I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and I start with this clip of me from 2024 on Jimmy Kimmel Live and we talk about how Trump told us for years what he was going to do to the country now.

If this was a no, it would be really easy to say no.

Bondi’s ad hominem attack on Whitehouse is WAY more of an answer than she realizes.

When all children receive a high quality education that develops their critical thinking and problem solving skills poverty, hunger, and slavery will no longer affect millions.

Education gives hope, confidence and curiosity. And that breaks the cycle of powerlessness that leads to suffering.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

The Democratic Party needs to get younger, feistier, smarter at messaging and more in touch with the electorate, both at the state and federal levels.

Democratic voters need to get more discerning about who they choose to fight against the rising tide of oligarchic fascism.

Once upon a time, if a president head lied this brazenly, it would be considered a disgrace by both political parties

It only took 256 days to reach the “zip tying little kids at 2am on the street” stage of this administration.

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

Got a Minute or Two?: The Attack in Chicago The night-time raid on a Chicago apartment building and its residents is an ugly escalation by an immoral regime—and an attack on all decent people

"What kind of monsters grab children & take them outside without clothes? Who does that? What kind of govt permits its agents to abuse American citizens & non-citizens w/o the slightest concern for their rights, their well-being, indeed their basic humanity?"

Yom Kippur is a day of reflection, of forgiveness, of restoration. This year, may we all pray for a better, kinder, more peaceful future.

Wishing all who observe across the five boroughs and the world a meaningful, easy fast. G’mar chatimah tovah.

Dean: The president is unhinged

Johnson: A lot of folks on your side are too. I don’t control him

Dean: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals.

Johnson: I didn’t see it.

Dean: Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.
