The Democratic Party Establishment Should Follow Zohran Mamdani’s Example Once they get over the shock, the idea-starved Democrats at the national level should learn from Zohran Mamdani: actually give citizens something to vote for.

Home appliances swept up in expansion of Trump steel tariffs A range of imported household appliances including dishwashers, washing machines, refrigerators and more will be subject to President Donald Trump's expanded steel tariffs starting later this month, according to a notice posted on Thursday.

I guess one way to protect Americans from the scourge of electric stoves is to ensure they can't afford any kind of stove. www.reuters.com/world/us/hom...

The 4-Year Grudge Behind Trump’s Invasion of California The president’s response to the protests in Los Angeles is a naked attempt to settle a score going back to January 6, 2021.

How the White House’s War on the Job Corps Is Hurting Trump Country An abrupt Labor Department order to shutter 99 Job Corps campuses across the country is devastating for at-risk trainees and local economies.

Word is Attorney General Pam Bondi is seeking records and testimony from journalists. Please be mindful of how you communicate use secure formats, follow established guidance, and above all, protect your identity at all costs.

HAPPENING NOW: Judge Boasberg is pressing DOJ about Trump's comment that he could pick up the phone and have El Salvador send back Abrego Garcia. Doesn't that mean U.S. effectively has custody over deported migrants, he's asking?

I can't believe this. While Trump takes in crypto bribes, a senate GOP crypto bill is moving with some Dem support. First vote is tomorrow!

This is flying under the radar because crypto regulation is boring. Without Dems votes, this dies. Tell your Dem senator: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

It’s weird to live in a time when basic principles like cruelty is wrong, cheating is empty & the idea that curiosity, generosity, originality, the satisfaction of earned accomplishments & loving intimacy are the center of a good life feel like countercultural concepts

Since cis het men who are natural born US citizens commit the most crimes, I think they should have markers on their IDs, restricted state to state travel, higher insurance and tax rates, separate restrooms, and state sanctioned vasectomies at 14 because they cause 100% of unwanted pregnancies.

Dear Canada 🇨🇦 we love you and are proud to have you as our ally to the north. Stay exactly as you are. Trump’s nonsense about merging with the USA is absurd and doesn’t speak for us.

Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…

just so we’re all clear: the reason they keep using dolls as their example is because they’re trying to frame caring about material stuff as feminine and thus inherently shameful

Broken Record: You *cannot sustain* a functioning constitutional order if the general population is blasé about open violation of the Constitution. If voters don't care, your job is to make them care. This is not optional. If you don't, you lose even if you pick up seats in the next election.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

Your School House Rock moment......

This story just gets worse and worse

I don’t care what immigration policy you favor masked federal officers is a way to instill terror and not just among the undocumented

🔥 BREAKING: Bristol Myers Squibb shareholders voted today to reject two anti-DEI proposals. One of the proposals called on BMS to "Cease DEI Efforts," and was rejected by shareholder vote 97-2 percent (1% abstained).

BMS Board supports "our culture of inclusion" and "all decisions are merit-based."

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

El Faro English @elfaroenglish 🚨“We have received reliable information that the Salvadoran Attorney General’s Office is preparing arrest warrants for El Faro journalists,” announces El Faro director @CarlosDada Quote El Faro @_elfaro_ May 3 “Hemos recibido información confiable de que la Fiscalía General está preparando órdenes de captura contra periodistas de El Faro”, informó hoy @CarlosDada, director de El Faro. 🧵 Mira esta conversación:

El Faro English @elfaroenglish · May 4 El Faro just published a three-part video interview with two former leaders of the 18th Street Revolucionarios gang, shedding new light on Bukele’s years-long relationship to, and negotiations with, Salvadoran gangs. From elfaro.net El Faro English @elfaroenglish May 4 “We understand that the alleged crimes for which these warrants are being built are apology for crimes and illicit association. Any capture or raid on our homes will be for having done journalism,” states editor-in-chief @CronistaOscar Quote El Faro @_elfaro_ May 3 Replying to @_elfaro_ “Comprendemos que los delitos por los que construyen estas órdenes es por apología de delitos y agrupaciones ilícitas. Cualquier captura o allanamiento a nuestras casas va a ser por haber hecho periodismo”, señaló @CronistaOscar, jefe de redacción de El Faro.

El Salvador's President Bukele is reportedly preparing to arrest the journalists who have reported on the secret deals Bukele struck with Salvadoran gangs that have enabled his consolidation of power.

Foreign films are a national security threat? We’re shaking our heads. We’d laugh if this wasn’t such dangerous, authoritarian rhetoric. What other countries do this? Russia and China.

This is about all of us. Never forget that.

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.
