To the 31 House Democrats who voted with Trump: I would never vote to disenfranchise your constituents, undermine their democratic rights, or impose harsher penalties on them against their will. Regrettably, you have done exactly that to my constituents and legislative body. Shame 😪
Today 31 Democrats chose to side with Donald Trump over DC.
We did not ask for this. It will not make us safer. And fueling this fascist president's agenda is dangerous for our entire country. (🧵)

www.vox.com/features/239... This was a great piece. I also love motherhood, but a combination of wealth, privilege, luck & public policy choices have made it much more manageable & enjoyable for me than it is for many. I truly believe this is largely a public policy problem we must urgently address.

This is a full bore attack on the administrative state. Independent agencies are an important tool for governing our nation and they are truly at risk. We all benefit from having a functional gov't in this country, even Facebook. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

My thoughts from week one of #USvGoogle!
I'm spending a lot of time this week watching #USvGoogle. Due to court confidentiality rules you can only watch in person at the courthouse, so I am not watching absolutely everything. Here's the piece I wrote before the trial.
Hope to write an update soon based on what we've seen so far!

Fun baseball fact: in the '94-'95 players strike, the Orioles owner, a union lawyer, was the only team owner to refuse to field scab players. Facing a $250,000 fine for every game missed, he was prepared to forfeit every game.
