First, I am so, so sorry for your loss. It is heartbreaking, and so hard.

Second, if you’re looking for a distraction, have you seen a little show called Heated Rivalry?

Northern lights over Iceland.

As a news consumer, if I want video I will turn on the tv. At work, on my commute, while I’m watching something else on tv, I want to READ.

My brother’s name is also Jake Paul and it’s days like today when I really feel sorry for him.

Listen, it’s not that surprising that everyone was in a good mood at Dick Cheney’s funeral.

There are a lot of American expats living in London (including me). There were also people there who were on vacation from the U.S. (the couple I met there from NJ). Also the British hate fascists.

They call it No Tyrants in the UK.

They’re going to have to pull a fan out of the stands to pitch by the 5th inning.

Ditto Adam Kinzinger!

Normalize fearless American leaders stepping up and calling out trump's dementia out loud, and demanding that the 25th Amendment be invoked.

He was white. He was Christian. He was from a conservative law enforcement family. He was raised with guns.

IT IS TIME FOR THE VIOLENT RHETORIC AND THREATS OF FUTURE VIOLENCE TO END.

MSNBC firing Matthew Dowd for speaking the truth about Charlie Kirk is inexcusable. What is happening to the media that they bow to Trump and his regime. Where is free speech? I think it was once a right in the constitution but not sure now.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory?

Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

Very reminiscent of Kate Gate.

Senate Democrats’ Abandonment of Adeel Mangi Made Emil Bove’s Confirmation Possible Senate Democrats could have confirmed Biden nominee Adeel Mangi to the Third Circuit last year. They caved to a disgraceful right-wing smear campaign instead.

The lesson for Democrats of the last four years is that if you don't use power when you have it, your opponents will happily use it instead

Hard to convince younger generations, but for decades, Republicans went on and on about how two of the worst things imaginable were (1) state intervention in the market and (2) DC using federal troops against US states; both so bad the people should be ready for armed rebellion in case it happens.

"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked carl sagan and he said the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge 🧪

We're racing towards fascism in America. People who tell you to calm down or still do a "both sides" framing should be ignored moving forward. Don't even waste your time with them. Organize and resist. Local, state, national level.

The more they tell us to stop talking about Epstein the more we need to talk about Epstein

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

I know that Medicare/ Medicaid is Democrats’ native language & what they’re happiest speaking but I’d love for SOME prominent person to try the line “they increased the debt limit by $5 trillion in order to triple size of ICE & make its detention center bigger than the whole federal prison system.”

I genuinely cannot believe how many Democrats are spending their energy on destroying Mamdani when the GOP is trying to turn ICE into a full on secret police by drastically raising their budget

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

@quigley.house.gov has some explaining to do as well!

Be warned: Trump will likely use his war with Iran as a pretext to further suppress dissent at home.

We must resist his efforts to stifle freedom of speech, make warrantless searches and arrests of Americans, and put more military onto our streets.

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands.

Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

It’s not hyperbole to say that the deaths in Minnesota are on the GOP’s hands. They’ve built this political environment and they’ve allowed a demagogue to spread hate. This is entirely on them.
