Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

Yes Trump is a convicted criminal who incited an insurrection and is tanking the US economy and deported innocent immigrants and quotes Hitler but he was nice to me! So says Bill Maher Glad he's being roasted and humiliated and going out a sucker. Muslims been telling you he's sucked for years.

Just one phone call. That's it. All it takes. But this reflects Trump and Stephen Miller's cruelty and ego. They refuse because they can.

Hello! Yes, I know who Curtis Yarvin is, his relationship to the regime, and what they’re up to. No, I don’t include him in every post. But you can rest assured that I know who he is and that I’ve covered him. Thanks!

It seems like every day we are focusing on what is happening to democracy in court. The best way to stay informed is to subscribe to Democracy Docket. Always fearlessly independent with no corporate overlords. It will not bow down. It will never obey. newsletters.democracydocket.com/all-newslett...

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.
