The ones telling you not to criticize Newsom are the ones engaging in purity politics.

We don’t have to support every candidate with a D next to their name. Many of them are terrible.

In a democracy, we ask questions, we criticize. If necessary, we destroy.

It’s called a primary.

Game on.

NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality.

Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:
For ICE to build concentration camps quickly, they're leaning on this Dept. of War program
WEXMAC TITUS helps contractors bypass the traditionally lengthy government contract bidding process

James Talarico: “This is the party that ran against cancel culture, and now they are trying to control what we watch, what we say, and what we read.

This is the most dangerous kind of cancel culture — the kind that comes from the top."

In December, Democrats pulled off an overperformance of 14 points (compared to 2024) to flip a GOP-held legislative seat (Trump +13) in Georgia.

Tonight, the legislative special in Georgia is for a much redder seat (+23 Trump, per @the-downballot.com). Let's see where the swing ends up on this one.

My advice to podcasters is to mispronounce EVERY name. Because if you're generally diligent but mispronounce one or two, you're going to get emails from people who think they're helping you maintain your high standards. The key is to make it clear that you have no standards at all.

Let me tell you about the SAVE Act. You need to know about it.

It’s Trump’s first (of likely many) major attempt to rig the election in his favor. It takes away the right to vote for millions and allows your voting records to be erased. We cannot let it pass the Senate.

Your regular reminder that since August of last year, Mr. Abrego has agreed to be deported to Costa Rica, but the Trump admin refuses to do so because they want to instead punish him by sending him to an African country that will most likely detain and then deport him to El Salvador for the admin.
