If Not Now When?

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.

Green graphic with white and blue text: "This Court has all it needs to conclude that Defendants have trampled on Senator Kelly's First Amendment freedoms and threatened the constitutional liberties of millions of military retirees. After all, as Bob Dylan famously said, 'You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.' – Judge Richard Leon, Blocking the Trump administration's retaliatory attempt to downgrade Senator Mark Kelly's military retirement rank and pay"

The First Amendment extends to all of us, no matter what the Trump administration says.

My statement on SCOTUS striking down Trump’s tariffs.

But placing him above the law by granting immunity and letting him wiggle out of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is totally cool.

👇👇

Trump's Friday morning so far:

-- extremely disappointing 4th quarter GDP number
-- inflation report hotter than expected
-- Supreme Court strikes down tariffs

@ilyasomin.bsky.social and his team led this effort to prevent an abuse of emergency powers by Trump and prevailed. Follow him if you don’t already.

It’s the real Liberation Day. 🇺🇸

Fox News announces that Trump's tariffs have been struck down.

I kept waiting for Swan Lake to start playing.

BREAKING

In a 6–3 decision, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that President Trump’s use of emergency tariffs was unlawful.

Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Brett Kavanaugh dissented.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts authored the majority opinion.

The Golden Age of So Much Winning.

All they do is lie.

Every Democrat—no, every person with any decency—should be a no show for the State of the Union.

Thirsty Donald *hates* to be ignored.

Wondering if any republicans in Congress who flipped out when Clinton and Lynch ran into each other, or wouldn’t shut up about Jack Smith “conspiring” with Biden, would have anything to say about this shit.

Philadelphia’s slavery exhibit is being restored at President’s House Site The panels depict the lives of nine people enslaved by George Washington while he was president.

The NY Daily News: “It's time to acknowledge what has become tragically obvious: the Trump administration is operating a massive criminal enterprise. It lies, steals, extorts, and murders - all while cloaked in the awesome authority of the state. It is on a crime spree that puts Al Capone to shame.”

Women's Rights are Democratic Rights: The Global Authoritarian Backlash to Gender Equality, by Hillary Rodham Clinton

I can say from personal experience that Putin is threatened by strong women.

As I argue in a new piece in @foreignaffairs.com, he and his fellow autocrats have reason to fear us:

Defending women's rights and combating authoritarianism is the same fight.

President Trump is a disgrace. He's easily the most corrupt President in American history by a long shot.

I'm not attending his State of the Union to listen to him ramble and lie.

Instead, I'll be sharing the ways he's hurting hardworking Americans.

New York Appellate Court Allows Redraw of Congressional Map to Move Forward But there’s still one wildcard that could affect the map used in the 2026 midterm elections: the U.S. Supreme Court.

BREAKING: In a win for Black and Latino voters, a New York appellate court rules the state’s independent redistricting commission can move forward in drawing a new congressional map.

As a result, the state will get a new map that would likely hand Democrats one more seat in Congress.

$413,000 per bed. Insanity.

words projected on the front of the USIP building that say “Trump destroyed this Institution, imposing his name on the building, a narcissistic attempt to associate himself with peacemaking.”

New — This was projected on the US Institute of Peace building this evening ahead of the first meeting tomorrow of Trump’s farcically-named “Board of Peace.”
