This is like a bank robber getting to fire the cops and disable the alarms just before he strolls into the bank lobby.

Doubling down on getting called out on his usual unpresidential response. This is a petty little man.

Peters and Slotkin voted for Noem, an election denier. They were two of six Democrats to do so. Michigan, we have a problem.

We can never know the ecstasy of true hope without attending to the tragic realities of the poor and forgotten. - Rev. William J. Barber II, “The Third Reconstruction: Moral Mondays, Fusion Politics, and the Rise of a New Justice Movement” (2016) His model of work may be what we need.

As more and more people wake up to the fact that cable news and mainstream media are now tools of this authoritarian regime, Momcrats have created a list of excellent independent journalists and publications. We will be targeting our #TruthBombs at them. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

WDIV in Detroit opened a segment just now with 1) Biden’s pardons, 2) Trump’s pardons. In that order. THIS is what is wrong with our media.

Don't worry about being effective. Just concentrate on being faithful to the truth. - Dorothy Day

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie." My new Guardian op-ed on the new GOP election lie - and why it's important to rebut it! I brought (lots of) receipts:
