TO: <ALL STAFF> Please respond to this email confirming that I am cool and funny. Failure to do so will be taken as confirmation of the same.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

It's pretty cool that Eater put together resources for restaurants about how to handle ICE raids

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

This seems like a good plan.

Leadership & elected Dems need to read this. The GOP wins elections because they win in the court of public opinion. Usually through misinformation & disinformation. Our message is better, but our messaging is—with some rare exceptions—pretty terrible.

Elon Musk can bank on Brad Schimel to support big corporations, ban abortion with no exceptions, and take our state backwards. Hear from Judge Crawford:

The "mandate" for higher overdraft fees.

Jason C. Lynch probably did not wake up that morning expecting anything like this to happen to him.

The court instructed Hampton Dellinger to respond by Wednesday afternoon at 2 p.m. It did not act on the Trump administration’s request for an immediate administrative stay.

During the first Trump administration, we saw what appeared to be a concerted effort by Stephen Miller — the architect of some of the first Trump administration’s most extreme anti-immigration measures — to avoid creating a paper trail.

Am I the only one who thinks Musk's main goal in all of this is to become the world's first trillionaire?
