Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Remember sitting in history, thinking “If I was alive then, I would’ve…” You’re alive now. Whatever you’re doing is what you would’ve done.

this is it. this is the message

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

When you read about the slide from democracy to "competitive authoritarianism" in other countries, it's composed of things like this. No big, sudden breaches, the kind that might spark widespread resistance. Just crossing these little lines, one at a time, each one a seemingly small thing ...

I have to get my shit together, get out of the помиральна яма somehow

Allies must continue to rise. Immigrant communities are being terrorized & their rights violated. It’s time for unity at all fronts. This country is not white. It's not Christian. It's American. It's made up of people from around the globe. Humans aren't illegal.

Went on a beautiful morning walk with friends around MaximaPark here in Utrecht.

Don’t I know it, so hard but it is also amazing. Learning new cultures and languages opens your mind like nothing else.

Tanks in DC Troops in LA. A military parade on his birthday. Trump is done pretending. This is what authoritarianism looks like in America. My latest on why we must speak out now — before silence becomes complicity. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/authoritar...

“There’s a right side to history and a wrong side to history.” How do you tell which side you’re on? Simple.

Like it or not, Gavin Newsom is currently the face of the Democratic Party as a result of Trump’s actions in California. Yes, I have my criticisms of Newsom. But on this front he is meeting the moment, and I encourage everyone to watch the entirety of his speech. www.youtube.com/live/0n77NFj...

Very good speech however it made me think about the beginnings of very dystopian movies. I am inspired for a better outcome. Resist this week but PEACEFULLY!

Action dissolves Anxiety… I keep on saying it.

Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

This story leaves me feeling both sad and heart-warmed. THIS: “She decided to do this in her own terms. She has no criminal record. A hardworking taxpayer who’s been working 12-hour shifts since she was 15, six days out of the week. She never asked for a handout. She didn’t get food stamps…”

Slowly catching up - here's the latest missive of 'Happy Days – Week TwentyNine'. Enjoy photos and snippets of life from the Netherlands.

Seeing the "No Kings" June 14th protests in Europe gives me faith in humanity. The map of North America is just a sea of blue dots - stand up to Tyranny!

I’m old enough to remember he resisted sending troops for this

Shower time!

Thinking of Greta Thunberg (and co) and those being attacked by ICE in LA. Lot of horrible stuff going on right now but also A LOT of people standing up for what's right.

This is a frightening time, and the embers of righteous anger are red hot. 💔 But nonviolent resistance is THE way through. History proves nonviolent methods yield better long-term outcomes. And friends, PLEASE take care when posting. Violent threats live forever. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

LAPD STATEMENT: “The protests remained peaceful… without incident…”

This.

Terry Moran, with one of the most honest posts about 'Trump's Goebbels,' Stephen Miller, you will ever read by a journalist. For no other reason than fear of retribution by the fascist authoritarian Trump regime, Moran was suspended by ABC News for his post. 😳👇

WIRED has a great guide to protecting yourself during protest www.wired.com/story/how-to...

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

This amazing post by ABC News senior national correspondent Terry Moran is 💯 spot on! Thank you for speaking the truth, Terry!!!

My current reading. I ordered a copy after meeting your mum in Bristol when I hosted the event with Walter on Suddenly Something Clicked. Enjoying it a lot.
