you also included information about the lack of transparency about exactly how much VOCs are in products. In my experience, these are the culprits of my asthma flares.

If you can’t alt text, tag alt4me and a volunteer will come help you!

If we work together we can make this platform accessible.

Disabled people often can’t attend protests & are left out of boots on the ground action.

We are restricted to digital activities & need inclusivity!
Please use ALT text on your protest photos.

Disabled people are left out of non-disabled activism. Accommodations are not made. Intersectionality does not apply. We aren’t invited to participate. We have to fight for ourselves.

Leaving ALT off your images leaves disabled people out yet again.
