Steve Kerr: "I believe in academic freedom. I think it's crucial for all of our institutions to be able to handle their own business the way they want to. And they should not be shaken down and told what to teach, what to say, by our government. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard."

"The catch is that in order to get attention, you have to be terrible. You have to lie or embrace evil. In the attention economy there is enormous demand for civic blasphemy. What’s hard is getting attention for messages about truth, or virtue, or love."

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

With everything going on, I know it’s hard to stay focused on any one example of this administration’s reckless incompetence. Read my take in the WSJ on why Signalgate is still worth paying attention to and why it's tremendously damaging for our nation. www.wsj.com/opinion/the-...

If Trump & Musk have suffered an unprecedented number of judicial injunctions, it is because they have committed an unprecedented number of illegal actions. We don’t have rogue district judges, we have a rogue president violating the Constitution & breaking the law every day. Watch my statement:

Cory Booker held the Senate floor with a marathon speech lasting all of Monday night & into Tuesday afternoon in a remarkable feat of endurance to show Democrats’ objections to Trump’s agenda. Booker said he'd remain there as long as he was “physically able.” Over 21 hours later, he's still going.

Cory Booker has just crossed the 19 hour line. Five hours and 13 minutes more and he will break Strom Thurmond's record for the longest speech in the history of the U.S. Senate. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/inside-...

I think this makes @booker.senate.gov the Josh Hart of the Senate. Still, I'm worried he'll be burned out before the playoffs. Thibs should trust his bench more.

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

There are many Democrats who don’t agree with some or many of AOC’s policy ideas. But what she gets and more conventional Democrats do not is that political fight can be catalyzing and transformative. You can change the shape of the playing board in ways … www.cnn.com/2025/03/13/p...

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.
