"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

Cory Booker is a bit moderate for my tastes, but he's speaking truth and I support that all day!

I'm sure Fox and Newsmax will be all over this one. He wanted to assassinate him to start a race war. Totally chill and normal domestic terrorist.

A vivid encapsulation of his deep insecurity. Plus it's oversized, gaudy and looks cheap as hell.

Years ago, one of my professors cut off a fellow student who was waxing poetic about people being "of" their time with respect to chattel slavery. He said: 'do you know who knew that enslavement was evil and morally disgusting? ENSLAVED AFRICANS.' Were they not of their time too? At 18, that stuck.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

During the election, I felt crazy telling people what was coming. 0% shock that disappearing people means less to most than the stock market.

This admin is turning on the firehose hoping you’ll burn out and give up. But you don’t have to do it all. Do one thing, take one step each day. Put your phone down. Take a walk. Find the thing that moves you and focus. If we all find our one thing, we’ll build something better—together.
