In 2026, we can’t take the easy path by giving in to despair. We have to keep doing something to be ready for the moment the right combination of events align and we can see a better future.

We have a pawpaw tree in our yard in Maryland! We had an exceedingly good harvest this year.

We went from taking out terrorists to terrorizing hotel staff. What a downgrade.

Are we great yet?

On Saturday October 18th, I’m asking you to attend the No King’s March in your local communities. We have witnessed the increasing authoritarianism and its policies in our country. We dissent.

The only policy he has is to threaten those who disagree with him.

Does he plan to throw some more paper towels at the people there?

Wrong! Racial profiling is never acceptable.

Thank you for all you do, and mostly for giving me a glimmer of hope that our future will be better.

If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one.

The most inspiring chapters in our nation's history came when Americans faced down some of our country's darkest demons.

Those moments, like our own, were difficult to live through but also brought the chance to bring out the best in us, with enduring consequences.

Did Republicans Just Make the Trump Administration Immune from Court Rulings? If the "No Contempt Clause" becomes law, it’ll cause chaos for our courts and country

Trump is a lawless menace trying to disregard the Constitution and grab king-like power, and House Republicans’ β€œNo Contempt Clause” is a serious escalation requiring a strong and immediate response.

But it is NOT a permanent end to judiciary checks and balances.

And yes, we can still stop it.

Thank you for explaining this. That was my biggest question recently.

It’s about to get more challenging.
So stop doomscrolling and start strategizing. There’s work that we must do to deal with the next 100 days. My thoughts.

In recent Congressional hearings deranged chaos agent RFK Jr said that people shouldn’t take medical advice from him.

No shit, no one should unless they have a death wish.

Who could've guessed joining a make-believe Resistance against an Evil Empire would ever happen in real life?

Call it what it is: a purge of Black people and women in leadership and a full-throated effort to re-segregate the federal government.
