Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Very much like the Iraq War, somehow "I thought Elon Musk was a genius until a couple years ago" is now considered the more respectable and serious opinion than "I knew he was a fraud for a decade and was never fooled by him."

Sen. Padilla and I will be supporting Governor Newsom’s request for federal aid to recover and rebuild from the Eaton and Palisades fires. To deny it – or place conditions on it – would be to abandon people in their time of most need. People need help. We must act urgently.

Why do people like using on-screen keyboards? They're so awkward and error prone. Or am I wrong and most people actually hate using the screen keyboards on their phones and iPads/notebooks?

When the writing is flowing, it's honestly a joy. The hard part will be when I reach the end, and have to submit my work to critics and editing and the reality that even if I put my best into it, it might be that no agent will want to represent it.

The Senate just voted on a simple idea: If you make $1 BILLION in a year, you don't deserve a tax handout. Democrats voted yes. Republicans voted no. Republicans are planning huge tax cuts for the rich, but they’re not the ones who need a break — working people do.

This is what we need to be seeing more of: people pressuring and shaming Congressional Republicans for supporting Trump and Musk.

If you're still yelling at Dems when your daddy and mom voted R or your brother thinks Joe Rogan is legit and your sister's screaming about genocide then you're part of the problem. And I'm not saying that to be mean. We need people to think.

Those screaming that "Democrats should be doing [insert] more to amplify their message": Has the media ecosystem that caused huge swaths of disinterested voters to vote for Trump changed? Is there a reason to think it won't fall on deaf ears this time?

Daily reminder that Republicans in Congress are not part of the Borg - they are individuals making specific choices. They should be pressured ceaselessly into making choices that benefit Americans, not Trump and Musk.

Please watch @maddow.msnbc.com ‘s opening tonight. It was brilliant & righteous. But it was also shrewd. She showed Pritzker’s speech & Hochul’s presser [Dems fighting back]. Then she read Indivisible focusing on Dems. But then explicitly showed Reps have power to reel in Trump. And they’re not /1

If I had a band or a label, I would do a punk cover of "No More Kings" from Schoolhouse Rock. And then I would gather a bunch of people to write a whole album of next-generation Schoolhouse Rock songs, with songs about Social Security and Medicaid and NOAA. I am not kidding in the least.

This is the answer whenever people complain that Kamala Harris's "mistake" was that she didn't have the right policies or say the right words. The voters who decided this election knew hardly anything about her, what she said, or what she believed, & had no interest in finding out

Crockett on Trump's relatively high approval: We've gotta do better at education. People don't understand. But you will understand when your Medicaid goes away. You will understand when planes continue to fall out of the sky... maybe Sleepy Joe is what we wanted, bc we could at least sleep at night.

I really don't understand why pundits don't understand this. MANY of you have better platforms than any Democrat this side of AOC. If you spend all your time whining (some more) about Democrats, then you are being just as feckless, you are giving the GOP just as much of a pass, as the Dems are.

Judge Chutkan won't issue a sweeping TRO against Elon Musk & DOGE—but fires this shot across the bow: "Plaintiffs legitimately call into question what appears to be the unchecked authority of an unelected individual and an entity that was not created by Congress and over which it has no oversight."

I applaud Democrats who are strong and willing to put a target on their backs like AOC. However, it shouldn't ONLY be Democrats who bear this responsibility. Republicans have agency, and "serious people" should also be putting pressure on them.
