Trump is refusing to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US despite a Supreme Court ruling ordering him to do so. This is a constitutional crisis. How can it not meet the threshold for articles of impeachment?

I explained it to several young teens today: imagine we wanted you to become more self-sufficient in the kitchen, so we decided to charge you $20 every time you got takeout. But also we have no food in the house, we won't let you go to the store, and also you don't know how to cook.

The purpose of these tariffs is to be able to lift them to those who bow down to him and sacrifice their dignity. That is what he did to the GOP, the billionaires, and is doing now to Big Law. Those who stand up will be punished, those who bend a knee and humiliate themselves will be rewarded.

This. The speech mattered as a rallying point. How do you join people in shared cause? You model it. You project it. You shout the sincerity of it. You inspire. You rally people to pay attention...and respond. You create a "we."

It's not just that "every accusation is a confession"; it's also that every accusation is a RATIONALIZATION. The lie that the other side is rigging elections rationalizes vote suppression. The lie that legitimate investigations are "weaponizing government" is the excuse to weaponize government.

The Signal leak is a prime moment for Democrats to get caught trying. Call for resignations or impeachment hearings or both. Be omnipresent in the media demanding and explaining accountability measures. Don’t let this fade away. Treat this the way the GOP treated Hillary’s emails. Make it a thing.

Correct. Science is a long-term endeavor. It requires building talent and groups over time. And giving them space to think about hard questions and find answers. The current chaos caused by Trump and Musk is setting America back by years.

I know this is going to sound naive or earnest, but I genuinely find myself shocked by how little people seem to be upset by the levels of corruption we're seeing. Is that the median voter assumes everyone is corrupt already? Or isn't actually getting stories about the corruption?

Since they vilify government all day every day, here’s a reminder of “50 ways government works for us”👇🏽🇺🇸 Government is not the enemy. It’s not about “Big Government”, it’s about good government. Elect people who believe in it, not the ones who seek to destroy it.
