“So the bottom line is Trump doesn’t do the show anymore.” “Yeah.” That time Dave Letterman said Trump stopped doing the show unless he apologized for calling Trump “racist” — and Dave wouldn’t do it.

You are not alone if you believe that every American should have access to good affordable health care and the best public schools. You are actually part of an American majority.

More than 4.7 million people nationwide have lost their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, also known as food stamps, since Trump’s signature tax and spending law took effect last July, according to data through March from the Department of Agriculture — about 11% of participants.

Regardless of party, the people have a right to know whether the President is physically & cognitively capable of doing the job. That’s not politics. It’s accountability! Americans deserve honesty about the health of their elected leaders! #25thAmendment #Accountability #SheShed

Despite being under Republican control, the House just defied President Trump on the Iran war. No amount of lying or bullying by the White House can make Americans forget we're paying for a senseless war. Now even some GOP Members of Congress are recognizing they ultimately answer to us - not him.

For more than a decade, Stephen Colbert has been one of the top voices of late night—making us laugh and, even more importantly, reminding us who we are and what America stands for. Michelle and I enjoyed being Stephen’s guests—even when the games were rigged—and we’re grateful to call him a friend.

Two things to unpack here: 1) Trump is so illiterate that they had to pre-record him reading the Bible. 2) The Government is going to read the Bible on public tv all week while for weeks they’ve been howling about how Iran is run by religious extremists.
Trump is so illiterate that he had to pre-record his weird af Bible reading and apparently the government will be reading fork the Bible all week on public television

"Today, Trump comes to Charlottesville not asking for forgiveness. Not honoring the legacy of Heather Heyer, who was killed that day by a white nationalist. He comes to continue his narcissistic grift..." - @tomperriello.bsky.social bluevirginia.us/2026/04/frid...
https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/legal-aid-justice-center/website-main-donation-form?refcode=260410em_tp_trump-cville&emci=d18de605-fe34-f111-8ef2-000d3a14b640&emdi=ad8ebfa5-0335-f111-8ef2-000d3a14b640&ceid=17239706

Donald Trump will be in Charlottesville today.

My beloved hometown of Charlottesville is already stuck with a horrific connection to Donald Trump. He inspired a neo-nazi mob to invade our town, armed to the teeth and spewing hate. Along with thousands of neighbors of every race and faith, I faced off that day against those shouting “Heil Trump” and calling openly for a race war. Trump infamously saw this and concluded that there were “very fine people on both sides.”

Today, Trump comes to Charlottesville not asking for forgiveness. Not honoring the legacy of Heather Heyer, who was killed that day by a white nationalist. He comes to continue his narcissistic grift — to boost his vineyard that produces nothing but undrinkable “wine” and disdain. A fundraiser for MAGA Inc., his money laundering operation for selling off White House influence.

The last President to visit here was Barack Obama. He came with the President of France to visit the home of the author of our Declaration of Independence. I’m taking a moment today to remember what it felt like to have a U.S. President who brought honor to the office. When a presidential visit was something to celebrate.

We cannot prevent Trump from desecrating our town. Instead, we can honor the legacy of Heather Heyer and a beloved Cville through our actions. Speak out, vote, volunteer, and find reservoirs of joy. Also, consider giving a donation today to Charlottesville's Legal Aid and Justice Center. They fight every day to limit the attacks on our Constitution and community, and to provide legal services to those caught in the crosshairs of hate.
