Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage.

Just do it.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The amount of Jew-hatred disguised as intellectual discourse is truly horrifying and sickening. And it’s very dangerous.

On Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s birthday, indulge in the cinematic world of the German iconoclast — seen here in Wim Wenders’s ROOM 666.

Have a Fassbinder marathon on the channel — we’ve have more than 20 of his films now playing. 🖤 bit.ly/3N5ZAqB

If you have a Republican senator please take the time to call and write them. Regularly. They won't care about the cruelty, so hammer them on the deficit. Tell them the only way to avoid bankrupting the country is to ditch the tax cuts for billionaires.

“Leaks suggest the Trump administration is now pushing for a ‘peace deal’ that heavily favours Russia.”

Stephen Miller is truly one of the most craven, awful, horrifying people I have reported on in my life. It is a blight on our nation so long as he has any power.

I’ve seen estimates as high as 5+ million for total #handsoff portests today, and just doing a very rough count of the biggest ones, it certain seems like in the millions.

Happy Birthday, Randall! As a bonus treat on this special day, might I recommend the often challenging but highly rewarding NYT Connections? 🎈

It was not only the longest speech in the history of the U.S. senate, it was the most powerful and damning indictment of this “administration” since its ungodly inception.

What’s most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard.

I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.

Arlington Cemetery strips content on black and female veterans from website - BBC News The Army-run cemetery said it is working to follow Trump's orders on ending diversity while restoring information.

“Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed from its website information and educational materials about the history of black and female service members” is the most shameful, disgraceful, dangerous thing I’ve read in the last 24 hours. #impeachtrumpvance

🪦 New Yorkers are in front of the New York Stock Exchange for a mass die-in to symbolize how these devastating cuts will destroy families & take lives.

Deep spending cuts to programs like healthcare, food assistance, and education is a matter of life & death for millions.

Congress: #StopTheCuts!

“I think it was the only way to really get his attention.”

Tell me Chuck Schumer is on the wrong side history without explicitly saying it.

Elon Musk's social insecurity The billionaire's reckless claims seem intended to manufacture outrage to justify an end to what he refers to as an “entitlement program.”

Ronald Reagan called Social Security “a secure and stable base.”

Elon Musk calls it a “Ponzi scheme.”

@barbmcquade.bsky.social calls it what it is: a lifeline—flawed but essential—that keeps millions out of poverty and ensures retirees see the returns on their investment

One year ago, I made this meme with my daughter in mind.

What could have been…
#BloodySunday

On this 60th anniversary of #BloodySunday, we remember the men and women who were beaten, tear gassed, and risked their lives on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama to secure voting rights for all — including my dear friend John Lewis.

“It has become clear that Trump is not saying what he is saying just to shake us up, but he is saying it because he means it.” -source: European diplomat.

The rest of the world gets it. When will we?

Let’s Create “Town Hall Night in America”

Moulton: He doesn’t have any sons or daughters who served in the military after 9/11. If just one of them had signed up, maybe he would know that we served on the ground alongside Canadian troops, French troops, troops from the UK, the Danes, the Poles—And you know, they lost a lot of lives there

The find out part

I agree with Donald Trump that an unelected bureaucrat should be fired.

Let’s start with Elon Musk.
