Two weeks ago, I was the first to report the existence of training videos instructing FBI personnel to flag mentions of Trump in the Epstein files. This weekend, I sued them for the videos.

Every Democrat in Congress but 3 voted to ban partisan gerrymandering in 2021/2022 with Freedom to Vote Act & every single Republican voted against it. There should be no false equivalence on this issue

Here’s the thing, this doesn’t just apply to Missouri. GOP-dominated states, and their attorneys general, are all pushing for terrible policies.

If we don’t contest races in red states, if we don’t have the money to fight in these races, it ruins the entire country.

💯.

Immigrants contribute over $525B in taxes annually, including $12B to Social Security from undocumented workers who often get no benefits in return. They pay income, payroll & local taxes, & fund vital programs for us all. Protect our neighbors.

Hochul: "I will put saving democracy as my top priority at any cost. Bc it's under siege. Just like those who put on uniforms to fight battles across the ages. For centuries we stood up & fought. Blood has been shed. This is our moment in to stand up for all we hold dear & not let it be destroyed."

Texas Democrats aren’t running away from anything. They’re fighting, with every tool they have, to save our democracy.

Kudos to each and every one of them for taking this stand. We should be inspired by their courage and reminded that tyranny is only possible if we submit to it.

Casar: "This idea of fining legislators -- and now I'm starting to hear about the governor or the speaker of the house trying to expel lawmakers from office -- is deeply unconstitutional and it is part of a worrying trend ... it's the kind of authoritarian thing that we think about in other nations"

Alex on twitter writes: "Someone on Twitter writes: "You’re a menswear writer. You don’t know anything about manufacturing in America, or steel mills, or metallurgy, or CNC machining, or how anything is produced from raw material into a finished product in this country or anywhere. Stick to writing about “men’s fashion."" I reply: "i actually had a career in knifemaking before this. the reason why you can't avoid tariffs in knifemaking is because everyone relies on Gobelin machinery. are you aware of this?" Alex replies: "Gobelin machinery? What exactly are you referring to?" I reply: "you Gobelin DEEZ NUTS!"

"stick to menswear"

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul says she's looking to redraw the state's legislative lines in response to the Texas gerrymander — even going so far as to suggest amending the state constitution to move up the timeline.

Hochul: "This is a war. We are at war. And that's why the gloves are off and I say, bring it on."

Write Your Eulogy Today One time, after we lost a family member, my wife and I were talking about funerals, and she asked me who I’d want to give the eulogy at mine.

The challenge and the invitation we have on this side of our obituaries is to write as clear and beautiful a story as we can andtrust that it is enough.

I hope people understand that to redact a name from a document means their name was in the document—third impeachment anyone…….. 🍿

been waiting an awfully long time to see a russian whore piss on potus

FLAG: Greg Abbott is now threatening to remove Texas Democrats from office for fleeing the state — claiming they could be charged with crimes.

Democrats left the state to stop the passage of a severely-gerrymandered, Trump-approved congressional map.

No one should ever have to wonder if their senator or representative is making choices in Congress just to benefit their own wallet.

There's a clear solution: ban Congressional stock trading.

Texas Republicans being more committed to cheating voters with a frankenstein map than to doing emergency legislation to fix the state's flood warning systems is pretty much all you need to know about them.

It's so funny the guy who claims to have lowered drug prices by 1500% says he fired the head of BLS because she was bad at statistics.

Trump’s war on Big Law leads firms to retreat from ’pro bono’ work for underdogs Major law firms are scaling back the free work they do for advocacy groups fighting the government in the wake of Donald Trump’s attacks on the profession. Interviews with over 60 lawyers and 30 nonprofits show legal aid groups now have fewer resources to defend the vulnerable.

A shameful display of cowardice by the nation's largest law firms. This article should be required reading in every law school ethics class in the country.

If you are a partner at one of these firms, know that the money will never be enough to wash away the stain. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

🚨 Ken Paxton wants Dems arrested for refusing to help rig an election.

That’s rich coming from a guy indicted on three felony counts of securities fraud, accused by his top deputies of bribery, abuse of office, while allegedly using burner phones, secret emails & fake names to dodge accountability.

This is what is happening right now.

Applebaum on Autocracy Anne Applebaum warns that Sudan’s descent into chaos shows what happens when institutions fail—and why a free press is essential to prevent America from following the same path.

Anne Applebaum: "If American media can’t convey how dangerous this behavior is—for our prosperity, for our health, for our democracy—then American media will eventually cease to exist."

Dozens of people gathered in the parking entrance of the Broadview Detention Center Facility.

A woman holds a sign reading “IMMIGRANTS NOW / CITIZENS NEXT” but “NEXT” is crossed out and edited with red marker to say “Also Now!”

At least 70 people have already showed up to protest against ICE at the Broadview Detention Facility.

This is what showing up for your community looks like. Stand for your neighbors. Abolish ICE.

Ken Paxton is great because he's never not testing the limits of human reasoning. He's a pioneer in stupidity. He's like an astronaut for the completely spaced program. You've never seen someone more dedicated to being openly moronic without a shred of charm to show for it.

My profound thanks to Rev. Stephen A. Green and the Greater Allen AME for the honor of addressing their beautiful congregation in Jamaica, Queens this morning.
