Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

History teaches us that the way to stand up to a dictator is to fight back against him, not capitulate to him. Surrendering to tyranny invites more of it. This moment we're in should not be met with a "moderate" response. Luckily, some Democrats starting to understand this.

Trump travels to Florida every weekend. Remember when Barack and Michelle went on a weekend date to NYC and the GOP lost their minds?

There is no "center" between decency and indecency, between democracy and authoritarianism, between a government of billionaires and a government of the people. If Democrats move to "the center", they will pave the way for the next Trump.

The EEOC filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk's company, Tesla, alleging it allowed "severe racial harassment" of Black employees including “frequent direct verbal racial attacks” and the “constant presence of racist graffiti evocative of lynchings.” Every story about these cuts should say that.

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

I know there are a lot of important things going on right now. I know this. But I can't help but be fascinated by the fact that Trump says that "groceries" is an "old-fashioned word." What does he think is the young, hip word for that? And this from a guy who still says "aeroplane."
