Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. loved America. He loved our country so much that he dedicated his life — and in the end, his life was taken — in a fight for our nation's highest ideal: Freedom.
Alex and tens of thousands of Minnesotans have boldly defended their neighbors against the murderous occupation of an American city by the federal government. I am enraged and heartbroken for Alex, his family, Minneapolis, and America.
Alex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. His life, through his profession, was dedicated to serving his community and our country.
As so many have now seen on video, his final act before he was killed by federal agents was doing everything in his power to protect his community.
Does anyone have any idea how we break the echo chambers? No Trump voter in my family will ever know what actually happened to Alex Pretti or Renee Good. They will believe the officers were justified. They will watch Fox News and that will be the end of it.
We can debate the appropriate level of enforcement of immigration, but we are in Fabric Of Society territory here.

They lived, worked, served—and hundreds of them gave their lives—side by side with American troops. Anyone who served in Afghanistan knows how much this mattered, and we will never forget.

Tommy Vietor: Trump has chipped away at media independence. He controls who can cover White House events and now questions are like the MyPillow podcast asking how are you so great.
Gavin Newsom just announced that California will be the first state to join the World Health Organization.
This is in direct defiance of Donald Trump, who just pulled the United States out of the organization.
🚨 @robertgarcia.bsky.social: "We've been waiting for Comer to get the [Epstein] subpoena out. Of course, Republicans didn't want to do this, but we forced that vote. And now the subpoena is out. The full files, any documents, anything that the DOJ has - we are now going to be in possession of it."
As I said to @petebuttigieg.bsky.social, Trump is running scared. Texans didn't vote for him to kick 17M Americans off their health care, and he knows it.
Instead of facing voters, he’s trying to rig the '26 election by manipulating the maps.

A thing I think we miss is that the “authoritarian playbook” isn’t a set of instructions authoritarians are reading from, it’s just a list of things that happen when narcissists get too much power.
