The federal government is attempting a radical, massive expansion of what constitutes "wiretapping" that threatens everyone working in media/as a journalist today and I hope you'll read this and share it with everyone you know. I'm not just fighting this for me. I'm fighting it for everyone.

No, I didn't challenge Jan Schakowsky because of age. I jumped into this race because I don't think Democrats are fighting hard enough and I know that I can. Thank you to @prospect.org for talking to me about the far-right and how we can actually fight back: prospect.org/politics/202...

"Almost as cruel, but more polite about it" should not be the strategy the Democratic party strives for. "our leaders need to be louder, angrier, and more difficult, instead of being stuck in old rules and norms of politeness." - @katmabu.bsky.social prospect.org/politics/202...

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who is glad to see, in a Congress full of Republicans cowering in fear at the idea of trump's retaliation, Senators like Chris Van Hollen can still say FUCK YOU and stand up for the rule of law and due process. Well done, Senator.👏

Police are investigating a report of fake ICE agents targeting a Ukrainian grocery store. An SUV with an “ICE” decal circled Sunday—then bolted when security showed up. These impostors are appearing nationwide,, preying on people already living in fear— in the shadows. It’s calculated and cruel.
