The Trump regime is increasingly unpopular, underwater with the majority, and incompetent. They know they're struggling with Trump's failed trade wars, the economy, health care, and on and on. This is a weak, arrogant, lawless regime that is desperate and will get more fascist and violent.

I am sounding the alarm as loudly as I can that Donald Trump has turned the Department of Justice into a cog in his authoritarian machine to prosecute his political opponents.

I miss the days when the term "sycophant" was merely a word on the SATs, and not every member of the United States cabinet.

That Big Ugly Bill intends to strip our courts of the power to enforce their orders. No patriot is in favor of that. It is clearly an authoritarian power-grab.

Senator Alex Padilla of California was removed by force from Kristi Noem’s presser and handcuffed for his free speech. This is what a fascist regime does that rejects the laws of the US. It should horrify every American. Let’s stop pretending we are approaching authoritarian rule. We are there.

In 2020, when I told people that I was building a pro-democracy media outlet, people thought I was kidding. When I told them it was because the fight for democracy was the fight of our time, they thought I was being overly dramatic. Well...here we are. Please subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

New analysis shows that loose gun laws contributed to more kids dying from gun violence. It's sickening. It’s time for Congress to pass common-sense gun laws that protect every kid in America from gun violence.

Health insurance companies have lost the trust of the American people, and for good reason. They can begin to restore it by ensuring that access to vaccines remains covered and ignoring the quackery and utter nonsense likely to come from Kennedy’s new vaccine committee.

When private equity owns your doctor, you pay MORE for WORSE care. Their priority is profit. Governor Kotek just signed into law the strongest protections against corporate profiteering in health care. Congress should follow and get private equity out of health care nationwide.

The head of Social Security has said he’s “fundamentally a DOGE person.” The DOGE that fired thousands of workers, threatened to shut down offices, and is now rifling through Americans’ personal data? Elon Musk may be out of the picture, but DOGE is still creating chaos.

Republicans BURIED a line in their "big beautiful bill" that would help Trump officials ignore court orders. One problem? It violates the Senate's rules. I’m going to fight to strip this provision out. And we need everyone in the fight against this bill.

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone. If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

The correct way to connect the authoritarian presence in LA and the Big Beautiful Bill is that the bill gives the government the resources to do this in dozens of cities at once. So if you don't like what's happening in LA, it's coming to your town if the bill passes.

Weird how Republicans say they’re worried about Big Tech and government overreach...until it’s Elon Musk. We tried to subpoena him over privacy concerns and data abuse. They blocked us. They’re not doing oversight—they’re doing cover-ups.

The Big Fucked Up Bill, is NOT a spending bill. It’s a government restructuring bill, that consolidates power in the executive, defunds critical services to the point of absurdity, removes the power of our courts to enforce the law and dramatically curtails voting rights. It’s Project 2025

Donald Trump sued me for racketeering, I won and did not back down. Donald Trump tried to have me investigated, I did not back down. Donald Trump named me in executive orders, I did not back down. If your lawyers are so afraid that they are cutting deals with Trump, you have the wrong lawyers.
