I love all the handwringing about Zohran’s lack of experience when a 19 year-old called Big Balls has recently been made a permanent federal employee with the title Senior Advisor at the GS-15 pay grade in the General Services Administration.

My friend @padilla.senate.gov is exactly right: this isn't about what happened to him — it's about what could happen to anybody in America if we don't call out and stand against Trump's lawlessness and abuses of power. Trump doesn't get to play dictator in a nation of laws.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

I just want 'ai' to go away. The simultaneous widespread poisoning of knowledge; attempt to end-run professions that cultivate critical thinking; and sucking the joy out of everything while ramming unwanted technology down our throats is so exhausting. I just can't anymore.

This IS what a king would do, throw himself a big mighty parade to show his power and then slovenly sleep through it like he's eepy from the herbs his healers gave him for the gout. A king in a bad fantasy novel but hey a king's a king baby

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

does anyone remember the entire first four years of this decade where it was considered a potentially nation-destroying scandal for the federal government to target political opponents, even if they had indisputably committed actual crimes?

You know when things were pretty quiet and peaceful in L.A.? Before ICE started arresting residents who were bothering no one and going to their jobs. And before DHS and National Guard troops showed up and made the situation worse. Of course Trump and Stephen Miller want the situation to get worse.

Hey look at that someone read the statute! Just to put a sharper point in it, this means everything that’s going on with the national guard right now in Cali is illegal as well as horrifically unnecessary and harmful
