Fantastic Bernie and AOC event and awesome turnout last night at Folsom Lake College… about 30,000 (unpaid) people showed up, with lines 3 miles long to get in. Feeling hopeful and inspired! πŸ’™

Good for the Atlanticβ€” Trump and team are trying to cover this up but these clowns are putting the United States at risk with their incompetence. The liars need to be called out and Hegseth, Waltz, and others fired.

We Can’t Give In to Fear From Marc | No one wants to speak up. Everyone wants to hide or lay low.

Go ahead and stay silent. Let fear rule you. Watch injustice happen. Just don’t act like you did not know and accept that you are the latest in a long line of cowards who learned nothing from the past. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

We speak today on behalf of the legal profession and its members who seek to live by the oath each took upon admission to the bar.

We reject efforts to undermine the courts and the profession. We will not stay silent in the face of efforts to remake the legal profession into something that rewards those who agree with the government and punishes those who do not. Words and actions matter. And the intimidating words and actions we have heard must end. They are designed to cow our country’s judges, our country’s courts and our legal profession. These efforts cannot be sanctioned or normalized.

There are clear choices facing our profession. We can choose to remain silent and allow these acts to continue or we can stand for the rule of law and the values we hold dear. We call upon the entire profession, including lawyers who serve in elected positions, to speak out against intimidation. We acknowledge that there are risks to standing up and addressing these important issues. But if the ABA and lawyers do not speak, who will speak for the organized bar? Who will speak for the judiciary? Who will protect our system of justice? If we don’t speak now, when will we speak?

The American Bar Association has chosen to stand and speak. Now is the time for all of us to speak with one voice. We invite you to stand with us.

I participated in the economic boycott yesterday and at the same time questioned whether that would have any impact. This professor studied the effectiveness of non-violent demonstrations and actions (like yesterday’s boycott) and her findings give me hope. It takes only 3.5% of us.

Zelensky has thanked the United States on numerous occasions since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022 – expressing gratitude to Trump and Biden, to members of Congress from both parties, to US defense companies and their employees, and to the American people.

This doesn’t make sense… they knew and got called out on it. Even as a US citizen to take a tour of the White House you have to go through clearance and get approved far in advance, and even the day of, you walk thru an hour of security checkpoints and review. No one gets in haphazardly like that.

Shameful behavior by Trump and Vanceβ€” no guardrails. Trump is Putin’s puppet and he put it on display for the world to see. I hope Americans wake up β€” Trump is a disaster.

Russia’s greatest military asset is not any bomb, tank, plane or ship. It is the Republican Party.

Putin's Razor: Yet More Evidence That Trump is a Kremlin Asset Donald has aligned himself, and by extension the United States of America, with a petty, cruel, genocidal tyrant.

Since my piece dropped yesterday, Trump went on TV and proposed his "gold card" for immigration, saying he "knows some Russian oligarchs that are very nice people."
