“These anomalies didn’t happen nationwide. They didn’t even happen across all voting methods—this just doesn’t reflect human voting behavior.”

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

If anyone didn't realize this, the actions of ICE in Providence yesterday sure clarified it. Bizarre to see a judge treated so poorly.
ICE agents don’t view themselves as bound by law, and we have neither democracy nor law if they never face justice and accountability.

You know what helps people be less poor? Giving them money. Every. Single. Time.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Trump's National Guard deployments have cost over $473 MILLION.
A disgusting misuse of federal resources, taxpayer dollars, and US troops’ service.
Doing this while firing federal workers and kicking millions off of healthcare is just the cherry on top of the dumpster fire that is the Trump admin.

Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.
He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.
