Trump's parade could have been an email

Things get chopped up in coverage and context gets lost. What’s happening is an authoritarian regime with existing and increasingly radicalized agencies and law enforcement are brutalizing and disappearing people while the cultists who support them are carrying out asymmetric violence and murders.

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

Born in 1975, I represent the one generation of women who had rights. I’m fighting for my daughters and granddaughters. Fuck this shit.

Stop giving me straws I'm not a toddler. We were concerned about polluting the ocean with plastic straws for like a week. Now they're back to tossing straws at me like confetti.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Gavin Newsome is exactly the kind of cocksucker Democrats need but don't want to admit it. Stop fucking cancelling everybody over podcasts and whatnot. We need tough bastards.

Cleveland historian Tom Kaschalk’s new book, Cleveland’s Neighborhood Taverns: A Pub Crawl Through History, drops today! We shared a drink at Moe’s Tavern—one of the spots featured. Meticulously researched & full of hometown love, it’s a must-read. www.amazon.com/Clevelands-N...

Little secret. It doesn't matter if protestors remain nonviolent or not. Fascists don't care. They will just say you were violent either way to "justify" what they were already going to do anyway. All of this was explicitly spelled out in #Project2025. And now, here we are.

It's hard to overstate how destructive the reflexive "this is a distraction!" stuff that politicians and commentators and people are always peddling. Everything is happening all at once. That's how authoritarianism works. If you can't navigate and synthesize this, you're not meeting the moment.

Awkward way for Joni Ernst to find out she isn’t funny. Let’s stop sending people like Joni Ernst and Lindsey Graham to the Senate.

Watching Knicks/pacers series 30 years later with Reggie Miller calling the game is excellent. And I'm not a big NBA guy.
