It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

Happy for the individuals but the whole, "you get a Secret Service badge," "you get to go to West Point" vibe is cringe. He's supposed to be a president, not a carnival barker.

The GOP could stop this madness at any moment by impeaching and removing Trump, but they won't because they approve of everything that he's doing.

Don’t know if he did, but I can tell you that the answer to the questions “was it possible for him to” and “did he” is the same.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

A fact is objective information. An opinion is a personal belief. Ignorance is a lack of facts. And stupidity is a rejection of facts in favor of opinions.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

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.

What the Ds need most of all are people who are willing to be assholes. Our bench may not be deep on A types, but they do exist. What doesn’t exist is an entity capable of centralizing them around one strategy. That’s what I want to build. hitemwhereithurts.com

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Today we remember Alexei Navalnay, leader of the Russian opposition, who was found dead in his prison cell in Siberia one year ago today. I stand in solidarity with his widow Yulia Navalnay, the first lady of Russian opposition.
