Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

Why stop there? Let’s rename all Depts after what Trump is inflicting on America.

Dept of HHS -> Dept of Hepatitis and Human Suffering
Dept of VA -> Dept of Veteran Abandonment
Dept of Education -> Dept of Erasure of History
Dept of Commerce -> Dept of Corruption

Just a start.

Why Isn't Donald Trump's Declining Health Being Covered by Corporate Media?

Where are the op-eds & news programs calling for Trump's resignation due to his declining health, impaired abilities, & march towards fascism? Oh, yeah, "both sides" corporate journalism.

Republicans in Congress have structured the most painful benefit cuts in their budget bill to kick in AFTER the 2026 midterms. 

But the tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy? Those begin immediately.

Remember this.

How My Reporting on the Columbia Protests Led to My Deportation As an Australian who wrote about the demonstrations while on campus, I gave my phone a superficial clean before flying to the U.S. I underestimated what I was up against.

Foundation trustees, help save democracy or get out of the way Hi everyone, I’m thinking of all my friends and colleagues in Canada, who just achieved a resounding election victory against...

“if you’re afraid of being seen as political, if everyone around you is spending significant effort trying to bring you along, then you’re standing in the way of progress, and you should resign so people with courage can do their work unimpeded by your presence.”

This, in a nutshell, is why the Justice Department remains independent from the White House when it comes to directing criminal prosecution. A country that fails to take to heart the lessons of Watergate ends up with Trump.

Silicon Valley crosswalk buttons apparently hacked to imitate Musk, Zuckerberg voices Crosswalk buttons along the mid-Peninsula appear to have been hacked, so that when pressed, voices professing to be Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk begin speaking.

These hackers are the heroes America needs right now. Kind of like a mashup of The Onion and Mr. Robot. www.paloaltoonline.com/technology/2...

Remember when top Trump officials used an unsecured app, Signal, to share confidential military plans & then lied about it and they continue to expose our national security to potential foreign countries and enemies by using unsecure communications and most of them still have their jobs? Fun times.

These two videos here. This is good. This is good messaging. One good part is conceding and respecting disagreement but zeroing in on the parts of what is happening that very few people agree with or feel able to justify.

A fake billionaire is letting a fake genius destroy America because a bunch of fake patriots are too stupid, too entitled and too hateful to understand the difference between what is fake news and what is fact.

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass
