I've spent the last few days fielding emails about this, and one thing I can tell you: the angriest, most brained-poisoned, most hate-poisoned right wingers you'd ever care to come across really, really, really don't want you to protest on Saturday. So I think we should. #NoKings

Explosive moment during tonight's NYC mayoral debate: Cuomo: "He’s never dealt with the city council, he’s never dealt with the Congress..." Mamdani: "I’ve never had to resign in disgrace...I have never hounded the thirteen women who credibly accused me of sexual harassment."

A key Obama—and Harris—strategist is going to work for a crypto scam (he worked at Uber before). It’s emblematic of how corrupt the Democratic Party is at an institutional level. The path to a more free, more fair, more just country requires a new political system that enables new parties.

Thank you to U.S. Senator Alex Padilla for putting his body on the line to challenge the illegal and immoral actions of the Trump administration.

Possible to start to tell a unified story: "Trump is personally too old, crazy, and confused to run things, so at any given time the question is which co-president is in charge. At first it was Musk, & we got the crazy chaotic DOGE era. Then Navarro: a trade war that crashed markets. Now Miller..."

Okay, if that one’s too tough: Luke or Darth Vader? He-Man or Skeletor? Indiana Jones or Hitler? The Von Trapp family or, also, Hitler? Elphaba or Glinda (that’s a trick one)? Cinderella or the wicked stepsisters? Little Red Riding Hood or the wolf?

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

how this point interacts with the norms of commentary on protests: if it's true that any destruction and disruption will attract a disproportionate amount of attention, then fingerwaggers labeling protests and protestors basedon these scenes are in effect demanding blanket, total discipline

I'd also be interested in reading Cornel West, Gloria Steinem, Arlie Russell Hochschild, David W. Blight, Nell Painter, Dahlia Lithwick, Zephyr Teachout, Randi Weingarten and many others' reflections on having signed the Harper's Letter. What do they think now? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Lette...

No sleep for ICE tonight as activists found their hotel again. Hotel managers have to decide whether that GSA per diem money is worth having their hotel completely surrounded 24/7 by protesters.

In case you're wondering, authoritarians use this strategy of escalation to manufacture crisis, provoke outrage, then use the reaction to justify repression. It’s not about restoring order, it's about creating a spectacle of chaos they can claim only they can control.

A reminder. Folks are showing up across the country. Blocking ICE wherever they are, protecting their neighbors. People will be out Saturday. Can't make it to somewhere big? Show up at a nearby intersection. All it takes is a sign (and maybe some friends for company, and some water).

I really feel for pro athletes who are struggling. And I would never call one out by name. I have no doubt they want to succeed more than any of us want it. But, as a fan watching a terrible outing, sometimes I'm just hoping that it's gonna be enough to get my team to pull the plug.

How many Harper’s Letter signatories, esp from the right, have spoken out against this vs smatterings of violence in LA? My on-going frustration w and refusal to let go of the Harper’s Letter is bc its facile dangerous bothsiderism was obvious from the start, but has imposed ZERO costs on signers.
