I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Here’s what I need from Democrats; get in the fucking way. Stand in front of those who will hurt others. We can say “constitutional crisis” all day long, but you have to get in front of them. Refuse to budge. Don’t back down.

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

60 MINUTES: “Utter nonsense. The most accountable aid agency in the world is USAID… DOGE fired their top 58 officials within an hour of arriving…” This was never about efficiency. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGLXa9r...

This is extraordinarily dangerous. Tomorrow, the legacy media will ask Republican officials about this. Those officials will lie and obfuscate. And the legacy media will move on. That is part of the crisis we face.

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.

The Massachusetts federal district court (where a bunch of suits challenging Trump policies are being filed) just changed its local rules to bar judge-shopping in Worcester or Springfield in suits seeking nationwide relief: www.mad.uscourts.gov/general/pdf/... This is how you do it, N.D. Tex.

I’m shocked, SHOCKED to find right-wing commentators all of a sudden discovering their deep-seated opposition to the combination of forum-shopping and nationwide injunctions. It’s almost like folks who have been writing about this previously were genuinely concerned about the systemic effects…

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private email server or Elon Musk giving full access to all government information to a nineteen-year old named Big Balls with ties to a child pornography collective known for its extortion techniques, both sides have played loose with security.

AOC: The House is governed by a Republican majority. The Senate is governed by a Republican majority, and The White House has a Republican president. And if they want to pass their agenda, Republicans need to conjure up the votes to pass their own bills.

The most definitive paper yet on false confessions has just been published. It's written by some of the world's leading experts on the phenomenon, including Dr. Saul Kassin. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to deep dive on this issue. psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

When we generalize about any group of people , we shut out the people who are on the fence. Trump is going to convince a lot of MAGA to stop supporting him. I'm ok being told I have TDS if the end result is that we convince the 1.5m more people that voted for him, to no longer consider him.
