Last week, @rhodesben.bsky.social and I did a Munk Debates against Kevin Roberts and Kellyanne Conway on whether Trump is leading America into a new golden age. We won. This is from my closing statement. There’s nothing golden about a movement that bathes in gratuitous cruelty.

Reupping this because it really needs to penetrate the fog

Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.

I didn’t want this to happen. I voted for the smart black lady.

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!! This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference. #50501movement

🦬 In the spirit of this video, I plan on focusing on two things moving forward: 1. Issues affecting federal employees. 2. Issues affecting public lands. There's a lot of scary shit happening in America. It's by design. Time to dig deep, build community, and hold the line more than ever.

To anyone living in a state that doesn't respect you for who you love or who you are: Illinois has a place for you. You are seen, you are celebrated, you are protected, and you are welcome here in our state.

Gobsmacked at the lengths this administration will go to waste our tax dollars. www.msn.com/en-us/public...

This gives me so much hope.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Dem for NJ07 Rebecca Bennett raised more than $125k in the first 24 hours of her campaign, one of the largest – if not the largest – first-day hauls in NJ House campaign history. newjerseyglobe.com/congress/ben...

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state www.wunc.org/news/2025-03...

@tribelaw.bsky.social Ed Martin seems to have been absent that day in Con Law. He has now been given the notes.

"Listen this IS, in fact how it’s done."

I can’t add anything new to what others haven’t already said about the egregious sideshow in the Oval Office, but I’m so glad that the blow back is loud and immediate. Stay loud.
