This is so embarrassing for Mike Johnson.

Things to consider:

Document the violence & violations--on camera, w/photos, saving images--any way you can. Speaking as a historian- it will matter

Point out violations--w/images & text--even if you think it won't matter. It will. It needs to be called out & exposed

You are a witness.
Expose it.

They’re not acting like they’re in a four-year term.

They’re acting like they’re in an everlasting dictatorship.

Are we all clear on this?

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality.

Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook.

Our duty is to stand up to brutality.

Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

Aren’t the worst of the worst actually in the Trump Administation and responsible for attacking the American people and the rule of law??

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

Gov. Pritzker: "[ICE] killed an unarmed person just a couple of weeks ago in Franklin Park...They killed somebody...They are just putting out their propaganda and then we've gotta later determine what actually happened."

Listening to Rachel Maddow’s podcast Ultra. It’s not difficult to connect the dots from pro-facist Sen. Joe McCarthy to Roy Cohn to Trump.

We should consider what actions need to be taken now. Not that looking at our mistakes isn’t helpful but there is serious crisis of leadership. Just look at who is in power & the destruction that is taking place on so many levels.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.

Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Not going to cry for Comey. His actions led to Trump’s first term.

Pretty clear from Rachel Maddow’s interview w/ Kamala Harris that she is not only promoting her book but that she will run for POTUS again.

Keep an eye on the thermostat!

Soothing the soul in troubled times. 🙏😘

Just gives me a big headache!

Kudos to Stephen Colbert on his Emmy win last night. It was a pleasure chatting with him a few weeks ago on The Late Show about how rampant inequality has brought us to this moment in American history — and what we can do to fix our politics.

We are truly on our own. The good news is that there are millions of us who value democracy and are willing to fight for it. Let’s take action now.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents.

It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually.

This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

Doing makes the wishing so.

What every good leader know is that it still depends upon the Assembly.
