Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

First the algorithm said to come for the federal employees, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a federal employee. Then the algorithm said to come for Medicaid, and - wait a minute, why would an algorithm not come for the tech subsidies, something's weird here...

"Republican senators had the chance to matter, and they chose not to step up. Instead they are enabling a national tragedy. It’s time for them to be exposed, called out, and defeated." Never too early. @jilldlawrence.bsky.social on the 2026 campaign: www.thebulwark.com/p/start-the-...

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.

A common metric for anticipating how much an incumbent will earn in the popular vote, should they run for re-election, is to use their approval rating. Biden had a 36% approval rating in July of 2024. Harris won 48%. If the Democrats weren't addicted to defeat, they would put their money on her.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

The resistance after 2016 was a success. But we need something bigger and more durable this time. We need an opposition built for the long term. We need to stop being tired and ignore the cynics. I can promise you, my team and I will be in the fight. If we all do our part we will win!

“Positive social change results mostly from connecting more deeply to the people around you than rising above them, from coordinated rather than solo action… Our largest problems won’t be solved by heroes. They’ll be solved, if they are, by movements, coalitions, civil society.”

This precisely: “We have to be going to places where voters are hearing only about Democrats from Republicans. If voters hear about Democrats only from Republicans than Democrats are going to lose.” @benwikler.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2024/12/01/u...

How do we have 800 of these articles and none contend with the fundamental issue which is rich liberals don’t want to fund left media, they want to fund liberal media which is bloodless and partisan, by definition. GOP courts its extremes, liberals discipline theirs. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/28/u...

@jenrubin.bsky.social is right. "For starters, they need to reduce and simplify the values that define the party (e.g., protecting the little guy, letting you choose your own life) and pound away at them for years, using every medium available (podcasts, nonpolitical TV shows, social media, etc.)."

May I suggest: Don’t say “if” we survive, but “when” we survive. Let’s not grant these rapists and pillagers power over us; they’re counting on our doubts and fears to accelerate their ugly plot. They’re counting on resignation and despair.

One of my favorite Jack Handey Deep Thoughts is “If you're a cowboy and you're dragging a guy behind your horse, I bet it would really make you mad if you looked back and the guy was reading a magazine.” I think that’s how conservatives feel about bluesky
