I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader.

We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

Booker's off-hand reference to the quantum computing race is one of those things that no one really talks about but is a massive, earth-shattering issue.

It's a bit more complicated than this, but the concern is: whoever wins that race can probably break everyone else's encryption on…everything.

Called my senators and told them I’m listening to Cory Booker and we need more of this! Sand in the gears until the money allocated by congress is legally spent as intended and the executive follows the laws of this country. #corybooker #keepgoingcory

I know many of you already know this, but it bears repeating: Trump is using the state to carry out one of the most white supremacist projects of our time—gutting DEI, deporting brown folks without due process, backing white Afrikaner grievance, etc.

We must name it.

Capitulation is complicity.

Here is the head of ICE saying they are determining whether or not they think someone is a gang member or a terrorist based on, for instance, their social media posts, and then DEPORTING THEM without due process.

This is fascism. Stop debating it. We're there.
REPORTER: How do you determine whether somebody is a gang member? What criteria do you use?

The share of Americans employed by the government steeply dropped in the decades leading up to 2000, and has remained essentially flat since. A bloating federal workforce is a myth.

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis.

This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day.
