He’s no longer β€œflirting.” He is lawlessly and flagrantly defying the court right now. We are in a constitutional crisis, full stop.

The Narnians clearly don’t have the cards.

Who would want to retain a law firm that would cave so quickly?

The coup continues. At the US Department of Labor today in DC to protest Elon Musk’s takeover. Poor Frances Perkins must be rolling over in her grave.

With Trump’s grotesque war on immigrants, who are the backbone of food production in this country, his absurd trade war with Canada and Mexico, and the ongoing bird flu crisis, the food supply chain will be in chaos in the US in a very short period of time.

Dems can:

-oppose all Trump nominees until this EO is withdrawn
-deny unanimous consent to slow senate proceedings
-vote no on all cloture
-force quorum calls at every chance

It’s a constitutional crisis. There is absolutely no reason the Senate should be connecting business as usual.

I am happy to report that my new book, *Another Generation Cometh: A Family History*, is now available via online booksellers. The self-published book is a study of my family's history, excavated from archives from the U.S. and the czarist Russian empire.

Solidarity with all my friends in the South Korean labor movement who are facing the repercussions of President Yoon Suk Yeol's disgraceful declaration of martial law, the first in that country since 1980. Supporters of democracy the world over stand with you. @laborkorea #1u

When insulin was first patented in 1923, the discoverers declined to put their names on it as they felt that insulin belonged to the public.

101 years later, insulin is inaccessible to thousands of Americans because of price gouging by near-monopoly private insurance corporations and their PBMs.

A massive failure of AG Garland who waited until November 18, 2022 before appointing Smith special counsel.

What's the opposite of "virtue signaling"? Iniquity signaling?

First progressive victory of the Trump II era. An important reminder that he’s not invincible.

Congress needs to act immediately during this recess to amend the Insurrection Act to prevent this illegitimate use of the US military on American soil to build internment camps and round up without due process whomever the new regime designates as personal non grata. This is outrageous.

We must reject politiciansβ€”and their consultantsβ€” who have no core values and who are willing to throw victimized people under the bus. Every so often we need to dust the cobwebs off NiemΓΆller's poem, β€œFirst They Came.” It’s resonant once again in the United States of America.

It’s wild how quickly major media outlets are sane-washing utterly insane Cabinet nominations.

I'm afraid those who are talking about blocking Senate confirmation of Trump's absolutely horrible cabinet nominees are thinking, come January 20, we'll still have quaint, old-fashioned "checks and balances" in our government. Best to strap in. We're in for quite a ride.
