Our Democratic leaders are not meeting the moment. This is what Democrats need to do to win and -- more importantly -- rebuild a broad-based coalition that doesn't rely just on being anti-Trump.

Wake up, Democrats. Trump is about to effectively control TikTok, Twitter, CBS, Comedy Central and most likely CNN, HBO and two major movie studios. Where is our leadership to warn these media companies about consequences once we regain the WH?

The question is not whether Bush sees what Trump is. Of course he does. Bush may have misjudged Vladimir Putin’s soul, but he is not blind to the fact that Trump has no respect for our constitution, its norms, or our closest allies. The question is why Bush won’t say it out loud.

I miss when you could post Brave Norman Rockwell Townsperson and the caption could be, like, “R.E.M was wrong to leave ‘Fretless’ off of Out of Time” instead of “The secret police should stop murdering people.”

So many lessons for the national Dem party in the results in NJ-11. A good day for progressive candidates, a bad day for party bosses and a terrible day for AIPAC, whose decision to go all-in against a pro-Israel candidate for reasons that make no sense backfired spectacularly.

These pilots are wonderful but the expression on this little boy's face tells the tale. The damage our government did to him is incalculable. No amount of kindness from strangers can make up being ripped away from his mother and being used as bait to set up his father.

This little boy has become an inadvertent symbol of resistance
A reminder of why we fight
What ICE did to this child was wrong.
May the kindness he receives today help heal the damage.
