The people were angry: It took a wheelbarrow of German marks to buy a dozen eggs. Disillusioned nationalists rallied behind a charismatic wannabe dictator who claimed only he could save them. Stream my hour-long special “Rick Steves’ The Story of Fascism in Europe” at www.ricksteves.com/fascism.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Yes a shutdown would have consequences. And a Republican President, Republican House, and Republican Senate would be responsible. They have acted in a unilateral and unprecedented way. Democrats cannot cave. They must fight back.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

He is so weak. Whatever the approach was going to be, Schumer has totally bungled this chance. He must step down as our Senate leader. What an embarrassment! ☎️☎️ call his office ☎️☎️ www.nytimes.com/2025/03/13/u...

When you hear Trump & his supporters defend the detention of a Green Card holder by pretending to care about 1) antisemitism on campus, and 2) trespassing on college property, remember that Trump 1) hosted a Holocaust denier for dinner & 2) pardoned violent insurrectionists.

Have you heard about this MAGA attack on our voting rights? It would make voter registration harder and keep millions of Americans from voting. We have to call our Senators and Congressional Representatives - tell them to vote 'NO' on the SAVE Act! social.redwine.blue/s/jbFsR6c4

Morgan Stanley is stepping in to support Tesla amid its declining share price, framing the drop in sales as a positive development. This move is part of a broader effort by billionaires to control the narrative in pursuit of tax breaks.

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.
