As we begin January, it is our turn to use this period productively. Hoping that Trump fails is not a plan. We must develop and foster new movements, structures, tactics, platforms and leaders to oppose Trump and articulate a positive vision. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...

Discussing blanket pardons draws us off of the real issue, the concern that Trump will pervert the criminal justice system & use DOJ as a political tool, which is forcing the Biden administration into these considerations. Don't forget why we're here.

When we have this gobshite written by hucksters & conspiracy theorists in bookstores it sends a warning to the sane that insanity can win. And it’s exactly what MAGA does through platforms like X— spread propaganda. They accuse those of that which they are guilty of and paint it in religious terms.

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post

Glad Hunter has been pardoned After DOJ failed legally because of Trumps delays it is clear justice is not equally applied to ordinary citizens and all the connected get breaks 🤷‍♀️🤪🤷‍♀️

One year ago, Kash Patel, while sniffling repeatedly as he does in every interview (he just can’t shake that cold) promised to prosecute Hunter for new crimes. Then Trump names him FBI Director. He told you ahead of time he’s going after Hunter. So tired of the pearl clutchers.

90% of #Ukraine aid spending stays in the U.S. Funds stay in the U.S., where companies have invested billions in over 100 new industrial manufacturing facilities, creating thousands of jobs across at least 38 states directly, with vital subcomponents sourced from all 50 states. 🧵

Hard to believe that we could end up with a FBI director—who heads an agency that's supposed to target violent crime—who has embraced & encouraged the bonkers QAnon movement, which has sparked multiple acts of violence. But that's life in Trump Bizarro Land. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump pardoned Jared Kushner's dad while Jared worked in the White House, then yesterday appointed Jared's dad as an ambassador, but Polis didn't have the same energy for that. Pathetic stuff that I for one won't soon forget.

Democrats make a mistake by fixating just on Joe Rogan. It is about a mentality that going on a Sunday show with 50,000 viewers is more important than talking to a YouTube influencer with 3 million.
