This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

This is genuinely an important article. The two main lessons from Hungary appear to be: DO NOT WAIT DO NOT UNDERREACT Authoritarians like Orban and Trump rely on opposition being unwilling to believe that what is happening is actually happening. That’s their window. www.vox.com/politics/398...

I wrote about some bills introduced this session to improve passenger rail service in Oregon. That mostly means more Amtrak Cascades service, but the sponsors are also thinking about the former Pioneer route in eastern Oregon and possible connections for Willamette Valley and Central Oregon cities.

There are a million things to be outraged about right now (this is by design). My number one is, trans people don’t have the numbers to defend themselves from all the ways these people are trying to strip them of their humanity. Feels like a “first they came for (x) and I did not speak out” moment

We need to shift our messaging from "Democrats SHOULD talk about..." to just SAYING IT ourselves (I'm guilty too). Don't lament the asymmetry in the media; we already know the media would destroy Biden if he blamed a plane crash on some amorphous framework like DEI. Instead, start making the case:

@reverendwarnock.bsky.social: "That [Trump] would use this moment - when bodies are still literally on the bottom of the Potomac and families are being notified - to advance his agenda of attacking DEI and Democrats speaks volumes. Not only is it shameful, quite frankly it's dangerous."

The plan was to understaff everything, at least until you could staff it all with Project 2025 or Twitter Blue Nazis. Almost shocked at how quickly the danger of that showed up.

This really sucks, but what sucks more is Dems had several opportunities to codify this and yet did nothing.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Republicans are so accustomed to whining from the minority that when they’re actually in the majority and still can’t manage to pass a bill, their automatic reflex is to blame the Democrats. Republicans wanted the majority. They got it. Learn how to fucking govern.
