Free Mahmoud Khalil. It's important to protect speech, even, perhaps especially, when we don't agree what's being said. If we don't support other people's First Amendment rights, then who will protect ours? We have to all be in this together.

Elon Musk owns a 12% stake in Tesla. Thanks to nationwide protests and international boycotts, Tesla stocks have plummeted in recent weeks, reducing his net worth by over $100 billion. We can do better.

Our big blubbery babyman leader has had a week full of retreats, losses and surrenders and is now far weaker than he appears. The bottom line - this Trump 2.0 thing just isn’t working for him or America. My latest, 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/trump-has-...

In a new video presentation and post I argue that Ds need to open up a "second front" that talks to the American people about the crimes Trump-Musk are committing, their trampling of the Constitution and their ongoing betrayal of the country. Find it 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/trump-musk...

They don’t care about seniors getting flu & die. They don’t care about children, they don’t care about women, they don’t care about working class or the poor. The most self-serving and exploitative administration in history.

Army Choir surrounded the MAGA hierarchy dining in White House East Room to sing "Do You Hear The People Sing" It was lost on Trump but Vance was super fidgety "Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men? It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again" #DisruptTheCoup

“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." As the foundation of #democracy in America crumbles and the vulnerable are under attack from a rogue administration, we, the people, are asking our former presidents to "Say something!”

Yes, making Trump unimportant means making America unimportant to the world. A hefty price but it must be paid to stop the spread of our cancer.

A judge just blocked Elon Musk and co-president Donald Trump from firing the financial cops at the CFPB who protect consumers from Wall Street scams. There's power in fighting back.

Seriously, how hard would it be for the Senate and House Ds to have a morning joint press conference, 7 days a week, contesting Trump's assault on the US right now? Could be a different Senator and House Member each day. We are in a national emergency right now. Our leaders need to act that way.

So, they are - illegally dismantling US govt, disabling Congress - burning our alliances, turning US into global pariah - reigniting inflation, exploding the deficit, unraveling US public health system - putting backdoors into Treasury This feels more like an attack on the US than a new government.

This is like a bank robber getting to fire the cops and disable the alarms just before he strolls into the bank lobby.

It’s no secret that Chair Powell and I disagree on a lot, but today we agreed: without the CFPB, there is no federal regulator making sure giants banks don't cheat you.

Some of you have inquired over on my Substack where you can find a list of all (organized in useful, searchable ways) the litigation over the Administration’s executive orders and other actions, since January 20,2025. A great tracker is at Just Security.

If you think public attention to an issue and outcry doesn't matter, note that the Trump administration hasn't defied a court order (yet). Let's keep it up!
