If I didn’t have to maintain my legal practice and get our guys through college, I’d apply in a heartbeat.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

Developing now: Judge Dugan has since been released. We are calling for a rapid community response: Join Voces de La Frontera at 3 pm at the Federal Building (517 E Wisconsin) to say NO to the charges against Judge Dugan.

No country in the world will take the US seriously as long as a completely ignorant liar is president.

Pope Francis was extraordinary, a leader who showed us love and light in a world full of darkness. He was a true advocate for the powerless and the marginalized. He never hesitated to speak out on injustice and didn’t mince words when others would.

A very old Soviet joke, from an especially dark time: Foxes are fleeing the USSR in droves. Q: Why are you running away? Fox: The Soviets passed a new law that they’re going to arrest all camels. Q: But you’re foxes! Fox: Yeah, why don’t you try proving to the NKVD that you’re not a camel.

Younger son has put in the work. Ran 1:58 in the 800m, taking 3rd and earning All-County. His teammates were 1st and 2nd, so they swept the event! (His teammate who won broke a longstanding county record with a 1:54.) So proud of him! 👏

I feel this so very much and also simultaneously feel like one way we're going to get through all of this is to have artists and writers and musicians chucking in to create space for others to experience joy and rest for a moment before going out to fight again in the world. Creation is resistance.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

I cannot overstate how despicable the Mahmoud Khalil case is The Government concedes he hasn’t broken any laws But they assert he can be deported for his past, current or even EXPECTED beliefs All based on the sole determination of Marco Rubio Who is apparently now the head of the Thought Police

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune. It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

This seems like a big story: A federal judge, who was appointed by Trump, has ruled that he cannot ban AP from press briefings because they refuse to kowtow to him on the Gulf of Mexico name 👏👏

Don’t know if UConn was that great or the other teams were underpowered this season, but that was ridiculous dominance in the Final Four. Glad Bueckers got her ring. Strong looks even more like a future monster.

Yes, because what's holding the US back from greatness is our lack of "wood independence". 🙄 Logging these >100 year old trees will be disastrous for climate.

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

Remember: The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

The abuser’s classic playbook is to isolate you from your friends, create a sense of helplessness, make it difficult to connect with others and force you to simply think about your survival from one day to the next. We are seeing that playbook applied to the nation as a whole.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent. Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list. This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts. It's straight out of the fascist playbook.
