I heard some old friends at Pod Save America were in town, so I decided to stop by. As we saw this week, we can change this country for the better. But it’s going to take all of us getting organized and having honest conversations about the best way forward.

So, shitty day!
I’m pissed, but mostly I’m just sad for the millions of people who will suffer because of what Republicans did today.
Many, if not most, are Trump voters. And most probably have no idea what this law will actually mean for them.

This is even more hopeful than you might think - on today’s very timely @podsaveamerica.crooked.com, I talk to @chenoweth.bsky.social about their 3.5% rule - the finding that nonviolent protest movements haven’t failed when 3.5% of the country is engaged.
One of the best convos I’ve had this year
One of the best convos I’ve had this year
Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

"No Kings Day" protests turn out millions
Our unofficial estimate is that around 4 million people attended a protest event yesterday. Anti-Trump resistance is outpacing 2017.

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.
