So, @GregAbbott_TX has time to write fan fiction, but he can’t call his buddy and get the crap stopped in Big Bend? Even if you are Republican, this needless destruction in our treasured national park should make mad. Vote correctly in November and fire the fool!

Lmao… they’ve already pulled the Qatari Air Force One from service to be upgraded with all the capabilities that it should have had before Trump forced them to rush it for his birthday.

Daily proof that confidence and competence are unrelated.

In 250 years, Louisiana has sent 171 white men to Congress.

During Reconstruction, Black people were elected and denied their seats. Only one Black man — Charles Nash — served in the 1800s.

Then from 1877 to 1990, Louisiana sent zero Black people to Congress. Zero. For 113 years.

In 1990, Black Louisiana finally got a member of Congress again. Since then, white voters have elected 25 members. Black voters have had 4.

All 4 were in the same room fighting to keep the two seats Black Louisiana fought for.

Don’t tell us this isn’t about denying Black people representation. It always has been.

@repcleofields_ and @reptroycarter were joined by former Congressman Cedric Richmond and William Jefferson to let the record be clear that Black voters are due fair maps.

This image should put things into perspective for you.

Today at the state Capitol, the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee will vote on which congressional map Louisiana will have.

🚨 Rhode Island has banned assault weapons.

Assault weapons were used in 12 of the 20 deadliest mass shootings.

Ro Khanna: “We need to say it was a genocide. We need to say there can be no military sales of weapons that kill civilians to Israel. We need to say we’re done with US aid, not a dollar more to Israel, a rich country, a first world country. They can buy for themselves. And we need to be for the recognition of a Palestinian state”

I feel like people aren’t hearing me:

We had four ‘1000 year floods’ in 4 different states last week and Trump’s passed budget completely defunds NOAA’s Severe Storm Research Lab. 👇

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

Corruption alert! The Trump Administration is dropping charges against MS-13 gang members at the request of Salvadoran dictator Bukele, who reportedly wants them removed from US to stop them from testifying to his corrupt MS-13 ties. A major scandal. https://t.co/gkm1knJeWv

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

Cuts to Medicaid in the Senate’s budget bill could close 338 hospitals across the country, jeopardize millions of people’s health care, and threaten people’s lives.

Working people say, hell no!

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

BREAKING: In a mind-blowing moment, Senator Warren grills Trump's U.S. Trade Rep Jamieson Greer, forcing him to concede the Trump Admin doesn't care about manufacturing job losses, saying they won't even lift tariffs if 700,000 jobs are lost each month.

[Malena-PRO-CHOICE🟦🟧Fighting Tyranny! @tweetMalena]

When I woke up this morning, 1st thing I hear is my 23 year-old daughter on the phone talking to our Congressman's office demanding he reject the SAVE Act.

I hadn't mentioned it to her.

She saw it on social media & called.

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

In my life I have never seen a more brutal evisceration of an American president than what The Economist said about Trump and his tariffs.

IF YOU failed to spot America being “looted, pillaged, raped and plundered by nations near and far” or it being cruelly denied a “turn to prosper”, then congratulations: you have a firmer grip on reality than the president of the United States. It’s hard to know which is more unsettling: that the leader of the free world could spout complete drivel about its most successful and admired economy. Or the fact that on April 2nd, spurred on by his delusions, Donald Trump announced the biggest break in America’s trade policy in over a century—and committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era.

[Victor Shi @Victorshi2020]

THIS is what it means to flood the zone. Time for Democrats to do this. Now.

[Mother Jones @MotherJones]

Gathered outside the headquarters of the USAID, a fiery group of congressional Dems debuted what felt like a new—and potent—message:

Elon Musk is acting as an unqualified shadow president, and he’s breaking the law along the way.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

America now has 815 billionaires who currently hold a record $6.7 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% of Americans control $3.7 trillion in wealth.

When 815 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
