DJT is clearly working with Russia, and against Ukraine, Europe, and international order. Money above everything.

My law firm is currently litigating 61 voting and election cases, including 12 redistricting cases. We have four cases in one stage or another before the Supreme Court.

These cases — and others like them —
will play a pivotal role in whether we have free and fair elections in 2026 and 2028.

Trump & Co won't willingly release any of the Epstein files that damage DJT. They must have a plan to hide the info on Trump's actions.
Good thing there are many other possible sources of information, 'cause I predict anything the DoJ releases will be Trump-sanitized.

Respect and authenticity. For all people. For all life. For the rockt, the water, the air. For ancestors and our history, for the future we carry.
Authenticity is brave and simple. You create a space for growth and fruitful interaction.
Good stuff.

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!

Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

When a judge makes a ruling, it's not a personal belief. It's about the laws of the land and what the law says. Laws are made by representatives of the US people. Laws may be new, or may be centuries old but remember - a court ruling ISN'T one judge talking, it is an entire nation.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Guard mid-term elections. The Trump crew must know they won't win a fair election. Work against extreme gerrymandering, stripping of voter rolls, troops at polling places. And we need tech geniuses to be sure the electronics used to tally and communicate results are not corrupt.
Keep it honest.

What contributes to the greatest moral distress among practicing physicians?

-Excessive documentation requirements
-Feeling betrayed by a health system
-Excessive administrative burdens
-Financial goals of a healthcare institution’s conflicting with a physicians desire to provide quality care

Step back on the gov't shutdown. Republican leaders knew from Day 1 that they would need Dem votes in the Senate on this bill. They shut Dems out from the House bill. They refuse to negotiate in the Senate. The House is on an extended vacation. Either GOP incompetence. Or deliberate cruelty.

Maybe they should watch Russell Crowe’s new Nuremberg movie when it comes out next week. Just some helpful advice.

This must be changed.
Rule of Law Alert: Trump’s authority for country-specific tariffs comes from the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which doesn’t mention tariffs—but does require a national emergency.

An ad showing that Reagan opposed tariffs surely is not a national emergency. (It may be a personal one)

The Trump administration has gutted human rights offices, fired thousands of watchdogs, and forced media companies to install government “bias monitors.” If this isn’t McCarthyism 2.0, what is?

Great Chris Murphy quote from our interview:

"I would be a sucker to agree to a budget that literally funds an operation to hunt me and my allies down—to imprison us, harass us, intimidate us. If you want our votes, it can’t be for rampant lawlessness."

Tons more like that all throughout:
Everyone should listen to Chris Murphy's extraordinary warning about Trump on our pod. First, he says the logic must be that the more lawless he gets, the stiffer the resistance.

"If I give in and consent to these kinds of tactics then it just normalizes it all." 1/

There was a time when we all understood that a police raid in the middle of the night was the hallmark of a authoritarian regime.

Being declared winner in the 2024 US Presidential contest does not give a person the right to break the law or act illegally. No matter what your campaign slogans were. No matter what the financial backers say. No matter what Project 2025 prescribes.
You are not given the OK to break the law.
