At least 12 Democrats are planning to boycott Trump's State of the Union address.

That's not enough.

"[I]it is right to speak of an Epstein administration: not bc Epstein himself holds office, but bc the ethos that protected and excused him is embedded in the president’s chosen company."

Yes, it's a #LongRead but it's well worth it. But the most cynical of us should beware, b/c you may end up believing we're actually winning.

Hey everyone. Potentially the biggest story in the country, right here. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Is that an excuse for 64-year-old Obama to be on vacation? I think octogenarian elected officials are mostly a bad idea, but I think all the older people out in the streets are heroic (and I'm on the board of @thirdactorg.bsky.social Act, 100,000 elders committed to climate and democracy).

Wide photo of a graffiti-covered concrete wall at a street-art spot. Across the top, stenciled black letters read “NOTHING TO SEE HERE.” Below, a large white rectangular panel uses black stencil text with several thick black censor bars, reading: “THE WORLD IS RUN BY PEDOPHILES” and “DONALD J. TRUMP IS A CHILD RAPIST Y’ALL.” To the left is a separate mural showing a wooden guillotine with the words “PROTECT CHILDREN” and “BEWARE LOCAL PEDO LOVERS!” Nearby are smaller tags, a heart outline, and layered paint drips; the ground in front is rough dirt and gravel with scattered debris and tufts of weeds.
