He was humiliated last weekend. This weekend he bombed someone.

My guess is there is a relationship between those two events.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrow’s light.

Absolutely proud of you all! HUG! So far, 3.1 million protesters counted today — that’s nearly 1% of the U.S. population! Photos are flooding social media everywhere. Still waiting on more numbers to come in.

It has been two weeks since a Georgia woman was arrested for her miscarriage, and not one major national outlet has covered the story

MSNBC just showed a montage of world leaders calling the USA idiotic, illogical, hostile, unhinged.... literally never seen anything like this. From the shining city on a hill to an object of global derision and contempt.

Hold Hearings: Expose the Sabotage of Elon Musk and “DOGE”
Text SIGN PQOQVH to 50409 — I’m writing today to urge you in the strongest possible terms to schedule hearings surrounding the so-called "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE). The completely opaque nature of their tampering with PII and sensitive data raises many red flags. Just who are these people working for? Elon Musk's involvement and the Trump administration's attempts to evade all oversight raise serious questions about potential conflicts of interest, undue influence from special interests, and threats to Americans' privacy and civil liberties. Only criminals hide their activities. Only criminals or wantonly incompetent officials evade hearings and transparency about what they are actually doing. DOGE has carried out sweeping personnel changes and policy shifts across the federal government, yet the public remains in the dark about its structure, leadership, and the full scope of its work. The administration's evasive and contradictory statements about Musk's role and authority, efforts to shield records from public disclosure, and use of non-governmental communication platforms all undermine principles of open government. This blatant lack of cooperation prevents proper scrutiny of DOGE's actions, which have widespread implications for government services, programs, and citizen data. The public deserves clear answers about who exactly is directing DOGE's agenda, what interests they represent, and what access they have to sensitive personal information. To uphold democratic accountability, Congress must hold PUBLIC hearings, and witnesses must be held accountable. At this point they must be compelled to disclosure detailed records related to DOGE's formation, leadership, operations, and efforts to gain access to confidential data. Thorough congressional oversight is essential to understand the forces driving DOGE's assault on the federal workforce and civic institutions. The American people have a right to this information. Call for hearings. Now. Issue Subpoenas to the hackers we want to see and hear these miscreants. Thank you.

We need this energy from alllll of the Democrats! Thank you to @booker.senate.gov for getting started 👏🏻🔥
I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

The decisive test of our society in my lifetime was the 2024 election and our failure was spectacular and total. I will never again have any faith in the American electorate to do the obviously right thing.

Mike has been a friend of mine since we were young reporters at the @washingtonpost.com in the 1980s. He brims with talent, integrity and commitment to the truth. This is exactly what I expected and he had hoped he could stave off, which is a trash move by trash people. Throw them out.

AOC says today is the showdown. Don’t let them cave. Blow up your Democratic Senator’s phone lines. Urge them to vote NO on cloture (ending a filibuster) and NO on the Republican spending bill.
5calls.org for the number.
