I still think every candidate from now on should have to pass the updated US citizenship exam (it's not a cakewalk) *and* show how a family of four with two minimum-wage incomes can afford all the basics (home, food, clothing, transport) PLUS healthcare (& they have to show the math). 🤷‍♀️

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

This is excellent. In three minutes she explains how democracies become dictatorships. It's happened so many times, yet in each country, most people said, 'it can't happen here'

I almost skipped this because, well, duh. Don't skip it. It does a great job of addressing our current situation without ever saying a word about our current situation. HCR is, as always, outstanding.

This is a Shivah ribbon, worn while in mourning. I wear it now to mourn the loss of the America I loved. To grieve the loss of a free country.
Black ribbon with an intentional rip to symbolize the pain of grief.

I call on the Hungarian authorities to allow the Budapest Pride to go ahead. Without fear of any criminal or administrative sanctions against the organisers or participants. To the LGBTIQ+ community in Hungary and beyond: I will always be your ally.

Make your voices heard, people. Hate the bill the House passed? Tell your reps or adjacent reps in your state. Here are some from my state: Boebert: 202-225-4761 Crank: 202-225-4422 Hurd: 202-225-4676 Evans: 202-225-5625 They don’t like phone calls. What do we say? Tough!

Join the nationwide effort to use your voices! You can do this with your kids too. Send letters (yes, letters!) to the government entities. Bonus: this action also supports the USPS.

I’ve been wondering for decades why women still change their names when they marry. Change your names back NOW, friends! So that you can vote in perpetuity. (I can’t believe I had to type that sentence…)

More than 50 Dallas County vaccine clinics canceled following federal funding cuts, layoffs
Cuts to federal funding cuts forced the Dallas Department of Health and Human Services to lay off 11 staff and 10 temporary workers. Many of the terminated employees worked in immunization outreach.

Vermont Public reporter Brittany Patterson spent time at a business roundtable in Newport, Vermont and on the streets of Magog, Quebec to find out how Canadians are feeling about President Donald Trump's rhetoric and policies.

'Ridiculous,' 'bad' and 'scared': Quebec residents weigh in on Trump's policies toward Canada
A pause on some tariffs is expected to end on April 2, and Trump is not backing down on calls for Canada to join the U.S. Some Quebec residents are increasingly angry and worried tensions could escala...

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

I would pay money to watch a truck filled with paint ballers drive by a Tesla dealership and creatively repaint the cars. Could be a great way to raise money for all the unemployed federal workers…

Dianna Degette, Michael Bennet, John Hickenlooper, Hakeem Jeffries: posts on X (really? X?) and resolutions expressing outrage are not enough. Where are the press conferences? Why don’t you flood the news cycle? We need to know that you’ll speak and fight for us. You’re effectively invisible.
