Massive harm literally never stops. Epstein emails (that will have no consequences). Sneaking things into the “budget bill” - things like reduction of FDA oversight over things like salmonella. Offshore drilling destruction of marine habitats. Further restriction of women’s health choices. Help

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)
"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much.
"We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve.
"Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad.
"Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them.
"If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following:
• Plant a tree.
• Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail.
• Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do.
• Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it.
• Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone.
• Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something.
• Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace.
"Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

The American federal government has fallen so low that I don’t know if I will ever again respect a president. The power-mad, frantically insecure despot has activated the National Guard without agreement of the state governor. The first time in our history since 1965.

I have seen ICE and HSI raids in full gear with their acronym emblazoned, helmets, protective gear and no face covering. Then I have seen videos and pictures and heard stories of raids with black vans, men in all black with face masks. Are those fake stories? Why the difference?

So it turns out Pete Hegseth lied. And Michael Waltz lied. And Tulsi Gabbard lied. And also lied to Congress while under oath. And John Ratliffe lied. And also lied to Congress while under oath. And as ever Jeffrey Goldberg and the Atlantic were telling the truth. This is why journalism matters.

Wow- in response to questioning from Sen. Jack Reed, Tulsi Gabbard just testified that she was overseas while participating in the signal chat on bombing Yemen. He followed up by asking whether she was using a personal phone for the conversation and she refused to answer. Seems bad!

A really powerful WWII era "don't be a sucker" piece, that explains how authoritarians have to separate and destroy groups of people so they can take power. I don't usually watch anything this long (22 min) but couldn't stop watching once I started this.

My friend is an anesthesiologist at a VA hospital.  They are 4 anesthesiologists short of being full-staffed.  And thanks to Elon Chainsawhands, they are under a hiring freeze.  So when your favorite veteran’s quadruple bypass surgery gets canceled, remember who is responsible.

Let this sink in—the head of the EPA has now labeled climate science as “religion”, and reframed the purpose of the EPA to “lower the cost of buying a car… and running a business”—the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY! That’s where we are now. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/c...

Keith Self at his town hall said Medicaid will be cut but only “able bodied people that should be working”. Found how? Those with debilitating mental health disease trying to live independently? Folks with cancer treatment no longer covered after withdrawn grants. Anyone who identifies as non-white?

When I attended Keith Self’s town hall, he admitted Medicaid would be cut but only “able bodied people that should be working”. How will they will they find out who’s able bodied? The active military who can’t live on their salaries with the current inflation (they were at the town hall, asking). 1

Some are saying Democrats shouldn't attend Donald Trump's State of the Union. I disagree. They should attend. And the minute he starts speaking, start getting up, one-by-one, and solemnly leave the chamber. It will be all anyone talks about the next day. And will drive Donald crazy.

This is a script followed by large billionaire CEOs. Counting pencils, no travel or conferences, laying off probationary things we have lived. Next is forced ratings and rankings, laying off bottom 25%, merging departments and leaders and no regard to hurting end client. In this case US citizens.
