It's been a crazy week – and Donald Trump is trying to silence journalists who stand up to him. It’s working. Here's the most important thing you missed: youtu.be/4Ch2t4ffc0o?...

Got to say I LOVE the Trump Administration negotiating to get Rare Minerals from Ukraine, for 2 reasons: 1. It reduces our dependence on China for Lithium and Graphite (China provides near 70% of world supply) 2. More than 50% of those minerals are in Russian Annexed land.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Good morning friends! Sending you all a big hug on this Friday morning. Today I will be trying to remember that even small acts of kindness and love matter—and to do a few.

This is a solidly red district in Georgia. Republicans are really starting to feel the pressure — let’s keep turning up the heat. Your representatives are back home for congressional recess and we’ve got events planned around the country (including Tesla dealerships). LFG: indivisible.org/muskorus

A little substance about what the FBI does & historical context to help you articulate just how dangerous the confirmation of Kash Patel is. joycevance.substack.com/p/kash-patel...

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family.   By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

And prosecution. Arrest this creature. Lock him up in Guantanamo. Throw away the key

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

hello world, 15 mins old

Exactly right

The “Fog Bank”: How Trumpsters defy court orders about the Trump funding freeze. (Let’s start by noting these freezes are flatly illegal, not close cases, plain constitutional violations, which is why Trumpsters constantly lose in court.)

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

Trump believes he’s a King. But in reality, he’s just an old, petty criminal, who worships Hitler.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

President Trump calls Zelensky a “dictator,” which we know can’t be true because Trump loves all the dictators. That’s why he appeases and coddles Putin and his filthy imperialist war on the people of Ukraine. History teaches us that we bow down to dictators and tyrants at our own peril.

Resisting comes in all forms. Here is a very creative one starting to pop up.

It is happening now! #resist

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

Father Pence is not having the ‘King’s’ BS.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

As Republicans move a budget resolution tonight, it’s important to understand this: they're working on tax breaks for billionaires while slashing health care, education and public safety and doing nothing about the really big problems most Americans are facing, like the rising costs of housing.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

Trump Administration’s election supported by radical right “Christians” watch with apparent approval as undocumented people are captured, chained and shipped to Panama where they have been locked in hotels on the way to a camp on the fringe of the jungle, as reported by Nicole Wallace.

My response to Donald Trump’s efforts to block the Special Counsel from issuing his final report:

New evidence has emerged from The Insider that Russia did indeed offer bounties to kill US and coalition troops in Afghanistan. A reminder that Trump downplayed and protected Russia in 2020 when the NYT broke the story

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

Trump - with his devotion to Putin, abandonment of Ukraine, and lies about history- is the antithesis of everything Ronald Reagan stood for. He is aligning America with the enemies of the very freedom that generations have fought and died to defend.

above all else the current crop of republicans in congress are the most pathetic cowards to ever serve in washington www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

And fully half of it is a humiliating error where they mistake the value of a contract by 1000x confusing 8 million with 8 BILLION

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.
