Do you know how badly you have to screw up as a Republican to get this kind of turnout in IDAHO? #NOKINGS

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

This whole interview by @governor.ca.gov w @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social is the way you would *hope* your governor would sound, in response to historic, lawless over-reach. But if short on time, hear the final minute. Starts at time 13:40. A msg directly to Donald Trump www.msnbc.com/msnbc/watch/...

Still trying to figure out what yesterday's tariff news means for you and your life? I sat down with @HannaRosin for an emergency recording of The Atlantic's "Radio Atlantic" podcast. Listen in, and let me know what questions you still want answered. open.spotify.com/episode/4Bks...

A week ago I visited the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, which everyone who can should, and which got me thinking again about the essential work of the Freedom Riders. Some music here arising from that history: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfCN...

According to @chenoweth.bsky.social’s work, regimes change or collapse when 3.5% of the population takes to the streets. Yesterday was just shy of 1%. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

I'm a hard NO on the Republican spending bill. On cloture. On all of it. When a wannabe dictator is trying to seize power, it must not be given to him. Not without a fight. open.substack.com/pub/schiffno...

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

An interesting and worthy idea that I read on Reddit www.reddit.com/r/fednews/co...

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
