Until we have a functioning legislative branch back in power that will hold Trump’s feet to the fire, the America you and I grew up in is dead.

Mid-terms. Please for the love of dog, vote.

As Toni Morrison said, "the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work." But she also reminded us never to lose our capacity to be shocked.

After being released from jail and facing months of legal issues ahead of her…

Q: Do you plan to continue with the band and play…

A: I think this has only strengthened my commitment to social justice. And yeah, I feel even more committed to what people are protesting at the ICE building.

If we are taking in β€œtrillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

R.I.P. the First Amendment, Killed by Cowardice and Greed We will all mourn eventually. Even the long list of those who murdered our foundational freedom.

Periodically, throughout our history, the first amendment has been abused. But never like it is now. In fact, the freedom of expression we once took for granted is, for the moment at least, gone. It's future depends on us. My latest. www.thedailybeast.com/rip-the-firs...

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.
